Tournament (Non-UConn) Thread - 2nd Round

[superjohn]

McDermott was animated tonight.

Both teams look awful but Creighton looks shockingly awful. They both look like they've run out of gas, Creighton has no depth and it looks like it's caught up to them. Guys aren't even making layups.

It just took Creighton 45 minutes to warm up.

Hopefully Marquette can cool off CU tomorrow.
I prefer CU personally but in this circumstance go Big East.

Altman gonna be thinking about having Dante in on offense to get fouled and shoot FTs all offseason

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Did not see that coming. Creighton couldn't throw it in the ocean for most of that game, missing wide open 3 after wide open 3. Respect for toughing it out on a night they were cold

 

[August_West]

I thank Kansas for making this let it ride possible

 

[aceboon]

Creighton got far enough, they can lose now

 

[AllHusky]

Love watching McDermott coach, he seems to really enjoy himself, almost laughing as they went into OT

 

[BugsyCT]

Creighton was very fortunate to pull this one out. They looked lackadaisical much of the game and were down 4 in the final minute.

Survive & advance.

This game reminds me of any Virginia game in 2019 where they got really fortunate. Creighton should count their lucky stars, but congrats.Hopefully UConn and Marquette follow them to the Sweet 16.

OK. What's it gotta feel like to be the bench players for Oregon who didn't get into this game? They only played two bench players in a game that went to 2 OT.

ETA - apparently a third guy got into the game in the 2nd OT for two minutes.

Yep, that was the game. Shot one free throw to that point and by the worst guy possible

Big fan of him. Really good coach and good dude. Loyalty matters to him, he's turned down some big jobs and a lot more money to stay at Creighton.

He was smiling at Altman they’re besties

The inbounder for Oregon fukkked up at the end by giving the ball to Dante when they were up 2. If he gets that to Cuisinard we all are having a different conversation

No, I want to see them vs Purdue. Assumes of course they get past Utah St and the Zags.

 

[MilliniumPrince]

CU got lucky. They ran into a team that is 2.5 players deep, and they ran out of gas.

 

[uconn_jack]

And Creighton over TN of course.

 

[Irvine]

Once upon a time wasn't Oregon supposed to be a college basketball powerhouse with all their Nike resources?

Maybe it’s less than 80 now

It is still 80.

Disgusting game

Kalkbrenner hitting that 3 in OT was hilarious and very fun

@kobe Going to the NIT in Vegas instead of NYC will be fun I guess

Congrats on getting to the Sweet 16. Hopefully UConn and Marquette can join your boys there.

 

[Kolumbo]

Yale and James Madison. Those are the upsets I expect to see later today. I'll throw in the Lopes too.
