Yogi's Picnic Basket Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 Shout out to Oregon doing this without Boucher. Florida with Ebgunu and Xavier without their starting backcourt at the beginning. All made Elite Eight or further without their best players. Sorry Mr. Crean it can be done though. Sent from my LGLS676 using BtownBanners mobile app Hoosier Guy and ALASKA HOOSIER 2 Quote

Sent from my LGLS676 using BtownBanners mobile app These teams accomplished what they did because their coaches are winners. Crean is a loser. Winners embrace challenges. Losers make excuses. Winners keep winning because they can adjust; losers fail because they can't or don't want to. ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote

Bell has been awesome since Boucher went out. Hayes has been great when Ebgunu went down. Goodin with Xavier tho they had more time to get it together. Oregon has dudes tho so. Brooks and Dorsey as well as Bell they were one team that could do it without a hiccup.Sent from my LGLS676 using BtownBanners mobile app ALASKA HOOSIER and Hoosier Guy 2 Quote
Uspshoosier Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 Well, at least we have a lot of experience dealing with fans after an #Elite8 loss. Get home safely Jayhawk fans. #DriveSober@lawerence KS PD Jayhawks getting trolled by own police dep. lolSent from my iPhone using BtownBanners ALASKA HOOSIER, WayneFleekHoosier and Hovadipo 3 Quote

VeevlandBrowns Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 (edited) Credit Oregon for some of the offensive sharpness (and certainly the shooting accuracy), but Kansas' gap coverage on defense was shoddy/sloppy way too much for a Regional Final. Some of the penetrations they gave up midway through the 2H, and their ball screen defense, were not Final Four quality. It's hard to break those habits. They broke them against MSU, and MSU didn't have the firepower to take advantage of some of the openings. But KU was more determined to prevent openings in that game than they were in this game. They were more of one mind on defense in that game. Edited March 26, 2017 by VeevlandBrowns Quote
IUfan_Charlie Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 SC vs. Florida is good so far. Gators are 6-10 from 3. Quote
Yogi's Picnic Basket Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 This UF vs USC game is awesome. Good offense against good defense mostly every possession. Little sloppy at times but man both teams team defense is outstanding. Sent from my LGLS676 using BtownBanners mobile app ALASKA HOOSIER and Trish 2 Quote

Hoosier Guy Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 This is really good. I'd be fine with South Carolina vs Gonzaga. Two teams that have never been to the FF facing off in a semifinal game? Sign me upSent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote
Hovadipo Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 I want the winner of this game to win the title. Decided that earlier today. I'm all in on the SEC East minus Kentucky. ALASKA HOOSIER, FortWayneHoosier and CR3AMnCR1MS0N 3 Quote
Hoosier Guy Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 I would be fine with anyone except UNC or Kentucky ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote
Yogi's Picnic Basket Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 I want Mike to get a final four but with an elite eight already they have had enough success the last decade. Would like to see Frank Martin in the final four. Whoever wins this game beats the Zags IMO. The team defense is outstanding. Both play with the grit it takes too. I think Oregon makes it from the other side. Dorsey and Bell as well as Brooks are all clicking at the same time. Sent from my LGLS676 using BtownBanners mobile app ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote
Hoosier Guy Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 I do hope the winner of this game beats Gonzaga. And I hope Oregon beats the winner of Kentucky/UNCSent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote

rebelhoosier848891 Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 Great game--defensive slugfest--back and forth--last one with ball may win. I would personally love to see South Carolina pull it out. I am in the ABK camp--Anybody But Kentucky. Can't stand UNC either so it would make my day to see South Carolina or the Zags cut down the net this year. ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote
Trish Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 SC has been outstanding on the defensive end, Florida pretty good as well.I'm not use to this brand of basketball, it's weird.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote
