Felix Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 QUOTE (Jimbo's Drinker @ Mar 19, 2009 -> 08:19 PM) As I said Pittmann and Abrams would destroy. We just let Abrams run wild on the perimeter, and it destroyed us in the end. It's a shame, especially since it could have been avoided if we actually played defense on him, but oh well. We'll be back next year and might win a few. Good season, I'm glad we made the tournament despite the quick exit. This team is going to be fun to watch in these next few years.

The Bones Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Surprised no one has mentioned Wisconsin's OT win over FSU yet. Second best game of the tournament so far behind tOSU and Siena's double OT thriller. Last night was damn entertaining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan4life_2007 Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Villanova is physically manhandling UCLA. This is hilarious. I hate to sound redundant. But again, how good is the Big East? I've never seen one conference with this much depth before in my life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxbadger Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 (edited) I still cant believe Wisconsin won. Not that I thought they would lose before the game started, but when they were down 12 it looked pretty bleak. Edit: And games like OSU/Sienna and Wisconsin/FSU are why the Big 10 gets the benefit of the doubt when it comes to being in the NCAA tournament. Big 10 games are usually competitive so it makes for good tv. Edited March 21, 2009 by Soxbadger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felix Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 I picked Wisconsin, so I'm pretty pleased with their win. Despite that, I still wasn't rooting for them Nice to see my bracket be right about something for once though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxbrian Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 What a play by Scheyer to loft it down court behind his back in the remaining seconds. I love the way they're playing but history and my opinion says that Villanova is going to kick our ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FSU has a young team and they will be back. I didn't really mean it that way, but he really does suck at coaching. Florida State has had talent for years and this is the first time they've come close to living up to it. Granted, they have a ton more talent than previous years, but I have 0 respect for Hamilton as a game coach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxfan101 Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 (edited) I could never root for Wisconsin due to their style. I understand that a lot of Big 10 teams play this abominable style of running shot clock and not scoring points, but they take it to an extreme. I felt dirty rooting for Illinois at times this year even with as much as I've always liked them because of how slow and ugly they played to be honest, it's just terrible to watch and now how the game is meant to be played in my opinion.

At least when they had Harris or Tucker they had studs that were fun to watch. This team is horrifying to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFan1 Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 I have Pitt winning, but after 2 straight mediocre to bad performances, I'm not too confident about them over Xavier. Though Xavier doesn't rock my socks either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 I absolutely love the fact that the refs are calling every little ticky tack foul on Duke. Beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan4life_2007 Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Predicting what Duke is going to do in the tourney is becoming too easy of late. Did anybody outside of a Duke fan expect anything less than what we saw tonight? They get exposed every year by physical/athletic teams.
