Tournament (Non-UConn) Thread - Sweet 16

[BugsyCT]

A Houston-Tennessee semi would be quite the steel cage match

 

[Bomber36]

Naismith POY finalist list annoys me.

 

[jibsey]

Houston cannot shoot. I understand a rock fight but how were they number 1?

 

[WhereistheDove?]

LOL at Tyrese Proctor. He comes out of every contact mean-mugging the opposing player and trying to look hard but is so soft.

 

[Jaydumo20]

I live in Nashville and it kinda sucks seeing people come out of the woodwork and pretend to care about this UT team. Only reason why I want them to lose

 

[WhereistheDove?]

Creighton is a great team and good for the league and this may sound weird and inconsequential , but their uniforms ( color and print) are so mid major.

An ode to their history as a mid major.

I typically hate duke. But houston plays ugly basketball that bends the rules

And we know Duke never bent any rules.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Alexander needs to stop the 1-on-1 and wait for Tennessee to overplay, then hit the cutter backdoor. It is there every possession.

 

[JCisthegoat]

We’d be laying 7+ against Duke and we’d win by 20

 

[Karmacop]

Tennessee is just begging to be back-doored.

Not touching this one.

 

[Bomber36]

Real ugly 1st half for Houston and Duke.

 

[Karmacop]

Shead out until at least halftime. This is a golden opportunity for the Dukies.

 

[87Xfer]

Scheyer's the least inspiring interview ever.

 

[WhereistheDove?]

Well that was a horrible first half of basketball.

 

[John]

Scheyer seems underwhelming in his halftime quick interview

 

[Jaydumo20]

Creighton never fouls. That is gonna end up helping them a lot in this game if they can keep it close

 

[BugsyCT]

Houston led 8-0 less than 3 minutes into the game. They scored 14 points the rest of the half. But they're only down 1.

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

Scheyer really commands respect as a leader of men. My 4 year old Labrador who’s afraid of the mailman has a more commanding presence.

FTFY

You clearly don’t understand The Brotherhood.

 

[Bomber36]

Creighton hitting their 3s.

He’s just clichés and platitudes. It’s like he’s got the same five stock answers for every question.

 

[Ripper32]

Let's see if scheyer can calm his guys down and adjust. He's not the best tactician.

 

[Bomber36]

Could actually hurt them if they have too many fouls to give late. Eats up a lot of time.Especially if they’re down by more than 2 possessions.

 

[JCisthegoat]

What did Clark Kellogg just say LOL

@RobDauster favorite player in college.

As a Cowboys fan (unfortunately), he reminds me of Jason Garrett.

And it’s no wonder that Garrett used to always go to Duke games.

He traumatized me so much, I can’t even watch him on NBC. A complete loser, his “coach speak” made me sick.

 

[storrsroars]

Watching Houston defend under the hoop vs Duke/Tenn/Creighton is like watching two different sports.

Tennessee usually doesn't look this good against good teams. They are playing well tonight.

Farabello and Miller kind of suck for Creighton. It is hard to win when you only have 4 players capable of playing at a high level.
