The attendance, or lack thereof, is also factoring into the overall lack of interest in these games, at least for me. Although, this is what happens when you have football schools battling it out on the hardwood, and tonight's first slate of games featured three of them.

Same here. Texas A&M is just a fucking boring basketball team (SFA would have been so much more fun in this round) and Miami is just not all that alluring. I like Jim Larranaga a lot, but I have zero interest in seeing the Miami Hurricanes in a Final Four.

I lol'd at Barkley but he did say Miami won't win the game because their guards are midgets.

Nova has been really impressive in the tournament so far. I wasn't sure what to expect from them going in, but they look like a legit contender. So many guys that can really shoot it. Obviously, Miami isn't that great, but this is a complete beat down.

Haha, yeah, that's what I meant. Sobriety is not a battle I am winning tonight.

This the worst set of Sweet 16 teams I can remember in a long time. Nova and Oklahoma will be fun to watch moving forward, but the other two, my god, just horrific to watch.

Probably not.

My expectations are pretty simple. A Duke loss.

This Duke team just doesn't handle any type of pressure well, and Oregon has the speed in the backcourt to deliver the Blue Devils a healthy dose of it. Yale looked like '96 Kentucky when it started to pressure Duke in the second half. What do you think Oregon will look like?

I'm gonna get lit later.

Those games almost ruined this entire tournament for me. Almost. Texas A&M had no business being there at all. And if it hand't been for a fluke ending, they wouldn't have been.

Hoping for a good end to the night.

Lol double dribble.

Horrible, horrible T. If he lets go, he literally might have died.

Dude, not only did you swing around on the rim like an Olympic gymnast, you also double dribbled the ball. Stop looking flummoxed.

That is a total exaggeration. Lol.
