Nice win by Northwestern - solid season

Evening is a snoozer so far.

Evening is a snoozer so far.

Night cap games don't look too promising, either, unless Houston chokes.

hold steady fellas

my UNC-Asheville Bulldogs are tipping off soon

 

[HuskyHawk]

Would love to see this overrated Houston team go down. They are in fir a ride awakening in the Big XII.

 

[xclamations]

Duke probably going to the final four now. Hopefully not can't stand them.
Thought ORU was gonna do damage and it ends up being U of A choking to Princeton. Didn't pick them once. Texas vs A&M or Penn State will be good too next round

 

[HuskyHawk]

Ragin Cajuns are going to give this depleted Tennessee team a game. This will be a fun one.

Only if you don't watch it. This game is brutal to watch. The pre-game total was like 135 and I live bet the under at 123.5 and I think it may go way under that.

Duke probably going to the final four now. Hopefully not can't stand them.

At least second time I’ve seen this. Duke wins once and some people melt. No respect for Marquette? They already showed out once in the garden.

kill shot for tennessee to end the half

 

[CTBasketball]

Seems that we got all the upsets out of the way early today.

Would love to see this overrated Houston team go down. They are in fir a ride awakening in the Big XII.

I mean, they were in the E8 last year, the Final Four the year before, and the Sweet 16 the tournament prior. At some point you just tip your cap and say they're good, right?

3/4 of the 1-16 and 2-15 games. Obviously one of those 6 games gave us a major upset, but that's rare. Tomorrow has the 6-11 and 3-14 in addition to the 5-12/4-13s. Likely to see a bit more chaos.

Houston only up 3 at the half.

 

[Austin316]

Javonte Brown’s been keeping that bench nice and warm for Texas A&M

Nope. Not a one seed. Losing to that crap Memphis team is embarrassing. They will find a way to win this against a bad #16 seed.

#3 for Northern Kentucky is putting Houston in a blender whenever he puts the ball on the floor

 

[AzHusky]

Houston looking like a number 1 losing to a 16 if they don't turn it up soon. Game tied with 15 minutes left.

 

[karstenkibbe]

The Norse are really fun to watch. These guys play hard. I love Kelvin Sampson as a coach, but I want to see Houston go down here.

 

[phillionaire]

Is Houston starting to get lemon booty

 

[HuskyHawk]

Houston looking like the first number 1 losing to a 16 if they don't turn it up soon. Game tied with 15 minutes left.

Virginia beat them to it two years ago. But they have a chance to lose here. That‘s what happens when you play a terrible schedule.

 

[pj]

She makes a heck of a point.

Imaging being a non english speaker learning english, and coming up against:
bologna
colonel
wednesday

I would give up

The one that gets me is Worcestershire sauce.

Blowout city now. Louisiana just can’t score. Another lesson about focusing on defense against these lower seeds. Your under looks safe.

 

[HuskyHawk]

I’ve got a Parley going with Louisiana +11 and USC tomorrow. Lets keep it close boys.

 

[zls44]

When Rick Barnes is coaching, no lead is safe

 

[HuskyHawk]

This No. Kentucky squad is relentless. Defend every second and rebounds with intensity. Houston looks asleep if more talented.

 

[FLDawg16]

Houston pretty lucky Northern Kentucky is ice cold from three

 

[bazz&boujee]

I know #25 for houston isn’t Carlton but if you just pretend he’s Carlton…….

 

[HCCForever]

Yes. I think 5 for 33 shooting for Norse

 

[AzHusky]

No. Kentucky ran out of gas.
