Duke looks likely to advance but injury didn’t look good.

OT at MSG
Big time three pointers by Scoop Jardine put Syracuse into overtime with UConn.
Say what you want about the Big East, their conference tournament rarely disappoints.
--AW--
Go UConn
Opponent of Texas, obviously, but I’m also hearing some buzz for Cuse as a 2-seed. Screw that.
And I’m expecting another Big East flop in the tournament. Like the SEC in football, it’s just a huge hype machine.
You ain't hurt...
Reid Gettys
Said he expected an historic Big East flameout in the first rd of the NCAA tournament.
Don’t see it. I’m a buyer of Pitt and ND and Syracuse. A buyer of G’town with Wright. And UConn is scary too.
--AW--
We'll see
They’re perpetually overrated, though. They don’t look so hot in the non-con, then beat ever-living crap out of each other during the conference season and everyone starts yelling, “OMG it’s so deep! They’re ALL great!”
Instead of concluding, “Hey, maybe none of them is great.”
You ain't hurt...
I hear ya
However, UConn is the 9 seed. The 9 seed.
In any other conference they are no worse than 2 or 3.
Five wins in five nights would be freaking crazy.
--AW--
True dat
They’re a little like us with Hamilton. When Kemba’s playing well, they can beat anyone.
When he’s not… they’re not a particularly good basketball team.
You ain't hurt...
I've always liked whiney Boeheim and SU
but losing six of eight in jan/feb has to disqualify you from a 2. And yes, the Big East is largely hype.
channel?
anybody know of anything on directv in oklahoma? in tulsa, the big xii network affiliate has booted the games to a local cable sub-channel. sour grapes, i suspect. otherwise, i’m relegated to watching the worldwide leader 3.
UCONN still undefeated in Tournament Play this year
what is that 7-0?
with wins over Mich St, Kentucky, Pitt, Syracuse, Gtown
But look at those WINS...
I like UConn ahead of UNC, Duke, Florida maybe even Purdue or Wisconsin
Late season matters
but you don’t throw out the rest of the season. They finished ninth in their conference.
They won’t be ahead of Duke or Carolina or Purdue. Maybe on the same line as Wisconsin and Florida.
--AW--
I agree with you but the Committee loves to overrate tourneys especially Big East...
Remember when Syracuse went from the bubble to a 5 seed
Manser the Big 12 commentator
is one of the worst dressers on tv. Too many stripes my friend.

I'm sorry
But Bob Knight is really refreshing. Yes, in 40 minutes of game play he sometimes wanders into topics he doesn’t know enough about (e.g. Michigan State’s bid chances), but he talks about THE GAME ON THE COURT. If we were with another crew, we’d have suffered through half the commentary discussing the Big East Tournament, the national player of the year, and all sorts of stuff that’s tangentially relevant because it’s college basketball-related but has nothing, directly, to do with the game.
You ain't hurt...

Really impressed with Texas this half
After a poor first four minutes we’ve just asserted ourselves in a game in which the style has made it really hard to do so.

Refs yet y'all play down low
huge advantage for you. we have no one who can match up with Thompson. Tonight is what happens when we play a team with a legit 5. I said y’all -6.5 was a safe bet
U did tackle him with Middleton that wasnt called
Bitch all u want u shot way more FTs
by HornsUpInLA on Mar 11, 2011 10:46 PM CST up reply actions
I'm not bitching about the refs
I was responding to the guy who was bitching about the refs
On that play Thompson hooked Middleton first. If you want to complain, then that was a foul too.
Like I said, we just do not match up. I did enjoy our lineup with Holmes, Davis, Walkup, Hibbert, and Dash on the court at the same time. That means you have one guy who is a legit threat to score. Have no idea what Turge was thinking there.
Ok, I'll ask...
With all the upsets, do we have a shot at all for a #1 seed if we win tomorrow?
We're going to play like we're in a bad mood.
No

HAHAH
Stupid NU fan in the stands trying to get his anti UT sign on TV during the Thompson interview
Refs in KC will give KU an extra 10 points
you have to feel good though b/c all your shooters started hitting tonight and you hit FTs
Hamilton and Brown are hitting from the outside
you should be fine.
Biggest thing IMO is that y’all keep going down low to Thompson. Only a couple teams in the nation can match up with him.
All gonna depend on the first round matchup for us. If we get someone without skilled big men we will be fine. We get a team with a good low post game and we are screwed.
I'm feeling pretty good right now with Hamilton and Brown picking it up at the right time.
Good luck to the y’all in the tourney, Mike. (I’ve got to root for Aggy when we’re not playing them – my dad’s an ardent farmer)

I am not sure why folks have KU as the 1 seed in the SW region. Seems to me they would much rather be in the SE and play in Chicago/NO – an hour and a half direct flight versus about six hours with a connection.
That would give us the 1 seed in the SW playing in Tulsa/SA.
Or give ND the 1 seed in the SW and us the 2 seed. Seems to be fair if you’re going to give Texas the 2 seed instead of a 1.
