The true most wonderful time of the year (Ncaa mens Basketball tournament) - Page 5

Easy Mac · 03-19-2004, 11:02 PM

UCF gave that game away... they playted scred for the last 5 minutes.

sterlingice · 03-19-2004, 11:11 PM

Wish I'd been watching this UAB/Washington game rather than the KU blowout the last 20 minutes but we're locked into local coverage

SI

WussGawd · 03-19-2004, 11:21 PM

What a great, great game UDub vs. Alabama-Birmingham was. Best one yet, IMO.

vex · 03-19-2004, 11:23 PM

That's some scorin too.

JonInMiddleGA · 03-19-2004, 11:23 PM

So ... what might the over/under on UK-UAB be? 200? 220?

TargetPractice6 · 03-19-2004, 11:24 PM

I can't imagine Kentucky playing such poor defense two games in a row. I wouldn't expect the score the be that high.

sterlingice · 03-20-2004, 02:04 PM

Really classy of the Puke fans chanting "air ball" to the Seton Hall guy shooting a free throw when they're up by 21 with less than 10 minutes left in the game.

SI

JeeberD · 03-20-2004, 02:30 PM

Go Nevada!

Go WAC!!!

sterlingice · 03-20-2004, 02:32 PM

I'm glad they got away from that abysmal Duke game. This is fun and exciting!

SI

Ragone · 03-20-2004, 02:33 PM

expecting class from duke fans is like expecting quinn snyder to not violate any ncaa rules

WussGawd · 03-20-2004, 02:36 PM

Nevada 24-13. Wow.

JeeberD · 03-20-2004, 02:41 PM

27-13

kingfc22 · 03-20-2004, 02:41 PM

These refs SUCK!!!

korme · 03-20-2004, 02:51 PM

34-16

sterlingice · 03-20-2004, 02:56 PM

Man, the refs are doing a good job of hosing a #2 seed. Needless to say, this wasn't happening in the first game today.

SI

kingfc22 · 03-20-2004, 02:56 PM

I hate watching basketball when the refs control the game, especially this time of year.

sterlingice · 03-20-2004, 03:00 PM

This game just has this feel about it. It's going to be a 3 point game either way with 1 minute to go. This is the first game I've really been excited about this year.

SI

JeeberD · 03-20-2004, 03:07 PM

Nevada up 15 at the half. Very nice...

Ragone · 03-20-2004, 03:17 PM

Wonder how gonzaga likes it now the shoes on the other foot

sterlingice · 03-20-2004, 03:40 PM

WHAT?!?! What an awful call!

SI

JeeberD · 03-20-2004, 03:48 PM

I was in the shower. What happened?

JeeberD · 03-20-2004, 03:58 PM

Holy shit what a dunk!!!

k0ruptr · 03-20-2004, 04:14 PM

wow. a 2 seed is goin down. was rootin for ya gonzaga, have fun watching the tourney from home.

k0ruptr · 03-20-2004, 04:15 PM

at least the it makes the wac look good

JeeberD · 03-20-2004, 04:15 PM

What? You were rooting for Gonzaga?!?!?!

Dude, you have to root for teams from your own conference...

Edit: Glad to see that Dola from you...

k0ruptr · 03-20-2004, 04:18 PM

Clearly 100% wrong! Oops. The Zags were the only top seed I really didn't want to lose. I mean, to me they're still the little team that could, even with the #2 seed.

SI

k0ruptr · 03-20-2004, 04:48 PM

WOW delonte west of st. joes just went off early

sterlingice · 03-20-2004, 07:01 PM

Man! Why couldn't one of these two games they had to keep flipping between be the early game today instead of that wretched Duke game. I badly wanted the shot to fall in the Stanford game since that would have finally been one of those marquee shots I'd been waiting for all tournament.

P.S. Goodbye bracket with the Stanford loss

SI

NAIWF · 03-20-2004, 07:03 PM

I just hope Billy Packer admits that Stanford was the #1 seed that really didn't deserve that status now. There is no East coast bias, it's not our fault that the West coast just doesn't put out any good teams.

Radii · 03-20-2004, 07:08 PM

night stanford! Terrible terrible last play by maryland. Why is darryl, Jr taking that shot instead of gilchrist?

NAIWF · 03-20-2004, 07:10 PM

If I'm not mistaken, the whole Pac-10 is out already. Has any major conference ever been completely wiped out within the first 29 games before, or was this a historic effort we just witnessed?

GoldenEagle · 03-20-2004, 07:12 PM

Where is all the West Coasters now?

Stanford? Done
Gonzaga? Done

Who else is left?

Ragone · 03-20-2004, 07:17 PM

Think Nevada is the furthest west team left.. and i thought all along that stanford would be the first #1 out

sterlingice · 03-20-2004, 07:17 PM

Nevada and Pacific are still around. Tho, I suppose Nevada's not really coast. Then again, are you counting the Carolina schools as East Coast despite being over 100 miles from any sort of water?

ice4277 · 03-21-2004, 06:05 PM

Wow, some great games in the final Sunday session, especially this Kentucky/UAB game. UAB up one with about 12 seconds left! Although, I have a sinking feeling Kentucky will pull it off in the end.

ice4277 · 03-21-2004, 06:07 PM

WOW. Congrats UAB!

JonInMiddleGA · 03-21-2004, 06:07 PM

UAB !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

{I don't think I've ever been as pleased to have my bracket completely destroyed}

k0ruptr · 03-21-2004, 06:08 PM

YEA BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO FUCKING AWESOME

Rizon · 03-21-2004, 06:09 PM

Wow thanks KFC and Sanford for ruining my brackets.
