UCLA was up 16 late first half... Kent State has cut it to 4.

There is this narrative that if you have your 4 year old pick the bracket, flip a coin, or pick based on colors only you would do better than someone who actually watches basketball. GTFO. No chance. If you did that, half your #1 and #2 seed would be gonzo by the end of the 1st day.

Seeing how the only 2 games I've gotten wrong so far were 6 seeds that lost to 11 seeds. No I don't think that picking upsets is MY problem. You sound a little bitter though, so I'll go ahead and assume you were venting about something else.

K-State got rolled, as usual.

TLO 03-17-2017 09:45 PM

Edit: Glad KU gets Michigan State on Sunday.

Maybe it's the 2nd round that will be "madness" this time around? It's tough to beat the first round we got last year.

Why Not? 03-18-2017 12:57 AM

Easiest $ in sports betting. Take double digit underdogs to cover when it's a small, in state school versus a blue blood on a big stage. Kids from the likes of N Kentucky and FGCU play their ass off to show that they deserved the scholarships that went to the UK and FSU kids.

Otherwise, KU U of A and WSU all alive still so I'm happy. But, yes, overall kinda boring tourney from an upset or even a real good ending perspective.

It will continue until the link between college and the pros changes.

Guys are simply trying to make a big splash in college to get noticed, then bail before the NBA sees too much.

Something has to change

Another year in college?
Mandatory time in the developmental league ala MLB minor leagues?
Both?

KChiefs1 03-18-2017 12:16 PM

Basketball is almost unwatchable.

another shit game

Bearcat 03-18-2017 12:34 PM

Hard to believe it was a little over two hours, felt like it was on my TV for 3 hours with the 40+ free throws and six thousand commercial breaks.

And sadly, this WVU team is more watchable than usual.

Hammock Parties 03-18-2017 12:47 PM

Still can't believe a game got decided yesterday because of a flippin' flagrant foul call when the kid was going for an intentional foul.

Wisconsin is more black this year than normal.

Seems to be paying dividends.

K-State. Wants to fire their coach. Who has had one of the best few year runs in the history of their program. LOL

Weber has went to NCAA Tourney 3 out of 5 years. The 2013 K-State team under Weber that Tied KU for a conference championship was the BEST TEAM & RESULTS K-State has ever had since 1976.

I mean, you are K-State, who are you going to get who is any better? Nobody.

I hope all 1 thru 4 seeds get to the S16 and no upsets!

I also root for these guys in movies

I watch all tourney games but Arizona is one of the teams I pull for(until they run into WSU or KU)so I'll have some people over for that and I am wanting to see if Northwestern can keep it close. MTSU Butler should be good. I still consider Butler a small school so that's a win as far as a little guy to the Sweet 16

Why Not? 03-18-2017 02:19 PM

Why Not?'s easy $ of the day(you can still act on 3 of these)

Teaser:

Wisc +9.5
Northwestern +15
U of A -.5
UVA FLA under 131

RealSNR 03-18-2017 02:36 PM

Koenig and Happ in foul trouble means it's game over for Wisconsin. Nova is going to go on a run, and UW won't be able to recover

tk13 03-18-2017 02:40 PM

Nova should be pulling away and getting some space with Wisconsin's foul trouble... but they aren't.

Happ has always been awful at free throws.

Told ya. Nova mucked around, now they've got a game on their hands. Koenig will kill you in late game situations.

Why Not? 03-18-2017 02:59 PM

Nova taking awful shots down the stretch. My cover is good but my bracket is toast if Nova doesn't stop ****ing around.

If they call this a flagrant it's going to ruin a great game.

RealSNR 03-18-2017 03:06 PM

SON OF A BITCH! :#

Nova was pressing. Why the hell did you throw it back and invite more trouble? Call a timeout for ****'s sake!

ChiliConCarnage 03-18-2017 03:07 PM

Damn, that foul on Hayes. It's fair but dunno

RealSNR 03-18-2017 03:07 PM

If this is it, what an awful way to lose for UW

RealSNR 03-18-2017 03:08 PM

Free throw line hasn't been kind to either team. Both teams have bricked important opportunities

RealSNR 03-18-2017 03:09 PM

Hayes makes up for the foul!

tk13 03-18-2017 03:10 PM

Let's see if Nova has another last second shot in their arsenal.

tk13 03-18-2017 03:11 PM

What a defensive play by Brown. Just reached in and grabbed it.

RealSNR 03-18-2017 03:12 PM

Geesh. That dude carried it like he was Walter ****ing Payton

Wisconsin with an all time luck win. They are 100% shit.

Great offense all afternoon by Villanova, smh. Literally one pass and then one on one would happen most of the time. Awful job by Jay Wright.

Wow, amazing. I think nova was really great but single game happens. Great job by wisckey

Shit ending. My bracket is ****ed. I should have known a team from Philly would shit themselves with expectations. I'm sick of ****ing Wisconsin. I'm sure they'll make the Final 4 along with Michigan State somehow.

How the hell was that a luck win? The officiating was even on both sides. Wisconsin made mistakes, but also coupled those mistakes with big plays.

If you want to argue that Villanova took shit shots and made poor decisions on offense, that's totally fine, but that's not luck.

Wisconsin earned that one.

Why Not? 03-18-2017 03:58 PM

Northwestern is awful

Why Not? 03-18-2017 04:05 PM

They're not even gonna come close to covering the 15 points. What a no show. Happy to win one tourney game and then become fodder for Gonzaga. Pathetic.

BWillie 03-18-2017 04:10 PM

I have Gonzaga winning most of my pools. I also had Nova to the FF or Championship game in alot of them too :(

New World Order 03-18-2017 04:39 PM

Fake NCAA tournament

Hammock Parties 03-18-2017 04:53 PM

Another shit game between NW and Gonzaga.

And unlike the first two days, they don't run games at the same time for the most part, just so they can stretch out the broadcast all ****ing day.

Just a dumb money grab. Make this a 32-team tournament or something.

Why Not? 03-18-2017 05:12 PM

I've yet to see an individual player have a worse game than Macintosh of NW is having.

So did anyone else hear the "gorilla jam" comment in the Xavier/FSU game? I'm sure he meant nothing by it, but you know someone is going to cry "RACIST" about it.
