...and LOL at the Madison Square Garden shot clock. Goes from 30 to 15 after each possession.

I cannot stand when the offensive player pushes off a little bit and the defensive player goes flying backwards....even though the push wouldn't knock down a 6 year old.

You can push off but as soon as your arm extends outward, it's a foul. Gotta use your forearm and elbow.

This shot clock is complete bullshit. I'd be pissed if I was the teams. That's 3 unneeded whistles that have stopped play for at least a minute.

I don't disagree with the call of a foul at all. I despise the acting.

I think if SC was playing someone that hadn't seen them they could win....Florida making SC work hard for everything. Florida wins 63-51

The way Florida is shooting right now, they are going to be tough to beat.

Announcer wearing me out. You can play and not foul...just takes focus. SC has to have his offense. Florida isn't missing anything open. Impressive

9 guys left in the survivor pool at one guy suggests we all split, $800 per guy on a $20 entry...7 guys agree, 2 don't respond. A South Carolina win guarantees me a top 3 finish as only 3 guys picked them 5 picked Florida 1 Kentucky and I'll have Kentucky left he has neither Kentucky nor UNC

Yeah, you don't split at that point, especially in your spot. You have a 1/9 shot at winning $800 whereas you would only make $88 with a split? No thanks.

Gators already at 5 fouls less than 5 minutes into the 2nd half.

I read it as $800 per guy if they split it.

Well then fuck that X 1000 haha. The bigger the pot, the less I'm even considering it with those odds.

If we were talking at least $2400 if South Carolina won, I probably would have gone and put $1200 on Florida and rode out the survivor pool.

Otherwise, you're correct from an odds perspective....but on $20, I think I'd take a guaranteed $800.
