Marist-Bonnies (& other games in progress)

[MilfordHusky]

Cal down 13 overall, being outscored by 17 on FTs.

 

[mr006]

Imagine paying $41 for a game ticket and $15 to park--for a Georgetown game!

I'm pretty sure that $15 covers both at Georgetown... and you might even get change!

 

[CTGirl15]

Wow, this is one of the most telling stats of the game:

Novosel alone has had 14 FTA (ND overall has 22), Cal only has 4.

Cal has 15 fouls, to only 7 for Notre Dame.

That is a huge difference

Marist is a perfect example of smart and disciplined. Announcers: "Losers go home." Throwing all the canards at this one. Throwing up now.

 

[alexrgct]

And now St B-Marist is national.

OMG, Marist missed a FT.

64-63 St. B, less than a minute to go.

Marist can't grab an offensive rebound, and it could easily cost them the game.

Word came down from the league office (ESPN...err, I mean NCAA) and was received..."the face" must advance.

OMG Nell Fortner is like nails on chalkboard. The next intelligent thing she says will be her first.

OMG Nell Fortner is like nails on chalkboard. The next intelligent thing she says will be her first.

Definitely the C Team announcing crew in Tallahassee.

Though what Beth Mowins did to wind up with GT-GT is beyond me.

 

[RockyMTblue2]

OMG Nell Fortner is like nails on chalkboard. The next intelligent thing she says will be her first.

OMG ... cough up some more priceless jewels Nell.

But, seriously, study your craft...watch a few Bob Costas interviews, try to earn your pay, Less than mediocrity is the norm everywhere you look these days.

 

[alexrgct]

Mind-bogging turnover by Marist. Jinxing attempt by male announcer works! But Marist misses the would-be game-tying three.

66-63 final.

Bonnies are getting their butts handed to them in the next round, I'm afraid.

 

[Vowelguy]

Why are watching Baylor shoot free thows in a 20 pt game with less than a minute to go when Gt-Gtwn are within 10 with 5 min to go?

Uh, you are asking why? Regionals. Brittany interview right now ...

One of the Georgetown players--I think it was Tia Magee--was quoted in the Washington Post recently as saying that Georgetown should make the Final Four because they are as good as anyone in the country. Where is the dividing line between confidence and delusion?

 

[MilfordHusky]

Every team has scored more than 26 points tonight. In fact, all the teams in the early games have scored at least double that.

Losing 80-38 woud definitely lead me to that conclusion...

It's just a jump to the left...

 

[MilfordHusky]

Exactly. But for a break here and there, that was a winnable game. Could have gone either way, except for UConn's closing run of 80-38.

 

[speedoo]

Bonnies vs. ND will be a very ugly game. Bonnies always look ugly and the Novasel FT shooting exhibition is getting very old.

 

[alexrgct]

Exactly. But for a break here and there, that was a winnable game. Could have gone either way, except for UConn's closing run of 80-38.

Indeed. If it hadn't been for that stretch from 20:00 in the first half until 00:00 in the second half, GT would have been right in that thing.

 

[MilfordHusky]

11 point win based on a 19 FT advantage. Standard MO for the Green Evil Empire.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Indeed. If it hadn't been from that stretch from 20:00 in the first half until 00:00 in the second half, GT would have been right in that thing.

They played us dead even over that stretch. In fact, the score was tied at the national anthem, if I recall correctly.

 

[DEK1234]

Alex and Milford, you guys are cracking me up!!

 

[alexrgct]

Seriously, I have no idea what to watch. I guess UD-KU and SJU-OU. LSU-PSU wouldn't interest me that much except that we have to play the winner.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Sugar has lost some of her sweetness: 4-19 shooting from the floor tonight.

She's a volume shooter. But that's a large volume of misses.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Seriously, I have no idea what to watch. I guess UD-KU and SJU-OU. LSU-PSU wouldn't interest me that much except that we have to play the winner.

SJU v. OU has the cutest coaches, probably by a wide margin.
