Lol at CBS replaying the shot of Allen walking off the court without embracing in a big bearhug with an Oregon player in the immediate moments proceeding the end of his team's season. The controversy these clowns try to conjure up is unreal. Yes, he was a jackass for tripping people earlier this year. But that walk off the court was just a kid upset in defeat. I wouldn't embrace an opposing player that ran up to bear hug me after my team just lost in the tournament either.

Such stupidity by the CBS production team and Verne Lundquist for entertaining it.

Buzz Williams is an average coach, but I think he is really good on studio. Easily the best on that set.

Cream came to the top today....not sure about tomorrow...I feel the two best teams are playing each other and the winner will eventually face Kansas.

I hope Gonzaga wins but that in itself is a crusher.

Allen's a shit, I don't feel bad for him.

It's a little of both. If he wasn't such a dick he wouldn't keep getting attention for every time he remotely comes off as one, at the same time we all fucking get that he's an asshole so no need to point out every instance of a dick being a dick

Rec, I iind of agree on the end of game. However, Brooks didn't run up to him. He turned around and Allen was kind of there in his path. Instead of celebrating in front of him, it looked like he decided to get a post game congrats on a season kind of thing done. A handshake wasn't possible since they basically ran into each other. It was awkward, but I don't think Brooks meant anything by it, and I stand my assertion shoving a player is a dick move and not ok. Mahler of them mocking your bench at final whistle, just accept it. You lost, walk away in defeat. It sucks, but you know what? Everyone else seems to manage it, even the kids who lose on a last second shot.

I would never condone his behavior ever. Win and lose with class.

I don't like your last point about the last second shot because that's always a shock and everything is chaos in those situations.

lol, yep. The kiss of death for the Terps. I only wish I had Classy around when I was filling out my bracket. Pick the opposite of him and dominate my group!

Who is winning today?

UNC by 11
Notre Dame by 3

The other two games I have no feel for. My mind tells me UVA but my gut says Iowa St fucked you last year and will continue to do so this year. To me Gonzaga looks so much better than Syracuse but Cuse is that one team this year that shouldn't have made it but is on a run. I think Gonzaga can handle the zone.

I want Notre Dame to lose the most and Zaga to win the most. We'll see how that works out.

I have this dumb feeling that Syracuse is gonna win. But other than them I agree.

Also, think that ND wins by the biggest margin of the night.

I actually like the way ND matches up with Wisconsin. ND doesn't have to play a full court game to score. ND can play that slow down half court style that Wisconsin likes to play. Should be a good game though

Wait, I'm kinda saying that is the case, yet those kids keep their cool.

The losing team is just always shown face down in the laps or kneeling down face to floor in disbelief. Dribbling out the clock is everything still and anything can be seen.

Regardless...he's an ass by most all means.

On another note I watched the 90 min special "I hate Christian Laettner"....good stuff

Virginia on pace to score in the 80s. You aren't beating Virginia if they score like this. And Niang has 2 fouls..

Virginia had 29 points with 10:38 remaining, might have been longer but that's when I remembered looking at the clock. Have 10 points in last 8 minutes. Their scoring is slowing down big time.
