[WayneFleekHoosier 48,228]

Work, basketball practice, hockey game, beers... Not as much basketball as I would have liked. Make up for it tomorrow :)

EWU should have started playing like this an hour ago.

I'd still take Jois on our Hoosiers.

[WayneFleekHoosier 48,228]

Harvey has missed a ton of shots!

Edit, except that one. Haha

I'm pretty sure they didn't talk about Mattingly the whole time.

He plays for Lamar.

[OliviaPope40 6,503]

Struggling. To. Keep. Eyes. Open.

I crashed after the NC State Game. I couldn't keep my eyes open. Lol

I thought UK looked very beatable against an awful Hampton team last night. Go field!

[FortWayneHoosier 6,103]

this article is really neat gives some cool facts about the games last night....some nail biters!

heres some crazy stats from the article, ill post the link below

 

• Eleven games were decided by fewer than 10 points Thursday, tying the single-day NCAA tournament high. Only three tournament days in history matched that number, the last of which came in 2010.

• Nine games were decided by five or fewer points, tying the single-day tournament high -- one dating to March 15, 2001.
• Including the five Thursday, as well as Dayton's win over Boise State on Wednesday night, there have been six games decided by one point thus far in the 2015 NCAA tournament. The record for most games decided by one point in a single NCAA tournament is seven -- total. That has happened three times (in 1982, 1990, and 1998).

I believe 12 of the 16 underdogs beat the spread.

[Scooter D 928]

I lost all 5 of those 1 point games yesterday...today has got to go better for me.

[GloryDays 5,918]

Iowa St really crashed my bracket.I had them making a little noise.Oh Well.

Should've known not to bet on Purdue

 

Hammons had a nice game but what was he thinking on the drive to the basket which tied the game at the end of regulation? I know he has to be concerned about the kickout, but he moved to his left on the drive opening up a path to the basket. The guy was driving right to the area where he was standing and he moves to the left.

It's embarrassing how tired I was when I finally went to bed yesterday. Literally all I did was watch basketball.

[biteoftheapple 4,115]

I an all set to watch again. I am excited for our game. I have a nice feeling heading into our game. Go Hoosiers!

Does anyone shoot 5-15 ft pull-up jumpers anymore?  Everyone goes crashing in with a wild layup attempt.

That's analytics for you. Anything that isn't a layup or 3 pointer is a bad shot. :rtfm:

(Shameless look at my daughter video, because I think she's cute and it relates to basketball and March madness so I have an excuse to be that guy showing pictures of his child that nobody cares about and annoys everyone but I'm doing it anyway and you all can just deal with it)

[Hovadipo 55,739]

Georgia MSU should be a good game. I had some trouble picking it.
