Re: NCAA Tournament - General Discussion
Yeah SH pissed that game away they kept turning it over in the last 2 minutes then the bonehead flagrant foul. Tough to make that call there but the player should know better and not leave it up to the ref

Seen some very foolish mistakes at the end of some games.
Whatever happens today, I hope none of our kids have to live with one of these things.

Yeah that Vandy kid fouling yesterday when they had the lead or game tied was one of the worst bonehead moves I have seen

Re: NCAA Tournament - General Discussion
Oregon toyed with Iona.
Altman played a lot of non starters midway through
the second half, until Iona started raining 3's and
Oregon was seeing its 27 point lead dwindle.
Guess you can never take your peddle off the metal.
Baylor came from behind at half to blow out
New Mexico State.
They have so much talent, but seem to have
no respect for protecting the ball.
Watching us warm up.
Geez, Laysard is a big boy!

South Carolina destroying Marquette.
Guess that leaves Villanova and Xavier from the Big East.
Chris Silva is just a role player on SC.
Was in foul trouble tonight.
Their guard Thornwell is a super player.

Re: NCAA Tournament - General Discussion
#1 overall seed Villanova goes down to Wisconsin 65-62. Five of the seven Big East teams are already out with four losing their first game. League is 3-5 thus far. Was the conference overrated this year? Sports Illustrated appears to think so as it had an interesting take that the league greatly benefited from the injuries at X and Creighton to get so many teams in, many with undeserved seeds.

Re: NCAA Tournament - General Discussion
Wow I don't know if the refs stay the same through both evening games at each venue but...
First the Gonzaga player reaches up through the cylinder to block the Northwestern player's shot in the first game, then calls Collins for a Tech when he accurately says wtf.
Then in the nightcap in the same location the Saint Mary's player gets pushed while chasing an offensive rebound but gets called for the foul himself!
Both teams were a little behind, no guarantee they could come back but I hate to see these blatant misses. That's my only concern tomorrow, fairly or unfairly, the bias for the better seeds can be palpable in these games. Hopefully this is an isolated crew and our crew calls it down the middle tomorrow.

The midwest regional is tough. Iowa State can hang with anyone too that was a real good game last night. Swanigan could give Kansas some trouble, assuming they beat Mich St.

Their players are pretty classless and that stems from the head coach who has no soul.

Mitchell sticking his tongue out and clapping in the face of Watson would be a T on any other team.
And Louisville always seems to be allowed to play more aggressively than any other team.

So if we win bring on the Michigan Wolverines
I am ok with that as Pitino usually wins in sweet 16 he is 12-1 I think , we take our chance with the Michiganders

Interesting fact about the 2017 NCAA Tournament
EIGHT schools that have played in the A-10 received bids. Problem for the league is that five of them are no longer members (Xavier/Butler/Va Tech/WVU/Villanova).

We should still be in it.....and wait for it, there will be more bad officiating that will cost someone big time.

Re: NCAA Tournament - General Discussion
Wow WVU just had a URI-esque finish to the game with those last 3 shots from deep.
Over 30 seconds and down 3?
I would like for us to adopt a strategy that looks for 2 point shots if we are within a certain couple points and enough time is left. Puts the pressure on the other team.

Carter was so determined to be the guy and hit a game tying 3-pointer that he got 3 different chances in 30 seconds and hit the rim once.

Hope the NCAA is happy, they will have their Kansas-Oregon matchup with the punk Dillon Brook's puss all over TV.
I never root for Kansas. I will on Saturday. Well as long as they win tonight that is.
