March Madness Day 1 Thread

2/8 from 3 for SDSU. 44% on the season. Can't win if they shoot less than 30% from 3.

 

[Tenspro2002]

SDSU needs to be up around 10 for 25 from 3 if they're going to win this game.

Both more shots and more makes.

 

[HuskyHawk]

SDSU just very predictable. They attack from the right Corner nearly every possession. PC has generated 5-6 steals in that spot because they know exactly what is coming. That’s the ballgame along with some decent O rebounding by PC.

Kenny Smith has us in his Final 4

And Barkley has us in the sweet 16

In every one of my brackets I have PC winning. A lot of time the popular upset pick doesn’t materialize. I don’t have data for this. I am just speaking anecdotally

C'mon Memphis. Really rooting for that matchup against Zags. Game of the week for me (not counting any of ours). Haven't watched a ton of Memphis, but I have no faith in them in this first game. Seems like a team that needs a good opponent to play with any motivation. Boise State doesn't seem like that opponent.

Is that the top of AT&T Lily's head?

Damn just as I typed that 7 min ago SDSU is on a 8-0 run

Deep down Gonzaga is pulling for Boise State

I doubt it’s deep down. I’m sure they’d definitely rather not play Memphis.

I had no idea Minaya was Omar’s kid.

SDSU is not disciplined enough right now to win this game. It doesn’t work against high major teams. They need to take better shots

Sorry didn’t realize PC was considered “high major”

 

[Hurleyman216]

PC just missed like 6 shots on one possession. Their shot selection is pretty bad for a team of veterans. They need to be careful because SDSU could hit 3-4 threes and make this close again

Memphis' turnaround is definitely one of the weirder developments of this season.

Yeah that Zags won’t fear playing Memphis or anyone for that matter.That is not what I was trying to say. But if they had a choice they would rather play Boise State

 

[NowInStorrs]

So this is technically a comment from Day 0 but the Rutgers and Notre Dame game last night was really close.

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

SDSU is taking terrible shots. Refs are letting a ton of contact go in the paint. I hope we get this whistle.

SDSU is not winning this game, but PC's crazy shot selection is going to end its season.

Yeah that's what I meant. I doubt they will but Memphis definitely has the talent to beat Gonzaga.

Memphis' turnaround is definitely one of the weirder developments of this season.

weirdly, it actually coincides almost perfectly with penny's unhinged rant.

also coincides with bates leaving the program, though. dude was having a brutal season.

 

[gsmooth]

There is a reason Minaya is open for 3s.

Happened as soon as Emoni Bates got hurt. Fully expecting them to lose the 1st game he plays in now that he's available again

 

[MexicoHusky]

Colorado St shot better from 3 than 2. Didn't watch enough of the game to say if it was good D by Michigan or bad O from Colorado St.
