Annual Big10 Choke Thread

[KingAG]

It’s coming

 

[Marat]

DOWN goes the b10 champ Iowa.

 

[Hi-Low]

bump...one of these threads should suffice.

 

[BugsyCT]

A lot of the talking heads had Iowa as a FF pick. Didn't really understand it at the time and now it looks real bad for them. Stronger teams in that region (KU, Auburn,etc.).

DOWN goes the b10 champ Iowa.

Certainly not the B1G team one I figured. And certainly not good news for my bracket.

 

[Alibi Ike]

Michigan faces a very good (3) Tennessee team Saturday. Early line Tennessee favored by 5.5 points.

 

[Jimdish255]

Will be very hard to do since they Murray State and Purdue cannot play each other in round 2

Then it will be Round 3 after they beat Kentucky. Book both!

 

[BugsyCT]

 

[UconnFanDC]

Well Golden Eagles sure looked bad

 

[87Xfer]

so peecee's luck continues

 

[tzznandrew]

The B10 is off to a great start lmao. Choke job circa 2022. I can’t wait

This monstrosity is your fault.

Worry about your own team rather than crapping on other leagues. Two years in a row we dunk on the B10 and then look like losers on TV.

 

[UconnFanDC]

So let's stop worrying about the Big 10 for now until we looking like we'll advance. (Holds head)

[tzznandrew]

Don't talk about the B10 until we win a game. This is an embarassment.

 

[polycom]

If UConn loses in the first round, I'm blaming this thread.

I don’t often say delete your account but you may want to start over after this.

I can’t even

[PNolanFan]

I have been holding my big 10 is a joke texts to myself... was planning on sending them out after our game but sad to see not everyone had my prudence

 

[jibsey]

Stop the thread please

 

[storrsroars]

When your opponent averages 32.6% (Allen is only 32.7$) and manage to go 64.7% against you... you pretty much have to do everything right in response. And we didn't.

Because we have Sanogo and they didn’t ;-)

Take me to the town center and burn me at the stakes. It is deserved. (Walks away in shame)

Just lay it on me August. Though I wasn’t calling them lucky. Just overrated. But I guess we were even more so than them in the end.

Which team is in the second round? UConn or PC? I forget?

NMSU is butt and they beat us. SDSU is actually good but PC beat them. We need to shut up and win before we start talking trash.

We were splashing our faces with champagne and saying "We're here" when we came in third and lost in the semis. It's embarassing.

Meh. Ish happens in one game. We were clearly better than them, but they executed better and made the shots. Tip your cap. It happens sometimes. UConn lost to San Diego in a 4-13 one year...didn't make them overrated. They went to the Final Four the next year. This was a Top 20 team with a very good defense but a poor offense, and nothing about what happened today changed that. Just a terrible first half and some late lapses.

Disappointing end to a good season. Things are still pointing up despite the board's meltdown and this (genuine) embarassment.

Then it will be Round 3 after they beat Kentucky. Book both!

Update - after Murray State beats St. Petes down goes Purdue.

 

[Jimdish255]

Duke, Mich State and Illinois might as well have hand-picked their matchups for today. Incredibly favorable for them. Looks like 3 wins there.

Loyola-OSU playing as futile offense as has been seen in the Tourney since the 2011 NC. 23-18 OSU at halftime. However, glad Sanogo never had to face Liddell. Dude playing some serious D in this one.

B1G 7-3 round one.

This thread is aging like wet socks.
