NCAA Tournament Discussion

[quote="mjmaherjr" post=335234][quote="fordham96" post=335225]This Tennessee/Purdue game is tremendous. This is the 3rd B10/SEC game in the Tourney already that has involved a big double digit comeback. Maryland came back against LSU even took a late lead before losing at the end. Tennessee blew a huge lead to Iowa before winning in OT and now here UT was down 18 in 2nd half to Purdue and have stormed back...[/quote] I was texting with my 114 friends a little while ago saying how much I havent really loved the games so far except for the Maryland game. This one was my favorite just now and I only watched since about 5 minutes left in regulation[/quote]

As much as I hated the ending, the UCF-Duke game was one of the best ncaa tournament games you could ever ask for. So much drama. So many big shots. Tacko Fall vs Zion. The heartbreaking missed putback at the end. It had everything

Wow......the Tennessee/Purdue game was awesome!

Sadly, watching these games makes you realize how far away we are. These guys have size, play as a team and attack the boards like it's life or death.

That kid Cline on Purdue was en fuego hitting step back 3s over bigger defender. Great shot making late in that game by both teams.
 
Has there ever been a less impressive 1 seed than Virginia?

I understand it’s their style of play but god damn they throw up a lot of bricks

Oregon giving uva a taste of their own medicine
 
It was an NIT game, but last night's Lipscomb/NC State game was a doozy. I watched the last 15 minutes of game play, and saw a heckuva game.

Lipscomb is headed to MSG after a one-point win.

Tariq Owens is now headed to the elite eight. I believe anyone who questioned his grad transfer decision might want to rethink that. Personally very happy for him. Classy individual who worked hard, got his degree and now gets some glory on the national stage. SJU might dream of the elite eight, but since Ron Artest and his crew 20 years ago it has been just a dream and nothing more.

I know there’s some here who are still holding onto that record, so FYI if Oregon can pull this out it’ll confirm that the ACC can’t get 3 teams to the final four like the big east did in 85.

I'm not even remotely worried about it even with three regions still alive for them. Hopefully due to UNC going down in flames tomorrow.

Careful, you are going to trigger some members.
 
[quote="MJDinkins" post=335258]Will Michigan make it to 40 points?[/quote]

Looked like Michigan was just going through the motions today. Settled for too many 3pt attempts.

I’m a little worried about it. I think Purdue is better than UVA right now, but I do worry that both Unc and Duke will get there.

[quote="mjmaherjr" post=335224]Watching Florida State and Leanord Hamilton keeps reminding me of the guy in the Roots that play for Jimmy Fallon Show [attachment=820]858A10F0-AEAA-4F8C-B97D-4C770D1EB551.jpeg[/attachment] [attachment=821]1F623CA2-CB7B-4AC7-A4CB-F95F5C96AF33.png[/attachment][/quote]

When I look at Leonard Hamilton i keep thinking, man, I can't believe he is 70 years old!!! I thought he was younger.
 
We all know Duke is going to win it all after the UCF game. Refs swallowed whistles for Duke on several no-calls in the final seconds. UCF also missed shots that go in 95% of the time in the final seconds including a 2 on 1 alley oop.
