Cincy is a very good defensive team but I think they come up just short on having enough firepower. Think CINCY keeps it close but UCLA hits the big shots late when it matters.

Go PAC. Rooting hard for the LA schools and gulp, Oregon (maybe not so much)

Arkansas just scored 20 points in the last 5 mins of the half

Remember when Michigan State used to play defense?

Oregon is in a tough one against Rhode Island.

How kind of the refs to keep UNC in the bonus almost the entire second half.

rgdeuce · Post by **rgdeuce** » Sun Mar 19, 2017 5:10 pm

Arkansas choking in the moment. Three straight worthless possessions

CalStateTempe · Post by **CalStateTempe** » Sun Mar 19, 2017 5:11 pm

Nice no call on the charge.

rgdeuce · Post by **rgdeuce** » Sun Mar 19, 2017 5:12 pm

Lmao. No tip? Go suck williams dick some more

Jesus where is the charge? If thats a no call then its a travel. Good lord

CalStateTempe · Post by **CalStateTempe** » Sun Mar 19, 2017 5:13 pm

Rg. Youve called it. Refs helping sustain a lot of narratives during. The first and second rounds.

Thanks for playing arky.

Embarrassing finish by Arkansas wow. Both Wichita and Arkansas shit themselves

That singer in the Directv commercials is extremely annoying, like fingernails scratching on a chalkboard. You feel like the guy needs to be taken out. It almost makes me change the channel and it does me dread commercial time. Makes me want to see Directv go bankrupt to shut this guy up.

Lol. Not that our game was super egregious, but the officiating was definitely in our favor and when the hell does that ever happen? I dont think you can say its all a coincidence at this point. That charge/travel no call is one of the worst "I didnt see thats" ive ever seen. He probably could have taken out a knife and stabbed him on the floor and still not gotten a whistle. Overturning a tip when it was clearly tipped?

Arkansas didnt do themselves any favors though. Got away from what they were doing to try to shorten the game and it did them in.

rgdeuce · Post by **rgdeuce** » Sun Mar 19, 2017 5:29 pm

Only a choke job and some help by the zebras kept another ACC from going home, and to an 8 seed. This is unreal. Whatever ACC gets in the tournament next year, three should be shaved off as penance for this

rgdeuce · Post by **rgdeuce** » Sun Mar 19, 2017 5:50 pm

Here comes oregon. Gotta secure that board.

On cue. RI nails a three off a missed defensive board.

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Sun Mar 19, 2017 6:05 pm

This RI team is a bit too cocky for me...ironic as they are playing UO.

Rooting for the Ducks to send them packing back to the shitty A-10.

Good lord Oregon, get your shit together

Longhorned · Post by **Longhorned** » Sun Mar 19, 2017 6:13 pm

This is complete madness. Rhode Island has been stretching their D all game to prevent Oregon from raining 3's, and Oregon hasn't been able to make them pay. And the rebounding has been astounding.

rgdeuce · Post by **rgdeuce** » Sun Mar 19, 2017 6:17 pm

How big are those two clanks Dorsey put up at the line a few possessions ago.

Let's go Trojans!

Hell yeah Oregon. cold blooded shot by Dorsey.

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Sun Mar 19, 2017 6:27 pm

Keep it going Pac.

If the LA schools can pull out W's the Pac-12 being 9-0 with 4 teams in the Sweet 16 will be the narrative tomorrow....moreso than the Big 10.

WTF is it with late game possessions by all these teams, waste 25 seconds and then chuck a 30 ft contested 3. Vandy, Princeton and others all doing that while only down 1 is maddening. Wichita State's last possession today was horrible.
Rhode island wasted 15-20 seconds down 3 before even starting their offensive set.

Even in the PAC-12 they never whistle for contact on a made 3. In this case, there was no real contact.

SCCats · Post by **SCCats** » Sun Mar 19, 2017 6:50 pm

Take a look at the "5???" graphic just down a little in the article below.

No contact, clean release and follow through, AND he leaned heavy to try to draw something. Brutal

These UCLA announcers

Welsh gets the ball on the post and kicks it out: welsh needs to take advantage of that post position and take that shot

Welsh gets ball on the post, shoots a hook and misses: that's not welsh's game. He wants to shoot jumpers.

Idiots.
