March Madness Round 1 Thread

[Mets1432]

Outside of the UK game, today has been a giant snooze. Hopefully we follow suit.

One of the reason's i'm nervous. Hopefully we aren't the 1 crazy upset that seems to happen every year.

I do think Cal Baptist will give Kansas a run, hopefully they are the WTF game.

Walking in with no Silas isn’t exactly settling

""My toof!!!"

 

[HooperScooper]

All the nines won the 8/9 games

I think they said for the first time ever.

 

[Dove]

Wow, such an awkward FT shot.

He really put a spin on the ball.

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

I really like Mick but he’s such a dick to his guys it’s crazy.

 

[gsmooth]

Sky Clark clearly got fouled there. Officials missed that one.

 

[BFieldHusky]

i get the feeling the Thurs/Fri's gonna feel a lot like this - but it should make for an exciting Sat/Sun. Some of the good matchups start there.

That's always the trade off. Some juicy matchups already set up for the weekend.

 

[BFieldHusky]

With no Silas potentially anything is possible, but not overly impressed with either team.

Every game in the East can be great.

Duke banged up vs a tough gritty TCU that's played the best in the country, and won a couple
StJ vs Kansas will be lot's of fun
MSU vs Ville
Uconn vs UCLA

I mean, that right there is a great set of game. The coaching pedigree alone in those 8 games is through the roof.

 

[connVA]

Well if we were to lose to either of these two teams in the next round we probably don’t belong in the tourney anyway. Good lord this is bad basketball.

 

[UCLJ0211]

The leprechaun is at it again

 

[TRest]

They’re going to drag this carcass to the bitter end.

 

[connVA]

UCF has missed 12 layups and 10 free throws? Someone should inform them they’re not in the American anymore,

What dipshit scheduler decided to put UCLA/UCF in the 730 slot over Uconn-Furman. It make absolute no sense.

Better still, the opening game of the late session in San Diego tipped off at 4:25 local time.

What the fudge is happening in this UCLA game. UCLA was cruising and it should have gone final 20+ minutes ago.

 

[upstater]

Think I'd rather play UCLA if it comes to that.

But most importantly, no overtime please

UCF played some of the sloppiest ball I've ever seen and somehow they were in it until the final minute.

 

[UCFBfan]

I’ve never seen so many different reasons to stop the clock and then need to check to reset it in my life. All this within a minute of game time.

 

[bendm]

Skyy Clark looks like he’s aged 15 years since he was a frosh at Illinois

 

[connVA]

It was close but UCLA wins by two missed layups…

 

[BugsyCT]

10:30 tip for an east coast game. SMH

 

[StllH8L8ner]

I really like Mick but he’s such a dick to his guys it’s crazy.

I felt bad for the kid who he threw out of that game after the flagrant foul that wasn’t all that flagrant.

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

I don’t know who’s calling the Kansas game but they just gave an extended shoutout to Pat Driscoll while the camera was zoomed in on a ref who’s definitely not Pat Driscoll.
