NCAA NON- KU GAMES

@Bosthawk said in NCAA NON- KU GAMES:
First time in NCAA history that not a single 1 seed in elite 8 or final four.
Whomever ends up in the championship game next week, I’d Love to see if anyone anywhere picked the two teams…
March Crap shoot madness
I doubt there’s many accurate title game picks from the left side (South and East) of the bracket. There’s probably a lot of brackets that have some combination of Texas, Gonzaga, and UConn from the right side (Midwest and West) of the bracket.
-
UT would absolutely be crazy to not hire Terry as their permanent coach at this point.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 True to form for Xavier.
-
My Texas FF pick is looking brilliant!
-
“In the final analysis, Alabama sacrificed every shred of its institutional integrity for a meager Sweet 16 run.”
-
I’ll beat you to the punch: yes, it’s Pat Forde. Yes, he’s a jerk. But a broken clock is right twice a day. And he’s right on this. The embarrassment of Alabama bb is now out of the tournament, thank God. If they had won the tournament, it would’ve left an indelible stain on the sport, imo.
-
@Jethro It’s not like they had fake classes or paid players. Sheesh
College basketball is corrupt af. and only gonna get worse with the NIL business aspect.

@Texas-Hawk-10 FAU is 52 miles from Miami. Not quite the same as UNC-Duke in the same FF last year, but in a non-basketball crazy state like Florida it’s really remarkable.
-
Texas makes their coaching decisions with input from outside of the athletic department. Never quite sure of the results. Sometimes it seems they reach for a reason to hire or fire.
-
@Jethro @BShark there have been documented shady dealings in college basketball since the 1951 CCNY team. The difference is players getting paid, shaving points and academic corruption. I’m glad Bama is out but comparing such to someone being murdered is apples to oranges to the aforementioned stuff.
-
@kjayhawks I think it goes back to before 1951. I have it on good authority that James Naismith changed an F to a D so one of his players could be eligible on his first KU team.
-
@wissox They even used to bring the bling to the court in peach baskets!
-
Trap game: Vegas would make so much money if Silo Tech loses. The line is K-State -1.5 up to -2. 90% of the money is on K-State. I think Fau wins, and Vegas makes a fortune.
-
@Jethro I let my previous winnings ride on KSU again tonight…
-
FAU runs some fun sets
-
-
FAU has very balanced offense. Very effective big. Can shoot 3s. And, can penetrate off the dribble…
-
KSU deciding to just wrap up and throw the fau big an to the floor every time down the floor now that the foul’s differential is so big. Refs letting it all go.
-
But hey the score is close so mission accomplished, right?
-
Hard to say which is worse, bigs getting absolutely manhandled trying to post up or just camping out in the lane for like 8 seconds. Not sure if it’s a chicken or the egg situation but they seem connected.
-
About ready to throw a flag for holding

KSU just mauls them inside every time lol

Not on the other side. What is a guy supposed to do if they are going to let a 7 footer just plant two feet in the paint for an entire possession without moving at all?

TOs keeping KSU close. FAU completely dominating the glass - +14. And, they haven’t missed a FT…
-
@BShark really think the strategy was to work the foul count on that one. When FAU got into the double bonus with having only 3 or four fouls the other way, KSU turned up the physicality daring the refs to make FAU shoot free throws every possession for 10 minutes in a half.

Yep. Both teams weaknesses are showing. Interesting game.
-
That FAU big is so good at keeping the ball high. Not sure I’ve seen a big that good at it in a while.

Unless Johnson goes off in the 2nd half, this looks like FAU’s game…

They need to get Key going for sure.
-
K state has been really good on set plays this whole tournament. Seems they always get that bucket when they need it and have an opportunity to run something.
-
Entertaining game. Sorry guys and gals, kick me out of the club, I’m pulling for, cough, cough, silo tech. Coach Tang has got me, and goodness, Nowell became a star overnight and he’s really dynamic.
The 3 pointer he got fouled on was so savvy. FAU guy reaching in so Nowell decides to go up and shoot knowing his arm is going to get hit.
But Nowell needs to pass more sometimes too. Last drive before the half here evidence. 5’8" guy against a footer rarely goes in the favor of the 5’8" guy.
-
My twitter account will resume normal activities once this game is over. For now, please do not pay attention to it.
-
Nowell having another good night. He’s a senior. Will he drafted? Can he come back next year?

He has played 5 years THANK GOD.
-
@BShark - that’s good! Johnson gone too?
-

Probably assuming he will be drafted.
-
I don’t want KSU in the Elite 8 to become a regular thing either.

I’d be fine with them reaching the E8 every 5 years only to lose to the flavor of the month 8-9 seed mid major like they did 5 years ago to the Fighting Sister Jean’s.
-
Make sure K State fans know youre rooting for their team, and they can feel free to return the favor when their guys have a down year?
-
KSU has missed 3-4 bunnies…
-
@approxinfinity lol! That’s not gonna happen!
-
This is the kind of game the NCAA needs when all of the major players have been eliminated.
-
I’d take Goldin
-
Nowell is on an all time heater. Just doing all the dumb things and it’s working
-
First game of the year between them and us the little guy had 4 points and 7 assts. 2nd game 23 points, not many dimes. He wouldn’t have been a household name just playing us.
-
No more flops?

Self would never survive him. Triple bypass.
-
If KSU loses this game, Johnson’s 0-3 from FT line (one front end) and Sills missed layup are going to haunt…
