NCAA Tournament Day 3 Thread

He is not a bad player. but he averaged 6 ppg and 4.7 rpg. His stats weren't measurably better than Facey's.

I also don't feel like having an argument tonight over whether some random guy on a bubble team is better than our guys, because to make that argument, you have to say our guy sucks.

Nova is out of mistakes. They need to be perfect or NC State needs to get stupid (I know, not a stretch) or Nova's gone.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Now that was a HUGE traveling call. I didn't realize a pump fake was the same as a travel. His feet didn't budge.

C'MON NC STATE

Would be the best non-UConn upset I've called in a while

 

[FfldCntyFan]

Right on cue there was stupid!!!!!!!!!!

 

[ASweet3781]

This is a comical back and forth of stupidity right now.

My post was more so directed at you saying "UConn was after Abu?" He was probably UConn's biggest recruiting target last year...

I hate that play, going for the 3 with 15 sec on the clock

 

[BugsyCT]

Wow - golden opportunity there for Nova. Wide open look.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Wright's choking vs. Gottfried's stupidity =resistable force against movable object.

 

[ASweet3781]

But why so dead set on 3 when for first time all game you can tie with a 2?

He was wide open. Not a bad shot.

 

[NC_Uconn_Fan]

1.4 is not enough time on a miss

 

[NC_Uconn_Fan]

lol

Same old Nova. Can't wait to read Dana O'Neil's article about how next year it's gonna be different.

 

[kyle]

now onto watching Georgetown lose...

 

[BugsyCT]

Horrible inbound. At least get off a 1/2 court or 3/4 court heave.

That's now the 3rd time since 2010 Nova's been a 1 or 2 seed and not survived the first weekend.

 

[ASweet3781]

Who are the 2 and 3's in Nova's bracket? Know Ville is the 4. Who were the lucky ones to get that 1 seed?

2) Virginia
3) Oklahoma

Rough weekend for the non-P5, and it will likely get rougher in the next 24 hours.

 

[UConn990411]

Lolol Big East.

 

[ASweet3781]

The NCAA performance of those Big East Catholics. I am having flashbacks of us having to carry them after these ugly exits. Guess they will have to hope for Xavier and Butler to make up for them now.

And in the biggest shocker of the tourney, it turns out the "Big East" was way overrated and underperformed.

Who the hell could have predicted that with a league depending on perennial heavyweights like Villanova, Georgetown, and Providence.

Same thing happened last year. Great seeds, laid a big egg.

The AAC hasn't done any better but Cincy was always going to lose to kentucky and if not for a bonehead ref, SMU is in the s16.
