The Mighty PAC12

OU managed to take Rhode Island to overtime before losing as expected. What a joke they were even in this tournament.
Only takeaway from that game is Trae Young is really ugly and Danny Hurley is really bald. Nothing else.
They ain't just out, they got thrashed by 21 at the hands of a 13 seed. That's more than just out! Embarasskinned, bet they know where Buffalo, NY is.
In spite of how bad the PAC12 was this year, I would still like a PAC12/AAC basketball matchup like the other conferences are doing.
That is a really good comparison actually. Undersized and Arizona tried to exploit it by forcing the ball into Ayton everytime and Buffalo bracketed him. Buffalo sure can shoot.
Gonna laugh when the AAC gets 3 teams to the Sweet 16 (then cry realizing as the 4th place team we're a lot better than a lot of the slugs that made it-Syracuse, Arizona State, OU).
Syracuse is really making it hard on you.
Boeheim zone responsible for subpar Syracuse team advancing to Sweet Sixteen? ;0)
It's like they only turn it up for the tourney. I remember the same thing happened a couple years ago. They barely got in, but then they made it to the final four. I believe that was the same year we got the surprising at large also
That's what some Wichita St fans claim. Coach Marshall says they do better at tourney time. He says they are harder to prepare for in a day or two. Not this year. But Boeheim's zone probably follows the same logic as that claim by Marshall. They probably only have to turn it up a half a notch and then take advantage of that zone.
Statistically I think Syracuse has “overachieved” more often than any other NCAA tournament team in the past 25 year’s. Comes down to one word. the ZONE. Not like anybody’s else’s zone.
