Sprint Center in KC is empty right now. Seems like KU fans would go watch the first game for fun. I bet SAP Center is full for Gonzaga game.

I've seen all of one possession and #10 probably can't guard Brooks.

Two possessions later Michigan put a larger guy on Brooks, and he can't guard Brooks either.

Should we root for the Ducks or not? If so, how far, certainly not to the FF?

michigan's play after their timeout was terrible with about 1:00. Left. If Arizona ran that play, most of us would be calling for Millers head.

He was trash last game outside of that one big make late.

A lot of flipping back and forth, but from what I saw, it looked like they treated it like an old Big East game. They were letting a lot of physical stuff go.

Meanwhile, the refs in this game are a joke. :lol: at the foul call on that four pt play

Gonzaga already 1 from the bonus. Between that and your 25% shooting, a five point deficit is more like 15

I guess I kind of get the concern with West Virginia in the sense that they're pretty good at playing football and if the refs allow that they're really tough to beat. On the other hand, holy crap are they terrible offensively.

Assuming we get by X today. We'll beat whichever team advances between the Zags and WV.

We're just better.

This game is a joke. Im waiting for Huggins to throw out a bear trap for Karnowsky and as soon as he gets caught, a West Virginia player mauls him with a machete before the rest of the team jumps on him like a pack of hyenas and takes him down to the bone

Everyone is really good at this stage, but so are we and we are ready to get nasty.
