He makes both. Free throw matter

Aggies drain 3...77-76...wide open

Aub just horrible in the last 2 min

 

[bac2therac]

This is going exactly how it needs to for NMSU...thread the needle. Aub giving them all the help

 

[RUJMM78]

Auburn up one point with six seconds remaining.

 

[bac2therac]

Aub to line..6 sec

Misses first...makes 2nd

Aggies fouled on the 3...wow

[MadRU]

Pressure busts pipes

 

[bac2therac]

[bac2therac]

[bac2therac]

1.1

 

[RUJMM78]

Missed foul shots by New Mexico State allowed Auburn to win 78-77.

 

[bac2therac]

Airball

Auburn survives but they dont deserve it

Man have to feel bad for the Aggie player who could have won it by making all 3 ft

 

[DHajekRC84]

Little Ricky vs the school that fired Daddy! Oh the drama!

You know the ncaa loved setting that up.

 

[MadRU]

Maryland not looking good

 

[bac2therac]

All 3 games so far the winning team had to win the game 2x

Great start to the tourney

 

[bac2therac]

Maryland not looking good

Belmont 9 pt lead! Havent been able to see any of this yet

Sparty cannot gain seperation from Bradley

Or the kid who gave up the guaranteed ot by just making the layup.

 

[RUJMM78]

On to Belmont leading Maryland 29-19 ,seven minutes remaining first half.

 

[bac2therac]

Sparty badly outplayed

 

[bac2therac]

Or the kid who gave up the guaranteed ot by just making the layup.

Yes

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

That MD poster hates Turgeon. Maybe he is right.

 

[bac2therac]

Belmont shooting the lights out

 

[bac2therac]

That MD poster hates Turgeon. Maybe he is right.

Honestly is there any coach in the Big 10...perhaps America that does less with more than Turgeron

 

[bac2therac]

Caught less of Vermont/FSU than any other game but looking like FSU is going to pull it out. Great try tho

 

[RUJMM78]

Maybe UCLA which has been in a down ward spiral for years .

 

[bac2therac]

Belmont shooting the lights out

Maryland fighting back cutting it to 6

 

[dconifer0]

That MD poster hates Turgeon. Maybe he is right.

NOt sure if you mean me, but "hate" is a strong word. I just don't think he's good enough for our program...

 

[bac2therac]

Maryland fortunate to be down 6 but did look better the last 5 minutes.

Anybody see the new $95 million duel sports arena Vermont is building supported by a 15MILL. donation . ?

One side is a basket ball arena and next to it (attached) is a hockey facility. Really cool looking.

 

[bac2therac]

Izzo fired up..boy was he hot as his players...GRF not gonna like

 

[bac2therac]

Chris Mullin

True but Turgeron has had way more talent

 

[bac2therac]

And Maryland like gangbusters...huge run....21-5...10 points in first 2 minures

 

[RUsince52]

Most of the games I've watched so far the refs seem to be letting them play, especially in the first half. No ticky tacky calls and other things resemble a football practice. That's one area where we could benefit from no calls. However, most of the teams convert the free throws unlike us.

 

[RUHotTrumpetMonkeyLove]

Izzo fired up..boy was he hot as his players...GRF not gonna like

Why was Izzo pissed at his players? I missed it. Heard he had to be held back.

Auburn dodged three bullets so luck might not be on their side in round 2.

 

[ScarletteK80]

He went freakin beserk, not just pissed off. He was upset at this one kid in particular(don't know his name, he is a freshman). The other players had to hold Izzo back, he wouldn't let up. Wild scene. Of course he is pissed that the score has been so close to Bradley. Great,great emotion both teams and crowd.

 

[ScarletteK80]

Oh, and score is 54-53 M.State up with 7+ left.

 

[bac2therac]

Belmont fighting back

 

[bac2therac]

This is absurd that Sparty is up only 1
