Day 10 Tournament Game Thread
-
@KUSTEVE @Crimsonorblue22 is right, am jealous I didnât come up wit dat Thatâs a goodâ n Jethro.
-
Sc held Baylor scoreless for 7.5 minutes in the First half. And another run 2 points in 5 minutes in the second half. Un. real.
-
Scott drew deer in headlights look. He had it tonight and his dad in the stands had the same look.
-
@wissox kept looking at his damn notecards. Had a week to prepare and barely broke 50.
-
I just posted on another thread. I donât understand Faylor at all.
-
@wissox Itâs his Xâs and Oâs. He just canât perform at this level. Martin flat out coached him. PERIOD.
-
Drew should not be coaching. He needs to be a recruiter for a real coach.
-
@DanR Iâve always said it over the years that Drew is Barnes 2.0 Those two coaches have had some of the best talent in D1 over the years and they always seem to miss when it counts.
-
BK!
-
Good start for Bucky!

@Hawk8086 well, the big 12 did have 3 teams in the sweet sixteen. ACC only had one.
Not sure that is much to crow about. 3 other conferences also had 3 teams in the Sweet Sixteen. The SEC could have 3 in the Elite 8. The P12 or SEC will have at least 2. If FL beats Wisconsin, the SEC will be guaranteed at least 1 FF team. The B12 has played exactly to seed thus far - and for that to continue, KU has to beat Oregon. This is the 3rd or 4th year in a row that Baylor has lost to a lower seeded team - at least it wasnât a double digit seed. When was the last time a B12 team beat a higher seed? I donât know which is why Iâm asking, but I donât recall one in the recent future - although I know that B12 teams have had numerous losses to lower seeded teams.

I assume weâre rooting for Kentucky?

Speaking of coaches. OSU picked their next coach. Pants just canât seem to get a break at his alma mater. The Animal Sports Radio of OKC talked all day long. Many OSU fans thought Pants shouldâve gotten the job. They think the interview with Pants was an appeasement for some. Many alumni DO NOT want Pants to be the head coach of OSU.
Jim Traber (Former OSU baseball alum and local sports analyst) believes because Pants coached in AAU, he knows how to coach at this level. Poor Pants, always a bridesmaid and never a bride. Maybe when he gets his pants on right, he can coach some day. They basically allowed Pants to show at an interview and simply told him that he would not be the next head coach.
(
)This is pretty much how the interview went between Doug Pants on Backwards Gotlieb and Mike Holder. There is a striking resemblance between Pants and Commodus.

Remember Scooter Barry? HIs brother, yes, his brother plays for Florida, Canyon. Different mother, same famous Dad.
-
Only watched about first 5 - 10 minutes of Butler/UNC and by then it didnât look good for Butler. From the final score it looks like they tried a comeback and UNC probably padded the difference from the charity stripe. Am I right or wrong?
-
I was stoked today. I went to a leadership conference here in OKC. One of the guest speakers was Joe Washington. He told the story of how KU beat OU. I was Rock Chalkinâ all day long to hear Joe Washington tell the story of how KU beat OU in football during his time at OU. However, they also won 2 Natlâ Championships too. So I didnât press it much. I did speak to him during his book signing and all I said to him was Rock Chalk, and he laughed. He said, âGood luck in the NCAA tourney, I think you all can win it.â It was fun.
Another funny story was a win against Misery. OU was down in Columbia and the play went to Joe Washington who ran in and scored the winning TD against Misery. Joe Washington used a term Iâve never heard before in my life. He said after that stunning loss, the stadium went quiet, and you coud, âhear a rat pissing on cotton.â I died laughing.

@brooksmd OUt enjoying some seafood before the big game tonight, so I donât know. The lame restauarant we were in was showing womens basketball!
-
I think I had Steve Alfordâs haircut in middle School
-
So far the pace certainly favors UK. Canât say Iâd ever root for either team under any circumstances. Will say Iâm ready to be done hearing about âballâ
-
Honestly, I just dont understand this âroot for the Big12â nonsense, when done blanket-fashion& with no thinking or analysis, whatsoever.
Sorry, my respect for Big12 coaches and teams is EARNED. Thus, I rooted for wvu/Huggins, HOF-level coach, as they just about kicked our butt twice. Sad to see wvu lose. I have NO such respect for Scot Drew. When the hell did he do anything to earn respectâhe holds the ignominous distinction of being disdained by his fellow coaches. Wont root for IowaSt as a matter of principle, against their fanbase.
GET THIS: The work a team needs to do to get ârespectâ happens BEFORE the Madness, as they try to MAKE the Tourney. Once you make the Dance, its every team for itself!
Iâll root for fellow bluebloods KY, UNC, UCLA, and even possibly Duke, if you make me choose between them and Faylor/Drew, or IowaSt, or KSU. I would root for OU, TCU, TxTech, as I hold Kruger, Dixon, and Beard in high regard. Lots of respect for Underwood as well, sad he left.
Respect is earned. Dont cheapen it by giving it freely. Youâre nothing but a blind sheep if you do. I thought KU fans were knowledgeable, & students of the game, not blindly-following other B12 teams you ought to know so well. Unbelievable.
-
Cliff Notes version: Baylor is a joke.
-
@ralster Revenue sharing would be the only reason to want other conference teams to win. Is there sharing at all in this day & age?
-
Badgers went brain dead last five minutes of the half, silly fouls, turnovers
-
@truehawk93 Another PHOF !
-
@chriz need pics!
-
@globaljaybird I knew you would love that, put that in your book of famous sayings!

@chriz I am. UCLA has an extremely powerful offense Iâd rather take on The streaky kids from U.K. I just think HCBS has Calâs # ⌠Ballsâ old man has had enough press-Send em home,
-
@mayjay Is brightd in da funk & wagnalls?
-
@globaljaybird Ha! No, it is on my phone keyboard when failing to hold the âdâ down long enough to get an exclamation mark.
So, should have been âbright!â
Ironic, perhaps, as I was not too�
-
@mayjay Is that bright as in his pile is âglowing?â
-
Old man Ball, if things stay as they are, will probably pipe up and say he couldâve coached UCLA to an easy 20+ win over Kensucky.
-
Frank is 5:42 away from being POY.
-
YES!
-
Come onnnnnnn⌠Badgers!
-
@drgnslayr WEâve got some referee problems right now
-
@ralster a blind sheep because my loyalty lies with 1. Kansas 2. Big 12vs anyone else in the NCAA tournament ? It needs no reflection, nor âanalysisâ itâs a pretty simple concept to understand and not need explained. My loyalty to the big 12 performance in the dance goes beyond any petty disdain I might have for a coach or a fan base. As the coaches change out Iâll still support the teams. I also donât like Marshall much at all but after the big 12 I cheer for wsu because of their being from Kansas. Calling people sheep because they have a different opinion than you might have is an insult to which you are above.

Any day now, we will find out that God took a couple days longer in Genesis than Daddy Ball would have needed.
-
If the ball kid wins POY, Iâll be pissed. He had 7 points in the pac12 tournament and has 8 currently with 3 minutes to play. The best players step up when itâs time, not down. He shouldnât be on the ballot.
-
I donât really want to see 3 freaking SEC teams make the elite 8 likeâs about to happen if the Badgers donât do their thing.
-
Nigel taking over
-
But their come back is happening N O W !
-
@kjayhawks He just got a dunk! That is worth tons of press & photos, and easily outweighs any NCAA tourney stats by lesser beings!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 cameras werenât invented yet lol
-
When Fox plays this way UK is tough. If we can get past Oregon, it wonât be easy. I think the NC comes from this side of the bracket. Ether us, UNC, UK or Oregon. Hopefully us lol.
-
Buzzer, End Scene. Peace out Ball.

Rooting for them against UNC for the same reason!
-
So if they look at tournament performance, I guess there is only one choice for the award.
