I'll probably find the time to keep daily updated brackets in the thread. In the mean time, who do you have winning it all? Kentucky a lock? Teams lose. So I don't think so. I truly believe undefeated hurts you going into The Dance.

Virginia's head coach Tony Bennett comes from Wazzu and I remember being happy the day he left even though I wondered why Virginia? Not rooting for them. I really don't know.

I expect Kansas to not make the sweet 16 potentially. Definitely not a championship contender (which would make it all the sweeter should they defy the odds).

National Titles tend to soothe fans.

So your argument basically amounts to stats lie, then. That's fine.

Fans, yes. Not trolls.

So much stupid packed in one post

No. Not at all.

My argument is common sense.

If you REALLY think what they did tonight gave them a better chance to win than playing for a stop ...

I'm just telling you what the statistical fact of the matter is. Fouling gives them the best chance. You can either choose to believe it or not.

There's no need to use common sense. Statistcially it was hideously indefensible.

If they wanted to extend you foul anyone but Jones or Cook. (Winslow proved that by missing both with 14 left)

Hootie · 04-06-2015, 10:36 PM

I'm sure it most certainly depends on who you foul

It certainly would be better if you fouled a worse shooter. That's also a statistical fact.

Hootie · 04-06-2015, 10:38 PM

I can ****ing statistically guarantee you,

, that fouling that guy with 25 seconds left did not give them a better chance to win then playing for a stop

...LMFAO

thabear04 · 04-06-2015, 10:48 PM

Great game by Duke but I think one of the greatest game was Jayhawks vs Memphis.

And you'd be wrong to make that guarantee.

All season long everybody talked about Okafor. In the end, guards win National Titles, not big men. If you want to know the thing holding Self back in the tourney, it's not landing the elite point guards.

This is why I am hopeful for a future with an upperclassman Graham, Selden, Greene, and Mason.

Except when it's Anthony Davis? Best and most impactful college player I've ever seen.

I certainly like the looks of two of them.
