NCAA Tournament Day 1 Thread (Merged)

Very interesting first game. Creighton v.s. Ville

 

[navery12]

Should be a fun game to start off the day. Louisville and Creighton are 2 good teams

 

[Revrat]

Creighton off to a decent start. Could easily be up big but can't hit their wide open outside shots.

I actually hear some idiot on mad dog sports talk radio suggest that Danny Hurley would strongly consider taking the job. It was the host sitting in for Adam Schein and the guest who was the expert quickly dismissed a Hurley move to Texas.

I love delusional sports fans...

Been on the BY since the beginning, not sure I ever started a thread? This is a damn Louisville home game, sucks for Creighton.

Still think they pull this one out though.

Start a new Thursday game thread

Figured I'd get it started - Creighton's defense looks good and they've missed a few wide open shots. I like their chances.

I know I should root for Creighton, but it's very difficult.

 

[Revrat]

Creighton looking like the better team so far. If they could just hit more of their wide open shots.

 

[mike012]

Creighton doesn’t foul against Louisville also.

 

[HuskyHawk]

Creighton is playing close with Louisville but keeps missing shots. Even dunks.

 

[superjohn]

Tournament opens up with best matchup of the day, Creighton v. Louval.

 

[uchusky32]

Let's go BE, Creighton!

 

[HuskyHawk]

Kalkbrenner is getting open for lobs repeatedly. I don't think that's normally what I expect. Creighton up 28-21 against the most under-seeded team playing in their home state.

 

[NHUConnfan]

Creighton looks really good. Having an experienced team is going to help them out...I think they could make some noise this tourney.

Will not be as friendly as a crowd as people think.

The UK fans didn't show up, or they decided to support their hated brother. This is a home game for Louisville.

UConn is certainly the underdog. Florida had like 15 steals in that UGA game, that's how they came back. That worries me for sure. It's not a team I wanted UConn to face. That said, I'm sure UConn isn't a #8 seed that Florida wants to face. Great coach, better talent than our record reflects, knows how to win in March. If Florida plays an A game, not much UConn can do. Against UGA I think it was Georgia A+ game and Florida D+ game. UConn is a lot better than UGA. If Florida gives us a B- and UConn an A, we can win.

Don’t watch any SEC basketball but Uga lost to only 1 ranked team, Arkansas.

 

[ColchVEGAS]

Great game to kick it off.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Creighton would have been a Top 10 team if Isaac had played and Kalkbrenner had not had his back problems in November and early December.

Is Louisville missing someone? I am at a restaurant and can’t hear the announcers.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Zugic never looks like he is hustling.

 

[jibsey]

Game in Lexington Ky. Crowd is all Louisville. Fouls could be big here

 

[GampelGladiator]

Why does #8 Louisville get a home game?

I wonder what the average seed is for the #2 team in the big east??? I bet it's alot lower than 9.

 

[Edward Sargent]

whats going onn with the camera

 

[AzHusky]

Can Creighton keep up this pace
