Cincy, hopefully can pull win out for AAC

[gsmooth]

Cincy had a 13 pt lead early, but Iowa looks more in sync on offense even with Tyler Cook in foul trouble. They are opening up holes in Cincy's D with outside shooting, but Cincy's D is still hanging tough.

Cincy's O is getting good shots, hopefully they don't tighten up late (Broome just got and-1 as I am typing this). We all know how Cincy is in March unfortunately. Cincy needs to get their home crowd into this-the game is in Columbus.

AAC needs to get respect. Beside 2014, when Louisville and UConn went to the sweet 16 and won it all, respectfully that year, AAC has been underwhelming in NCAA tourney.

 

[gsmooth]

uh oh. Cincy down 6 with 1:42. Cold blooded 3 by Wieskamp as he had the shorter Justin Jenifer .

Iowa stepping on their throat

Fool me 14 times shame on me

 

[polycom]

You hopped wrong.

Cincy is in the process of laying yet another egg in March. Ya, they were probably under seeded, but even if they were, were given a 10 seed who was sliding quick.

Uconn needs to get back to their winning ways to teach the rest of the AAC how to win in March when it counts.

It’s doable, but not like that

Cincy has spit the bit again but we have been worse than them, much worse

 

[the Q]

Too many missed open looks and too many terrible shots

 

[Travelman6]

but we have been worse than them, much worse

Not denying that

 

[alexd]

We all know this is gsmooth's fault.

 

[UconnU]

AAC the bed so far. Not good.

 

[Drumguy]

I did not take them in the tournament. Talk about a team that underperforms.

[UChusky916]

Someone want to check on @kobe?

 

[6xChamps]

If Cincy deserved a 5 or 6 seed then did Iowa deserve a 4?

 

[Travelman6]

Someone want to check on @kobe?

From what I understand, he is not a big fan of the Mick?

 

[Dooley]

Death, taxes and our league's paper tigers losing in the first weekend. Rinse and repeat.

Our league DESPERATELY needs UConn to pull its March weight.

 

[John]

The Pitt of the AAC.

 

[FatElvis]

Poor Cincinnati. The inexplicable tournament performances continue.

 

[TJT]

Two AAC teams bow out in their first game. Temple loses to Belmont and now Cinci gets beat by Iowa. The league continues to struggle accumulating NCAA units in recent tournaments.

Our league DESPERATELY needs ANY team to pull its March weight.

 

[Scrutiner]

Cincinnati never fails to make the league look bad when on the big stage. The players change but the one constant is Cronin, so how much longer do they keep him if they aspire to get the P5 invite?

The announcer tried to be polite at the end by mentioning how much love the players showed for Cronin when Jennifer and Broome went to hug him. A cynic might say the team has developed that particular aspect of the player/coach relationship through their seven straight years of first or second round exits from the tournament.

How deep would the venom level be here if UConn went out that way every year?

 

[Travelman6]

OK, we still have Houston....They should win.....right? Because UCF....Not so sure now. 1-1 at best, no way they get within 20 of Duke.

 

[jibsey]

Houston beat us by 40, you would think they are very good. Of course we weren’t.
