Sparty and me both.

Poor showing by the B1G this tournament.

Better than Pac12!

Way to early prediction, Syracuse @ IU in 2016 B1G/ACC Challenge

Melo bumped the official there.

Hawaii can look like the Harlem Globetrotters and a pick up team inside the same possession.

Six Sweet 16 teams for the ACC is a new record. ACC went 12-1 this weekend, though its teams did not beat anyone seeded seventh or better.

That's crazy...

Thank heavens Billy Packer isn't still doing the NCAA tournament.

I know I'm going to sound old and grouchy, (do I ever sound otherwise?), but my god what has happened to the game of college basketball?! In particular, what has happened to officiating? Isn't it their job of keeping in check, violations such as "walking", "palming", "double dribbling", "going over the back", "moving picks", etc., etc., etc?

It's an embarrassment out on the court. Most of the lower seeded teams resemble little more than pick up squads from down at the "Y", with too many of the upper echelon looking nearly as bad. And yet, the officials let it go, as if they've been directed by the NCAA to do so, (actually, come to think of it, they probably have been). No doubt, this is some socially based directive to eliminate conformity to rules, which in their eyes, affects a disproportionate percentage of lower income kids.

If I wanted to see this sloppy of a game, I'd watch the NBA, which is why I don't.

The NCAA seriously needs to get the mop bucket out and clean up the spew.

Rant over.

I would had to have been kept from the medicine cabinet, where razors and other sharp objects are stored. Couldn't stand that loud mouthed fool.

If UNI beats Texas A&M, the SEasy will be shut out of the Sweet 16.

The NCAA committee tried to get that Texas/Texas A&M matchup in the Sweet 16 and both might not make it out of the first weekend

Wisconsin needs to slow down. They had success early on playing in the halfcourt, but the last few minutes they've tried to run with Xavier and now they're reeling.

that was gonna be another 2nd round matchup... UNI beat Texas or this would be the committee's matchup... But UNI can knock them both out instead lol

Definitely pulling for Xavier now, I don't want to possibly play Wisconsin should we win this Friday.  Xavier would be a tough out, but Wisconsin just has our number.

We can beat Wisconsin fine as long as they don't get double our free throws.

Edit: Xavier is actually the only matchup available we haven't beaten already this year.

Well when you pick MSU and A&M to the final four, and they both lose. I am now in absolute FULL force for the Hoosiers.
