@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…

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.
-
@FarmerJayhawk I don’t think Jesus would have been a good basketball player. Being perfect he could never foul meaning his defense would be poor. He’d have to pass up many open shots because he couldn’t miss a shot and still be perfect. Being humble he might let the other team score and win because He was a champion for the leper, the demon possessed, the blind, the mute, the poor, they’re the ones He wanted to get better. If he played our team he’d rebound another missed three and throw it back and say try again. A ball goes off His fingertips and instead of going to the monitor He’d just tell the referee that he touched it.
-
@wissox very fair points. He also was an extremely fluid athlete that could walk on water and had an unlimited vertical!
-
@wissox But he would have no hesitation using all his powers to beat the Blue Devils, and that is all that matters in heaven and earth.
-
Man, after watching Purdue today, I am shocked at the lack whistles on those defending Edey. Constant aggressive arm bars in his back. Thought that was a point of emphasis?
-
@rockchalkjayhawk He’s the most controversially officiated player I can ever remember.
As an opposing fan I see him get away with more contact than I can ever remember. If you care to watch this from the BIG championship game two weeks ago. https://x.com/BadSportsRefs/status/1769083732101611564?s=20. We’ve seen a lot of this, trust me.
On the other hand, teams with lots of bodies to throw at Zach would rather foul him, and so Purdue fans make this the focus of their rants against the refs. He’s not a perfect FT shooter, so it’s a decent strategy, but then the FT count piles up and fans point out the discrepancy.
Also, I didn’t watch the game yesterday so not sure how it was officiated.
-
I constantly harped on David McCormick’s lack of footwork.
Watch a much bigger guy with great footwork to know what I was talking about… NC State’s DJ Burns.
It’s like he’s dancing on tiptoes out there!
GO Wolfpack!
-
@drgnslayr I’m looking forward to the Zach/DJ matchup. Boiler Up!
-
Should be epic!
-
@drgnslayr I wouldn’t mind seeing NCState win TBH, my cousin went there and they’re on the likable side of the ACC. No Bama, no UCONN in my view.
-
I’m 100% Wolfpack! Love how they handed it to Puke! Love being an 11th seed!
They can win it all. Teams get hot… They are hot!
-
@drgnslayr It’d be interesting to be a fan of them and analyze if they’re surprised (probably) or if they knew they had that potential and were frustrated at the way the regular season went?
-
I have a close friend who is a big fan and grad. Surprise isn’t the right word. She thought they should have played better earlier on in the season. Talk about a rivalry… wow. Pack fans don’t like being called “underdogs.” It’s what they always heard even after Jimmie V’s nattie. Of course… the fan base is going absolutely nuts! Beating Puke to get into the FF… couldn’t have been drawn up any better!

IMO, Burns is an excellent passer also. I haven’t see him dunk, though.

I’m so jacked for the women’s games tonight
-
@FarmerJayhawk Not sure if I ever purposely turned on a Womans game, but tonight I did, on purpose! Mulkey wore green making it easier to watch her on court antics.

That outfit is pretty tame from what she normally wears on the tournament.
-
@wissox and it’s a great double header! UConn USC isn’t getting near the buzz but also has two of the best players in America
-
@wissox did ISU change sports?
-
@FarmerJayhawk I love that they score more points in one quarter than we do in a half.
-
@nuleafjhawk honestly the whole men’s game has an offensive execution problem. There have been mostly stinkers in the tournament
-
@nuleafjhawk Not sure I catch your drift on ISU
-
Maybe I misunderstood. Were we talking football or basketball? I was thinking basketball so “Super Bowl” didn’t click with me.
-
@FarmerJayhawk I have a theory that nobody wants to hear or would agree with.
