Well.....none of these higher seeds are really getting after it. None of them except maybe Illinois and UNC are playing inspired basketball. You'd think they will all pick it up in the 2nd round.

Louisville is only up 3 and Syracuse is trailing to those fucking Howard Dean hippies this isnt good.

You've got to be kidding. Illinois trailed in the second half against Fairleigh Dickinson. They probably looked worse in the first round than any of the top-level teams.

Oh I didn't watch that game. I thought they pulled away. Well if the first round is any indication then UNC will run away with it.

 

And TECHNICAL!? BULLSHIT! That is a fucking bullshit call! Fuck these refs!

I was thinking, there's something about having an easy road that helps a team stay rested and play well throughout the tournament. Both UConn and GT had a lot of easy games early last year.

 

With that being said, it would be really nice if Georgia Tech got to play Lafayette and then Pacific before facing Gonzaga. Who knows, with that road, maybe they'll get lucky and knock off Illinois.

GT will not make the Final Four.

Wake, OSU, or Illinois will handle them.

And fuck the ref's in this Syracuse/Vermont game.

[iggymcfly 0]

No, I remembered it. I even put $40 on the money line, so that when Georgia Tech wins, I'll make like $15 on the bet.

The OSU/Illinois winner would play Tech in the Final Four. Georgia Tech's toughest game in getting to the Final Four will likely be against Gonzaga.

Fuck, Syracuse, DO NOT LOSE.

 

I have them in the final four, because I just can't see three ACC teams.

[Guest Shadow]

i have or rather, HAD syracuse WINNING in one of them.

 

as for now, go bearcats or go whoever is the lowest seed left.

If Syracuse loses, my local tv station will have a heart attack.

[Guest Shadow]

why does cbs insist on having the closed captioning OVER the scoreboard on top?

[Guest Shadow]

If anyone lives around here, You'd think UK/UC was for the NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP OF ALL TIME.

 

The area is litterally going more nuts for this then almost nething i've ever witnessed, including sb's and world series.

Come on Vermont! This would be huge for my brackets.

Uhhh, you mean Vermont?

The pathetic thing about the DSU/Duke game is if DSU would have hit even half their shots lately, they would be beating Duke.

 

5 missed lay-ups, I mean...lay-ups.

 

IF they just make LAY-UPS, they would be much closer. Duke isn't beating Delaware State, Delaware State is beating Delaware State. And that is damn pathetic that Duke needs DSU to beat themselves.

GO CATAMOUNTS!

[Guest Shadow]

[Guest Shadow]

Syracuse catches a big break there, 3.1 left with the game tied

[iggymcfly 0]

This Syracuse/Vermont game doesn't really affect my bracket at all, and I didn't bet on it or anything, but I really hope Vermont wins. There hasn't been a good upset all year, and I really like this Vermont team a lot.

McNamara drops the F-bomb. Excellent.

[mike546 0]

Man, the Vermont player with the rug on his head looked scared shitless on that last possesion. He was like trembling when he made that pass.

 

Oh, and fuck you MaCnamara. Why must you choke in EVERY big game?

I am stuck with Northern Iowa/Wisconsin. The Louisville game can't be any worse than that. Then again, it did allow me to see N. Iowa royally fuck up an alley oop, but it is not like a game I really want to see when another game is close with 15 seconds to go.

[mike546 0]

HOLY SHIT!

 

What a three!

[iggymcfly 0]

What a shot by Sorrentine!

 

He was about ten feet beyond the arc, and he just dribbled the clock down, knowing the defender wouldn't guard him from that far. That's just beautiful.
