NCAA Tournament Thread

Hawaii takes down Cal. Barkley was bragging about how tough the Pac was and how Oregon should have been the top seed. So far they have 1 win, Utah.

 

[I.I.]

Middle Tennessee a pretty good CUSA team. Not a 15 seed.

 

[TUMe]

Bakersfield is the dirtiest team I seen since Hawaii back in the day

Still hope they beat the crap out of OU.

 

[TU_BLA]

Sparty goes down!!!!

 

[nevadanatural]

MSU is goin' down. Lots of busted brackets.

 

[I.I.]

Wojcik will not understand this outcome. Manning and our Seniors remember MTSU from two years ago.

 

[Tulsafanzz]

I need to quit listening to the experts, when filling out my bracket...."Cal has the most talent in the nation"..."Michigan State is definitely a 1 seed". At least I didn't listen to Looonardi, who said there was no way Little Rock could compete with Purdue.

 

[I.I.]

I've seen Temple win a couple of these miracles this year. Probably not this one.

And Utah is pretty new to the P-12

GO TU!!!!

 

[nevadanatural]

Like I say, pick against the BiG and the Pac and you will normally do good in a bracket. Oddly MSU is the one who usually goes against that philosophy.

 

[I.I.]

Another Temple miracle 3 off a missed free throw. Brings back bad memories but good for Temple. Go beat Iowa in OT

 

[TulsaCane95]

Temple is now in OT

 

[Bill Lowery]

Add an Iowa player fouling Decosey on a 3-pointer with 3 seconds left and he makes all 3 to go to OT.

Temple ties itt.

Nice to be in a multi bid conference with several teams to cheer for.

Is Temple that tough or that lucky? Man they have won a lot of these type of games.

GO TU!!!!

 

[TU_BLA]

Templ just ran the worst 4 on 2 fast break in the history of basketball and got an and-1 out of it

 

[T Up]

Iowa has shot 22 free throws to Temples 9
And then Iowa hits the game winner at the buzzer

 

[I.I.]

obi was clearly pushed in the back for that game winning tip in.

 

[nevadanatural]

Iowa got away with a lot of pushing and grabbing inside.

 

[TulsaCane95]

I wonder if the names were reversed, would the refs call the push?

 

[Tu Geo]

Two arms full extension by the Iowa player on the pushoff.

Not a word from the commentators.

GO TU!!!

 

[TulsaCane95]

After the commercial the announces came back and showed the play again. They acknowledged it was a push off but it wasn't called by the refs.

 

[I.I.]

Someone in the tournament central told them they had better address it since it will be shown 500 times tonight.

 

[TU_BLA]

Cannot tell you how hard I will laugh if OU loses to Cal Junior College Bakersfield

 

[Tu Geo]

They just said that this is just the ninth year in D-1 for Bakersfield.

GO TU!!!

 

[TulsaCane95]

Temple's coach handles the situation much better than I would....

I totally agree. The AAC is 1-2 but we had our chances and Temple should have won. Come on Cincy.

 

[Tulsafanzz]

Tulsa & Temple both should've won. The Big 10 isn't that good this year.

 

[Tulsafanzz]

I loved the intensity that Middle Tennessee played with today. That is how a team should play in this tournament.

 

[TU 1978]

I like SFA over WV at the half.

 

[Bill Lowery]

If any of you are watching Oregon and Holy Cross, watch 6-10 F Chris Boucher for Oregon. A healthy Geno Artison will give us that same look. Blocks shots, dunks on alley oops, hits 3-pointers and rebounds. Both are very mobile, thin big men who can do most everything.

 

[lawpoke87]

I like SFA over WV at the half.

SFA coach will be prowling the sidelines in Stillwater next season.

 

[TU_BLA]

Pac 12 and B1G have been awful in the tournament.

As for WVa...is Huggy Bear gonna have a coronary in the sideline in this one.

Sorry LawPoke, Gottlieb is the Vegas favorite for the Poke job. Would be a dumb hire IMO. Underwood has the Sutton scowl going.

 

[TU_BLA]

Refs starting to take over the WVa and SFA game.

 

[TU_BLA]

SFA has re-grouped and started making buckets. Huggy Bear called his final timeout with 7 minutes left.

 

[bigzit]

WV players are playing football. That guy should get kicked out.

 

[TU_BLA]

Huggy Bear just got T'd up...and it took a basket away from SFA

Take it from someone who filled out all their brackets a half hour before the games started...I would not have picked Cal over Hawaii in any of them had I known their star player fractured his hand and was out. That was announced like half an hour after the games started and picks were locked. Ugghh. Also not lost on anybody that this is the second time in three years that beating SFA would have been our path to the Sweet Sixteen had we been able to make it to the Round of 32 either time. Oh well.
