Nice!

wade moore · 03-16-2006, 01:43 PM

BC should be grateful for this free throw shooting.

WHOLY SHIT. that was one HELL of a 3.

JeeberD · 03-16-2006, 01:43 PM

HUGE THREE BY PACIFIC!

st.cronin · 03-16-2006, 01:43 PM

WIDE OPEN

wade moore · 03-16-2006, 01:43 PM

and NICE job keeping the play alive by the guard when he slipped.

miami_fan · 03-16-2006, 01:44 PM

FROM DOWNTOWN......BANG

TIE SCORE

st.cronin · 03-16-2006, 01:44 PM

How in the world does ANYBODY get that wide open behind the arc, in that situation??? Horrible defense.

Passacaglia · 03-16-2006, 01:44 PM

Nice 3 by Pacific.

This comment from Neuqua is a previous thread regarding at-large tourney selections describes my feelings very well;

They have it their way in football and now they want it their way in basketball too.

Sak, it's not an even playing field though. Cincy and Wake have much higher athletic budgets because of the BCS money pouring in. Their facilities are better, they can pay more for coaches, etc. It's not an even playground. Even with that, I do think the top teams in the MVC can compete (read: not win) some of the so called BCS conferences. And I consider that a remarkable feat in its own right."

I was thinking this, too.

I want BC to win because I picked them in my bracket, but...it'd be really cool to see Pacific win the thing.

timmynausea · 03-16-2006, 01:46 PM

That was awesome.

JeeberD · 03-16-2006, 01:46 PM

TRAVELING!

JeeberD · 03-16-2006, 01:47 PM

3.9 second left for Pacific

MylesKnight · 03-16-2006, 01:47 PM

Final - Wisconsin-Milwaukee 82, Oklahoma 74

MylesKnight · 03-16-2006, 01:47 PM

Pacific with a chance to win!!!!

JeeberD · 03-16-2006, 01:47 PM

Bah...

Overtime.

st.cronin · 03-16-2006, 01:47 PM

travel

lol @ BC

Young Drachma · 03-16-2006, 01:48 PM

Yeah, seriously. I was wonder what that kid was thinking dribbling into a crowd of 3 players.

Nevermind, what was that? You aren't awarded points for dribbling into crowds.

Somewhere around here I posted my general thoughts which is something I heard from some commentator this week.

You have two ways to select the 34 at-large teams.

A) The 34 teams with the best chance to win the tournament.
B) The 34 teams with the best seasons.

I think it should be B, simple as that.

MylesKnight · 03-16-2006, 01:50 PM

Hypothetical here: What if the BC inbounder just threw the pass in the basket here..

DaddyTorgo · 03-16-2006, 01:50 PM

blargh. al skinner's continued insistence on giving the ball to craig smith so he can heave up desperation shots in the final 10 seconds of big games makes me throw up

MylesKnight · 03-16-2006, 01:50 PM

OVERTIME for the ACC's #2.

wade moore · 03-16-2006, 01:50 PM

Oh and, I went to W&M (A bottom feeder in the CAA) and am a HUGE follower of the CAA, so that's where I'm coming from.

Edit: Bottom feeder for Basketball, top feeder for football but they're I-AA for football.

JeeberD · 03-16-2006, 01:50 PM

I was thinking that it woudl have made more sense to put everyone right around the basket and then throw the ball towards the hoop and try to get someone to tip it in...

I'm pretty sure there's a rule against that.

MylesKnight · 03-16-2006, 01:54 PM

The rule states that if the clock is under three-tenths of a second, the only way to score is by a tip.. Not enough time to catch and shoot.

By the way, the CAA should have had three. Remember GMU beat Wichita a few weeks back at their place in the BracketBuster. Hofstra knocked out GMU in the CAA Tourney and deserved a bid. If the Valley got four, the CAA should have gotten all three of there's.

agreed 100%, in the meantime the CAA #4 CRUSHED the Big-12 #5 in the NIT last night. I'm hoping the CAA can win a game or two in the NCAA's and have at least one team go deep in the NIT and that should shut some people up.

MylesKnight · 03-16-2006, 01:55 PM

Give him three. Too close to call replay goes to the officials initial ruling.

Swaggs · 03-16-2006, 01:56 PM

Oh wow!

Young Drachma · 03-16-2006, 01:57 PM

Looks like Pacific has a home game

At least we got to see Seton Hall's awesome effort though.

JeeberD · 03-16-2006, 01:58 PM

I love it!

I picked BC to win this one, but I don't mind a little red on my bracket if it's one of the "elite" conferences losing a team...

MylesKnight · 03-16-2006, 02:00 PM

Pacific!!! This is not a BCS Bubble Team they are leading by six right now. BC almost beat both of Billy Packer's Wet Dream Orgy Duo (UNC & Duke) in a 24 Hour span this past weekend.

If they allow you to order cable, they cannot prevent you from putting up a dish - in your own area (balcony).

And the package is for the first three rounds.

wade moore · 03-16-2006, 02:00 PM

STUPID shot by Gray, he's lucky that BC knocked it out.

Hey Jeebs, congrats to the Miners on the opening NIT Win. Hope to see you guys get to the Garden (along with Houston).

Also hoping for good results for Memphis and UAB.

JeeberD · 03-16-2006, 02:01 PM

Doh!

Come on, Tigers!

wade moore · 03-16-2006, 02:01 PM

Gracias! I loved seeing UH beat up on BYWho? and I really think that UAB can beat Kentucky.

We've got a big game against Michigan tonight. If we win that then we go to Notre Dame. Talk about playing against some name schools...

Lathum · 03-16-2006, 02:03 PM

shaping up for quiet a finish

JeeberD · 03-16-2006, 02:03 PM

Oh crap.

DEFENSE!!!

MylesKnight · 03-16-2006, 02:04 PM

Well I would say that I have UTEP favored in Ann Arbor tonight, but I have to remember that you guys somehow lost to UCF in Orlando in the last game of the regular season..

BEAT MICHIGAN!

Celeval · 03-16-2006, 02:04 PM

THe "Boss Button" on the CBS video player is awesome.

Lathum · 03-16-2006, 02:04 PM
