Ags win by 16

Without going to the free throw line much. Really more than I expected. If we can keep Middleton hot from outside, we can really do some damage. Sloan just kept the offense flowing. Refs let everyone play so no one shot FTs.

Games not too interesting

Michigan State rolling, Duke rolling, and Gonzaga rolling. Only Ga Tech/Ok State game is even close.

Whatchu think?

Go Big XII? Not that simple for me, but I’m rooting OSU on this one. Was hoping other Aggies would pull it off.

Both teams are very average

Neither team capable of beating Ohio State in next round, in my opinion.

Programming note

From the lack of comments on this thread, it looks like everyone’s given up watching, but I just discovered that CBS College Sports seems to be giving some lengthy live look-ins on games in progress, which might give you an extra game to watch, depending on what game is being shown on your local CBS affiliate.

Not sure if anyone has posted this already.

Two good ones

Michigan State has blown a huge lead and is now in a fight.

Ga Tech and Ok State coming down to final minute.

Lost Teams

Big East: Georgetown, Notre Dame, Marquette of 8
Big 12: Texas, Ok State of 7
SEC: Florida, Vanderbilt of 5
ACC: Clemson, Florida State of 6
Big 10: Illinois, Minnesota of 5
Mtn West: UNLV, San Diego State of 4

Is that look right?

Wild.

Illinois in NIT. Or maybe I don’t follow.

Crap

Not sure why I typed that.

So, Big 10 is 2-1. Wisconsin and Purdue winners. Minnesota lost. Mich State about to win. Ohio St up next.

Whoops

Lane violation on missed FT. That should do it.

by Infield Elephant on Mar 19, 2010 9:01 PM CDT up reply actions  

Weak

Mich State escapes. This is not the same Spartan team we are used to seeing in March.

And we got lucky with an injury depleted Pitt

Stumpy: It's called the '80s. Ford was president, Nixon was in the White House, and FDR was running this country into the ground.

Walk off 3 Run HR by Cameron Rupp

send UT over Nebraska, 6-5. This helps ease the pain.

Good win for Aggies and MSU just got lucky

Over/under . . .

. . . on the number of Houston fans (relatives not counting) who traveled to Spokane. 10?

I’ll take the under.

Go Tom Penders

Penders gets a lot of @$!%# on this site. But I was a freshman during Bob W.’s last year as a coach and Texas basketball was nothing before Tommy Penders. And every time I met him, he treated my friends and I like kings. In fact, when we would go to away games – especially the tournament, Tom and Jamie Campaglio made sure we were treated to free breakfast and great seats. So you guys may think Barnes took us to “another level” but Penders took us out of the grave and into the spotlight. And he never sits on the bench sucking on a water bottle while frittering away an eight point lead in overtime. He coaches. I would take him back in a second. At least his style of play is fun to watch.

No one that I have seen has been

critical of the job he did. He gets a lot of !@#$% because of the off-the-court stuff that transpired during his final year that eventually led to his rightful dismissal.

by the way

that crap with Axtell wasn’t even the tip of the iceberg. don’t be so innocent. there’s not a clean program in the country.
