Or if they had been placed in the East bracket and advanced, the Sweet 16 would be in my backyard in DC. Getting placed in Tulsa and potentially Anaheim is a bit rough on the travel budget. Overall though, I agree it's a favorable bracket. Some people say Texas Tech is a bad match-up, but maybe UB is a bad match-up for them?!? Then add that with the women being in Storrs, but playing at the exact same time as the men. WTF. If you want a nice road trip next season... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want a nice road trip next season... yeah how about those UB Women? pretty cool. But if they manage to get by Rutgers they get to play 30-win UConn on their home floor. UC might be the only #2 seed in history to be favored to win the tournament. Making the Sweet-16 this year would require the upset of the century in WBB.

Gordio Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 30 minutes ago, PromoTheRobot said: Anything could happen in the tournament but I really like the draw UB got. I think they are a bad matchup for ASU. The Sun Devils are careless with the ball & UB strives on getting buckets & open looks in transition. Texas Tech will be a tough matchup as their defense is very good but it is definitely a winnable game. That would be great if they make it to the second weekend.

I was getting worried watching ASU run over St.Johns but you could see them lose focus as the game went on. Do that against Buffalo and you're toast.

Nextmanup Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Watching now. I noticed ESPN2 has women's "whip around" coverage of like 3 different game, including UB women. Is that the only way to see the women's team? I'd record it and watch later if I could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gonzo1105 Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 I am not a fan of Buffalo outside of Hey i'm from the area let me root for them. I"m an FSU fan so I haven't followed a ton. I did work for UB and have met Nate Oats, he seems like a down to earth kind of guy. I'm watching this game and can't help that I want to punch Bobby Hurley in the face just by his constant negativity and reactions on the sidelines. A typical dukey in my mind and he hasn't changed since his playing days. Did he act like this at Buffalo? It doesn't surprise me that he has been T'd up so much this year. You can also see the huge difference in coaching demeanor's between this two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
