Tournament (Non-UConn) Thread - 2nd Round

[uconngb]

Barnes doing his usual

1-21 from three is pretty ridiculously bad.

Pretty sure anyone on this board would shoot a higher percentage

 

[Tenspro2002]

Oh my God the Texas player took a flying knee right in the pills.

The rent was due for Brock Cunningham after all the flagrant/dirty fouls

 

[Dogdeacon]

They won their tourney. They earned it.

What the hell is going on here?

I think we have a crowded bandwagon and the newcomers just expect UConn to get a cozy run to the title even easier than last year.

I haven’t the foggiest idea where the overall #1 gets the easiest opponent in every round entitlement came from. Huskies were not #1, the last what, 6 weeks of the season excepting 3 days when the brackets were mostly set?! And probably the brackets were mostly set before those last 3 days just cuz folks didn’t want to work on the weekend .. OR there is a massive anti-UConn conspiracy.

What a block tho.

I got fired from the J Paul Getty art museum for continuously leaving early in April 86 to watch the Rangers in the NHL playoffs at 4pm puck drops. Whalers too that year.

That was a great (and surprising) playoffs. As if there wasn't enough compelling sports on today, the Rangers & Panthers are tied at 2 with 11 minutes left in the third. Winner takes the lead for President's trophy

Aßmas is aß

 

[aceboon]

Texas should have tried to go for a quick two, taking that much time off and then going for a desperation 3 was not it

I’m making a point on team quality.

NC State is nothing but b a bid thief.

Max Abmas 101

 

[DaMuttzNutt]

I don’t like the thought of playing this Tennessee team. They have some size that could be an issue. They will give Purdue a real challenge if it gets that far

 

[superjohn]

Trey Alexander needs to snap out of it.

 

[REB1094]

Tough way for Abmas to go out, but that’s just the Max Abmas Experience

Kalkbrenner looks so good out of conference

 

[FanInNC]

It seemed like Oakland still touched the ball after it got passed the NC State’s players pinky.

Correct but let’s not let facts get in the way of things.

 

[Jimdish255]

Nice game by Tennessee. Did what they needed to against a motivated Texas team. Texas was a chess piece short this season.

 

[superjohn]

Creighton has gotten every shot they want and they're bricking everything. Just keep feeding Kalk.

 

[kobe]

creighton is so mediocre against any athletic team with a semblance of talent. frauds.

 

[Tenspro2002]

That Cuisinart guy is killing Creighton, who of course are shooting 20% on mostly wide-open 3s after shooting about 60% against us.

 

[auror]

Creighton has absolutely dominated this game and they're down 2.

Dying to know what the Shot Quality score is right now.

They should be blowing Oregon out. They've been wide open the entire half.

Rule #1 on this board

 

[FanInNC]

They won’t stay on floor with Marquette ( provided Marquette can handle Colorado, who has 2 maybe 3 pros)

I mean what are we doing here?

They managed to stay on the court with UNC. In fact led basically the entire game, fully controlled the game. Same vs Duke.

Could Marquette win? Sure. Could they win by 10 or more? Sure. But put some respect on State’s name. On a heater right now.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

When Creighton starts cold, they don't turn it around. They are in big trouble in this game.

 

[87Xfer]

Seriously who is this goofball?

he was a d'bag in the chat the other day

 

[August_West]

McDermott with a perfect game plan against Altmans zone and his players just can’t shoot ( unless it’s UConn)

 

[HuskyHawk]

I think they’ll put Oregon away in the 2nd half.

Totally on a heater. Totally respect it. Marquette should win by 10. ACC is soft, good for State to parlay that into a win over an 6 seed and an 14 seed. and the chickens come home to roost eventually. Marquette isn’t Oakland.

Im trying out of conference loyalty but just can’t root for Creighton, Kalkbrenner is just too much of a deutch
