NCAA Tournament Saturday (Day 3) Thread

[BRS24]

Luis has played poorly but you got to at least give him a shot to close here, especially with no Richmond

Ok, so hubby is watching St J, and I'm watching WBB, so what gives with him not getting PT?

 

[uconngb]

If it wasn’t Calipari on the other side I would be SOOOOOOOO happy

 

[FortTheEad]

I hope Pitino and Co. don't forget to wave goodbye as they pass Storrs.

NY media was planning the parade route for St. John’s all week.

UConn needs to get out of the Big East once and for all. All these teams do is beat each other up in the regular season and then lose to more athletic and skilled teams in the Tournament. But, the biggest reason by far will be NIL money. It's just going to be a negative virtuous cycle going forward.

StJ not even losing this one because Arkansas played well, they just stunk. What an egg this one was. To not have your best player in during crunch time is wild.

Luis was unplayable. Moment was way too big for him.

Post game should be interesting.

 

[uconnblueinky]

Well, at least St John's made it to the Jimmy Fallon show

 

[lateralous]

This made last nights game against OU look like a Picasso. Red Storm totally choked but the refs made this unwatchable.

 

[Marat]

If #10 Arkansas can beat #2, why can't we win tomorrow?

 

[EnochRoot]

Luis was unplayable. Moment was way too big for him.

He was having a bad game, but he was still their best option.

Championship DNA is a real thing, one year of success doesn't create it, that's why you can't be cocky

 

[Drame]

Disgraceful performance by StJ. That crap Arkansas team beat the team that wrecked the big east this year. WTF.

 

[jibsey]

Cal is the better college coach.

 

[SoFla Steve]

Well now I can set a match to my bracket.

 

[Scoe]

Hey Brandon Tierney you wanna talk about this unbelievable loss on Monday.

 

[cellocgg]

Does this mean we can wave to Pitino on his way back to Queens?

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

What a win for Cal. Can’t say I’m heartbroken.

Played poorly forcing up shots and it appears that Pitino has simply benched him

 

[Scoe]

The Brandon Tierney and Spike Lee curse is real.

 

[IndyLives]

Big hit to Pitino s legacy today

 

[HooperScooper]

SJU shooting 28% and 2/18 from 3

Lots of us predicted this. I figured they'd get a round farther but this is how I expected they'd go out. At some point in the tournament you need to score. And Arkansas shot 2-19 from three so they weren't world beaters shooting either.

 

[mike012]

I’ll wave to St. John’s as they take the we suck bus back home.

 

[Durks07]

I hope the St Johns fans wave at storrs on their way back home.

 

[aceboon]

I've been banging the drum all season that I didn't trust St Johns outside of the Big East setting

Long ride back for Spike Lee.
