San Diego having their way with UConn, 42-31. San Diego vs. Western Kentucky in the round of 32?

stevew · 03-21-2008, 04:09 PM

Is this the first year they've used such a weird lineup(abnormally far from the basket) on Free Throws?

Izulde · 03-21-2008, 04:10 PM

I'm dying with laughter at Spoiled Daughters still ahead of UConn.

Jas_lov · 03-21-2008, 04:15 PM

San Diego imploding. Down to a 1 point lead.

Jas_lov · 03-21-2008, 04:21 PM

Nice shot for three. This should be another great finish.

Jas_lov · 03-21-2008, 04:36 PM

That was awesome. San Diego with a 2 point lead. 1:30 to play.

sterlingice · 03-21-2008, 04:37 PM

What a nice little shot under the hoop

SI

Jas_lov · 03-21-2008, 04:37 PM

4 point lead! 50 seconds left!

Noop · 03-21-2008, 04:38 PM

Well atleast I had UCONN losing in the next round.

Jas_lov · 03-21-2008, 04:40 PM

If San Diego holds on I think everybody will have lost at least 1 sweet 16 team. Unless you had Western Kentucky or San Diego winning 2 games.

sterlingice · 03-21-2008, 04:43 PM

"And they're tied"?

WTF? Someone needs to wake the announcers up

SI

Izulde · 03-21-2008, 04:44 PM

59-58 20.1 seconds... Come on Spoiled Daughters!

Jas_lov · 03-21-2008, 04:44 PM

Apparently we're tied. Tim Brando sucks.

Front Office Midget · 03-21-2008, 04:44 PM

Haha yeah, that is HORRIBLE announcing, to not even be aware of the score with 20 seconds to go.

I had San Diego picked to win this; this is pretty exciting.

Jas_lov · 03-21-2008, 04:48 PM

That little white guy should be able to make free throws.

Jas_lov · 03-21-2008, 04:49 PM

HE HAD THE LAYUP!

sterlingice · 03-21-2008, 04:50 PM

Dang, tough luck for SD. I sense this was their best shot to win. Tho I've been wrong a lot before

SI

sterlingice · 03-21-2008, 04:51 PM

They had gotten quite a bit of luck on the glass and boards in the last few minutes of the game so I guess lady luck had to go against them at some point.

SI

Izulde · 03-21-2008, 04:51 PM

Damn

I wanted them to win in regulation.

SirFozzie · 03-21-2008, 04:52 PM

Well, the refs blew two calls there, looks like from watching it via MMOD. The UConn player looked out of bounds when he knocked the ball back into play, and then the San Diego player definitely fouled the UConn player when there was still time on the clock.

Jas_lov · 03-21-2008, 04:56 PM

Pomare has fouled out. That sucks.

Izulde · 03-21-2008, 05:01 PM

Fuck, UConn with the lead.

Jas_lov · 03-21-2008, 05:01 PM

AND 1!!!!!!

Eaglesfan27 · 03-21-2008, 05:02 PM

Some great OT's today.

Jas_lov · 03-21-2008, 05:02 PM

If only San Diego could make its free throws. UConn will probably sink both here.

Front Office Midget · 03-21-2008, 05:05 PM

Yeah, free throws have been really key here. Hopefully San Diego can draw something up to win this game, but not having Johnson and Pomare doesn't help.

sterlingice · 03-21-2008, 05:06 PM

One more time...

SI

sterlingice · 03-21-2008, 05:06 PM

WOO!

SI

Front Office Midget · 03-21-2008, 05:06 PM

Woooooooooooooooooo!

Jas_lov · 03-21-2008, 05:06 PM

YES!!!!!!!

Eaglesfan27 · 03-21-2008, 05:07 PM

YES!! I love seeing UConn go down!

Izulde · 03-21-2008, 05:07 PM

UNBELIEVABLE!!

cartman · 03-21-2008, 05:10 PM

That royally screws my brackets. That's what I get for listening to my co-worker who went to UConn.

Jas_lov · 03-21-2008, 05:10 PM

I think this is our first upset win by a mid major over a power conference school.

Warhammer · 03-21-2008, 05:12 PM

Is the only team that underperforms more than UConn Kansas?

Izulde · 03-21-2008, 05:12 PM

YES!!!!!

Even cooler, I just checked my brackets and I had San Diego on one of them for the hell of it, just cuz my best friend lives there. So awesome!

Everyone probably lost a sweet 16 team though with Drake and UConn losing. You didn't have them going past UCLA in the sweet 16 did you?

sterlingice · 03-21-2008, 05:14 PM

UCLA gifted an even easier bracket than we all thought...

So you are saying that picking a school that has a history of early March Madness flameouts runs in the family????

I had Drake in the Sweet 16. But I had them playing San Diego.

mauchow · 03-21-2008, 05:47 PM

This could be the worst set of four games. . .

Not sure yet... I think i'll play Mount and Blade during it for the time being.

Swaggs · 03-21-2008, 06:00 PM

Here's an interesting tidbit.

WVU's senior PG, Darris Nichols, set an NCAA record for WVU last night in their win over Arizona. He has gone his entire career of 139 games without fouling out, which sets the record. He is also West Virginia's all-time leader in games played.

Siena seems to be a popular upset pick and I'm hoping St Joe's can give Oklahoma a game as well.

That brings back some memories.

I've got St. Joe's as an upset special today as well. So far, only St. Mary's and Gonzaga have been the only Catholic schools to lose today, on Good Friday, with Georgetown and San Diego moving on. Villanova, Siena, St. Joseph, and Mt. St. Mary's have yet to play. I don't hold out much hope for Mt. St. Mary's.

Jas_lov · 03-21-2008, 06:35 PM

I wish they'd switch me to a competitive game and preferably one where Packer and Nantz aren't kissing Tyler Hansborough's ass the whole time. Sienna, St. Joes, and Oregon seem to be doing well early.
