Nahh, nothing against March Madness but it doesn't come close to the FIFA World Cup. Replace school rivalries with nations and myriads of different cultures around the world, 3.5 million fans inside the stadiums and 4 billion viewers globally.

Agreed. Taken another way, its the closest thing we have in the states to the world cup.

VCU plays like such a mid major.

I'd rather play VCU...We'd run them out of the gym after grinding them to a pulp. OSU is a bad match up.

VCU doesn't have a player over 6'9, not sure why people want Ohio St with the top 5 pick over them

And it all started with the UCLA Pac 12 tournament win.

This is something you'd see in a movie. Really hope we get that path.

I agree. I think RHJ limits him somewhat, but not completely. IF UA can keep D'Angelo to <1.0pps, that would bode well. Hopefully we get different refs than today.

AZCatGirl · Post by **AZCatGirl** » Thu Mar 19, 2015 5:17 pm

Lack of tourney experience is really showing for Utah. Making some silly mistakes early.

Because of VCU's style of play. They hack, grab, hook, push, and slap, every game, and they get away with it most of the time. It's like they know the refs can't call them for every single foul, so they eventually get their way and turn the game into a slugfest. And you just know that in that style of game, Arizona is going to be the team that gets called for most of the fouls. And we don't have the depth to survive games against good teams when half our players are in foul trouble.
