Play-in game
Arkansas-Pine Bluff vs Winthrop


http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/tournament/bracket



Play-in game is on the 16th, first Tournament game tips-off on the 18th.

Favorites must be the 4 #1 seeds, with Kansas or Kentucky the teams you would want your money on. But the mid-majors play good basketball and we should see a few upsets. In my bracket, I have the 4 #1 seeds advancing because the 2 seeds don't seem strong enough to really take them out. However, the team I had playing Kansas was Georgia Tech, ACC Tournament Runners-up. I will check out injuries and the like and make changes to my bracket, so expect some edit's coming.


In he East, things were a bit easier with Texas having shit the bed lately and WVU being the only other real favorite.


In the west, Syracuse will be short handed with the injury to Arinze Onuaku being a big blow. KSU, for me, are unproven and Gonzaga are mediocre. Xavier and Vandy might surprise some people, but the 'Cuse are still a strong team, so I see them advancing.


In the South, my Blue Devils are the #1 seed, with Villanova, the team who knocked them out last year grabbing the 2 seed. Maybe the weakest region with Purdue losing their best player to injury, Notre Dame and & A&M being average, and Baylor being unproven. I see Duke advancing, but 'Nova has a great chance to advance themselves.

This needs to be moved to "Other Sports" in the Entertainment forum.

Are you gonna move it or are you gonna make me cut/paste?

My powers are limited to the Entertainment forum, so we'll have to wait for an admin or Off-Topic moderator to move it.

So when does this tournament start? And who's the favourite? Give us a little introduction to try and draw more interest to the thread.

Holy shit. You fouled him on a 3. 30ft from the basket and you foul him.


OMG! You are joking. Had to be at least 35ft 3 pointer to send the game into double OT.


GOTT

Never saw this thread before!

Nothing but net on that 3. Was it that same Crawford who dunked on LeBron of which all the footage was taken away?

Yep. That 3 made me wet. I was like "What is he doing?". Then - COUP! Tie game. Unlucky for Xavier who played superbly, but K-State should have put the game away. Missed like 15 FT's or something preposterous like that.

:no::faceplm:

More hate, but it's to be expected. Duke are Duke after all. It's unlikely that you even know where Duke's campus is. But, shucks, Wikipedia exists doesn't it.

Fair enough, there were enough hours inbetween. You watching Baylor - Duke? Them Duke boys are awfully white and pasty.

Aww, that's a low blow Barry. But of course, I am watching mah team. Real talk, if we win this game, we are the champs. Baylor have the size and athleticism to beat anyone, which is why they've only lost by an average of like 6 points. But they are trash, TBF. Just throw up anything and pray. Hate that type of basketball.


But, now what does Coach K do? Put in a cold Singler? He is another scoring threat, but can't hit a thing. Or do you put the brother Plumlee in with Thomas and play defense. Smith is eating bloke for Baylor up and Scheyer only needs one shot to catch fire.


EDIT: THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!

You were right about Baylor, it's not my favorite type of ball either. I was rooting for Kansas State after that fantastic double overtime against Xavier (call me fickle) but now I think I'll go for Michigan, they have the worst record out of the 4 and I do like an underdog.

Of the 4 teams, the team I hate the most. I live in Michigan and the press over rates them in everything every year and it pisses me off. But they have no business in the FF TBF. Worst lane violation call I've seen, then poor coaching on Maryland's part.


BARRY! WHERE DID YOU GO?!

Butler deserves all the credit in the world for how they played tonight.

Haha, definitely. What a final, what a final. You think Coach K will go to the NBA now?

The NJ Nets are offering around 14-15M for his services. I have much respect for Coach K, but for Duke, none. So if he leaves Duke for NJ, then i'd be very happy. He has been carrying that shit college for years.

No chance TBH. Coach K = Duke.
