The early cheapo fouls on Tacko led to Duke runs.

Thats not the same play.

No way 2nd guy on the block gets that rebound right at the rim. Just doesn't happen. UCF player was already under the basket and RJ's arms were straight out in his back.

Its not about Tacko playing him man to man. Its about him playing secondary and protecting the rim. When Tacko was out early Zion was attacking. When Tacko was back in, Zion was shooting 3's. When Tacko was in foul trouble Zion was jumping right into him.

Nice back push by RJ

Refs need to call fouls on Tacko quick! Dook can't handle him.

Zion dropped his shoulder then RJ ran over a guy and Dook got their run.

And there you go, Tacko is out for the rest of the half.

And of course Tacko reaches out and gets called for a cheapy.

He didn't have 2 of his top 3 scorers. With Azubuike and Vick this team is 2x as good and a serious contender.

Iona has the Gist for hitting 3's.

Iona looking up to the challenge. Can they sustain, or wear out like NDSU? What I wouldn't give for an entitled blue blood to go down.

Caron sighting at UC Irvine game. Nice threads.

Wow, that might've been the worst first round game to bet the favorite. Iowa is a tough, tough 10 seed. He should've just put it all on 00.

Iowa's mental toughness > Cincy's physical toughness

Iowa v Cincy is very intriguing to me. Iowa beat us up with toughness (Cook), and Cincy is traditionally a tough team. Thought Iowa would've had a better season.

I thought the game really changed when FSU was up 27-19 and Tre Jones flopped on Kabengele for his 2nd. With Kabengele and Koumadje out (knee) the rest of the half Zion asserted himself.

Idk, FSU has some pretty big boys that can take Zion's bumps. I think they match up better.

I don't think UNC knew they were only down 1 or that they had a timeout. Twice. Pitiful. Lets go FSU.

Apparently Heavenly has a lot of OOB terrain that you can access from the lifts that take you down to the casinos. So no hiking required to access, accept maybe at the bottom to get out. I got into Kirkwood last night and there are 20' high walls each side of the road. Never seen anything...

I was fortuitous to catch rope drops at Mott and Killebrew Sunday. It seems the trails are left open as most locals wander out of bounds.

I watched 2 episodes ad thought, "oh no, not another Groundhog Day." I couldn't get into it. Is it worth it to keep going?

Following up on this conjecture. Despite not passing the eye test for me. He did pull down 10 rebounds against a superiorly athletic team. Cobb somehow had 0 bounds. Polley got more than Cobb?!?! Thats incredulous. I have to give Josh credit for that. His best feature tonight was drawing...

Watch the replay, you'll find that Carlton was getting punked out there. He was active though and squeezed a good number of bounds. But then again, I don't like IPA's, I like stouts, so what do I know? Double entendre intended.

Until the AAC gets 6 teams into the tourney. Ok, I digress, as that's never happening.

They always say a great shot blocker keeps the ball in play. In this case it was almost like Sid was rising up and looked at Tarin saying "I'm going to spike this into the court to bounce right into your hands". That was impressive.

That one softball pass CV lobbed up when under a minute was comedic for sure.

I'd be curious how many teams could lose their starting back court and still be competitive against the #9 team in the country. And we sucked even before we lost our back court!

Its not even that they are just not physically strong, they just don't have that killer instinct. Its almost like you wish you could inject rabies into them. The fight in the dog mantra. You might get by with 1 front court player like this, its tough to have both of them like this.

Yeah, Josh going 0-4 in the first few minutes really set the tone. He did great drawing fouls for once, but he forgot about the "free" part.

I was on campus early 2000's when the football team still played there and they could barely draw 3,000 people. When they proposed Rentschler I chuckled. Not disagreeing with you, but I could never wrap my head around that anomaly.

Kelvin was all over exploiting this. He did it to Carlton twice in the first 3 minutes. The third time Polley rotated over and just in time caught the driver. But it certainly needs to be looked into as the big men are getting caught out deep way too much. The post is vulnerable enough as it is.

You have to realize there is a disparity in fandom. My wife asked me the other day, "If you say they suck, then why do you watch every game?" I tell her its because I'm a true fan, I'm not just there when they win, I'm there when they lose. I take small victories. Josh slammed back an...

They played a tough first half and didn't get ran out the second half. If only not for that prototypical 2nd half start doldrum.

Hahaha, you show up, I'll buy you dinner. I'll be there 3/7 - 3/10. Graham is the one I booked with.
