Oh yeah. Fouls in that first half were completely one-sided. It kept Syracuse in the game.
SWEET 16 THREAD 3-28
- Thread starter Jamal Mercer
- Start date
houston just the tougher team. they got this.
I can't tell if Pat Adam's is corrupt or just the worst ref I have ever seen.
Well, worst time for the worst offensive performance in Cuse history. Nice run anyway, didn’t feel like it was so much what Houston did as much as ‘Cuse just missing everything. They got looks.
I mean it wasn’t even a fight, Stipe looked completely outclassed, barely threw a punch.
Sure wasn't much of a fight. He took some big shots in the first, but not even Stipe can continue to eat those types of shots for very long. Ngannou looks like the Incredible Hulk in there. Dude is jacked.
lol. They just interviewed the guy who bit a UC basketball player a little over ago year. Had a good game tonight though. 9 points and 0 bites.
Would like to see a super heavyweight division, not sure how fair it is for a guy to fight at what 30 lbs heavier than Stipe?
Kinda like the game plan Cal had to beat Sampson and Houston in the NCAA tournament the last time UK played Houston.
Are you saying I don’t understand what the movement is based on? I’m not trying to be a dick, just trying to understand what you’re saying.
I don't know the full backstory on all of those names but, I can tell you that 6 deaths does not constitute "systemic racism. I hate that anyone dies violently but, when you run afoul of the law you do risk a confrontation with police. George Floyd, for example was not some innocent pedestrian who just happened to be strolling down the street when he ran into police officers. He had a long rap sheet and had just passed a counterfeit check. Plus, he was full of enough Fentanyl to kill three people.
Gonzaga vs Creighton
Florida St vs Michigan
Alabama vs UCLA
Oregon vs USC
Who ya got? I’m going with Zags, Noles, Bama and USC.

Would love to see FSU take out Michigan and put the Big 10 out to pasture.
Would love to see Gonzaga go down. However, I expect them to hold on and lose in the E8.

I really need Florida State to win today. I hate to say that about an ACC team. I would have had Michigan in the final four if they hadn't had an injury. Teams seem to be doing fine with their late season injuries this year. I really thought Villanova depended way more on Gillespie than they did.
Alabama must win. Don't need UCLA winning anymore.
I predict Creighton gets nuked.

I just feel like this is the Zags year.
Need Bama to send UCLA home. Certainly don’t want to see them win another one.

I'd be stunned to see Creighton challenge Gonzaga. The Big East was mediocre to bad this year, the Jays like to run which is what Gonzaga does better than anyone and see this heading to a 30 pt blowout more than a game. Agree that their first tough game will be in Elite 8.
Rest of games, I'll go Michigan, Alabama, and Oregon.

Watching Gonzaga I'm reminded of the poster yesterday that claimed that it's all about defense. Nobody can make threes.
And they got it wrong too. The old saying of defense wins championships actually isn't true in college basketball. If anything, the more efficient offensive team coming into the games win more often that the defensive based teams.
Either way, you want both lol.
It is about both. It is rare that the team that is heavily weighed to the defense wins the title. Probably the last one was Michigan State in 2000.
I dunno. I mean I could think of like 50 other teams I'd rather NOT see win a title than Gonzaga lol.
I want Gonzaga to win the title just so I don't have to hear about 1976 Indiana anymore.
I don't have anything against them but would hate to see them go undefeated and finish what we couldn't do in 2015.
