smh810 Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 Oklahoma is getting KILLED in the early going 13-2 Utah 3:00 minutes in
Damaramu Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 I'm not really reacting. I figured they would find a way to screw it up in basketball. They ALWAYS do. I'm more angry over my bracket. It's already torn to shit but if OU loses I lose an Elite 8 team. Damn glad I didn't play money or I'd be broke.
Guest Smues Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 Yay Gonzaga lost. Boo that means I'll have to avoid the local news for a few days. At least this should shut up the whining around here about UW getting a higher seed then Gonzaga. They think Zaga deserved it over UW? Of course, the Gonzaga bandwagon is crazy here. I don't know if anyone honestly thought that Gonzaga deserved a #1 seed, but they all think Gonzaga should have had a better seed then Washington. The only reasoning I've heard on the issue is 'Gonzaga beat Washington this year, so they should have gotten the higher seed!'
Damaramu Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 Well OU's playing shitty offense. But at least they're finally getting after it on defense.
Damaramu Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 I think Bookout may be stronger than Bogut. He's sure as hell shoving him around in there.
Damaramu Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 Man if OU could shoot for shit they'd be running away with this game. If OU can figure out how to shoot and Utah can't figure out how to protect the b-ball then OU will win.
Damaramu Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 Eh whatever.....they're done playing good defense. Back to shitty fouls and shitty shooting.
mike546 Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 God damn the Zags for blowing it, theres goes another sweet 16 team. Although, I have Utah over Oklahomoa, so thats good news.
Vern Gagne Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 I should of trusted my instincts and stayed with Texas Tech. Gonzaga's shown with any expecatations they haven't been able to get the job done in the tournament.
smh810 Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 Looks like some OU fan pulled the fire alarm.
Vern Gagne Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 That gives Utah rest as well. Good news is I had Utah winning in my money bracket. I really hope we see Washington and Wake Forest in the Elite 8. That would be a hellafun game to watch.
iggymcfly Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 Today's off to a really bad start for me. I had both Gonzaga and Oklahoma in the Elite 8, and then since I had Pitt in the UW/Pacific game, I put $10 on Pacific to have a rooting interest there. Well, every single one of those went wrong for me. Hopefully, at least Boston College will win and cover, because I put the last $30 in my gambling account on them, and they're one of the few Sweet 16 teams I have left that wasn't picked by everyone else in the country.
Vern Gagne Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 I can't help but notice the Austin bracket is very weak.
iggymcfly Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 I noticed that immediately. I remember saying that it looked like Duke had a "free ride" to the Final Four.
Damaramu Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 Duke's bracket weak!? No I'm shocked.....SHOCKED I SAY!
Vern Gagne Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 Too bad Syracuse lost. They're probably the only team good enough offensively to beat Duke.
Bored Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 Call me crazy but I think Mississippi State might pull off the upset. They are finally at full strength.
Guest Smues Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 After watching the offensive explosion that was the UW/Pacific game, this Utah/OK game is like watching paint dry.
Damaramu Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 *yawn* I knew that OU would choke it. They always do in b-ball. Just didn't know they would choke this early. I'm not mad they're losing. I'm just frustrated they keep committing dumbass fouls. Morons. Besides we're young. Next year is the year that we at least go to the Sweet 16. I think with everyone graduating players everywhere else in the Big XII then OU can run away with the conference. Oh well. With my team out of the tourney now I can sit back and enjoy the rest of the tourney.
Vern Gagne Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 Call me crazy but I think Mississippi State might pull off the upset. They are finally at full strength. I wouldn't be suprised. Miss. St.'s underachieved all season, and certainly is talented enough to beat Duke.
Damaramu Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 With Syracuse out and if Duke were to go out....then who would come from that region for the Final Four? Kentucky?
Guest Shadow Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 With Syracuse out and if Duke were to go out....then who would come from that region for the Final Four? Kentucky? Cincinnati. hopeful wishing.
Crimson Platypus Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 Michigan State fools. -edit- No.. I don't really think that
Damaramu Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 Well someone besides Duke. I don't care if it's Mississippi State or Utah or Michigan State, or Cincy, or whoever. Just not Duke.
iggymcfly Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 Actually, if Duke were to lose to Mississippi State, I'd say that Vermont would have a legit shot. They're not losing of course, but IF they did, UVM would be in good shape.
mike546 Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 The whole Duke bracket was hard to pick. I just *can't* see Duke getting to the final four, but there is no other team that looks strong enough to get to the final four, especially now Cuse is out.
2GOLD Posted March 20, 2005 Report Posted March 20, 2005 UWM is about to knock off BC, meaning we will have at least one 12 seed or lower in the Sweet Sixteen. Make it official, UW-Milwaukee has defeated BC 83-75. So much for Boston College "playing to earn respect".
mike546 Posted March 20, 2005 Report Posted March 20, 2005 GOD DAMNIT. I hate B.C, but not enough to not be pissed that they messed up my bracket. I'll be 4/6 today after the Zona game goes final.
