IU got every call in the world!!! So sick of the refs saving them. I can't stand how much the officiating consistently favors them...

Wattford's block changed that game. If he doesn't make that play I think Indiana loses.

B1G train rolls on. Might get 5 teams in the Final Four this year.

 

[IrishSteelhead]

Kansas=brick city so far. The basket has a lid on it.

I was sweating bullets at the end. They are going to have to shoot way better from three to beat the Syracuse zone.

Temple game galvanized that team IMO. They have faltered in a few close games this year, and that should be a huge boost to morale. Crean is getting better at in game adjustments too.

UNC shooting 26% from floor, 27% on treys but KU 25% from floor 0.0% on treys.

UNC 3 treys the difference.

Can't wait for the Indiana vs 'Cuse game. Going to be epic.

 

[STLDomer]

Most people don't think of St Louis as a basketball city but think about this:

Ben McLemore (Kansas), Brad Beal (Florida), Roosevelt Jones (Butler) and Cam Biedscheid (Notre Dame) all played on the same AAU team 2 years ago

 

[IrishLax]

I thought I was so smart picking UNC over Kansas. Then the second half happened.

That is how I felt during the Davidson/Marquette game.

Random question (and sorry if already discussed) but does anyone know why some of the Adidas teams (Indiana, Kansas) aren't wearing those awful uniforms, but other Adidas team are?

 

[STLDomer]

A little much here

Gingers do have souls

Kansas and Indiana are "blue blood" programs, and probably declined to wear alt unis. Kentucky, on the other hand, has worn quite a few crazy unis, not with Adidas though.

Florida Gulf Coast is so fun to watch

 

[STLDomer]

Florida Gulf Coast is so fun to watch

They are the anti-Notre Dame.

Seriously they have had more dunks I think in the last two games than we had all year.

 

[NDPhilly]

It's pathetic how much more athletic FGCU is than Notre Dame.

 

[STLDomer]

WHAT IS GOING ON?!?

 

[Ironman8]

Florida Gulf Coast is so fun to watch

They are going to get HYPED TO DEATH this week. Hopefully they can keep this loose, playground mentality vs. Florida.

They are a breathe of fresh air in this Big 10 tourney.

Kansas had a contractual obligation to wear the unis for at least one game. They wore them for one game during the Big 12 tournament. Bill Self was pretty outwardly negative about them. So, there it is.

Withey is a man. And we weren't going to miss every three for the entire tournament.

 

[STLDomer]

Team that hates (or loves depending on perspective) FGCU the most (besides GTown and SDSU):

La Salle

They are a half away from First Four to Sweet 16. No media coverage whatsoever since FGCU has been playing roughly the same time

Oh and Florida's path to the Elite 8: 14 seed, 11 seed, 15 seed. Lucky bastards

Met Varidel on Friday. Came up after there game and sat a row in front of us. Really cool guy.

This!!

Thanks. Agree with Self. The tourney unis are awful, especially on ND and Kansas.

I hope Self matter of factly said he was more interested in winning a national championship than playing dress up. How did IU get out of it? I don't remember seeing them wear anything different.

FGCU will likely beat Florida. IMO that is.

 

[Irish YJ]

Whoever is taking Miami far has to be sweating right now. Almost put some V-bucks on IL. Damn it. At least I had balz enough to throw a little bit on FGCU. My first week of betting. Having too much fun.

 

[STLDomer]

Look at the manager hahahahahaha
