NCAA Tournament Real Day 1 Open Thread
Just getting something out there while I do no work and watch on CBS MMOD... Clemson looks pretty good again, that win of ours @ Clemson is looking better and better...
Am I the only one who thinks it's hilarious that Morehead State was playing Rick Pitino's team?
Wow, Pitino fucked up that last timeout.
Agrred. they would've been better off without the timeout because Morehead was scrambling/celebrating. Could've caught them off guard.
at least make it over half court so you could setup a real play.
Yeah. I'd have to watch it again, but it seemed like they either inbounded the ball ran almost to half court and then called at TO putting the ball back by the baseline, or they called TO right away, killing their ability to set soething up in the half court.
Pitino messed up really badly there.
but forgot to change my pick. I am furious.
Uh huh, I bet
I also forgot to change my pick for the elite eight, I have pudue getting there. I heard they lost a key player yesterday, so I might as well just quit now.
"I totally had Geogre Mason in '06."
I just discovered that I did change it to Morehead state for my espn bracket, but not for my other one, oh well.
God damnit Morehead State. Had Louisville going to the Sweet 16.
them going to the finals! Ugh.
At this point, my prognastication skills lacking for another year, I am resigned to cheering for U of M. Who I have going to the sweet 16. Probably yet another shitty pick.
I had them in the elite 8. Oh well...
Temple and Penn State in...Tuscon? There are maybe eight total fans of either team in that building.
I'm hoping for an epic collapse by the Big East.
and picked Clemson, ODU, and Louisville?
I also have Penn state and they're most likely about to lose. Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!
Edit: Talor Battle has ice in his veins
I advise you to check out the St Pattys Day Drinking Thread. =)
Wow Taylor Battle just tied it from 30 feet.
by Battle - that was pretty damn deep...
just dropped one in from about 28 feet. Tie game.
I know only white players are allowed to be "gritty," but screw it. Talor Battle is gritty.
How many of my picks are going to lose via buzzerbeaters today?
I suck at life
cheer up. We're on in 20 hours.
How often do those last second shots hit the media board? I don't think he got it off in time but still...
That's gotta be killer for Penn State. Couldn't happen to a nicer team/fanbase.
Anddd now it's been 10 years since Penn State has won a NCAA tournament game.
well, princeton is up on UK. could be a bad day for the state of kentucky, the city of morehead excluded.
Has everyone seen the boss button that is in the cbs online stream?? Pretty darn handy if ya ask me, especially for those of you at work on this beautiful st. patricks day!
EDIT: Only present in full screen I think
There will be a mass suicide watch in the Commonwealth tonight if KY loses. The Hollers will be full of gunfire.
Born in Lexington, Mom/Uncle UK grads. Dad UM and got mom and us kids back to Michigan ASAP.
I'm torn. I feel really dirty for rooting for Kentucky, because Calipari is a massive sleaze. But after Michigan going as far as possible, my next priority for this tournament is to see OSU eliminated ASAP. I want their road to be as hard as possible and UK is in their bracket.
I'd rather have the sick upset. My bracket in the southwest region is looking bad anyway. If Purdue looses then I'm really screwed.
I got Richmond and Morehead St. advancing with Morehead St. going to Sweet 16. I'm happy with the two upset picks! Richmond frontcourt is going to have to work hard against Kenneth Faired who is an outstanding rebounder.
