Final Four Game 1 Open Thread
Gottlieb when he said "the world is round."
If anyone said that to me on the air like I didn't know it, I would love some professionalism.
Jeez... Gottlieb looks like the biggest douche in the country and every time he opens his mouth he only seems to confirm it. The fact that he's a ND makes it a million times more annoying.
did greg gumbel just call them the wichita state "stalkers"?
i like it... and they're making louisville nervous.
the longer wichita state hangs around the pressure will build for louisville
with even more 'experts' on the panel who demonstrate to the world that they know about as much as the average folks watching at home.
I feel like the only time I ever hear about it, it's because it's scoring like 5 pts on 10% shooting in big games. But I thought he was supposed to be sweet or something
Does anyone know how that Louisville player who broke his leg is doing?
if Syracuse hadn't obliterated Indiana last weekend. (Caveat: their guards height and Zeller being a mamsy-pamsy)
But this is still painful.
witchita st corn stalkers?
We commit the fewest fouls in the country, so tighter officiating will almost certainly hurt our opponent more than us.
Man, I was sure wrong about louisville opening up a big lead. They look worried.
I think the talking heads at halftime were right. Louisville let Wichita St get comfortable at the beginning of the game and now they're in the zone. Louisvillle needed to come out and hit cinderella in the mouth but they let em build a 8-0 lead. Now look at where they are
shockers gonna shock the world??
Just switched from being openly for Lville to playing the Cinderella card
They've also stopped showing Ware every two minutes. The CBS directors seem to be pushing a different storyline this half.
Honestly, if I didn't know the seeds or names of the teams, I'd assume Wichita was the favorite. They've looked like the better team most of the night.
Anyone else noticing how far out Pitino walks out on the court even when there's a play in that half happening? He might get called for that later.
Tom Izzo has been doing that for over a decade now and he never gets called.
for doing that at Crisler will be a banner one for all of us.
Starting to take more of a look at Wichita St as our Monday night opponent.
unreal
because (should we beat Syracuse) it reminds me too much of the hockey team's 2010 run where they were underdogs or widely picked to lose in every game..until the title game where we were finally favored and we looked like we lost a step. Would be the same setup for the basketball team. I think it has a way of taking the chip off your shoulder
