At what point does the term mid-major become obsolete? It's almost disrespectful...intended or not.
A reminder that game threads aren’t allowed on the Boneyard. Use the chat room
If there is a UCONN game going on... can general users use the Men's Football or Basketball Chat Room?? Asking for a bunch of friends.
Graves has issues himself. Gotten fat and lazy during covid. Can't see him coaching as long as Tara or Geno. I don't think the passion is there like it was pre Sabrina and during the Sabrina era. Hopefully he makes a planned transition to his cabin in Eastern Oregon after a few more years and Oregon has a nice succession plan in place. They guy can recruit as well as anyone. I will give him that. Not the guy that Oregon had originally hiredFitting end to a bizarre Oregon season. They never shot the ball as well as what was expected from this group all season.
It happens sometime. SC has held UConn to 2 and 3-point quarters. Held Texas who was a higher seed than Mercer to 0 points in the 4th quarter in the elite 8.Considering that UConn just held Mercer, a higher seeded team than Howard, to zero points in the third quarter, I suppose that means you are even more impressed with how a season of adversity might have been an even better thing to have happened to UConn.

Forget KSU. They only won because Wash State was so bad. Teder 0-10 plus just not being with it. She was carrying them a few games this year. No one showed up but C. Ledger-Walker. She scored 20 of the 40 total team points.Interesting to note that the Wichita regional 4 second round games each have a 'crasher' #9 Gonzaga, #10 South Dakota, #11 Villanova, and #12 Belmont.
Spokane has only one #12 FGCU
and so far:
Greensboro has only 1 #10 Creighton with two games to play and an upset watch for UNC at the moment as they are tied with SFA
and
Bridgeport has two with #9 KSU and #11 Princeton with two games to play.
Lol. You thought this was a post about comparing UConn to SC, when it was about addressing the relentless, pessimistic blinders adorned by a fellow UConn fan.It happens sometimes.

Colorado and Washington State didn't exactly light it up either.Pac 12 has been kicking butt for years, so I guess they were due for a clunker post season performance. I don't like it at all though.

I was including them. 3 teams out in the 1st Round, all higher seeded (although 8 vs. 9 really doesn't count as an upset). For years the conference did a great job of living up to their seeds at the very least, and many over performed. This year they didn't do that.Colorado didn't exactly light it up either.

Well, you know I've been a cheerleader for the PAC 12 for any number of years. Even though they may be a little down this year IMO they're still better than the B1G 10, the ACC, and the BIG 12...and it ain't like the HS talent is shying away from the conference.I was including them. 3 teams out in the 1st Round, all higher seeded (although 8 vs. 9 really doesn't count as an upset).

I've kind of expected it, honestly. When your conference tournament 2 seed is WSU, who lost to NC State and Oregon by more than the total points they scored today, you know it was a down season for the conference.Pac 12 has been kicking butt for years, so I guess they were due for a clunker post season performance.

I did and my apologizes. That being said neither was really that impressive. Teams go on scoring droughts all the time. It just looks worse when it starts and ends a quarter.Lol.

How is this possible? I was told over and over again, via mantras like "every game's a dogfight" and "no nights off", that the teams from these highly regarded conferences would never lose to an underdog like Belmont from the lowly Ohio Valley Conference.
The cognitive dissonance is overwhelming.
And Rhyne with a 4 for 14 finish to her Kentucky career. Remember last year when an underdog Iowa team thrashed Rhyne and her teammates in the Round of 32 (setting up the Hawkeyes' own demise at the hands of UConn). Two straight bad exits from the NCAA for Rhyne and co.That is the Kentucky team we saw 70% of the year. They got hot briefly but had a feeling they would get punched in the mouth. Well done by Princeton
