Sweet 16 - Anybody watching?

[intlzncster]

A true 75% FT shooter would make 1 of 2 about 38% of the time.

hahaha I'm just saying. I feel like free throws are about concentration as much as skill (if you have a good enough stroke). And at the end of the game, your concentration is on high. Make the goshdarn shot for me. THat's all I ask.

Yikes. What a trash side of the bracket. Loyola, K St, Michigan, FSU. Going to be like 2004 and 2011 when the Final 4 game between the East & Midwest is the de-facto NC game and the NC game is just a coronation. Sucks, this was a good tournament.

Been saying all tournament that it's gonna be Nova vs Duke for the NC when they meet in the FF.

CBS has a Loyola vs. K State on Saturday

And the college basketball Gods are smiling. This is what college bball is all about, talented team beating talented players!

At least UNcheat, Squid and someone will be out between Duke, Cuse, and KU will be out.

Michigan has been playing like a top 5ish team for the past month. They are a scary team

Playing without their best player

Yeah, I guess I have to root for them to make it to the NC. If they go bombs away like they did tonight, they can beat almost anyone. We’ll see.

Will probably be pulling for Clemson out of that bracket you pull for the team that has less of a shot to win it all, no way can I route for Cuse.

I got a lot of crap for being the only one in my pool to pick them to go all the way. Things are opening up nicely for them.

...dammit, I probably just jinxed them.

FSU looks way better then Gonzaga its not even close.

@Rocktheworld

Hope you didn’t pay too much. Brutal doubleheader.

 

[whaler11]

Loyola/FreeShoe/Clempzon/TTU Final Four and CBS/Turner might stop payment on the check.

 

[Scoe]

Lets go Loyola 3 more games I can dream can't I.

 

[champs99and04]

What was Kentucky doing at the end there with that double?

KP has Loyola -1 for Sat.

 

[SL Husky]

Leonard Hamilton? Crazy how long he's been at Florida State, seems like Miami wasn't that long ago.

Not a good loss for Few, even with Tillie missing.

 

[Jaker]

Loyola to the final4? They looked darn good.

Buuuhhhhruuuutaaaal.

Not to mention being around Michigan and FSU fans for 4.5 straight hours (no re-admittance of course) reminding me why I hate going to live sporting events. Michigan up 25 and they’re booing non-calls. So I endure that travesty of a game, telling myself that at least Zaga-Michigan will be an entertaining high powered final... then they had a shooting night nearly as woeful as A&M’s. West bracket after the first round looked to be the best; probably turned out to be the worst

AND THERE WAS NO ALCOHOL. What was I thinking

Decent seats at least. No I didn’t pay too too much

 

[methodology]

KSU players irked by no Kentucky handshakes

Wouldn't expect anything less from a Calipari team. Leaving court after losing without shaking hands is poor sportsmanship. There is no excuse.

Kentucky basically had a home game in Atlanta with a bracket of misfits and couldn't deliver and left the court losers but didn't have the respect to shake the hands of the team that beat them

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Refs tried the give the game to Squid, but they can't shoot the free throws for Kentucky.

FSU looked good.

I hope they win it all. Then they'd have more titles than Cuse!

I mean, they were literally a minute from the national title last year, and were missing a key player this year...

 

[nelsonmuntz]

I ride Few as much as anyone on this board, but last night was not his fault. He was missing a key player, and Hamilton had been fumbling a very talented roster all season. FSU had this in them the whole year.

Calipari, on the other hand, blew it to a mediocre team with a mediocre coach. At this point, the highlight of the tournament for me has been Calipari and his multiple lottery picks lost to Bruce freaking Weber and a bunch of guys that will be lucky to be gym teachers in 5 years.
