March 17 Non-UConn games thread

[wbball novice]

USF performance disappointing. But Quinnipiac - Miami riveting so far. Quinnipiac keeps making impossible shots.

Fargas at LSU has nowhere near the talent that Holly does at Tennessee. Not really a fair comparison IMO.

Well, that’s sort of the issue with the money LSU overpaid to get Farris from UCLA and she’s been sort of pathetic at a traditional WCBB power. She hasn’t recruited well so do we think she will be able to at Tenn? Maybe but maybe not.

OMG! Mercer was fouled on a three-point shot at the 3rd quarter buzzer. Officials looking at it...but looks like player got the shot off on time. Currently 52-45 game.

 

[LETTERL]

All three FT good...Georgia clinging to a 52-48 lead over Mercer, going to the 4th quarter.

That's why I really don't care if USF is in our bracket. They've never shown much in the tournament.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Offensive foul, knee to the gut. That was kinda brutal.

Exactly. There was so much whining about this. Much ado about nothing.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Same player from Quinnipiac took a knee to the nose earlier in the game. Not sure if it's coincidental or if Miami is kind of a dirty team.

 

[HawkHusky]

This Miami team is dirty. Sour grapes from 2 straight tourneys.

 

[iri10]

Hah, the commentator called the charge where she took a knee to the stomach a "gutsy play."

 

[oldude]

I love the way Quinnipiac plays. Looks like they’ll advance to face the Huskies on Monday. That’ll be the end of the road for the Bobcats, but they should be very proud of their performance.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

The ACC and SEC are supposed to be so brutal UConn wouldn't survive playing in them. Georgia and Miami really showing that's the case today.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Buffalo up by 20 now!

 

[ASweet3781]

Will UConn fans show up Monday? If not could be a neutral court game against Quinnipiac.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Ohio St. is up by 40+.

 

[wbball novice]

Looks like Quinnipiac will be UConn's next game.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Forgot LSU got smacked by 11 seed Central Michigan today. The SEC: way more bark than bite.

 

[ASweet3781]

Ohio St. is up by 40+.

They are my sleeper team out of Spokane.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Why is Miami fouling? Let the clock run, you aren't coming back from 13 down in 30 seconds. Weak.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

They are my sleeper team out of Spokane.

Don't think they'll fare well against Oregon.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Still fouling. 25 seconds left, it's gonna last another 10 minutes at this rate. Waive the white flag already coach.

 

[iri10]

Buffalo up by 20 now!

Buffalo buffaloed the Bulls

 

[LETTERL]

Mercer on a 12-2 run...54-53 game. Under 5 minutes to go now against Georgia.

 

[wbball novice]

Good thing UConn walloped St Francis, gotta make sure Quinnipiac is intimidated.

 

[Plebe]

This is a really great win for Quinnipiac. Miami is not a bad team, and now they're beating them two years in a row in the NCAA tournament. Quinnipiac played great help defense in the second half and Miami just missed a lot of shots. And on the other end, Quinnipiac just hit one tough shot after another.
