Thursday 1st Round games thread

[HuskyHawk]

Quite a day of March Madness no matter how this game wraps up.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Reminds me a little of the 1993 Santa Clara (Steve Nash's freshman year) win over Arizona where AZ screws around the whole second half thinking they can take over at any time.

Princeton isn't even playing that well.

 

[superjohn]

Good lord Arizona has played scared.

 

[millertime7774]

Down goes Arizona!!1

 

[superjohn]

Bye bye Zona

 

[auror]

(Runs to check if I had Arizona in the FF in any of my brackets)

 

[metsfan2323]

This game is no fluke, Princeton is the better team. Zona might be the worst 2 seed in the history of the tournament.

Princeton shot terrible from 3.

 

[BugsyCT]

This is why I don't do bracket pools - just want to be able to root for the team I want to win.

Yeah Princeton!

 

[phillionaire]

lmao I had zona losing to uconn

 

[SoFla Steve]

I'm just going to crumple mine up and throw it out.

 

[Ripper32]

Tommy Lloyd, welcome to hell

 

[B1GEast]

Arizona goes down!!!

 

[CardiacAndre7]

Princeton fully deserved, Arizona looks so bad

 

[Hey Adrien!]

This is why I don't do bracket pools - just want to be able to root for the team I want to win.

Yeah Princeton!

That's why I make crappy choices in bracket pools. Just poop the bed early, burn the bracket and enjoy the games.

Congrats to Princeton! Helps soften the blow of them beating Yale in the Ivy final.

 

[Ripper32]

Arizona's backcourt was prone to lackluster games like this.

Yeah Princeton!

I was still rooting for Princeton, just had to see if I was screwed. Nope, picked Alabama in all of them. Go Tigers.

 

[jrazz12]

lmao I had zona losing to uconn

Same. And was perfect until this. Light the bracket on fire

 

[UConnSwag11]

Love it

 

[superjohn]

Good for Princeton, they deserved it but holy cow was that bad by Zona. Nobody wanted the ball on Zona the last 5 minutes except for Ramey forcing things he wasn't even close on.

 

[UConnSwag11]

Who is a worse tournament team, Zona or Virginia?

 

[BugsyCT]

Arizona becomes the first school to lose twice in the 1st round as a 2-seed. (1993, Santa Clara)

 

[Marat]

Congrats to Princeton !

 

[UConnSwag11]

Good for Princeton, they deserved it but holy cow was that bad by Zona. Nobody wanted the ball on Zona the last 5 minutes except for Ramey forcing things he wasn't even close on.

I think when we had Kemba, Bill Self said we’re a team that can make it far because Kemba was a “bucket getter.” When you need a bucket, he’s the one to get it for you

Cuse didn't do it twice?

 

[UCfor3]

Bilas instantly regrets changing his pick. His bracket from his special is a mess.

 

[Kaizen]

Princeton 59 Arizona 55, a big upset.

 

[joelerg87]

Pick the upsets on Friday. Thursday usually goes roughly chalk. Friday is when the upsets happen.

Should have known that there would be some big upsets today!

 

[Hunt for 7]

So should the Arizona coach lose his job? We know how this board would feel if we were a two seed and lost to a 15 seed. I was already nervous about tomorrow now I am down right frightened

 

[Edward Sargent]

Brackets busted with AZ.

 

[HuskyHawk]

I didn’t see Arizona getting past Baylor, and had them losing to Missouri in one of my two brackets, but still didn’t expect this.
