NCAA Tournament - non-Big East games discussion

What’s happened TO them? I’m sure you mean - what they’ve done.

Yeah, I don't like to use the C word because it's single-elimination, but Painter's got soul searching to do and decide if he wants to keep playing this style that seems vulnerable against quicker teams.

Merrimack won the NEC by beating FDU. Merrimack can't go to the tournament because of a stupid ncaa rule as they need to be a D1 school for 5 years. They are in year 3.

Well, Virginia was the other 1-seed to lose and they came back the next year and won it all. Just got to try harder. But you make excellent points about the vulnerabilities of Painter’s teams.

Pulling for our old MVC pals, Drake - coached by our former 20 year assistant, Darian Devries.

It drives me insane when coaches save their timeout until it's too late. Hopefully Drake can still win this despite this malpractice.

Drake totally pissed down their leg. Gave up a 16-1 run to end the game. Ouch.

It's going to be FAU vs FDU.. so similar to St. Peters vs. Murray State last year.

KU is on the ropes. Wow.

How often do we see kids trying to miss the FT but it goes in? I guess it's hard to hit the rim and miss intentionally.

I'm not even sure if Arkansas is a better matchup for UCONN if they can manage to win tomorrow.

Princeton about to make the sweet 16. That's like... what, 6 NCAAT wins for Jersey teams the past 2 years and not one of them from Seton Hall or Rutgers?

Kansas goes down to Arkansas


Meanwhile. Princeton working their way to a S16. WOW

Earlier... Duke went down. ACC down to Miami/Pitt.
