March Madness Round 1 Thread

I love seeing Breeding at this Texas game. I assume they don't change locations overnight?

 

[Jaydumo20]

It's an absolutely crazy comment to make before we've even played a game.

Or hyperbole. Either one

 

[Icehawk]

The foul call was at the basket - how were they able to use that to review the AJ hit?

 

[uconngb]

This dude needs to hit a god dam FT

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Terrible possession by BYU.

 

[HooperScooper]

And we think Reed is bad at the line?

 

[uconngb]

Omg he’s awful

Worse than Shaq

BYU gets down big. Then goes on a run and gets close in the 2nd half. But eventually falls short and loses. I think I've seen this movie a few times.

Texas not scoring for around a 3:30 minutes stretch from the 7 minute mark down was the larger problem at the time.

Terrible take by Rob Wright

I have no idea what the point of that response is. Defense is half the game. You need to stop the other team and score to catch up. Right?

Oh good James BrEading is at the BYU-Texas game in Portland which means he won't be officiating the UConn game tomorrow in Philadelphia.

 

[Jaydumo20]

St Louis v Georgia is an undercard if I ever saw one

 

[Hans Sprungfeld]

Is Nowell injured? He transferred for playing time and sat their entire first tournament game.

He and Singare were lucky charms on their respective benches.

You don’t think they are sending a private jet for him tonight??

Singare got PT

Was it the defense of Texas worrying about killing clock every possession?

 

[Hans Sprungfeld]

Not only is that bad technique, but it's obvious Vesaar did not know the rules.

Strengthening the argument that two wrongs don't make a right.

 

[uconngb]

And yet ANOTHER double digit seed advances

Very chalky…..

 

[Mets1432]

St Mary's outclassed again. Wouldn't be surprised if Gonzaga gets tested tonight too. The WCC is a joke of a conference. How they get the same respect as the Big East baffles me.

 

[Jaydumo20]

I want to see as many Big 10(?) losses as possible.
I hate that conference

Be careful making comments before Villanova and St John’s play their games.

I know nothing about Kennesaw but I am def taking the 20.5

If TJ Power doesnt make a living playing ball he will get any job he applies for. You have to hire a guy named TJ Power. It's Simpson-esque

 

[alexd]

The BYU loss really hurts UConn's KenPom ratings..

But the TX win helps us.

St. John's is winning. People here overestimate their "built only for the BE". They were a top 5 pre-season team that struggled to gel early.
Fact is, they have a HOF coach and talented players. With the way Duke played, I can see St. John's knocking them off too.

 

[alexd]

And we think Reed is bad at the line?

We have a name in Lithuanian for our lousy FT shooters. 🤬

Kennesaw played Alabama tough earlier in the year, they can make Gonzaga sweat.

Im not so sure. The difference in pace is not going to be welcome by St John's I think we may be pleasantly surprised.

 

[Hans Sprungfeld]

Singare got PT

Yeah, his stat line looked something like 40 billion or trillion.

Kennesaw has a big thick PG who is tough.
