The South Bracket (San Antonio)

OSU is young

Besides all off the defensive arguments in your post, this is what I would like to point out. They really arent as young as people really think. They start 2 freshmen, yes, but also 3 vets, including a 5th year. The game should be close, and the winner will be decided on whose part of the game shines more. Will it be OSU's speed and post play, or Tenn's perimeter game.

And Oden ups the average age of that team anyways, right? :P

Solid Point, both teams have some vets and youths.

 

Guess we will see who wins when the game comes.

Should be a good one. The upside of the lack of upsets is that we should see a very high level of basketball played in the next few rounds, which should really make this tourney exciting as hell.

Great looking bracket on paper. ATM and Memphis should be a classic, although I have a bad feeling about Memphis in a virtual road game with Douglas Roberts hobbling. For some reason, I think Ohio State is going to step up and give Tennessee some big issues tonight.

 

Predictions:

 

Ohio State 77

Tennessee 66

 

Memphis 68

Texas A&M 66

HOW THE f*** DO YOU TAKE 1.1 OFF? THAT IS f***ING GARBAGE

I dont agree, the ball has to touch something out of bounds before the clock stops. From the bounce to when it hits the scorers table is how much time should have been taken off. They sat there with a stop watch and got the call correct.

A&M got jobbed on that last call, should have had another second easy. Of course it would have been moot if they could get a rebound...

Rweind your tivo and watch it again and time it yourself. From the moment it touches the players hand to the moment that it touches the scorers table is how much time should have come off the clock.

It's the time it takes to touch something out of bounds. It did not touch the tableuntil much after he touched it. Officials got it right.

exactly. Although it seems wrong, the only thing that was wrong was the official timer trying to keep that time on the clock.

And remember not to time it while in SLO-MO, which is obviously what the refs did.

Nope, you are entirely wrong. They played it real time for them to time it. Rewind and watch that as well, they specifically said the refs want to watch it real time. They got the call right.

If A&M wants to complain, they should complain about the ticky-tack foul at the end since similar fouls have not been called at the end of games in this tournament.

Really if everyone just watches it again you will see they got it correct. I just sat here and watched it real time and they were actually generous IMO. The ball bounces and at least 1 second comes off the clock before it touches the scorers table.

 

They also shot the ball a second too early.

Could Greg Oden be less impressive this tournament so far?

 

The first two games he wasn't that bad, outside of that stretch against Xavier when Matta decided he wanted to go man to man and play Oden on a perimeter player. Plus what do you expect when he's matched up on a much smaller, quicker player? I can't think of too many 7-footers that can keep up with a SF type...
