You want upsets opposed to drama. Each of the three Michigan games had drama. Vanderbilt/Northwestern had drama. Gonzaga/WVU had drama with poor execution Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DS729 Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 What a :censored:ing game... Florida getting the early tip on Sunday seems like a huge disadvantage, they just played an exhausting OT game and then they'll have to play again with about 36 hours of rest, compare that to South Carolina getting a pretty snug win and hours of additional rest... it might not matter but I wouldn't be surprised at all if Florida has tired legs in the second half.

OnWis97 Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 The NCAA Tournament is the best sporting event of the year. But I said that more emphatically when my school was going to NITs.

Unocal Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Saturday is the biggest game in Gonzaga history.... unless they play beyond tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unocal Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Little dissapointated in UCLA/Kentucky. Once AGAIN, it's Calipari and his joyless one-and-done factory winning. I mean, UCLA had a lot of guys who had been around for multiple years- yet it's the other guys who move on. So much for Kentucky lacking a big guy this year.

I firmly believe Mark Few (finally) takes the Indiana job if Gonzaga tanks vs Xavier -- assuming Indiana still wants him after turning them down the last two times.

Seadragon76 Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Well... If you guys need me, I'll be in a seething rage after that little worthless POS school from Spokane finally broke through. I hope they get curb stomped in Glendale and then NEVER MAKE IT BACK!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HedleyLamarr Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 On 3/19/2017 at 1:13 AM, LMU said: I am officially getting sick of the irrational praise being heaped on Mark Few. He makes the tournament every year? With how awful the WCC is of course he does. Only 5/10 teams in the conference finished the regular season over .500 with the bottom 4 at 13-18, 9-22, 11-22, and 11-22. Pacific, Santa Clara, and San Francisco all had a new coach this year and other than Few, Bennett, and Rose no coach has a tenure longer than 5 years max. In Few's tenure, he's only cracked the Elite Eight once. He was bounced from the first round 3 times, bounced from the second round 8 times, and made 6 Sweet Sixteens. Since he took over for Monson Marquette, Louisville, George Mason, Memphis, Butler, VCU, and Wichita State managed to get Final Four bids from mid major conferences (counting C-USA as one). All I keep hearing from the talking heads is how amazing a job that he's doing with what he has and how he has such life balance with his fly fishing hobby. This leads me to two conclusions: 1. Gonzaga has topped out in where it can go from the WCC and needs to look into upgrading its conference to have a shot at growth, and 2. Few is complacent with being a perennial choker and won't look for a better job since it would add to his workload and take away from his hobbies. If that's what he wants to do with his life, that's fine. Let's just stop giving him credit for overcoming obstacles that he put on his own success.

First time ever I've gotten one quarter of the bracket right up to the Final Four. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
