Minny needs to be careful

Need to keep playing at a high level...a few made shots needed to keep a cushion

Louisville d is pretty bad

 

[koko2315]

Murphy with basically a set shot to seal it

 

[bac2therac]

Three point shot matters...sigh

 

[bac2therac]

That missed 3 could have cut it to 7...that might have been it for UL

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

what!

it's a tie let's move on

 

[bac2therac]

How lucky there for UL..still alive

 

[bac2therac]

Vermont off to a good start vs FSU

Yale hanging in as best they could vs LSU

 

[bac2therac]

Just make a few free throws and end it

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

phew!

 

[bac2therac]

Not sure why UL is letting them run clock and then fouling

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

Isiah Washington has had 1 good game all year, vs. us. Splinters tonight

 

[bac2therac]

[bac2therac]

[bac2therac]

Auburn up only 3 vs New Mexico St at half

 

[bac2therac]

This game is taking forever to end

 

[bac2therac]

Wave the friggin white flag already.. all because they gave them that 3

 

[bac2therac]

And the Gophers are the first to advance

 

[AreYouNUTS]

Only a few teams I’d laugh harder at getting dumped early than Louisville!! SEE YA!!

 

[rutger80]

Vermont tied with FSU with a little over 3:00 to go in the 1st half. No one has ever mistaken Leonard Hamilton for the next John Wooden.

 

[bac2therac]

Yale has cut it to 5 with 42 sec left...wow 70-65

 

[RUHotTrumpetMonkeyLove]

If Yale could only hit a three...

 

[bac2therac]

Down to 4..come on

 

[bac2therac]

Yale sure fought hard. Credit LSU for hitting their foul shots. Game within the game...closing it out. Both Minny and LSU were put to the test

 

[T2Kplus10]

B1G 1
ACC 0

 

[kcg88]

Thiam's brother is on NMSU, doubt we see him get in the game though.

 

[Plum Street]

Vermont tied with FSU with a little over 3:00 to go in the 1st half. No one has ever mistaken Leonard Hamilton for the next John Wooden.

Michael Jordan did .

 

[RUJMM78]

is there anything better in sports than these two days of the year

Especially when its raining.

 

[RUJMM78]

Three point shot matters...sigh

Minnesota made eleven 3 points which is six more than season average.Yes, 3 pointers matter and Rutgers really needs to recruit at least one during the off season.

 

[bac2therac]

Auburn repelled the NMex St run for now

 

[bac2therac]

Sparty slow out of the gate vs an overmatched Bradley

 

[RUJMM78]

Vermont with a two point lead over Florida State with 14 minutes remaining.Well coached team showing no fear of higher rated opponent.

 

[RUsince52]

Amazing how we have young guys that can play, but have trouble making baskets. Many of the lesser known teams have no trouble shooting or not turning the ball over. If we're ever getting back to the Dance, we have to improve dramatically in those areas.
Other schools seem to be able identify these kids. Maybe we're looking beyond our needs at the moment.

 

[bac2therac]

There really isnt alot seperating these 13s from the 4s

 

[bac2therac]

Aggies inching closer...auburn missed one and one leaving the door open...73-68 with 50 sec left

 

[bac2therac]

Wow Auburn two straight turnovers

Refs no call fouls..wtf how

 

[bac2therac]

73-69 41 sec..

 

[bac2therac]

Oh my..they hit a deep 3.....73-72..aub to line one and one 15.7

 

[bac2therac]

Makes both and Aub fouls....wtf...why would they foul 14.5...wtf

 

[bac2therac]

Aggies make 1-2..aub back to line with 54% guy shooting
