It's always a good day when another whiny ass Hurley loses.

Surprised Baylor played Duke so tough in the first half. It was fun for awhile at least.

Hurley put the curse on Baylor. And the tourney gods jumped at the chance to fuck Hurley twice in one day .... at Baylor's expense.

Dayum, Proctor ....

Duke definitely looking good - Proctor went off

Speaking of Proctor .... and Richard Cranium our man from Melbourne would spurns Sydneysiders .... 6'6" Proctor is from Sydney and 6'6" Dell'Orso is from Melbourne. Fuckin' Dook

Let's go Kentucky Cats!

So if UK wins, Boz is out. Other than our guys, only Fili B and Murauskis are still in it. Have I got that right?

Correct but hold that thought for a few hours and let’s look at it again

Boz keeping Illinois in this

UAEebs86 · Post by **UAEebs86** » Sun Mar 23, 2025 3:58 pm

Can someone tell these announcers about 0-0-0 Boz?

Alieberman · Post by **Alieberman** » Sun Mar 23, 2025 4:04 pm

These announcers have not mentioned Boz’s age once in this broadcast…. Amateurs

Pisses me off how he threw away last year.

I want that stupid fan base to think they have a chance and Kentucky to just rip their hearts out.

Alieberman · Post by **Alieberman** » Sun Mar 23, 2025 4:23 pm

Just saw Kerr on the Kentucky sidelines in street clothes.. I totally forgot he was on Kentucky

AZCatGirl · Post by **AZCatGirl** » Sun Mar 23, 2025 4:42 pm

Fuck off Illinois!

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Sun Mar 23, 2025 4:47 pm

And they are whining about fouls. This is not 2005 in Chicago you motherfuckers.

Go cryin’ home!

AZCatGirl · Post by **AZCatGirl** » Sun Mar 23, 2025 4:49 pm

We should add Illinois to the whiny asses list.

AZCatGirl · Post by **AZCatGirl** » Sun Mar 23, 2025 4:58 pm

Future Pac 12 member Colorado St. looking pretty good.

MrKyle · Post by **MrKyle** » Sun Mar 23, 2025 5:38 pm

Seems like some better games today so far - was humorous to see Boz have a good game and the announcers talk him up a bit (knowing what we know here)

Colo St. looking good but wheels might be coming off here

AZCatGirl · Post by **AZCatGirl** » Sun Mar 23, 2025 5:40 pm

Wouldn't be shocked if Arkansas is the last double digit seed left at the end of tonight.

AZCatGirl · Post by **AZCatGirl** » Sun Mar 23, 2025 5:52 pm

Iowa St. needs to get their shit together. Way too good to be playing this bad.

What a finish! Feel horrible for Colorado St

I don’t understand the Lady Gaga tie in. The song doesn’t even make sense as some kind of anthem about perseverance or striving for excellence.

Okay that explains it a little, but down over 20?! Didn't see this coming at all.

AZCatGirl · Post by **AZCatGirl** » Sun Mar 23, 2025 7:33 pm

Well the final score was slightly more respectable at least.

AZCatGirl · Post by **AZCatGirl** » Sun Mar 23, 2025 9:38 pm

I can't believe they're airing the Dan Hurley post game like we're supposed to feel sorry for someone who just won back to back titles.

Not to mention what a whiny ass he is just like his brother.

Alieberman · Post by **Alieberman** » Sun Mar 23, 2025 9:50 pm

Sweet 16 Conference Breakdown:

SEC - 7
Big 10 - 4
Big 12-4
ACC- 1

I know we were trying to downplay the SEC with some early losses... but 7 teams in the sweet 16 is crazy

But good to see Big 12 is right there with Big 10

AZCatGirl · Post by **AZCatGirl** » Sun Mar 23, 2025 9:55 pm

iowa St. is the only disappointing loss. We all knew Baylor wasn't beating Duke and Kansas wouldn't last long, but I really didn't see the Cyclones going down this soon after how tough they were all year long.

Injuries and fatigue caught up with them.

Yeah... but still maybe the most surprising outcome of the tourney so far IMO was them absolutely getting killed tonight by Miss

Did not see that happening

The game-winner by Maryland's Green to beat Colorado State (my grandson graduates from CSU in May) was devastating for me...

..and, as all too often, I was disappointed that UNM still hasn't made it to its first Sweet 16.

The commentary after the game on CBS was ridiculous. One actually said he would have to take 4 steps in that situation and probably not even then.

Apparently if you have the ball only in one hand after picking up your dribble you can take as many steps as you want.

Seriously, that was/is one of the worst explanations I've ever heard!!! I'll bet Steratore never played basketball.

If taken literally, he wouldn't call travelling on a player running down the court juggling the ball....

In case you were wondering if UConn was embarrassed by Hurley’s postgame tirade…

UConn's director of communications Bobby Mullen reportedly threatened to "ruin" the reporter's life if he did not remove the video of Hurley's rant about the refs.

So essentially, UConn is a bag of dicks. So glad Hurley is watching at home alongside his shitheel brother. Fuck them both, and their schools.

Amen. Trust me when I say UCONN thinks they are holier than thou.

Apologies if this has been asked elsewhere in the 5 active threads with tourney chat, but do any of you know if the Fri/Sun teams from the 1st weekend have ever switched to Thurs/Sat for the S16 weekend before this year (similar for the Thurs/Sat slot)? Seems like if you were in the Thurs/Sat slot opening weekend you stayed there until the FF weekend. Duke/AZ get 2 less days to rest & prepare than Houston/Purdue for example, who both played on Sat and don't play again until this Friday...

I was assuming AZ was going to play again Fri this week. Now I can't even watch the game!

I believe that the first/second round sites/days each contain two pods of four teams - the pods "days" do not correlate with the regional "days"

Before they went to the "pod" system I believe each region stayed on the same day (thu/sat and fri/sun) throughout.

Yes, maybe - but that was way before this year

Sure. What I'm thinking is it was more important to have more teams closer to home then have that extra day between games.
