Hawk 34 0 Report post Posted March 17, 2007 Xavier is not a bottom feeder team, but they're not a Sweet 16 team. Libing near both, I do realize the Atlantic 10 and Ivy League are bottom feeder conferences. OSU is missing lots of shots, and their overrated big man isn't hitting foul shots and is in foul trouble. Xavier is playing really well and obviously wants to win more than OSU does. "I had X in a couple brackets" See that's where I guess our perspectives change, because I don't believe in filling out more than one bracket, it's kinda cheap. However, I do realize that it's INTELLIGENT to fill out more than one to increase your money chances. Gambling on the tourney isn't a big deal to me, it's more about the fun of the tournament, and winning cash coming second. I got two brackets that matter. One at work and another at my old job. The rest were small office pools that I entered because I was asked too. The ones that matter? I picked OSU because I thought OSU would actually play harder. The two important ones are identical aside from final scores. The rest were for shits and giggles. If OSU loses? I'm happy. I had them out ahead of most people and X is a local school. Oh, man. X is done now. OSU has way to much momentum now. What a game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

UseTheSledgehammerUh 0 Report post Posted March 17, 2007 For what it's worth, I HATE Ohio State, I LOVE this game, OSU got away with a foul underneath, Oden got away with a flagrant foul crosscheck, and that 3 pointer was sick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edwin MacPhisto 0 Report post Posted March 17, 2007 That was a gorgeous icewater three, but really, they never should have had a shot at it with Oden's big-time flagrant. Great game overall, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iggymcfly 0 Report post Posted March 17, 2007 Fun tournament so far if a scary one. That's twice I've had one of my Final Four teams trailing double digits in the second half (this time it was my national champion) only to pull it out in the final seconds. Honestly, Xavier played the best basketball they were capable of playing today, they looked like a Top 10 team, and Ohio State still got the job done. I think that speaks volumes. Honestly, I feel more confident about OSU winning it all now than I did before the tip today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MFer 0 Report post Posted March 17, 2007 Man if Ohio State lost, all my brackets would have had to go into the fire. Just goes to show that the Buckeyes have players other than Oden and Conley. This should serve as a wake-up call to them. On a side note, Tommy Amaker got fired from Michigan. It's about damn time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cabbageboy 0 Report post Posted March 17, 2007 OSU isn't even going to survive one more round. This game exposed them six ways from Sunday. Next week Tennessee avenges the early season loss in Columbus by 2 points and puts these frauds out. I am so pissed at that game, I really am. Keep in mind I also saw that same bullshit finish in the Miss St. vs. UK SEC tourney game, with the bizarre lane violation and Miss St. hitting the 3 to tie. With that game I was baffled as to why UK simply didn't foul to prevent that 3, and in this game I am even more baffled. Seriously, I've seen that same stupid finish to about 5 games this year and not once has a coach learned from it. Not once. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Queen Leelee Report post Posted March 17, 2007 Grar, frustrating game. I want OSU to lose. I'm tired of the Oden hype, and it's so obvious he just wants to get this over with and get his millions in the NBA. Not that I blame him. Oh, well. Go Memphis!

Mecca 0 Report post Posted March 17, 2007 Flagrant or not..Xavier still had their 2 shots at the line to ice it and then didn't defend the guy shooting a 3, it's thier fault. Asking the refs to make a call that completely decides the game isn't right and they shouldn't do it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
