Texas Tech is the better team. They look really impressive and fun to watch because they play at a fast pace. This is not an upset and Texas Tech is underrated.

Gonzaga will win a national championship after surviving this one.
Re: 2019 NCAA Tournament Game Thread
Outside of the assu loss, this is by far my favorite result of the tournament so far. How about the guy who blocked the shot out of bounds and then saved it!? Fuck Gonzaga! Seriously.
On a side note, I traveled from Tucson to Lubbock in 2012 for the Arizona-TTU game (fans weren't nice and what a stinky hole Lubbock was) but who would have thought that the two programs would be polar opposites in 2019 (not to mention they went to an EE last year). It's TTU for crying out loud! If something happens to Sean and no one (UCLA or Kansas) gets Beard, by far my #1 choice.

At this point I guess this is all you have to laugh at with the season KU had, the impending departure of Self, and massive sanctions coming down the pipe.enfuego wrote:Longhorned wrote:Gonzaga will win a national championship after surviving this one.

The game is in Louisville so the game isn't far from Purdue. Purdue fans have always been loud.cats101 wrote:Sounds like Mackey Arena for this EE game.

Anyone else noticing the glut of threes in all these games, sweet sixteen and elite eight? Nailing from way out too. All these shooters were developing their game in high school when the Steph Curry effect hit and now I guess we’re seeing it come on strong in college.

This is the game of Edwards's life. His second half might be as hot as I've ever seen anyone in the tourney.

Purdue is going to be sick knowing how close they came to a Final Four.

These elite 8 games have been so high level and so intense. Reminds me why I hate watching them when we are involved in one. Gut wrenching for the fans, especially Gonzaga and Perdue today

Re: 2019 NCAA Tournament Game Thread
Just won my pool. Thanks, Spartans! I never pick these freshman-filled Duke/UK teams. Rarely works out.
And yes, I know AZ will be one such team next year, but I'm hoping that we'll have enough experience and poise to go far.

Re: 2019 NCAA Tournament Game Thread
Yes, 3 top ten picks, MSU has less talent than last year, more seniority, VA, experience, it is important to have experience, on the last MSU possession , Zion would have slammed that ball with 5 sec left to go up 3 and given the ball back. Winston dribbled it out cause he knew what to do. I hope Nico and Josh stay a while
Arizona State might have the most surprisingly anemic history in men's basketball of any program that you might think is better than it is.

I cheer for sparty if they aren't playing Arizona, but I might be secretly cheering for Bruce pearl just so I can see emmert have to give the trophy to him, and have to fake smile through his teeth because of Pearl's audacity and brazen uncooperative manner in dealing with the FBI stuff.

Incredibly stupid play by Auburn. It was a ticky tack foul, but why run under someone in that scenario? So dumb.
