NCAA Men's BBall Tourney DAY ONE!

Recommended Posts

Guest Jimbo

so...when are we gonna get some real upsets? This year has almost been predictable so far.

 

....although I'm doing poorly in the brackets. I'm kicking myself for picking Florida (just to be different)...

:lol: @ so called experts predicting Murray St over Illinois. That ETSU-Cincy was pretty entertaining especially Tim Smith, he went into Iverson mode on Cincy, but Bobbit's 3pt shot gave Cincy the win.

Guest Smell the ratings!!!

I know Florida has no chance of not getting beat by 20, but watching them hang with Kentucky for a few minutes has been highly entertaining.

Richmond is leading Wisconsin by 3 witha minute left in the first half.

 

....and this is after going FG-less for 6 minutes.

 

Providence is also getting manhandled by Pacific, down by 7 with a fwe minutes left in the first half as well.

 

Shall we finally see some upsets? Let's hope not, otherwise my, and other people's brackets will be fuuucked :(

I know there's little chance of it happening, and it would completely wreck my Midwest bracket, but I hope Florida A&M pulls it out over Kentucky.

 

The reality of seeing a 16 finally beat a 1 (and the 'overall' 1 seed, especially) would be really, really great.

what the fuck Wisconsin?...

Over-rated! Over-rated!

 

The Big 10 was garbage this year. I have no idea why Wisconsin was getting all this hype as a "Final Four darkhouse" and such. They deserved the 6 seed they got.

Bleh, Wisconsin is solid, but they depend on Devin Harris too much, and when he's playing poorly as he is tonight, they don't do so well.

 

But you're right, the Big 10 was garbage this past year. But it should be better next year. Michigan, MSU, Minesota, and Indiana all will be much better.

I've jobbed Six Games.

 

And Amazingly, Fucking mole has only jobbed 2 teams but one was a Sweet 16 team...I've lost NONE of those yet.

 

I'm not happy about this as the defending champion here.

X Vs 'Ville is a big game for me, for obvious reasons but X isn't off to a great showing.

I guess I should be excited about Pacific since I live in the city where the school is located but I honestly can't name one player on the team.

 

Washington/UAB game is great. All offense, no defense. The way basketball should be. Damn outside shot that both team get to 100 at the current pace.

Basketball shouldn't have Defense?

 

Go watch street ball then. I like Defense in my Basketball damn it.

If you want slow down basketball with 55-50 scores in college and 70-65 scores in the NBA then be my guest. I should clarify by saying some defense (gambling, pressure defense to force turnovers for easy baskets) and teams that actually know how to run a fast break.

 

I love a great pitcher's duel in baseball, can apperciate a defensive struggle in football, but basketball needs to be wide open. Go watch some 80's NBA on ESPN Classic and you'll see real basketball not this over coached, walk it up the floor every posessesion crap.

 

53-51 Washington at the half.

I don't watch during the season, but if college basketball is always like this, I'm starting to understand why high school kids keep getting drafted.
