Clemson upset Arizona and UConn blew out San Diego St. by 30 in the first two Sweet 16 games tonight.
-
@RockkChalkk I kind of liked your first part but the court storming flop comment just gauls me. I think your feelings about her are clouding your judgment about that moment. Fans doing something technically illegal run into her and you really think she had time to process that situation like ok I’m gonna flop? I’m no fan of her or Filipkowski at Duke but I’m appalled people will criticize them because of out of control fans running into them.
-
@wissox I seriously thought they both flopped.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Fans don’t run on the court there’s no controversy. Why would they flop?
-
Terrance Shannon Jr. has a weirdly effective 3 point shot. Looks kind of odd but he makes them at a decent rate.
-
The question is almost the same as last year at this time, can anyone play with UConn? Is Brad Underwood finally doing something in March
-
These are some great games tonight.
-
Grant Nelson vs Brandon Ingram…
-
@approxinfinity Both interested here but we’d already promised 4 spot minutes to a 6-5 center
Just like many ball dominated guards but we end up with Timby, Marcus Adam’s and then furphy with no stud 2 coming except the guy only DePaul wanted which says plenty
Bill’s pets is killing bill’s recruiting. Any wright can claim he has a fire lit after this year bs I’ll believe it when I see it. This year we were supposed to level up…dude road his pets to a 6th place big 12 finish and another round of 32…20 point blowout
-
@FarmerJayhawk Bummer. I was pulling for you guys.
-
@wissox attention
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich sigh. On we go.
-
Hilarious on Twitter seeing KState fans take shots at ISU for losing last night. Hilarious seeing ISU fans on twitter (X) saying the loss isn’t surprising since they’re now every teams super bowl. Yes, we now call ISU our Super Bowl!
-
Not watching but Duke Houston combine for 45 first half points. When MSU-UW did a little worse in 2000 Roy Williams famously said they were pushing the game back a half century. I wonder if he’s dusting up that line again?
-
Filipowski constantly lowering his shoulder and driving to get the foul. Lord, I dislike Duke.
-
@wissox Just read Shead got hurt. Too bad especially as it benefits Duke.

Likely cost UH the game.

@Texas-Hawk-10 Sad ending to a great collegiate player and career.
-
Hard to believe this is only Tennessee’s second ever Elite 8 appear with as much success as that program has had in its history.

Equally hard to believe that the B12 will be missing in action when the Elite 8 games tip off. Stunning result for the top-rated conference (issue with the ratings?). Solid 5-3 in first round games, but only 2 made it to the Sweet 16 and none past that. Every other major conference has performed better (yes, the SEC was bad in the first round, but has 2 in the E8).
-
@DCHawker If KU is having an off year, the Big12 won’t do squat in the tournament. Next year might be different with Arizona in conference (they’ve already flamed out too though) as I’m not sure Houston or Baylor will push KU long term.

UH is absolutely sustainable as a B12 power once Sampson retires. They have a benefactor who is pretty much single handedly responsible for elevating UH both academically and athletically into a B12 level school and will do whatever it takes to keep UH relevant.
I do agree that I don’t see Baylor sustaining their level of success post Scott Drew. It took him a decade to get Baylor to a consistent contender and is essentially all of Baylor’s basketball history.
-
@dylans Zona has been a top 2 seed in the west at least three times playing in the relatively cozy confines of LA and lost 3 times in the regional out there. I looked at Zona’s history page and they’re 4-8 all time against us, but have winning records against Duke and Kentucky and Mich State. We’re the only blue blood they can’t handle but that will be put to the test as they join our league.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 Baylor always has key injuries. I can’t believe we beat them w/out Kevin. I don’t think they are as strong as they were 2 yrs ago. Tang leaving?
-
Remarkable IL-UConn game…Huskies 3 guards are 2-17 and team is 1-13 from 3, but they are up 16. They just have so many different weapons and ways to beat you…

25-0 in the second half with 13 minutes to go…

A 33-2 run by UConn. Just stunning against a quality opponent…
-
This UConn team is amazing
One has to tip off their hats on this extraordinary performance since last year
-
@DCHawker and to think we beat them!
-
@AsadZ Nah afh is the greatest home court advantage on earth
It masks a lot of deficiencies
-
What UConn has been doing in NCAA tournaments since last year is absolutely amazing. Thye are destroying their opponents.
They have very good players but we must give credit to their coaching staff.
KUBallin, I will not trade Self tho, I am 100% confident he will be back with vengeance.
-
Hurley is a good coach, but his face is very punchable - it’s the arrogant, smug way he carries himself I suppose.

Duke Coach is right thee with him for me.
-
Hurley reminds me of Boeheim in terms of a balance of smug sarcasm and competence. Scheyer is the lead if Tommy Boy was directed by the director of Twilight.
-
@AsadZ Hurley as a person is a jerk but gotta respect his maturity to review his philosophy and adjust it to have better success in this form of college bball
I don’t think so on the vengeance I think if we get bounced early again next year he will look to retire faulting the portal and how it all works as a reason he couldn’t be consistent (ignoring how other programs leverage it and are being successful)
-
Edey with 40-16 to lead Purdue to their first Final Four since 1980.
-
So this is definitely a meteor game but it’s going to really suck when the dook whistle takes over
-
And there’s a Duke whistle leading to a technical against NC State’s coach.
-
DJ Burns is in beast mode right now!
-
Jeremy Roach is a brave man trying to take a charge from Burns.
-
Filipowski just fouled out with 5 minutes left.
-
I don’t even care if he plays for state I love Burns
-
Watching Duke lose in the tournament every year is the consolation prize for when we get eliminated early.
-
I think NC State is getting ready to be having a very good day in basketball with both teams making the Final Four today.
-
Shoutout Diarra who has to be like really, really thirsty but it still out there making FTs
-
Dook’s last 5 years involve a 13-11 season, losing to UNC in K’s last game, getting bounced in the second round, and losing to NC State. BRUTAL.
-
We love DJ Burns
-
-
Woof woof NC state
-
Is Flippy done now, Mr leet me just bulldoze my way through , Couldn’t of happened to a better team.
