Damaramu 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2005 You know I'm upset that my favorites are getting eliminated and what not. But then again I'm excited that so many teams are coming on strong and teams are coming out of nowhere to whip ass. Hopefully the Final Four won't be the same old "2 ACC teams, Big East team, and Big XII team" that it always is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mike546 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2005 Ugh, what a pathetic first half. UConn would be up by double digets if they didn't freaking have so many turnovers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't worry, it won't--the Big XII isn't going to have a team in there. I still have OSU going all the way. They are probably far and away the best team in the Big XII. And they are the only team in that bracket that can beat Illinois which they can do. Kansas was full of guys with senior-itis that I guess thought they could just win games b/c of who they are and no actual hard work. Tech and ISU are decent but not good enough. Texas sucked. And OU was good when they're on but when they're off......oh boy they suck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mike546 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2005 I just realized WHY UConn is having so much trouble. Everybody beside Marcus Williams has NO idea what to do. EDIT: UConns not winning this game. I was blinded by it by bias, but there just clueless out there, and got by UCF on pure talent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bored 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2005 Fun fact, since the tournament expanded to 64 teams in 1985, coming into this year, #10 seed beat the #7 seed 40% of the time (32-48). But when the #10 seed has played the #2 seed in the second round they have won 44.8% of the time (13-16). It's strange as even though the #7 seed advances 60% of the time in the first round they only beat the #2 seed 25.5% of the time (12-35), although West Virginia did pull it off last night.

Exslade ZX 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2005 These upsets are getting old Heh..but it's gonna be great/weird when the Final four is like a 10 seed, 14 seed, 8 seed, and 11 seed or something crazy like that. Although that won't happen because Duke's getting in. >_> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Damaramu 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2005 Yes HAHA! My upset came true! and the ACC isn't taking shit over. I have to think up a new final four though. May be something like OSU, UW, UNC, and Kentucky or some other surprise team out of that bracket b/c it sucks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mike546 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2005 Well, it was a great season. I kinda knew they were struggling, but I put it behind me for the fact I see ESPN announcers everyday telling me they've got a chance to win the whole thing. Realistically, there really young. If they all come back, I honestly see them being a dominant team next year. Oh, and major props to Marcus Williams. The guy was flat out amazing today, and carried the team on his shoulders. His progression from the first game to today is amazing. I REALLY hope they all come back next year, they'll dominate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vern Gagne 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2005 These upsets are getting old Couldn't agree with you more. This is gonna come back to bite the tourney in the ass, when North Carolina or Illinois gets to play some #4. seed in the Championship game, and wins easily.

smh810 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2005 Damn it Nova is playing great defense and the Gators forgot how to play D since halfway through the second half against Ohio. I will admit to underrating Nova defensively. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mike546 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2005 Still that was a clear offensive foul by NC State with a minute left that led to that 3. True. And there were a ton of HORRIBLE calls on out of bounds calls. Atleast three. But it doesn't matter, UConn played lazy, stupid, and retarded for too long in the 2nd half. Same thing happened in the 1st game, this time it bit them in the ass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Evolution Report post Posted March 20, 2005 Happy about Villanova winning since I need something good to happen to my bracket, very unhappy about OSU losing since I actually had them going to the championship game and losing to UNC, don't really care about Vermont and Michigan State, and I don't really like how close Iowa State is hanging around with UNC.
