Drew22 Posted March 28, 2009 Author Share Posted March 28, 2009 Gonzaga deserves to lose with what they have on. They look awful. ZAGS? Come on.I'd still like to see someone this decade refer to them as the Gonzaga Bulldogs. They called them that a lot last night. I was surprised.

Come on.I'd still like to see someone this decade refer to them as the Gonzaga Bulldogs. Why? Bulldogs is such an uninspired mascot name, I'd actually prefer if they dropped it altogether.

NEW.ERA Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 I really I'm hopeful that Mizzou can run with UConn and win this game. JETS|PACK|JAYS|NUFC|BAMA|BOMBERS|RAPS|ORANJE| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCall Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 I really I'm hopeful that Mizzou can run with UConn and win this game.I know they maybe just didn't want to sound too cocky, but in an article about the match-up on espn.com, Calhoun and some players are a little worried about the speed at which Mizzou plays. Plus, with Dyson out, their bench is really only 2 deep, as opposed to Mizzou's seemingly endless bench, which allows their players to stay fresh and fast.Could be one of the best match-ups of the whole tournament. Little under 3 hours away. Getting very excited. https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCall Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 52-52. If you're not watching Mizzou-UConn, you're missing a pretty good game. https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfwabel Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 1-I think it is near certain that UConn will play in the prime time game next Saturday against the MSU/Louisville winner.2-What are you fans going to do on the east coast for Earth Hour?

buzzcut Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 1-I think it is near certain that UConn will play in the prime time game next Saturday against the MSU/Louisville winner.If North Carolina wins tomorrow, they will play in the late game.

Avenger23 Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 Great game between Villanova and Pittsburgh... Villanova won it on a shot with .05 left on the game clock, 78-76. This game went back and forth the whole night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TFoA Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 Pitt got what they deserved. They play a dangerous game, and they got burnt. Props to Villanova for once again going to the Final 4. A rare under-the-radar Big East team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A rare under-the-radar Big East team.This is how Pitt has played in the big games for the past decade.No matter who is on the team, they always, always, do two things come conference/big dance time:1. never make free throws2. play dangerous and "win ugly", if at all3. just plain curl up and die Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew22 Posted March 29, 2009 Author Share Posted March 29, 2009 That Pitt/Nova game is probably the best of the tourney. If not that, then Gonzaga/WKU. Eagles/Heels/Dawgs/Falcons/Hawks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBTV Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 Holy s--- that was exciting. Now just debating whether or not to make the trip to Detroit.'Nova's first tourney with me as an alum = final four.

How many nuked brackets does it take?You seem to dislike Pitt coaches an awful lot.I dont see why anyone would blame Dixon. The players kept making mistakes (bad passes, bad shots, etc.). The players kept missing free throws. The players got in foul trouble. They players were awful at rebounding, and there was nothing anyone could do about 'Nova almost tying the record for free throws (other than not getting into foul trouble, but I digress). Dixon is a great coach, and the good that the Pitt basketball program has done under him in just the past few years outweighs the bad.All in all, it was just the classic "lets choke with style" Pitt loss. Only this time you could see it coming, since they have been playing badly the whole tourney. And, in reality, you cant pin this all on Pitt. 'Nova is a scary team, and played a great game themselves.In any case, at least we made it past the sweet 16. We should have at least made it to the final four, but to make it past the 16 is good enough for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Dixon, why can't he ever instill the mental toughness needed to stop his teams from choking in March? This is a yearly occurrence with Pitt for the duration of his tenure-I suspect the problem is with him.

DG_ThenNowForever Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 I'm with rams80. I've watched enough Big East basketball to know that Pitt is built for the regular season, and is a shrinking violet in the postseason. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
