Official NCAA tournament thread day 2

[pisgah101]

What do we expect today??

 

[The Only Blue]

I think VCU will give St Mary's fits with their defense.

 

[bleediteveryday30]

16 games today. How many upsets will we witness? I hope to see Iona hornswoggle Uconn and Providence catnip the Kitty Kats.

I’d be good with those even though I picked UConn to lose to us

I have both going deep like a virgin on prom night, but my bracket pool doesn't matter if Duke keeps winning and all these chumps keep losing. I actually only missed Princeton over Zona yesterday. So, I'm in good shape for now. Of course, I also had Zona in the Elite Eight, so that hurts me a bit.

 

[The Only Blue]

Want Providence to take down Kentucky so I can see another 100 threads of wanting Cal fired

I read Myron Metcalf's article yesterday on Cal and his relationship with that fanbase worth the time to check it out because I think Cal is in trouble if they don't make a deep run and especially if they lose today. A substantial portion of that fanbase wants him gone now. The noise will only intensify with a loss today.

 

[christophero]

RR is really dreading another first round exit.

 

[bleediteveryday30]

Fingers crossed.

 

[GillJET]

Looking forward to the 2nd and 3rd session of games today. Most excited about seeing the Wolfpack and UK games.

 

[Badabingbadaboom]

Providence has failed in the past to deliver a knockout blow for us. Don’t trust em.

For the most part, they've always been frauds. I would put more faith in K-State taking care of the kitty kats than Ed Cooley's guys.

 

[JustAfanatic]

Keennesaw looks like they’ll hang with Xavier til the end.

 

[christophero]

Xavier in big trouble. Michigan State beating USC.

 

[bleediteveryday30]

Xavier is no longer in trouble.

 

[bleediteveryday30]

Xavier on a 15-0 run to go up two after being down 61-48.

 

[bleediteveryday30]

Keenesaw State has made ONE FG in the last 9 minutes. You're not pulling off an upset with that kind of offensive output.

 

[The Only Blue]

Damn. So close for Kennesaw state

The beautiful thing is they cannot afford to fire him. Like Jimbo at A and M.

 

[bleediteveryday30]

Baylor is moving on. So all chalk thus far on day two.

 

[bleediteveryday30]

Also, here's my daily reminder that officiating in college basketball is ***.

 

[Ioliva]

Pittsburg with the early lead

 

[kwyjibos13]

Definitely X colored glasses by the refs. So bad they went to Gene Steretore who had to take a deep breath and pause before he gave the “good no call” company line…

 

[denverexpat]

Iowa St has 2 points in 10 mins vs Pitt

 

[kwyjibos13]

Iowa State has not done anything against someone not named Baylor in awhile…

 

[bleediteveryday30]

Dang, Pitt had a 20-point lead!

 

[bleediteveryday30]

Marquette is moving on—all chalk still on Day Two.

 

[bleediteveryday30]

Pitt was up 22-2, it is 28-23. Capel has a tough job ahead of him at halftime.

 

[denverexpat]

pitt decided to score 6 points in the last 10 mins

 

[bleediteveryday30]

Pitt is lucky they got to the charity stripe; otherwise, Iowa State would be closer.

 

[The Only Blue]

Pitt letting ISU stay in the game. So sloppy with the ball

 

[The Only Blue]

Capel and Pitt advancing but looks like NC State gonna lose to Creighton.

 

[bleediteveryday30]

So happy for Jeff and his kids! Now go beat Xavier!

 

[bleediteveryday30]

Creighton is good that Blake H.R. Pufnstuf guy is a pure shooter. I was hoping State could get the win. That only leaves Pitt, Miami, and Duke left in it.

 

[JohnstonCDevil]

A good win for Pitt!! Happy for Jeff!!

OFC

 

[bleediteveryday30]

Outside of Pitt, the lower seeds are falling today after an upset-laden first day.

 

[christophero]

I really like Creighton and that Baylor S. kid. Gottleib is right; when Creighton is healthy they are a top 10 team. I think they beat Baylor next.

 

[Fourteen44]

Is UConn already national champ? That’s how all the cbs announcers are acting,

 

[bleediteveryday30]

Agreed. They're living in Danny Hurley's ******* right now. This is one game. Can they win it? Yep. But it is the first freaking round.

 

[christophero]

Wow that was a little too descriptive.
