Sweet Sixteen Open Thread

Apparently, this is the round where Miami takes a giant dump at midcourt. Sheesh.

    If both teams play like they have tonight…Scary Wheat wins. They have been relentless tonight. Ohio State was pretty meh.

    Doras with a run out of nowhere…

  3. Wufpacker 03/28/2013 at 11:57 PM #

    What was Doras’ biggest deficit? 22? Will be interesting if they can close in a bit more.

  4. BJD95 03/28/2013 at 11:58 PM #

    Yeah, 22. Indiana has had its spirit broken completely.

    Zeller was just horrid tonight.

    Ohio State has looked pretty mediocre, but they are winning, and you know they will get it together sooner or later for a full 40 minutes.

    Well, my bracket is officially shot (it was already in pretty bad shape). I’m in a group with some friends and we always have our kids make brackets, too. One of the 5 year olds had FGCU, Wichita St., and Lasalle in his Sweet Sixteen, with Wichita St. beating Lasalle. Look out, Joe Lunardi.

    Two number 1’s out. Does Kansas survive tomorrow?

  9. BJD95 03/29/2013 at 12:12 AM #

    True. The Bucks are also playing with great confidence. If Scary Wheat has a 2 point lead with 3 minutes to play…can they close the deal on Ohio State?

    Should be great fun for the nonpartisan viewer.

    All I really want now is for the Credit Union to beat the Gators. No, scratch that – for a Scary Wheat/Credit Union final.

    the heck, Miami fizzles out in the sweet sixteen? it this because stay-puff was sitting out?

  11. Wufpacker 03/29/2013 at 12:17 AM #

    ^ That would rock.

  12. TLeo 03/29/2013 at 8:06 AM #

    Glad to see Miami crap out. I can’t stand them and never will.

    Miami wasn’t the same team after the loss in Durham.

    They richly deserved last night. Like I said, it wasn’t going to be a very good March for the ACC.

  14. Wulfpack 03/29/2013 at 11:16 AM #

    Go Shockers. Buckeyes are going to be a very tough out for anyone. As will Cuse. ACC not up to par. Next year will be different with the new additions. Stevens to UCLA?

    Stevens staying at Butler

    eas I could have told you that one : )

    So are these public rejections as humiliating as they were perceived to be for nc state?

  17. Texpack 03/29/2013 at 8:04 PM #

    Rock Chalk Jayhawk! When you write tuition checks to tOSU you can’t pull for Meeeechigan.

    Does anybody want the UCLA job?

    “Does anybody want the UCLA job?”

    Let me think about it. I’ve got a guy on the other line about a set of white walls.

  19. BJD95 03/29/2013 at 9:15 PM #

    The 1s look pretty solid tonight. Though the quack attack has definitely shown some resilience and heart.

    This is all just a prelude to our beloved Credit Union.

  20. MrPlywood 03/29/2013 at 9:22 PM #

    Oregon has played tough, I give them credit.

  21. redcanine 03/29/2013 at 9:23 PM #

    I wanna see the Gators get pickle rolled.

  22. redcanine 03/29/2013 at 9:28 PM #

    Michigan hasn’t made anything from 3. They’ve had plenty of good looks, just keep bricking.

  23. Wulfpack 03/29/2013 at 9:33 PM #

    Louisville/Ohio State would make one fabulous National Semifinal. In fact, those are the two best IMHO.

    UCLA is in the process of moving on to tier two, which puts Gottfried in play. I can’t imagine, though, they’d pay 3.5 big ones to buy him out.

  24. Wulfpack 03/29/2013 at 9:36 PM #

    And as much as I can’t stand Kansas and how good they’ve been my entire life, I feel like Self earns every win they get. He is as hard on his players as any coach out there. I really like the guy, and he can flat out coach.

  25. BJD95 03/29/2013 at 9:38 PM #

    Kansas vs. The Credit Union would be all sorts of awesome.

    I think whoever wins the Duke/Sparty game is in deep doo doo on Sunday.
