Tournament (Non-UConn) Thread - Sweet 16

This Barchen Restaurant & Beer Garden in Omaha looks happening. I don't know if any bars in our area have watch parties.
I think beards are required for entry, for everyone.

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.

Farabello's role is to shoot 3s. Anything else is a bonus.

Scheierman is absolutely carrying them right now. They desperately need Alexander and Ashworth to figure out a way to create in the second half.

An ode to their history as a mid major.

Big East elevated mid-major replacements when the big boys left.

I’d be pretty pissed too if I gave my guys open looks all game and they clanged 30 3’s off the rim.

So…can that be sold as a game worn jersey?

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.

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.

His presence is like a glass of skim milk.

Just opened this thread and saw all the same comments about Mitchell that I felt right from the beginning of the game.

He was jogging up and down the court, played awful D, bricked shot after shot, turned the ball over in bizarre ways.

I don’t know all the Marquette players names but most looked like they were playing a Sunday morning pickup game at the park after a late night on the town.

Someone in the local Wisconsin media needs to dig into what was going on with them. Sickness? Flu? Bad calamari? Dumping points/the game? Out late partying?

That team didn’t resemble any version of Marquette that I’d seen all season. The one that always play hard, with passion, and smart. Something’s amiss here, and it’s not just a team missing threes.

It was the Illuminati! They’ve always got it in for the Catholic schools.

Joke all you want, the major college betting/point shaving scandal is on the horizon, only question is who's involved.

No doubt. They HAVE to kill player props at minimum

Nah. People will just go to the offshores. Won’t solve anything

Watching Houston without Shead is just painful.

 

[tuvent08]

The replay of the Houston/Duke game should be shown in Gitmo.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Creighton looks tired.

 

[jrazz12]

Both these teams are atrocious

 

[JCisthegoat]

I’d like to see Houston try not to double flip

 

[uconnbaseball]

Tennessee is probably the best team in the field other than us (unless you mean UH Duke)

Lol That looks like a young man headed straight to the xfer portal before he even showers.

I wouldn't blame him.

Houston Duke is a pebble fight

 

[Huskiefan23]

Kalkbrenner plays like he's 5'10.

 

[Ripper32]

Kalk got punked by James. Not a good look

 

[kobe]

ashworth, who i believe sold my life insurance policy, is in his own personal hell trying to do anything with zeigler.

 

[tuvent08]

Houston down 6 with 10 minutes left and legit wondering if they can score that many points.
