MidwayJ ode We frequently talk about how Arizona and Syracuse either flame out early or go really deep. AZ did it again.
ode MidwayJ yep, I did not see Az all year so was not sure what to expect...every year a good or great team runs into a buzz saw mid major like Buffalo....those teams have an advantage as they are an unknown....it's what make the tournament great!
rsvman Wow. Wish I could've been at your place for the food and snacks! I'm also watching insane amounts of basketball now. My wife hates March.
mikeintopeka I told my wife with about 14 minutes to go we might be watching history. She replied "oh they'll come back" and my retort was "that's what the fans said before the first #2 seed went down to a #15 too".
ZWExton mikeintopeka That's single elimination for you. If they played 20 more times Virginia could go 20-0, but they didn't win tonight.
johnnydoom Heck of a game between Gonzaga and Ohio State. Definitely a game worthy of the 4 and 5 matchup.
johnnydoom It sucks to be a 2 seed today! (Oops - thought MSU was a 2 seed also, but actually they were a 3). Maybe it’s not so bad then. Perdue held on and it looks good for Cincy so far. I certainly wasn’t expecting A&M to take down the Tarheels that convincingly.
johnnydoom Never mind what I said about Cincinnati! Now down by 2 as Nevada takes their first lead with 9 seconds to go and wins it coming back from 22 down!
ode LBlack14 That was brutal.... A total collapse, I actually turned off the Xavier game and looked on line before I went to bed and was surprised to see Xavier lost. Cincinnati though was awful how they folded.....like they forgot how.to play basketball and we're playing one on one.....one bad possession after another. Not impressed with Cronin. Xavier the foul trouble stoppped them from putting the game out of reach.
rsvman It was a crazy first week/weekend, to be sure. Craziest ever. South bracket is busted beyond all recognition.
