NCAA Tournament Thread

Notre Dame played zone in 1st half. Despite what any nat'l. commentators say, Tulsa's man to man D was a big factor in Michigan's poor 3 point shooting Wednesday night.
I wish there was a real playoff like this in college football where we could see lots of the mighty p5 teams crash.
Northern Iowa over Texass on a half court buzzer beater!!!!
If we had to lose, I'd prefer to lose the way we did instead of the way Temple & Cincy lost. Incredibly tough losses for the AAC today.
Would have been hard. Coulda woulda shoula. We did fine on this, Missouri history aside.
UConn could definitely beat KU. Good guards, a good rim protector and a lot of confidence and momentum.
WSU couldn't quite pull it off. Now after listening to Larranaga I can't stop saying "yuge" as in the effort was YUGE.
How many shots can Baker take that go half way down and spin out? He seemed snakebite in the two main bracket games WSU played
Eric McClellan had a great game looked like a really good player tonight. That makes three players that had very successful NCAA Tourney games after leaving the program. Hill had a great game against Memphis and McLean had a nice run for Xavier. I always suspected that Hill and McLean left because Wojcik was a prick. I guess some posters might know other more PC reasons.
Clarkson's success in the NBA has also been a pleasant surprise. It never ceases to amaze me how many good players he actually recruited. But all the guys that left seemed to do better without Wojcik.
GO TU!!!

It's because they're not good enough and that's why we keep getting stuck with them.
Bingo. As thinking the exact same thing. They are tenacious and quick and undersized. Underwood gets more out of his talent than coaches who have superior talent.
SFA got screwed. Crap over the back call with a minute left and crap call on the layup contest at 45 seconds.
The call on the layup usually goes that way but I totally agree on the over the back. Both went straight up, minimal contact and the SFA player tipped it out. That's a no call for a good official. I have to say I can't remember a NCAA tourney that's been called this tight. One of the early games had more fouls called than shots taken at halftime.
Wow...you're right about something. Last 2 minutes SFA went into the DW offense and cleared out for Walkcup when their motion and ball movement and backdoor cuts gave ND fits all game. The foul on Vasturia was bogus as the SFA player went straight up. The over the back call was egregiously bad. That call would not have been made in the 1st minute of the game. If it's not a foul then, it's not a foul at the end.
He's improved his game every year at OU. He's a great story and seems like a good kid. Best of luck to him in the league.
We didn't chat much about Gonzaga dismantling Utah last night. 30 pt win...good grief. Utah was severely over-seeded IMO. Gonzaga was about where their resume should have been rated. Gonzaga's size can create some big issues for teams and if they're hitting their shots they can be tough.
I was extremely disappointed when McLean left. He was set to be a superstar here and potential CUSA POY. Wojcik ran a lot of kids off and I could never figure out why
