NCAA Tournament Thread

Auburn starters havent scored. This is not ideal.

man, just a back-and-forth war

Auburn goes up 7 with 1:30 left and then allows a wide open lane for a RH layup 5 seconds later...and foul of course

So dumb

Harper and Brown. Man. Didn’t score the first like 10 minutes and ended up with probably 50+. What a game from the starting backcourt.

If Nick Ward can play at a high level today, I really don’t see them losing.

Started out fine, then K took DeLaurier off him and Ward had no place in that game. 

But MSU was great all day, particularly defensively. What a fantastic weekend of basketball. I cannot remember a better Elite 8 than what we just got to watch.

Down go the Dukies

Yup. He was playing well. After the adjustment, he was stuck in mud. He might be able to be a factor against TT, but I wouldn’t change much if I was Izzo. 

What a weird FF. 3 teams who nobody on this forum has probably ever seen in the FF and then a “new” blueblood in MSU.

• Michigan State is a staple, but this team is the least talented for Izzo in awhile. Yet, they make it while his others get upset.
• Virginia has history, but never able to get there sans Sampson. Not a shock to see them, but definitely a new look.
• Texas Tech? Well, yeah. Lol. It’s Texas Tech. Crazy they are even relevant. Let alone actually made a run to the FF
• Auburn is wild as well. Not like Texas Tech, but random enough. But at least they have had some great players in their history. Still never expected them to crack through like this.

I have no clue who I will be rooting for. Probably Auburn, then MSU, then Tech then Virginia. 

Weird to see a FF with one team from each major conference (leaving pac12 out of this)...think it was 2012 where we had one from each of the four best conferences

Well, I was at an evening church singspiration. It was wonderful.

I do need to find new teams to root for that simply just win or lose. The Reds are my watch. Little stress from them lol

My wife did have TT, MSU and UVA in Final 4....had UK in other. If UVA beats Mich St she’ll win a few hundred 

Good for the teams left. MSU has been incredible and the lashing from dumbasses about Izzo yelling...haha to them

TT....what a run

UVA...I’m going to root for them but won’t be upset if anyone wins.

Auburn...probably should’ve lost rd 1 but have been dynamite since. I don’t like Bruce Pearl greatly tho

by the looks of this post, I'd say you had a little too much 'singspiration'

Sometimes that helps

Coach K once again outcoached himself.  The bench players like Goldwire, White, O'Connell, and hell even Vankovic could have easily played a few minutes last night instead of playing tired freshman that were obviously afraid of fouling.  Matter of fact, in the last 4-6 games, Duke made big runs with Goldwire on the floor.

For K to miss that coaching adjustment in regards to player rotation is ridiculous.

Sampson was not on the ’84  final 4 team.
