Louisville is making Tennessee look like OU. 17-8 10 minutes in. Bruce Pearl is not happy

EDIT - Make it 24-8. UL looks like world-beaters lately.

UL I'd also getting away with some very physical play. Questionable no calls going against the Vols. Watch for them to rally.

this is some entertaining bball. just get the hell down the floor.

Looks like Tennessee is starting to make a run.... well sort of

Why did I ever pick Tenn.? I have never seen a team get behind the defense as much as Louisville. The Volunteers need to put a free safety back there.

davidson up 9 over wisky with 10 left in 2nd half.

bri
3/28/2008, 07:59 PM
Davidson is PWNING Wisky. They've already f*cked up my brackets, so they might as well go crazy with it. :D

go whorns ;)

I dunno about you guys, but that Robin Lopez has been nothing but a thug and a jerk against Marquette and seems to be going for a repeat versus Texas. If there's any team out there to despise more than the whorns, it is Stahnferd. I am kind of irritated that Texas is beating them but-not-beating-them-soundly right now, because the more Stanford sucks, the more technicals their coach gets and the more irate that Robin gets.

bri
3/28/2008, 08:04 PM
Yeah, I hate Stanford pretty hard. Plus, I've got Texas playing in the championship game, so it goes without saying who I'm rooting for in that one.

bri
3/28/2008, 08:12 PM
Guh, Davidson is in full on "hell, let's just run 35 seconds off the clock and not even worry about getting a shot off" mode.

bri
3/28/2008, 08:20 PM
Heh, Gus Johnson kept wanting to say "Davidson advances to the Final Four!" so he kept saying "final eight" instead of "elite eight".

It's really nice to know that we've played (probably) half of the teams in the Elite 8 this season. Kinda sad to know that 3 of those teams showed that they were head and shoulders better than us.

Collier11
3/28/2008, 10:35 PM
My Elite 8 is not too bad I guess, I still have Kansas, Texas, Memphis, Ucla, and NC...I have 3 of 4 of my final 4 teams alive, for some reason I picked Tenn to beat NC

birddog
3/29/2008, 08:20 AM
geez, memphis was up 50-20 over msu at the half? good thing i slept one off.

some good ones today. x v. ucla and unc. v. the ville.

We'll be head and shoulders better next season with returning starters and incoming freshmen stars.

OSU, however, will continue to be dandruff :D

3/29/2008, 11:17 AM
Ehhh, I'd be more worried about texass right now than the pokies.

bri
3/29/2008, 03:28 PM
Yeah, but we can actually beat aggy on a consistent basis.

bri
3/29/2008, 07:35 PM
Xavier is doing a good job of getting dominated. Can we start the Louisville/North Cackalaky game early, plzkthx?

Newbomb Turk

I hope that game is as good as I think it might be.

bri
3/29/2008, 07:46 PM
After this snoozer, I hope that:

a) it's good
and
b) North Carolina wins.

:D

Newbomb Turk
3/29/2008, 07:50 PM
these sweet 16 / elite 8 games have been surprisingly not good.

time for that to change.

birddog
3/29/2008, 07:54 PM
i'm hoping this is the game of the tournament tonight. well, atleast until the final four games.

what was the ucla final?

SleestakSooner
3/29/2008, 08:00 PM
they won by about 20

bri
3/29/2008, 08:00 PM
76-57, baby blue bears.

Newbomb Turk
3/29/2008, 08:11 PM
track meet.

bri
3/29/2008, 08:25 PM
And UNC is showing how you handle a press when you have guards who don't freak out when you trap 'em. :D

Newbomb Turk
3/29/2008, 08:26 PM
or have guards who are really good.

bri
3/29/2008, 08:28 PM
Well, that's an important part of being really good. ;)

Newbomb Turk
3/29/2008, 08:29 PM
true.

Newbomb Turk
3/29/2008, 08:53 PM
and the un-close games continue.

bri
3/29/2008, 08:57 PM
Heh, the last minute of that half was some of the most wacky-go-jacky, no-defense-playing action I've seen since the days of YMCA lunchtime hoop, when it's getting close to 1:00 and everyone's trying to finish the game in time to get back to the office. :D

Newbomb Turk
3/29/2008, 08:59 PM
yeah. the game has been somewhat entertaining but the heels just have too many horses for louaville. Nice game by Padgett so far. :rolleyes:

birddog
3/29/2008, 09:40 PM
welp, 2 point bulge now. unc 61 ville 59.

Soonerus
3/29/2008, 09:42 PM
I cannot decide if I want NC to lose or not....

birddog
3/29/2008, 09:46 PM

Soonerus
3/29/2008, 09:49 PM

i didn't realize how much of a beast padgett is. he's big time.

Soonerus
3/29/2008, 09:52 PM
i didn't realize how much of a beast padgett is. he's big time.

I agree...

Newbomb Turk
3/29/2008, 09:53 PM
I'm so glad this is a decent game.

Soonerus
3/29/2008, 09:54 PM
Two GREAT teams...

birddog
3/29/2008, 09:55 PM
damn. 71-64. plenty o time left.

Newbomb Turk
3/29/2008, 09:56 PM
Louisville has gotten sloppy. they just can't get over the hump.

Soonerus
3/29/2008, 09:58 PM
It is as intense a game as I have seen in awhile...

birddog
3/29/2008, 09:59 PM
tomorrow should be great too. texas-memphis, davidson-ku.

birddog
3/29/2008, 10:00 PM
stupid turnovers killing ville. still have a chance because unc doesn't know how to put on the brakes.

Newbomb Turk
3/29/2008, 10:00 PM

texas memphis should be good.

I'm curious just to see how davidson hangs with KU.

birddog
3/29/2008, 10:00 PM
any of you ever been to louisville?

Soonerus
3/29/2008, 10:00 PM
Maybe Louisville is finally hitting a fatigue point...they are getting sloppy...

birddog
3/29/2008, 10:03 PM
geez, more turnovers.

Newbomb Turk
3/29/2008, 10:05 PM
Hansbrough has been incredible. Even though I can't stand him.

Soonerus
3/29/2008, 10:05 PM
Hansbrough unbelievable !!!

birddog
3/29/2008, 10:07 PM
ok. ucla-unc and texas-kansas.

unc-ku final. unc wins.

Newbomb Turk
3/29/2008, 10:08 PM
unc-ku final. unc wins.

can't happen.

birddog
3/29/2008, 10:08 PM
well, what is it then?

Soonerus
3/29/2008, 10:08 PM
ok. ucla-unc and texas-kansas.

unc-ku final. unc wins.

I do not think it is Texas - Kansas...

Soonerus
3/29/2008, 10:09 PM
UNC vs. KU and TX vs. UCLA

Newbomb Turk
3/29/2008, 10:10 PM
ok. ucla-unc and texas-kansas.

unc-ku final. unc wins.

if it's those 4 teams.

KU would play UNC.
Texas would play UCLA.

birddog
3/29/2008, 10:11 PM
gotcha.

birddog
3/29/2008, 10:11 PM
i threw away my bracket a long time ago.

birddog
3/29/2008, 10:12 PM
good game. i have alot of respect for both teams. that was good viewin'.

Newbomb Turk
3/29/2008, 10:13 PM
Carolina looks pretty darn salty. They'll be tough to beat.

Soonerus
3/29/2008, 10:13 PM
good game. i have alot of respect for both teams. that was good viewin'.

Great game...many years either of those teams would have won it all...

Soonerus
3/29/2008, 10:14 PM
Carolina looks pretty darn salty. They'll be tough to beat.

I think Kansas takes them down...

Newbomb Turk
3/29/2008, 10:15 PM
I think Kansas takes them down...

I don't see it, but they'll have a chance. If they beat Davidson. ;)

Soonerus
3/29/2008, 10:19 PM
It does not seem possible but I bet North Carolina loses...

bri
3/29/2008, 10:22 PM
Yay me, I'm 2-2 so far on Final Four picks. Now I just need the Big 12 to represent tomorrow and I'm **** of the walk!

Me too, with all of the bracket busts I need Texas and Kansas...

bri
3/29/2008, 10:40 PM
I'd probably be done for had I not correctly picked Villanova's run to the Sweet 16. Thanks to them, I'm leading my bracket group with my hometown friends, and staying in the Top 20 of the SF pools.

Soonerus
3/29/2008, 10:46 PM
By total luck I am in 1st in two pools...I don't know how...
