Tournament (Non-UConn) Thread - 1st Round

[Jimdish255]

Duke is not going to like JMU.

Picking Wisconsin to the Final Four is not looking great right now.

I was really pulling for Longwood

 

[The Yakk]

Congrats to yet another Big10 favorite pooping the bed in round 1.

Lock this thread. Who's next

 

[UCTitleTown]

Baylor looks dangerous.

 

[uconngb]

Duke. And they can beat Duke.

Dukes over Dook

 

[auror]

How are they a 12 seed?

They lost twice to App State, which tanked their predictive and resume metrics.

 

[WhereistheDove?]

Duke better buckle up. JMU will give them everything they can handle.

If the Duke I watched today plays the JMU I watched today, Scheyer is going home.

Lol

That had no bearing on their seed. Have you met this Committee??? They could have won both those games, been 33-1 and it wouldn’t have made one shred of difference. Because UVA deserved a 10 seed.

 

[Jimdish255]

Utah State has a pretty complete group out there and they play well together. A&M is going to have to come up with some magic or some zebra love to get back in the game.

So it will be the JM Dukes vs Duke Sunday.

Duke vs Dukes. Let’s get Duquesne in for a 3 way

 

[Jimdish255]

Well TCU getting a LOT of zebra love now.

 

[uconnbill]

Edey at 30pts-21rebs with 6 minutes left, Purdue up by over 20.

Those playing against him were 6-8 inches shorter and 50 lbs. less. He is going to score his points you need to limit the rest of the team

The don't watch the games.

Eye test used to be a thing.

The refs will keep it tight as we know because the NCAA loves Duke and the other "blue bloods"

 

[Jimdish255]

TCU just got away with a clear flagrant.

 

[Tommyboy]

Grand Canyon has some serious length

 

[aceboon]

St Marys caught a bad draw

 

[kobe]

gcu going to the second weekend fellas. im sold.

 

[Jimdish255]

Utah State is no joke. Next up Purdue.

 

[ec33]

Putting the nice looking high seeds on late at night.

 

[aceboon]

St Mary's is completely outmatched

 

[xclamations]

Go Lopes; they're literally down the road from me...

 

[gsmooth]

St Marys caught a bad draw

St Mary's is getting run off the court. The entire crowd seems to be pulling for Grand Canyon.Maybe it has something to do with the game being in Spokane which is Gonzaga 's hometown and the #1 rival of St Marys. They play such a slow pace but they are going to have to play faster being down double digits

So what? He had a great game. He’s now 1 of 3 with 30-20 in tournament history in last 50 years.
