Day 2 Tournament Thread
-
Is Phil Forte finally done now…or will the NCAA grant him a 14th year of eligibility?
-
Oregon very shaky warrior right now.
-
@Blown Its ok though. Baylor is kicking the crap out of New Mexico St. And, I didnt have either Okie State or Michigan getting past Louisville
-
What a strange game. OK State +19 on the glass. Shot 54% from the field, shot 43% from 3, shot 88% from the line, and only turned the ball over 10 times. And still lose by a point.
-
@Lulufulu I know I’m desperate for a good big 12 showing
-
@Blown Ditto, totaly ditto. After last years bed crapping
-
@Blown Ive got Kstate beating Cincinatti today
-
Brooks back in and Oregon goes on a run.
-
Keiton Page’s little brother is finally out of eligibility
-
Marcus Marshall, Juwan Evans, Donovan Mitchell, Quentin Snyder, Derrick Walton, Dillon Brooks, Monte Morris, Devonte Graham, Frank Mason.
Midwest is the point guard region.
-
Louisville will wake up eventually I’m sure, but right now yikes.

Nothing but respect for teachers that work under those conditions; not many willing to do it. My daughter teaches special needs kids in an inner city school in Kansas City, Mo, and I know how stressful it can be.
-
@JayHawkFanToo Thanks. No stress this afternoon though!
-
Wow, a flagrant 1 at the end of a game? Way to screw up my bracket even more refs.
-
Refs just handed Arkansas the game.
-
How do you call a flagrant there? Way to ruin the game.
-
Well said and that’s awesome of your daughter to do that job.
-
Louisville starting to gain control now.
-
Disagreeing that it’s a call that will be discussed forever because these two teams stink and Arkansas will be bounced by 25 points Sunday.
-
WHAT A TERRIBLE FLAGRANT CALL.
-
@wissox A girl fight is the one thing I refuse to break up at my school. I’ve dealt with two of them in the hallways this year and my focus was protecting the other students and let the police and administration deal with breaking up the fight. I’m 6-5 about 270 lbs. and I refuse to get in the middle of girl fights because there is no stopping them. When guys fight, there’s at least some semblance of strategy, but a girl fight is just grabbing, punching, pulling, or kicking anything within reach. There is no logic involved in a girl fight.
-
Yeah ultimately it doesn’t matter.
-
Man sittin there and watching that dam Oklahoma St & Michigan game I was having a flashback - -Michigan hittin every cottin pickin 3 they threw up in the 2nd half - -I thought dam, Iowa State at Allen all over again. - -I thought Oklahoma St actually played pretty well for the most part, if Evans would of hit a few more of his lay ups mercy. - -WELP 1 down. - -Baylor turns it on in the 2nd half, thought they were going to pull thewir annual early exit, but props they came alive. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Any chance KState beats Cincy tonight?
-
I predict many exbruces for the loss, players to be thrown under the bus. That said, Cincy isn’t good on offense, so there is a chance.
-
Some of the post game analyst, including a NCAA official, are saying that he pushed him hard and the call was warranted. I disagree. If he pushed hard he would had fallen towards the sideline but the replay clearly shows he tried to hold him and he tripped and fell towards the basket. Sure it was a foul but no way it was flagrant as the game announcers pretty much said at the time.
-
@JayHawkFanToo It was a flagrant because there was no play on the ball which is a black and white rule.
-
@JayHawkFanToo I agree-- and I also think by the letter of the law that he didn’t make “a basketball play on the ball” they were probably right within the rules.
But it was still a terrible call. Players put two hands on each other all of the time and it’s not called flagrant. They should have let him shoot the free throws and moved on.
Terrible way to be eliminated from the tournament.
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich Yes. Kansas State WildEmaws will win.
-
Player commit touch fouls without making a play for the ball all the time at the end of games and it is rarely called a flagrant. No doubt it was a foul but I don’t believe it should have been called a flagrant, at least not at that point in the game.
-
Come on SMU, close this.
-
Holy shit. Speaking of Brannen Greene references, SMU player with his foot on the oob line after catching the ball…
-
Shaky ft shooter on the line down 1…
-
Wow this game…
-
Rhody looks pretty good. I believe I have them winning a couple (but we see how that went for me with SMU).
-
I liked the 11 seeds, but not Rhode Island wth creighton?
-
Yep I have URI beating Oregon, which is probably a little crazy.
-
@BShark Ya slightly crazy. I have URI winning today but losing to Oregon. Have Oregon in the elite 8 actually.
-
Didn’t watch anything but the last minute of SMU/SC, but why did SMU lose with 3 TO’s in their pocket? Coach figured he didn’t have anything good to say?
-
Probably been watching tape of Roy.
-
Speaking of Roy, UNC looks reaaaaaaal good.
-
@BShark they do but they are also playing Texas southern
-
Don’t see them having a close game until the EE.
-
@wissox jankovich mismanaged the last 30 seconds badly. Looks like nothing designed to get a look. Just hero ball
-
It’s probably no big deal that he didn’t call a TO. Here’s what they say at TO’s anyways:
Make sure you box out.
Make sure you switch on their screens.
Watch out for the back door cuts.
You’ve got to keep the ball moving.
Check out that dancer out there.
Where you want to eat after the game? Buffalo Wild Wings? They show lots of games and we can check our brackets there.
You guys on the bench, be ready, I may need you.
-
Half an hour until the Hoi Hawks tip off.
-
Not sure if anyone’s still paying attention, but how the heck does a 7 seed like South Carolina get to play a game in their own state? Pretty good treatment for an average team.
-
Because they let the boys use the girls bathroom.
-
@Hawk69 True
