Putting back 0.3 on the clock and double timeout took a little fun away from that win. Nothing like a walk off buzzer beater.

Watching final of loyola makes you wonder how rick decided to give duke free pass and pelphery to just ball watch and let it happen
Same. I had them in every bracket so I started to get slightly concerned. Didn't realize KATs little bro was on the team. That's pretty cool
It's pretty sad how empty these arenas are. It's gotten worse every year.
So 2 ACC and 2 PAC 12 teams already out.
If NC St loses, it'll be 3 down for the mighty ACC in the first quarter of the tourney.

FWIW, the Sagarin Ratings are 42% so far and the Sagarin Recent ratings are 100% so far. The SagCombo that I calculated for the field is also 100%. Kenpom is at 85% (calculated off of ESPN bracket challenge)
The first split between the recent and Combo is the S Dak St vs OSU game. SDak has better recent numbers but they weren't very good most of the season so Ohio state scores out better on the combination.

Good luck to Bama and the Gators for tonight. I'd like to see both get convincing victories.
Of course, and this time, I didn't bite on the hype, and got stung. I have two wrong already. I picked Oklahoma and Miami. I almost picked UNCG, but I'm glad I didn't.
I picked SDSt. Not looking good.
My bracket contest uses upsets though. So any upset is worth a lot of points.

You're right. Thought Syracuse lost too for some reason but they were the ones to take out ASU.
I picked the jackrabbits as well....only down by 4 now
SDST may go down but they ain't going down easy. Keep up the fight Jackrabbits!
I usually pick a lot of upsets, but I didn't pick very many this year. I did pick Marshall over Wichita.....
Dear Lord, please let this be today’s 12/5 upset
I think last year there were no 12/5 upsets.
I still can't get over that. It will go to the grave with me. What a dumb *** play.
Will SHU pull this off?
Looks like it but a lot of time

After this game there will be an intermission
Will probably pick back up again after OUR game. Which, of course, will have it’s own thread

NC State might have been able to get back in it if that Freeman kid didn't go hero ball the last 4 minutes of the game. 36 points but the last 238 seconds of 240 seconds the ball stayed in his hands.
