Simon Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Having dead air with no games scheduled to start for another 20 minutes, both at 10pm on a weeknight is just horrible freaking scheduling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LewPort71 Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 When the team you root for gets beaten in the NCAA's, Do you lose all interest.? Root FOR the team that beat them? Root AGAINST the team that beat them ? Hope that your bracket still can win, since everyone else's bracket is broken also? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 The ACC, trashed all year, sends three teams to the Elite 8. Some things never change. I really can’t believe that if the Tar Heels beat Saint friggin’ Peter’s they are going to the Final Four. That’s crazy; a little over a month ago they were a bubble team and lost at home to Pittsburgh. Miami is athletic and really well coached. And the young Dookies finally look like they are playing free…but I’m still rooting hard for Arkansas tonight. Great tournament. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most Carolina and Dook fans alike dread the prospect of facing each other in this scenario. It’s the ultimate rivalry win (or loss). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CookieG Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 KU made it to the Elite 8 without their All American guard, Agbaji, showing up for the tourney yet. His shooting percentage has been 35 percent, 35 percent and 20 percent in 3 games. On the other hand, their star transfer, Remy Martin, is finally healthy and has shown up in a big way. He's a one man show. They are still a very streaky team... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My best friend from college had a daughter who played for St Peter’s and they would attend a ton of home and away games. (He learned his way around NYC pretty well!) He sent me pictures of them celebrating the last win, all wearing their St Peter’s gear. Oh my! It looked like college all over again! Months ago we were looking at the schedule for a nearby performing arts center. We noticed a couple comedians (Kathleen Madigan and Leann Morgan) were playing on back to back nights. Great venue, so we bought tickets for both shows. It wasn’t until this week did I realize it was Elite Eight weekend. Ooops! Of course, we have dinner before the shows with friends, just to be sure I miss as much as possible. 😓 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LewPort71 Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Justin Moore of Villanova out with a torn Achilles tendon. He's a junior and could return for next season after successful surgery and rehab. Nova will have a tough time without him playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 For gawds sake do they have to call a foul every time two guys touch each other? They called almost 40 in the last game and are approaching that pace again in this one. Refs that need to involve themselves in every minute of the game are hurting this sport. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CookieG Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 KU choked its way through the first half. It was looking like a typical Bill Self choke job. Watching NC's injuries was like watching a football game, guys going down every other possession. They gave a hell of an effort. It wasn't the best played game, but at least it was close. I'll take March Madness over the college football playoffs any day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Does anyone ever root for Kansas? I sort or forget about them. But they are always in the mix of things every year. will be interesting to see the slap on the wrist Bill Self gets by the NCAA now for the pending investigation.
