New Mexico is the Lobos. New Mexico St. is the Aggies. They are 2 different teams! Len Elmore needs to stop calling the Aggies New Mexico!

edit: All the announcers are doing it. Wtf is wrong with them.

Mich St/Georgia started out as a rock fight, until Mich St turned on the afterburners. 13 point lead at the half.

Can't ever write off an Izzo coached team. No matter how bad they look at times during the regular season.

Does Self have a toupee or not?
A toupee or a weave, a woman I know made out with him many years ago before the toupee. I don't trust people that where fur on their head, part of the reason I never trusted Pitino.

When I see a team like Northern Iowa it's so clear you don't have to have the greatest measureables or the most stars on the court. Having the right pieces that can play together and think on the court is huge. They're well coached for sure. Of course they can shoot the ball some too but they could give anyone trouble in this tournament except arguably Kentucky.

I wish UConn would get a guy like Devin Williams on WVU he can actually take a body or two and rebound. Hopefully Lubin will step up down the road.

Wichita St is getting hosed by the refs. Even Elmore of all people is saying the refs are missing stuff.

Mamadou Ndiaye is absolutely massive. For a team that shoots as poorly as Louisville, they're going to have trouble scoring when the 7'6" is protecting the rim.

Just seeing someone that huge on the court is startling. I have no idea how good he'll actually be, but I can already see Tacko Fall (7'5", 270 pounds, top 100) being an issue over the next few years while at UCF.

Like in the KY game last year, if Wichita just played some defense here and there they would have this game. Now, it's going down to the wire.

Up five on a Blackshear 3. But Ndiaye is a space eater. He dunked the ball and came back on defense and slapped the floor.

You can see the difference between him and AB in the post on offense. There is a lot of stools under the Ville basket when Ndiaye gets the ball there. They can't double team him because he's a head taller than anyone Ville has and can see over anyone flashing to the basket. How did he end up at UC Irvine.

probably bc he can;t really move/run/stamina... brimahs body type wont allow him to gain much more weight... i hope the crowd gets behind uci and goes crazy

Yeah I recognize his limitations. Just love Harrell being intimidated. Anteaters have bad passing guards.

the big stiff is scary and he actually moves pretty well for a huge guy

He was ranked as a top 100 recruit and a 4-star prospect so it's not like he came out of nowhere. I remember Georgetown being in his top 3 or 4.
