Did anybody see how badly #2 Wisconsin was losing to #15 Texas A&M - CC? If you've got Wisconsin going far in your bracket, you can't feel too good right now.

Big Ten 4 and 0 and two to go!

Three points from 6-0

28/32 in first round, now looking for that 16/16 in the second round.

Whew!

27/32 in first round, 6/8 so far in second round.

<font color="800000">Gig'Em Aggies! </font> Tough road game we had to play yesterday, but we get rewarded with 2 games at home in San Antonio. Yeah!

Speaking of the Big XII, the only two teams worth a **** are Kansas, which has been upset in the first round the past two years, and UT, which has one SOLID player and a bunch of scrubs? Too bad there isn't another conference vs conference tournament for the ACC to dominate. :o

Heels will win it all <font color="white"> or be the first #1 seed to lose to a #16 seed </font>



Not so fast. I think you forgot the Aggies, a very senior-laden team with great guards and a couple of good big men, which won a road game yesterday in Kentucky against Louisville. Nice going, Selection Committee. Of course, the Ags have been decent on the road....they did beat Kansas at Allen Fieldhouse this year. Also, the Aggies now get to play their next 2 games in San Antonio.....about a 3 hour trip from College Station. :)

Big XII is now 4-1. About to go 6-1 today. There's a good chance the Big XII will get two teams in the Final 4, and 3 teams is not unthinkable.

Chap

Big XII North - unbeaten! :p :D

9/9 so far in round two after Tennnessee withstood Uva. Going to go dig in for the race and some good afternoon hoops games.

Nice win UNLV!

Nice win UNLV!



Nice win for the former K-State coach and player, Lon Kruger.

Big XII is 5-2. Go figure the T-Sippers would decide to mail their performance in today. I'm shocked!!!*note sarcasm* Still got a good shot at 2 Big XII teamw in the final 4. I'm 13/16 for sweet 16 teams and have all 8 of my Elite 8 teams still alive in my bracket. :)

After going 8/8 yesterday I came back down to earth going 4/8 today and losing Nevada and Texas out of the round of 8.

round 1 28/32
round 2 24/32
total 52/64

I'm rooting for Florida, Oregon, Kansas, Pitt, Georgetown, and Ohio St. this Thursday & Friday.

Kansas, Fear the Salukis.

That is all.

ORU can't get by Tejas in the great 8 Durant and Augustine are too sick.

I have the Longhorns over the Turles....I guarantee no one has those two playing each other in the championship game

BEEEEEEEEEEEELIEVE IT! :D:cool:



Still believing it, K Mac? :D

Texas didn't mail it in (as much as I would want to say so too). They discovered they need more than Durant. Augustin isn't there yet.

Durant 30
Abrams 20
Rest of team 18

You can't be the Running 'Horns with that kind of distribution.

Correction: Durant and Abrams didn't mail it in. The rest of the team looked unprepared and scared, and they played like it. That's not typical of a Rick Barnes coached team. That's the worst game I saw the Sippers play all year.

Maybe Randolph Morris should give McRoberts (http://msn.foxsports.com/cbk/story/6596652) a call.

kansas pitt & ohio st

I had Nevada beating Memphis so i could care less who wins the aTm/Memphis game, as long as the winner loses in the next round to the buck nuts

LOL @ McRoberts going pro. I can't see that guy ending up on an NBA roster.

It was a close game earlier in the year at OSU, but I believe Oden was still playing as a southpaw at the time. If OSU can make it a half court game, they should be able to coast by dominating the boards and feeding Oden in the paint. UT can win by keeping it a fast paced game, being effective with the press and shooting good behind the arc. One downfall for UT is how reliant they are on Lofton. If OSU can clamp down on him, the rest of team will have to play lights out to win. My $0.02.

PS. That was a flagrant foul by Oden at the end of their last game. Too bad Xavier couldn't hit free throws when it mattered the most.

Oden was just trying to grab the ball by lifting up the player from behind and shaking it out of him. Certainly a foul, but more... :eek:

I'm hoping OSU can make it to play G'town with Hibbert and Oden on the floor.

A good, ugly game...just not enough offense.

4-0 and hopefully in a F-O-G tonight (Had TX so can only go 7-1 this round).

4-0 last nite.

and I won Night golf at Hornets Nest. Good nite.

Ok...crappy officiating....

SIU-Kansas
A missed shot clock violation against KU (in KU's favor).
A missed goal tending call against KU (in KU's favor).


A&M-Memphis
Touch foul with 3 seconds left. Um, what about "letting the kids decide the outcome?"
The refs overruling their own whistle on the inbounds play. The whistle blew before the ball hit OB, can they overrule the whistle during a time review?

That wasn't a "touch" foul. You can't move/push a guy in midair and expect to get away with it with three seconds to go. "Let the players decide the game" has it's legitimacy, until you push a shooter in midair. Mildly pushing a planted guy may not be that big of a deal, but that guy was in midair and that push definately affected his shot.

Getting a rebound might have helped, or getting that other rebound, or getting that other rebound, or making a layup. The ags had everything in their favor. Congrats to them for a great and exciting year, but officials had nothing to do with their exit.

By the way, congrats to the Salukis, they really did deserve that seed.

We've all seen much more contact in the tourney NOT get called (e.g, the end of regulation for OSU-Xavier prior to Oden's hard foul). That's all I'm saying.

A&M-Memphis
Touch foul with 3 seconds left. Um, what about "letting the kids decide the outcome?"


If you are talking about the foul on the rebound and shot at the end, on the replay I saw, the Memphis guy got slapped in the face. I didn't notice it until they showed the replay from the camera above the basket.

The refs overruling their own whistle on the inbounds play. The whistle blew before the ball hit OB, can they overrule the whistle during a time review?


Give me a break. Did you watch the replay, or are you one of the lame-arse CBS announcers? The ball clearly bounced completely inbounds and then took quite a while to arc and finally hit someone on the bench. They took the right amount of time off the clock.

BTW, those CBS announcers were "teh sUx0r". Uh, note to announcers: when the refs are spending a long time on the replay, and your own guys in the truck are showing the replay over and over and over and zooming in on the ball bouncing completely inbouds, you might take that as a hint to actually look at the replay. Those guys sucked!

ANAGRAM FUN

"teh suxor" = "O, Rhet sux!"

Now back to your regularly scheduled thread . . .

Rhett, by the OB rule, the clock was set correctly, but the whistle happened as soon as the ball crossed the OB line.

This is no different than a NFL ref's "inadvertant" whistle stopping play. They can't overrule their own whistle. Is that rule the same in basketball? That is my question.

7 out of 8 in the elite 8.

Same here. Looking for F-U-G-O for 4-0 this weekend.

Ok...crappy officiating....


A&amp;M-Memphis
Touch foul with 3 seconds left. Um, what about "letting the kids decide the outcome?"
The refs overruling their own whistle on the inbounds play. The whistle blew before the ball hit OB, can they overrule the whistle during a time review?



No, they can't because the clock stops by rule on a whistle. NCAA Rule 5-9-1. They can correct an obvious error, but they shouldn't have taken 1.1 seconds off.....but rather 0.3 seconds off at most. The touch foul is annoying at the end, but it didn't alter the shot or create an advantage at all, and they had been letting much bigger contact go on all night without a foul. But I'm just bitter. I don't the time taken off at the end cost A&amp;M the game,; you can point to the missed free throws and layups for that. But A&amp;M gets a little closer to the basket if the officials didn't erroneously take too much time off. Maybe they get a better shot.

I like the way Gillispie put it after the game. "Memphis did a good job only fouling us TWICE in the second half". I think you can read between the lines to see what he thought of it.

Holy cow! Anyone who missed the end of the D-II title game between Winona State and Barton College missed one HECK of an ending. Most incredible ending for a basketball game I've ever seen, especially for a national title game.

Chap

Did anyone else yell TRAVEL at the end of the Gtown-Vandy game? I did, and was surprised Nantz and Packer didn't. Even during the UNC game, Packer said "Well, if the three officials didn't call it, it didn't happen." And after seeing it on replay, he said he didn't see where Green traveled! Hello, he picked up and reset his first pivot foot AND then changed his pivot foot from the right to the left!

When was the last time you called a foot fault? /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Got 3 out of my 4 Final Four with Florida, UCLA & Georgetown. Missed on Texas A&M. Georgetown beats Ohio State, and UCLA beats Florida and Georgetown in the finals.

(rips final 4 bracket to shreds)

stupid elite 8.

Let's see now....after a slow start, I have all 4 of the final-4 teams and went 10-2 since Thursday. :)

This is really different for me. Usually I'm an "opening weekend wonder" and then slowly fall from the top to the very bottom in the later rounds. It's pretty weird to be climbing the ladder as the tourney goes on. :)

I got 3 outta 4, missed UCLA

Have Ohio State over Florida in the championship, so I can get some serious points if that happens.

It would be funny to see an Ohio St / Florida title game, the same teams facing for the NC in football and basketball. I had Kansas winning it all so I'm done. I really under-estimated UCLA, they are a really nice team.

I have Florida over Georgetown in the final, and if I get that matchup and that result I win my pool by 2 points.

The Yahoo! scenario generator is pretty nice.

LETS GO HOYAS!!!!

11-0 on picks in play this weekend. TX beating UNC was only dead one going into Thursday. UCLA beats G-town in the Final but I'm rooting for OSU if they play like they finally did against Memphis.

I picked the Elite 8... :cool:Then the Final 4... :D

Not a miss in the ENTIRE South Bracket.. :eek:

Go OSU... :D

I hate that Florida won again, so that all the people who really don't know that much about college basketball and blindly picked Florida to repeat won the pools and can brag.

Last year you had ridiculous upsets, with cinderella George Mason in the Final Four, and this year you had almost no upsets.

How bout them <font color="red"> JAYHAWKS!!!!!! </font>

The letdown to Michael Beasley and the Kansas State Wildcats tarnished their unbeaten season, but the Jayhawks should be a #1 seed along with Memphis, Duke, and either North Carolina or UCLA.

If Duke is the #1 seed in the East Regional in Charlotte, their ticket to the Final Four might as well be already punched.

Hey Jeff,
There always seems to be a sleeper in the final four. I'm taking Memphis, Tar Heels, UCLA, and my dark horse is Purdue!

BTW: Bob Knight is a quitter.

Boilermakers fan, eh? You gotta love that they won that physical battle over the weekend at Wisconsin, who almost never lose at home. Another test for Purdue will be Michigan St. on Tuesday.

This Purdue alum loves to hear the Boilers talked up! If the prediction becomes reality, it would be quite ironic: The last time the Boilers were in the Final Four, it was the season before Gene Keady started coaching at Purdue, and then the next time they got there, it would be shortly after he left!

Gene does have at least one former player coaching well: Kevin Stallings, at Vandy, I think?

And yeah, so does Knight, but Alford was an overachiever even before Knight got ahold on him.

Coach Knight needed to quit, imo, as his passion was totally depleted. He was getting whipped by Texas earlier in the year, and he exhibited absolutely zero emotion. I think the faders will be better off.

The Jayhawks are going down tonight.

Nice Call!!! :D
<font color="orange"> HOOK-EM!!! </font>

how about them HORNS!!! did anyone see the clock work with .2 seconds left in the womens tennesee game?? talk about a quick finger :D

The Lady Vols got away with one. I thought the foul at the end was a good call, just not sure it happened in regulation. I thought Tennessee fouled with .2 seconds left on the throw in. It should have been two free throws for Rutgers.

The ending to the 'Nova/Gtown was just as bad. Horrible call to decide the game.

yep saw that one too.. but I LOVE the HOYAS so I wasn't too disappointed :D

The Jayhawks are going down tonight.



Great call. :cool:

heck of a game last night!! the horns played well.. :D

Sure was a good game. I picked the wife up at 8:30 and drove by the Erwin center and got a pair of lower level seats for $40. A lot more exciting than back in the day when I used to doze off at the UT basketball games.

The ending to the 'Nova/Gtown was just as bad. Horrible call to decide the game.


Here's the video (http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/news/story?id=3242789). Agreed that it's a bad call at the worst point possible.

the Rutgers Tennessee women's game was much much worse

Big win over Michigan State, Bill. 10 in a row now and your Boilermakers are really rolling! :cool:

this is great... Pat Knight just gets first win and gives credit to Jim Boeheim at the end of the game! GO SYRACUSE!!

For those that didnt watch he said something about watching a Boeheim zone D video.

side note... i'm sure it wasnt this video ... (nevermind... realized Boeheim swears in it and even if I put a disclaimer before people would click on it i wouldnt want to get booted off here fore it... just search Boeheim and 10 games on youtube ... note... its not from this season)

wtf Jeff?!... either you didnt vote yet or your dont have faith in Pitt like I do! ;)




Swistak,

If you watched the Big East tournament, Pitt's foul shooting was atrocious and I think it will catch up with them. Memphis' free-throwing shooting is even worse, and I have Pitt beating them in my brackets. However, I don't think Pitt beats Texas in essentially a home game to be played in Houston. :(

Anyone think Memphis can beat Texas?

I don't even have Memphis playing Texas. I have Pitt upsetting Memphis. The talent level in the tournament is INSANE this year. You could make a legitimate argument for about 10-15 schools winning it all and not sound like a moron.

my bad, I musta read something wrong on espn last night, I thought they were playing each other soon. I'm not following it too closely, obviously! I am surprized to see no one picked Duke for the final four, or to win it in the pole. Even if they haven't had a perfect season...

I can still hope Jeff! :)

all four #1's make the final four this year, and all four #10 seeds win in round 1. I'd like to see UNC/UCLA but I think Kansas and UCLA will play for it all

I have Kansas and UCLA as well. However, there is no way Butler will lose to South Alabama, one 10 seed out, count it now. I have Miami as a 7 winning as well, but that one is tougher to call.

37 people signed up as of now, Discs for the Top 4 places, I will find/add more if we continue gaining more people.

55 now with just over an hour to tip off!!!!

I got u all beat!!!

Oh CMON XAVIER!!!! Im losin points off the bat!

we have the same final 4... but you just got hurt by xavier (i would've been hurt the other way if they lost)... bring it free-zach!!! (not sure if you saw the dg monthly video from vti yet but thats what he called you guys... the 'freezachs')

Even when I miss, I'm still being made...

<font color="red"> giggle! Go Memphis!</font>

It's been a really fun tournament but I hate that all four #1 seeds advanced for the first time ever. In bracket pools every year I see a lot of people who don't really know much about college basketball picking all four #1 seeds to advance and these folks may have gotten unfairly rewarded this year.

Davidson's run was really something - they were almost George Mason from two years ago. To be honest, I am still shocked that Memphis escaped the South bracket. I had Stanford in the Final Four, and that Memphis beat Texas in Houston is really something.

Whats up Kansas taking it to over time........ :D:D:D

Collins seals the deal sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetttttttt :D:D:DWhat a game!!!!!!!!

Congrats to my wife for picking Kansas and staying in the #2 slot... and Congratulations to Liz!!!

Yes, i had a fellow Kansan over for the game. It was the quietest Mace has ever been. Of course there were two sleeping children in the house, though my wife would say there were four children in the house.

I blame the coach because they had a To right before it happened.

zeller is out for the season. [censored]

The first foul was somewhat understandable.

The second (right after a timeout) was absolutely inexcusable. No reason a Division I college basketball coach does not remind his players what the situation is at that point.

Are you serious at that level both are inexcusable unless your from Syracuse

the 1st is only excusable when comparing it to the 2nd

I agree that no way is that a call in the Big East, at least for the men.

The Panthers didn't need the help.

So this Pitt U-conn game is going to shake up the Top 4 in all the Polls next week. Oklahoma looks like s shoe in for #1 but with U-conn , Pitt. and Carolina all with 2 loss's all with similar records against ranked teams (all are close to 4 and 1) it is a crap shoot where everyone ends up.

this all hinges on Carolina beating NC State tonight. if that happens (and it better) who know who wil end up #2 next week

GO HEELS!!!

March Madness is here. I am managing a tournament bracket for disc golfers. Everybody join in.

The bracket name is "Lucky Disc Golfers".
The password is "discgolf".

The top 3 will get some cool disc golf stuff. More about that later.

You can't make your picks until Selection Sunday, March 15, but you can register now.


Here is the Link to Join (http://tournament.fantasysports.yahoo.com/t1/register/joinprivategroup_assign_team?GID=33899&amp;P=discgolf)

Only six people signed up so far. C'mon, everybody - it's free!

Okay, This is a free deal. You get to see which disc golfers know something about college basketball and are lucky at the same time. In the process, there will be some cool disc golf stuff given away (that means stuff for free) after each round of games.

When it is over, the top 3 get more cool disc golf stuff for making some predictions about college basketball.

So, what are you waiting for? Have some fun for FREE and take a chance to get some cool disc golf stuff from our sponsor, Texas Oklahoma Disc Golf Company.

Or as we say here in Okie land, "What are ya, chickin??" :D:D

How many of you thought Villanova was gonna blow it against American?

::: raises hand :::

I had West Virginia in my Elite 8. :(

I do too, which is why I was freaking out!

While some high seeds uncharacteristically struggled, from an upset standpoint, it's been a fairly boring tournament so far. Wake Forest and West Virginia were the only real shockers, imo. I wouldn't be surprised however if Wisconsin beats Xavier today, and USC beats Michigan St. :eek:

There go the "W"s messing things up just like the ex-Prez.

Wow, I would have bet someone $100 before the tournament started that Michigan State would not have been playing in the championship game.

I took second...what do I win? :D

Butler in the national championship game?!? :eek:

Indeed they made it.. Should be a great match up. Don't count that #5 out.. Especially the way this years tourney played out. Go DUKE !!!

WOW! That was as good as it gets.

#1 teams are dropping like flies! :eek:

The way Kansas State has looked since the beginning of January, I thought that they would get blown out again by Kansas like they did back on Jan. 29th. Instead they trounce the Jayhawks 84-68. :eek:

Texas and Kansas fans may beg to differ, but imo, this year's championship is still Ohio State's to lose though.

You know that wherever he is today, John Biscoe (a VCU alum) is smiling like the butcher's dog. :D

butler in the national championship game?!? :eek:
again! :d
