March Madness Day 1 Thread

[Marat]

He's 3 ft away with a clear view. I would be apoplectic if that was us.

Imagine if that was Hurley

 

[AzHusky]

UConn lost a game at Miami with less time than this. That game is still a nightmare to this day for me.

100%. Costly missed calls

 

[gsmooth]

Marquett’s weakness of defensive rebounding is costing them big time vs North Carolina. It’s why UConn was a bad match up for Marquette

if only Richmond could bring in Shamon Tooles off the bench.... then Iowa would have a chance

 

[gsmooth]

Damn and Richmond had to win the A10 tournament to even get into the Big Dance. They barely beat an under 500 Rhode Island I A10 tourney

 

[superjohn]

I want to see Fran McCaffery lose his mind.

I'm amazed he was so calm at the end of that game, younger Fran probably would've attacked one of those refs.

Yeah I remember when Sharon made that dunce play, SMH

 

[connVA]

I am pulling for Marquette. I am a Big East homer

The Dawson Garcia Invitational isn’t going quite as well as the PC game

 

[gsmooth]

Come the ph u CK on Marquette

 

[nelsonmuntz]

I hope Marquette got t-shirts to make this trip worth it.

 

[gsmooth]

Justin Lewis is a non factor in this game

 

[cohenzone]

Just a horrible job by the refs

Maybe, but bottom lines Richmond played their game. Nice team.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

I wonder what the biggest margin of victory is in an 8/9 game. UNC should go for it.

Seriousl, I know. It was 3 offensive rebounds they gave up that they should have secured and they resultEd in 3 3pters that allowed Carolina that broke this game

 

[gsmooth]

Ok I am close to tapping out UFC style from this game

 

[nelsonmuntz]

If I was Shaka Smart, I would play the starters at least the first 10 minutes of the second half. Make them eat this ish sandwich.

 

[gsmooth]

Also Shaka having them full court press too often got UNC a bunch of open 3s. He should have gotten away from the full court press much sooner

 

[Scoe]

Donny killed Marquette.

 

[UconnU]

Gonzaga in a 2 point game with GA State at half. If they win they have to play red hot Memphis who honestly may have the talent advantage.

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

Well at least Marquette is keeping their composure, so there's that.

I was just recently trying to pull up highlights of that game the other day, but found nothing. My youngest son had given up on the good guys late in the game vs. Villanova. I told him stranger things have happened and went searching, to no avail. Didn’t Darius Rice hit 3 3’s in 9-ish seconds to beat us? If anyone knows the full story, I’d love to hear it.

 

[MexicoHusky]

Just switched to Gonzaga vs Georgia State.... doesn't appear that either are playing D

 

[HuskyHawk]

Timme (who looks like a from 1986) with one of the most egregious uncalled travels of all time. Fix is in.

It was at least two 3s. I don't think he hit 3 of them... but my memory is not that great. The last one was on a turnover by us. Shamon Tooles inbounded the ball to no one. Rice ran it down, spun and drained a three with either no time or very little time. Never seen such a ridiculous husky loss. I was speechless.
