S John Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Don't really consider a 10 over a 7 to be much of an upset and actually 3/4 of the 10 seeds have won over the 7's this year. So... would that make K-State the only real upset of the tournament so far? I stupidly had them in the elite-8. I knew deep down in my subconscious that Dean Wade was out but somehow failed to take that into consideration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMC Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 I enjoyed watching Colgate try so very hard against impossible odds. Also, @Fez, I did not know you were a UB alumnus. That's really cool. My brother went to UB for, like, two weeks, and growing up in Rochester I frequented Buffalo growing up. Anyway, I don't really pay attention until the tourney starts, but UB looks pretty damn good.

Two of their key guys, Wooten and King, missed big chunks of the season. So once Bol went down but those guys came back it took a while to get it together. 9th straight win right now. And now they get Irvine and could easily make the 16. I really wish Bol hadn't gotten hurt. He was a lot of fun to watch while he was in there and would've made this team that much more compelling. Also I think part of this is that Altman is a hell of a coach whose teams have consistently performed well in the Tournament. A lot to be said for that.

Yep. Of course that was back before UB athletics mattered at all (other than wrestling and soccer); though up until we finally won a tournament game last year, I was still bitter about the quasi-snub in '05. We should've gotten an at-large bid that year. It was the first and only year we were ever good until Bobby Hurley showed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been wanting a Drew in Lawrence for a while. So if Self does leave, he’s covered!!!! Your favorite UK alum is getting spanked by V-Tech. Lots of bad games tonight, at least ISU-OSU is competitive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhom Posted March 23, 2019 Author Share Posted March 23, 2019 Solid defense. Weak offense for the Cats. I think we can beat OSU/UH without PJ; but no shot at the Final Four if he can’t go. Murray State is not having as much luck against FSU. I’ve watched the Seminoles a handful of times this year and they have never shot this well.

Ferrum Aeternum Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 FSU was too good defensively. They took away all of Morant’s passing lanes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
