kairparavel Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 I really like this Florida Gulf Coast team. I hope they go far. And the Ducks are impressive. Go Ducks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferrum Aeternum Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 I really like this Florida Gulf Coast team. I hope they go far.Yup, they're insanely aggressive.

Rhom Posted March 25, 2013 Author Share Posted March 25, 2013 The Bilas sound bite played over and over on ESPN radio on my drive back today was a general complaint about UCLA firing Howland. His comment was that Howland has three Final Fours and the rest of the Pac12 coaches combined have one.Been trying to figure it out and all I can come up with would be Montgomery when he was at Stanford. Is that correct? Was he there back in 98? :dunno: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedEyedGhost Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 FGCU is really quick. It would be awesome if they can keep playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switchback Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Whew, things got a little shaky there in the second half, but we were able to fend them off. Nice bounce back from Rosario, who got benched for much of the second half in the first game for missing a block out. He was on fire all game tonight. The beginning of the second half gave me angry flashbacks to several of our losses this year though, and Murphy picking up his 4th foul with 12 minutes left worried me. I think we were lucky that Andre Hollins picked up his 4th soon after. Go Gators. Sweet 16 now 3 years in a row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferrum Aeternum Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Buzzfeed's Marshall sequence is worth your time.Ha! That's great. :lol: Marshall is hitting early on, but LaSalle's quick little guards are giving us fits right now. Gotta tighten up the lazy passing and get it inside to the bigs more consistently.

Fez Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Football? Do they have football now or are you messing with me? Foosball is the devil Bobby Bouchet! :lol: We are Florida Gators for football. :DLet's just say there's a reason the student union sells t-shirts that say "george washington football: undefeated since 1972".Anyway, go FGCU! Lots of fun to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedEyedGhost Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 FGCU looks like they've got this one in the hand. They'll be the first 15 seed in the Sweet 16. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferrum Aeternum Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Incredibly sloppy first half - 9 turnovers (we average 11 per game), nonexistent perimeter defense, and yet we're only down by 2 at half.If we can play as solidly in the 2nd half as we have this entire tournament season, we'll be in good shape.

Jaime L Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 They made me miserable yesterday but have to say Florida Gulf Coast is a ton of fun to watch. Like any 15 seed, they don't have any size, but it doesn't matter because they're noticeably a lot more athletic than most Cinderellas I can think of. Is it weird to think they're like the baby LA Clippers? Great PG play throwing alleyoops all day to a bunch of leapers. I don't see any reason why they can't keep this going into the Elite 8.

Switchback Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 I don't like anything about the FGCU matchup. They'll be the crowd's favorite, they have nothing to lose, they're playing out of their minds right now, etc. Donovan with almost a week to prepare is what I'm hanging my hat on right now.

Baitac Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Wow! First time a fifteenth ranked team makes it to the Sweet Sixteen. That is awesome. Now, we better be prepared for this, most unexpected, match. I wish they weren't playing each other. What are the chances? This town is dying over this team. DYING. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferrum Aeternum Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Can't quite put this team away. Every time we go on a little run, they answer. Plus, naturally, we're 7-15 from the line (although only one was an airball, so there's that). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully it won't come back to bite you.It's mostly Holloway and Buckner, and teams will mercilessly hack them at the end of games due to that. Holloway could be a 20 and 10 guy if he could shoot 80%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
