NCAA Round of 32 Discussion Thread

[bac2therac]

Also the first time 4 schools seeded 13 or higher have made the round of 32.

 

[RUfan1027]

Pretty crazy every seed but a 16 won a game.

 

[RUtix4me]

Is this the official thread? Just want to make sure before I post here.

I’m done with Gonzaga. After that play they pulled last night up 35, throwing the ball off the backboard for a dunk on a fast break, I want nothing to do with these ******** winning the national championship. That’s not what you do in NCAA tournament play to begin with, let alone this year, let alone up 35 points. Disgusting.

Did you also see Iowa not pull starters in final minute as well?

JFC Illinois

Sister Jean giving the Illini more than they can handle.

 

[Shell21]

This is a coaching clinic by porter moser . Hopefully Indiana can’t get him. Also Loyola is no way a 8 seed .

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

Gonna take a DRASTIC change in the way this game is being played for Illinois to pull out a win.

Just trading buckets with Loyola now and can't get it closer than 8.

 

[RUChoppin]

Cockburn is doggin' it - angry at his teammates, not running the floor or fighting for rebounds. Illinois very well may go down.

 

[Salvi's Headband]

I'm loving the Illini going down. Don't GAF about rooting for Big Ten teams.

 

[RUChoppin]

They do look like they're disintegrating. Gassed, out of sorts, Cockburn not showing up in a key spot so far.

 

[RUJMM78]

This could turn out to a bad day for the B1G if Illinois loses.Wisconsin and Rutgers are facing Baylor and Houston. in later games.

 

[RUChoppin]

Wow, Dosunmu is REALLY careless with the ball

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

I think Ayo has 6 turnovers.

 

[RUChoppin]

Dosunmu/Curbelo have a combined 18 pts, 6 rbs, 10 turnovers, and 7 fouls

Illinois completely crapped the bed today

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

Gryffindor wins!

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

I think the refs let Loyola get away with murder all game. maybe it starts out like wanting to even the field a bit to have a good game.. then it snowballs. We've seen our team go into a funk after a string of calls against them (with no balance the other way).

I honestly thought both Ohio State and Illinois were coddled by refs the Big Ten. You let them travel and charge and go over-the-top and do moving picks and they look unbeatable.

Pretty sure it was a few b10 refs.

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

The officiating does change a bit in the tournament and you get get away with a bit more. Hurts the B1G "powerhouses" because they're no longer protected & coddled by the B1G officials.

But hey B1G officiating -- good job. You got your 5 teams with 4 seeds or better....how's that working out?

 

[Joey Bags]

Remember when the B1G was the conference that let the players play and the Big Least was the one that called EVERYTHING?

The officiating in the tourney is SO GOOD compared to the s***show across the B1G this year.

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

This Wisconsin/Baylor game has the potential to be interesting. Badgers have been playing at a high level last few games of regular season and in B1G tournament.

 

[bac2therac]

another case of ncaa/cbs scheduling 2 games on their own and then cramming 3 games on at the same time later tonight

 

[RUChoppin]

Wisconsin keeps missing shots within three feet of the basket.

CBS wants two exclusive windows right? It's the only reason that's ever made sense to me. Awful for viewers.

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

Wisconsin is so painfully slow

 

[RUJMM78]

Baylor leads 42-29 at half time.

 

[RUChoppin]

Why are they sagging off their three-point shooters so much? That, coupled with the misssed point blank shots earlier.

Yeah they do this every year

Man would have been an amazing day to host a west central Jersey watch tailgate, bbq party out back yard!

 

[DHajekRC84]

Whats with the basketballs? Tom Brady in charge of inflation? 2nd long outside shot I have seen pinned between rim and backboard .
