i think Gonzaga crushes them
Yeah... I think Gonzaga took off the 1st 30 minutes today.... I don't think today is a good indicator of their future performances
Eh, we struggled hard in 1-16 in 2013-14, then just jackhammered Gonzaga in round 2.

College kids.. there's no carryover.
Even in '97, the Cats struggled with 13 Seed South Alabama and had their hands full with 12 seed C of Charleston (I think it was). I think early adversity in the tournament sometimes pushes teams.

My gf is a multiple time alumni of NMSU so I suppose I'm rooting for them, especially over UConn, although she couldn't care less about any sportsball.
i was going to put the ua/asu records here...but i forgot what they were.

i'll just go with fuck asu.

Not surprised about Iowa. They always seem to do well in the regular season and then choke in the tournament. They remind me a lot of Arizona in that respect. Such a disappointing yet predictable pattern.

So I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess that you expect AZ's season to end this weekend?

I mean, it's not even close. Iowa hasn't made a Sweet 16 this century.

It's like saying Arizona football and Alabama football have both fallen short of national championships a few times lately.

Hopefully Loyola loses their first game so we don't have to have to endure the Sister Jean updates ad nauseum like before. Enough already with that crap. So annoying.

They're starting to hit their ceiling and didn't keep their lead.

They're now just jacking up shots, probably because they're tired. Refs are calling everything a foul both ways though.

He has some of the outward characteristics. Gangly with long arms. It is also accompanied by a sunken breast bone. Marfans is a connective tissue disorder that affects the arteries and if those arteries dissect can cause immediate death. Let's hope he doesn't have that.
