OHowIHateOhioState but need those bastards to make it out of the first round.
EDIT: I've got them losing to Gonzaga in the second round.
missed on miami already.
So much for my Jackrabbit Sweet 16 sleeper pick
Dakich getting some quality time. Stroked two free throws.
That game was much closer than the end score.
So, they're now showing a 7:40 PM start time for the Houston / SDSU game, due to the fact that they started that pod relatively late and they didn't end up with enough time between the 2nd and 3rd games. Assuming that's accurate, that likely pushes the start of the Michigan game back until at least 10:15, if not 10:30. Just a PSA.
I left work early, Ive got my tablet showing the games next to my monitor and I'm playing a custom map for Heroes of Might and Magic 3 Complete while my wife makes dinner.
Life isn't all bad.
Edit: NCAA Tournament app is laggy as fuck. My mood has dipped a notch.
I just let it run and its gotten a lot better.
Initially it was freezing every several seconds.
But, that might just be because people are getting home from work and switching to the TV.
TBS & TNT apps are working alright. no lagging so far. using my michigan family's xfinity password on my roku.
My whimsical Davison pick looks pretty stupid.
But not as stupid as that horrible man bun the Houston gaurd is rocking.
Shocking.
Villanova destroying Radford by 30 with 11 minutes left. that's a little lopsided even for 1 vs 16
Gray looks like a handful. Can't let him just drive from midcourt to the basket like SDSU is doing. Once he passes the ball off he's not as effective when he gets it back.
Both Houston and San Diego State are in time zones behind us. I guess it would have made too much sense for THEIR game to be the late game and our game be the 7:10 game. But whatever.
Would have been nice for SFA to win that game so that another 3-seed dropped, but ah well.
This Houston game is taking forever.
texas tech came from behind the whole game to be leading by 9 with 25 seconds left. almost picked this game as an upset due to the record of SF Austin.
seems like Houston is dead in the water without Gray... so it depends on whether people think Simpson/MAAR can cover Gray...
i think they can.
SDSU has somehow stayed in the game, but they haven't looked like they are doing anything, but is a 4 point game with 3 min left?!
People wanting to play houston confuse me. Guards going off and being unstoppable is how random teams go on runs.
