Tournament thread - Day 2

[intlzncster]

Considering we landed more highly rated recruits at the same position than these CT kids in the same class, I don't fault the staff. But it still is a little sickening seeing all these CT kids we passed on being mentioned over and over today.

Well, somebody's developing them, so there's that. Let's take our highly rate guys and do the same.

When did Syracuse learn how to shoot? I'm not used to the ball going in the basket.

Every year it seems like UVA barely squeaks by a super low rated team in the 1st round. No arguing their success in the regular season, but maybe playing at a snails pace and increasing the variance isn't the best strategy for NCAA runs? They don't help themselves in that they never have the overwhelming athletic advantage most 1 and 2 seeds have.

Shot clock violation with no remote attempt. That's more like it.

Princeton on PEDs. haha

Basically. Losing their best athlete kills their long term hopes for this run, I think.

That said, they will probably light up UMBC in the 2nd.

!@#$!@#$ Syracuse keeps hitting buckets. I hate this.

 

[joober jones]

Without Vanderbilt I thought I'd have an okay bracket this year. I was wrong.

 

[Travelman6]

Virginia runs away with it 57-36 or 63-39 type of score.

This Virginia game reminds me of the time we struggled to beat the Albany Great Danes in ‘06. As I recall, the Danes had a 12-point lead halfway through the second half before the slipper stopped fitting.

 

[intlzncster]

What a great sequence!!!! IN YOUR FACE SYRACUSE!!

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

UMBC up 7 lolwut

 

[intlzncster]

[uconnphil2016]

Why is it University of Maryland Baltimore County instead of just University of Maryland-Baltimore?

 

[intlzncster]

Aaaaaaand the kid shoots an airball FT. Nice one guy

 

[intlzncster]

We were sluggish that whole tourney (Albany, Kentucky, Washington, and of course GMason). Fortunate that we escaped as many of those games as we did.

 

[CTMike]

UMBC!!!

 

[Travelman6]

Ok.... Let's take it slow... Don't get too pumped yet. Shhhh. I want it btw but shhh

 

[intlzncster]

Watching what?

[BugsyCT]

Way too early. Just saying.

 

[ASweet3781]

Syracuse TCU. Go Horned Frogs

Yeah a #1 seed is losing by double digits in the 2nd half to a #16 but Syracuse! Yeah. No.
