NCAA Tournament Thread

[BrookJersey Redmen]

Our loss turned the Tournament into the NIT the Not Interested Tournament. For me.

If we had some Big East mojo I would have some interest.

 

[fan since 65]

I'm actually rooting for either Duke (2) or Michigan State (1) at this point.

Blasphemy!

 

[NCJohnnie]

Blasphemy!

Not for me - I like Duke and love Izzo

 

[bamafan]

Same here. I assume I might watch the Final Four and Championship game but if Duke is in it, that assumption might go right out the window. It's also the second weekend of baseball so there's that.

Yeah because there’s only about 973 games left in the baseball season at that point.

For my part I will be watching all of the rest of the games. Same as I go to all the BET games whether SJU is in them or not and bought a ticket to the non-SJU session in Providence. Ball is life, as they say!

Wow a mature adult how refreshing.

Nah - just love the game.

 

[Ralph318!]

Nah - just love the game.

Do we have a large group going to Newark? I hate Duke since the Refs jobbed us against them years back. But I would like to see Cooper Flagg in person.

 

[Alumni Hall]

I too will watch all the rest of the games! Even might make a trip to the NIT Final Four in Indy

After a few days not thinking about the tournament, and the signing of Sanon, I’m interested again. Curious how Arkansas plays, interested in Flaggs progress, and rooting for Michigan State.

 

[TX Redman]

Be interesting to see how Arkansas plays. Our neighbor and good friend bleeds Texas Tech red, so we will root for the Red Raiders. Not BB related but Mike Leach was one of my all time favorite coaches in any sport.

There's going to be some anger here if Texas Tech zones them into under 50 points. They were completely befuddled when Kansas implemented the zone.

 

[vegasman2000]

Not gonna lie,.I am very bitter that we aren't playing tomorrow

 

[GoldenLeaf]

Blasphemy!

No to the Big 10.

No to the Big 10.

Dislike other conferences in this order:

1. ACC (Poachers)
one that trespasses or steals or takes something from someone else

2. SEC (Goobers)
a person from the southeastern US, especially Georgia or Arkansas.
naive, ignorant, or foolish person

3. Big 12 (Hicks)
a person from the country, especially a simple, unsophisticated one.
"notices of agricultural sales are an irresistible lure for hicks and hayseeds"

4. B1G (Hayseeds who suffer Dyscalculia)
It's called the Big 10 and has 18 teams, math isn't taught in these schools, (e.g. dyscalculia sufferers).

5. All the other Conferences (Second fiddles)
one that plays a supporting or subservient role.

This is an excellent summary. I would put the Big 10 above the Big 12 since I like the way they play the game in the Big 12, but it's nitpicking. Great job!

 

[sjc88]

Wow. BYU/Alabama is at a frenetic pace. This could be a high scoring affair. Bama already 7-14 from 3. 30-26 at the 10 minute mark.

Hmm , I think most of SJU fans and a great many BB Experts wonder a lot of things about our game plan Vs Arkansas .

I agree that Arkansas could not handle the Kansas Zone and were on the way to winning until Mayo and Dickenson fumbled the game away for the Jay Hawks.

Why Florida guard Walter Clayton Jr.’s game is drawing comparisons to Stephen Curry

As Florida prepares to play in "The House That Steph Built," Clayton Jr.'s range and off-the-dribble shooting prowess reminds some of Curry.
