Palehosefan Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Well we found the toughest bracket already. I bet Duke gets a cakewalk as usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoomSlowik Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Seriously, how does the #1 overall seed get THAT bracket? Several teams I'd want to avoid in UNC, Syracuse and Kentucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Several teams I'd want to avoid in UNC, Syracuse and Kentucky. It kind of sucks for Ohio State. The winner of Geroge Mason/Villanova could even give them problems.

Rowand44 Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 Region is definitely loaded. This and the West had all the teams I thought about having in the final four pre bracket release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan101 Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 (edited) Best region in my opinion. Took Kentucky to win it, but North Carolina is another team I really like and could see winning the region and Ohio State is obviously the #1 overall seed and starting in Cleveland so they're right there. Washington/Georgia should be a really fun opening round game. Edited March 14, 2011 by whitesoxfan101 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamshack Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Clemson collapses as usual. It seems as though every year Clemson has a plethora of talent on their football and basketball teams, and often has the better team on the field or court, but always finds a way to lose.

Like clockwork. I was amazed they made it into the tournament period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kentucky should still win by double digits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palehosefan Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Refs missed a nice Patrick Ewing type travel on the last play for Kentucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 I picked Princeton in that game thinking that if they could hold Kentucky under 60, they would win. Damn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dasox24 Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 No matter how much it would have messed up my bracket, I was pulling so hard for Princeton. I love seeing Kentucky (especially Calipari) lose. Kentucky nation would have been in meltdown mode if that happened. Would have been awesome.

Nova gifted the comeback by missing the front end of 1 and 1s, but I was waiting for a serious Gus explosion if Nova sent it to OT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox_Sonix Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Mar 20, 2011 -> 02:30 PM) And at the end of the game. Washington should have had over a second instead of half a second to tie the game. Washington definitely blew it down the stretch and that half court heave was ridiculous. However, it was inexcuseable not to go to the replays to correct the time left. It was obvious live that there should have been more time left. It probably wouldn't have mattered but you gotta make sure at that point. And that was absolutely goaltending as well. It was only a 2 but what was that kid thinking?

Exactly, but the extra half second could've gotten Washington's shooter behind the 3 point line for a chance, or a chance to be goal tended. Yeah not sure what that kid was thinking. Wasn't he the same one that touched the ball out of bounds on Washingtons half court heave? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
