Defense, imo, hasnt been the issue. 14 fucking turnovers has. Thats a games worth in 1 half. amazing they are only down 12 really.

I am in charge of the 29 brackets in my school NCAA pool.....I went ahead Sharpie marked Kansas as a winner in all 29.

Hope I don't have to go back and correct each and every one of those.

But IU people have been hinting we are the 2:30pm game, so OSU would be the 12:10pm game.
That sucks. Wish they were the late game.

Ill gladly switch. 2:30 is literally the ONLY time I wont be able to watch IU. I will get to the airport at noon to watch OSU and then my plane leaves at 2:30 and arrives at 5:05 in Orlando. We play early I can watch before take-off and later I can watch when we land. Fuck.

Of course, if Temple wins...thank God I will be flying lol

The ultimate jinx. We'll see just how strong your supernatural forces are in the second half.

Every league has some looking terrible and others looking great. The only exception is the A-10, thus far.

I cannot agree when a conference is going to be 6-1 if they Minny beats UCLA.

However, the Big East is getting straight punk'd so far.

Gophers up 35-25 at half. UCLA looks like utter shit, they'll probably drill about 10 3's in the 2nd half with the way the Gophers luck goes.

I guess the B1G is the exception, but I really didn't judge them because they have high expectations to begin with. If Minny wins this, which is looks like they should (UCLA blows), I'd agree.

UNC should've been a #6 and UCLA with Adams going down should've been an 8.

Notre Dame should be added to that list of "biggest tournament underachievers". This will be a 4th straight year losing to a double digit seed, although in their defense its been a 10 or 11 seed every year, so Brey isn't quite at JTIII level.

Thats true. But I have been impressed with HOW they have played. Avg. victory for the 5 so far is like 17 points. So they have looked dominant in their games. Minny being the 11 seed and leading by double digits versus a major team. Thats impressive.

"I knew the Big East was going to be breaking apart, I just didn't know it was going to be this early."

Shabazz 0 for 7 thus far. Has the stock of a top 3 player hit the skids in recent years like his?

More like unathletic and slow. Brey is a terrible tournament coach and a not so great coach at all actually.

Oklahoma and SDSU are both very unimpressive. Wouldn't be surprised at all to see Gulf Coast win another game.

Disturbing article about Shabazz Muhammad as well. Apparently, it has been revealed his dad lied about his age in-order to prop up his status as a prep player, going against younger kids. Who knows how much he himself had to do with it, but still.

Lol....fuck that long ass story. ND actually scored 10 points in the time I read it and only lost by 70.
