2014 Final Four Open Thread
Connecticut vs. Florida
followed by
Kentucky vs. Wisconsin
Let's go Florida, UConn, and Wisconsin!!!
I feel like Bo Ryan's Pact with Satan means it's a guarantee that Kentucky finally regresses to the fucking mean from outside and the Badgers win by 7 or so.
That loss will frustrate me forever, because we're better than them.
I'm still hungover in emotions or something from last weekend. I'll watch the later game, I think, and maybe the end of this first one. I'm just sad.
Fuckin' A, we should still be playing.
Well, the Massey predictions for winners for tonight are as follows:
- Florida (72% est. chance), 63-57 predicted median score
- Wisconsin (53% est. chance), 71-69 predicted median score
Wisky is the deal breaker in my group... Although the winner only gets tree fiddy
As long as Florida wins tonight, I'm cashing out a cool grand. Gonna use it to surprise the SO with a trip this summer on a wine tour in the old mission peninsula.
Thanks bro. I might still be alive somehow depending on how this UK game shakes out. Go Kentucky.
I had Florida beating UM in the final.
Refs miss an elbow to the face from Wilbiken.
That should have been a block.
Yeah, me neither. The NIT ended on Thursday.
This has been an ugly game and a Final 4 that is severely lacking in star power. Can't imagine this will be a highly rated title game.
when your team is still playing.
I hate Wisconsin, but I hope they destroy Kentucky.
The teamcasts have local play by play and color.
TBS - National Broadcast
TNT - Florida and Kentucky team broadcast
TruTV - UConn and Wisconsin team broadcast
I'm still bitter because I just feel like we should be in this final four. I think we beat Kentucky 6-7 times out of ten and their goofy 3pt shooting is the only reason theyre here and we're not.
Go Wisconsin, go UConn. An All-SEC final would be unbearable. "WELL VERNE I THINK NOW SEC IS BEST IN FOOTBALL AND BASKURTBALL"
The first half of this game is making it more frustrating. I mean the Wisconsin game would be a toss up, though I'd probably lean towards Wisconsin. Depends if J-Mo's path of destruction means he could neutralize Kaminsky despite historically have issues with stretch 5s who are taller than him.
But we'd beat either of these teams playing right now.
I just can't watch. All day I've been thinking about how awesome this day last year was and I am reminded of how close we were at getting the chance to do it again.
I've been living in Connecticut for the last couple years and I find myself subconciously always rooting against UConn. I think it has to do with it being the only actual team in this state and that EVERYONE is a UConn fan. Not mad if they win though... just work will be annoying lol. Anyone else have that problem with living in other states?
I live in Oklahoma and the Sooner football fans get quite annoying.
That should have been an offensive foul on Young. An easy call that the refs missed just like Randle last week. Refs are afraid to call offensive fouls on bigs for some reason.
So I checked CBS for the games, and they're on TBS! Talk about backwater. Who knew TBS was still a station? These games should be on broadcast TV. / End rant.
HAHA I thought the same thing WTF why isn't the game on CBS...
These semi final games are almost always more exciting than the finals (except when we are in the finals of course).
God fuck Florida. I can't believe what I'm losing.
Patrick Young is the college version of Chris Bosh. Showing off on the offensive end and a disaster on defense and on the glass.
UConn's guard play > anything FLA can do....
