No matter what, I'm glad we are matched up Creighton and the Hall is with Ku. They were #29 and #30 overall, 8 seeds. CU is a more favorable matchup for us. The Pirates would have given us problems IMO.
The Hall has 4 seniors. Top 4 scorers back from last years 10 seeded team. Small forward and 2 guards that can create and score (Desi, Carrington, Powell) and a 6'9 240 brute, Delago.  They will give Ku everything they want.

I think the only way to split screen 2 game is with the March Madness Live app on Apple TV.

Nooooo joke. I guess it makes sense once the later rounds start to be played, should the Mountaineers play well and actually make it past Murray State. What round do the Regions actually start making sense?

I don't get why Dixon had Vlad inside the zone at the end of the game. They needed 3's and they had the ability to go 5 out 0 in but he was still trying to post the dude up when he's probably one of their best shooters.

Yeah, losing to Virginia would not be embarrassing or bad in the slightest, UMBC, well, I wouldn't call it embarrassing, they just beat the overall 1 seed, but I feel like everyone is on their side for this one.

Creighton has had a very good Offense the past 2 seasons. In 67 games over the last 2 years, they had never shot below 42% from  2pt.  In 67 games they had never been under 45% from 2pt and under 30% from 3pt. 

Game 68 --- 41.1% from 2 and 26.5% from 3.

So what I really liked about the game was how UMBC pushed the tempo as much as they could. Are we past the notion that underdogs can't play fast on offense? They also did a great job rebounding but I don't know if Bennett is I've of those slth-y never crash the boards guys.

Also on the jumbo Tron they said that short point guard was the America East defensive player of the year? That surprised me along with the fact that the uva guards didn't back him down more, they were pretty successful when they did.

This was pretty brilliant.  Wasting time after a Virginia made shot. Several seconds would go off between the made hoop and umbc touching the ball on the inbounds pass.

Absolutely. In the Big 12, a good conference finish should lead to a good seed which will lead to NCAA wins. oscar under performed his seed grossly once and the rest of the time he's basically played to his seed. 1 coin flip seed win, 1 coin flip seed loss, 1 poor seed loss. The key is to get a 6 seed or better (7-10, 8-9 are coin flip games IMO).

LOCAL KID CATCHES FISH IN NEIGHBORHOOD POND, DOES RIGHT THING AND THROWS IT BACK

Local 3rd grader chingnon was fishing in a pond behind his house. He knew the odds were stacked against him. It was kinda cold, all his friends decided to stay in and play super NES, but chingnon wasn't deterred. After an hour and a half without even a nibble, he started to lose hope. He set his pole on the bank and placed a rock on it to keep it in place while he went to take a pee. Just then, the bobber went under. Chingnon raced back to his pole just seconds before it got pulled into the pond and would have gotten him grounded for at least a week with no tv. His battle with the fish had to have lasted for "1, maybe 2 minutes" but he took a deep breath, remembered his training, and set the hook before reeling in the monster.
According to the youngster, it was "definitely the biggest bass I've ever caught" but then, his true heroism shined through. Instead of keeping his trophy, he removed the hook and tearfully released it back into the pond. "It was the right thing to do. I...I just had to".
Upon completion of 3rd grade, chingnon says he is excited to go to overnight camp for this first time this summer, and is confident he won't need to call his parents in the middle of the night because he's homesick.

msu shot 25% from the floor, had 26 oboards to 'cuse's 20 dboards.

Izzo got so out coached today, it wasn't funny.  Some dude who got 43 minutes in 18 conference games played 23 minutes today at the 4.  He was a glorified passer at the high post. He also wasn't a big part of these Offensive boards.  23 minutes 1-2 FG 0-1 FT. 2 ORs, 0 DRs.   Izzo also had his starting 5 on the bench for the last 10 minutes.  That guy was 4-5 on 2pt. Rest of the team was 5-24.   

Starting 4 man and nba lottery pick Jackson was pretty useless today, but Izzo just refused to play 3 shooters and Bridges at the 4.  Cuse plays a 6'8 guy at the 3 and their 4 is 6'9 195ish, so no matchup problems on D going smaller.

KState had 10 TOs our 1st 23 Possessions in 2nd half. Just 1 in our last 11.   We went on 12-6 run in those 11

Don't understand why Nevada decided to play D with 36.1 and fresh 30 on shot clock (down 1). They only had 4 fouls.

Even if Loyola makes a 2 with under 10 seconds, Nevada is down 3. Loyola could foul, and after the FTs, Nevada would have to foul 3 times to put Loyola at the line

Too risky IMO

Villanova has looked unstoppable the entire tournament. Maybe my favorite thing about them is that if their 10-0 run gets interrupted they look legitimately disappointed, like they shouldn’t have let that happen.

1 title in the 30 years of Roy/Self at Ku.

I mean sure Duke UNC and UK have 12 titles in that span. Come Monday night, a 6th team will have won multiple titles in those 30 years (Ku ain't one of them)

But hey, they are hands down the dominant team in the Regular season in this league.

Nova was 13-26 in 1st half on 3s. Shot 71.2 eFG
Nova was 14-18 in 2nd half on 2s. Shot 67.2 eFG

They were superb all night passing the ball, making shots and having constant movement.  Most Defenses would have a hard time slowing them last night. Ku isn't a good enough D to do it

Last night if it was Nova vs the field, you take Nova. 

That at KU alive almost as bad as they ate OU alive two years ago.

The only thing that hurts me is the realization that, despite my own TSC'ing, so many of my Kansan brethren have been exposed as small-minded, small-peened Napoleons (without the notable victories). Now I question whether I can trust the representations of even the most august among you. It's quite unsettling.

Let’s break it down logically.

First: T

You explicitly say which teams you root for, KU and TX, in that order.

Second: S

Applying the logic instantiated in the first part, you explicitly say which team, Kansas.

Third: C

Explicitly saying Tech, Baylor, and TCU are below KSU. This implies that all other teams not already explicitly stated previously are above the cats.

Verdict: KSU is 4th from last above Tech, Baylor, TCU in that order.

Hey Nova shot the ball really well from 3. Going 18-40 on the Final 4 stage is impressive for sure.

Nova has attempted 34+ shots from 3pt in 11 games.  They had one bad 8-36 3pt game.  The other 10 games they made 43% combined.  Team can shoot and if you don't make them uncomfortable, giving up uncontested 3's, it can be a big problem. 

I'd be flustered if I was a Ku fan watching those 3s go in. Also be pissed about the 13-15 on shots inside the paint in the 2nd half that Nova made.
