One of the Wildest Turnarounds, Saint Peter's
-
@kjayhawks After seeing the reference to Kentucky earlier in the thread, the Robert Morris connex to ousting St. Peter’s, is interesting. They took out UK in the 2013 NIT in the first round.
Looking it up, I was surprised to see the game was in the little town, Moon Township, PA, where Cal grew up and was named prom king. “You can’t go home again.”
-
Ha… they are following the coaching strategy I use for my 6 yr old’s team! Everyone plays…
-
@mayjay my dad was stationed in Moon Township during Korea. He met my mom at a church in Pittsburgh. She was from a town near there called Mars. So my dad from moon married my mom from mars.

@wissox They must have really thought this book was petty silly!
-
Did I ever mention I’m an ET? Helped me get a sweet scholarship at KU.
-
@wissox always knew there was something strange about you!!! Haha
-
@wissox “I’ll be, right, here…”
-
Took a couple years, but this is a great result. They have some real dudes.
-
Hello… St. Peter’s just beat the “superior athletes “ of Kensookee!!

St Peters has some strong athletes tbh
-
I will enjoy this more than the KU game tonight and I’m okay with that
-
What’s the math on all-time wins now?
-
Yes… clearly.
The tourney is just nuts. Always has been. Somewhere on a Kentucky site right now a poster is calling for Calamari’s head… he can’t recruit the right players, he doesn’t know how to coach tight games, etc etc. etc.
The tourney is downright scary. This is absolutely no guarantee that better teams will advance. It is very hard to judge a program on ncaa results alone
-
UK fans have to be calling for Cals head. Missed tourney followed by a 2-15 loss
-
The crazy thing is St Peters was not very well coached. Their “offense” frequently gave me palpitations. Talent carried.

Mustached savior coming off of set play screens won that game. But Cal is also an awful in-game coach so a loss like this was long overdue
-
I think we are one game behind UK now in total wins.
-
I almost blew a very important professional dinner to track this game. GO COCKS
-
@Kcmatt7 I think this has been answered, but KU is one win away from tying Kentucky in all time wins. KU is now +3 wins over Kentucky after beating Tx S and started the season with 2,323 wins vs. Kentucky’s 2327 wins. RC
-
Sweet 16!!!
-
Best tournament Cinderella in a long long time.
-
So athletic. Nothing easy as they go after everything. Their coach is a character as well! Fun team to watch
-
Incredible.
-
Really can’t believe they knocked off Purdue. Reminds me of the year George Mason went to the Final Four. That run was stunning.
Only difference is this is a 15 seed!
-
-
The incredible part to me is how the ACC managed to get 3 Elite Eight teams. They must’ve run thousands of algorithms to set the initial matchups in order to accomplish this.

ESPN sports center this morning. Shows Jayhawk highlights, they talk a little about KU being only 1 seed left and how 2 of the 4 sole surviving 1 seeds have won it all. The female host then says “lets talk about a great game, Miami, and ISU”. Excuse me? What was great about that game? A 14 point win? A 10 and 11 seed. I just hate ESPN so much.

That was literally the worst game of the night. Idiots with an agenda.

Edert’s got it! And he’s fouled by Mintz with 7.4 on the clock!
