Bammy is reeling.

They will hang on, they are winners

Scott Drew always looks like a humanoid automaton to me.

Tru Tv is reeruned showing Eastbound and Down after the tournament, there was bleep after bleep after bleep, it was like the Sopranos Mad Tv skit. ROFL

Two 5 seeds bite the dust. (Memphis, Clemson) And a third taken to the last seconds. (Michigan) And one more to go tonight. (Oregon)

More boring than the CFB Playoff so far.

Lots of blowouts and then games that are kinda close late but end up being 7-12 point wins. No upsets other than some really shitty 5 seeds going down. Hopefully this evening brings the heat a little.

There is a smoldering hole for CP local college fans.

Florida on pace to win by 80... next.

They are hitting their stride at the right time and so deep. Beautiful to see.

Florida knows how to win.

Why does the rim sound like a rattling piece of shit every time the ball doesn’t go directly in?

I know the answer but I will be rompered.

Does anyone care about the women’s ncaa tournament? These networks keep pushing it and I just don’t care. Anyone ever do a bracket for the women’s game??

Nobody gets rompered for simply being a clown.

Why in the heck would an explanation be grounds to be rompered? LMAO

It is crazy a multi-billion dollar tourney would have host games in massive stadiums that have trashed rims.

I have such a headache from watching this slopfest...

KCC wya

Such a sloppy shit effort.

Sloppy? Yes.

Shit? No.

True. Shit just describes my mood now. To see so much potential and want them to play to it...against a really bad team. I have a tendency to overreact a bit but i'm glad Pope finally got that first tourney win.

First half they were playing very loose. Looked much better after.

Finish at the rim and cut out dumb turnovers and this team can go places.

Is there any way to remove the state of Missouri from the US?

1st or 2nd round, I said.

Save any gloating about those frauds for Sunday.

Hurley is such a dbag

I said before and during the season that to meet expectations they need to win 1 game in the tournament. They’ve done that.

Everything else is house money.

It does not matter now that CC is out.

Welcome to be not being surprised.

So savant Shaka Smart lost tonight?

to Petino Jr. HA HA HA

So you think beating a #14 seed is something to hang your hat on?
Seems like a very low measuring stick to me.:shrug:

Pretty lame first round.

Considering the roster was built in 8 weeks off of all transfers with a HC in their first year, with only one of those players having played for the HC before, yes.

Sooooo deep. Arkansas needed a KU player to blow out his ACL in the last 5 minutes to win.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...0449fa82a2.jpg

Yeah. I have this one pegged as a pretty boring, chalky tournament. I expect the FF to be all 1’s or maybe a 2 sneaks in there but we were kinda due for a dud tourney and so far, we got it.

I believe the SEC set the record for most teams to advance to the 2nd round with 8, just for the B1G to do it a little later.

The key difference, however, is the SEC went 8-6 (including the first four) and the B1G went 8-0. LMAO

I prefer the favorites advance or else we end up with some 11 seed losing by 25 in the Final Four... I like seeing all of the 4vs5 and 3vs6 for the next couple days, and we even get a couple 1-seed matchups that look intriguing.

But yeah, it was an extra boring first round... I think the only time I was locked into any game, much less multiples (I remember last year watching UK lose and some Florida game that was like 98-98 in OT) was when Robert Morris was hanging on against Alabama, and there was another game that was pretty close.

Going by chalk, the SEC should have been 9-5 based off seeding. The Big Ten had a lower seed for all their matchups.

Purdue is fun to watch.

Big Ten team seedings:
2,3,4,4,5,5,6,7

SEC team's that lost seedings:
6,8,9,9,10,11 (mizz #6 lulz)

I wonder how the Big 10's 9-14 teams would have done...
3 of them had losing records and 2 others were 1 and 2 games over .500

Big Ten teams w/20 wins that didn't make the tourney: ZERO
Big 12 teams w/20 wins that didn't make the tourney: ZERO
Big East teams w/20 wins that didn't make the tourney: ZERO

Indiana and WVU, like Texas won 19 games and Texas got the play in. Big whoop. Doubtful that either of those teams could have done better.

Illinois #6 played a play-in team, Xavier.
UCLA #7 played Utah St.

Mizz #6, again, lulz.
Miss St #8 played Baylor #9 - 3pt loss
Oklahoma #9 played 2x defending champ UConn.
Georgia #9 played Gonzaga #8, perennial tourney team.
Vandy #10 played St. Mary's #7, had the lead late and lost by 3.
Arkansas #10 BEAT Kansas #7, lulz.
Texas #11 lost play-in game to 22 win Xavier.

Texas was 1 of 2 bad SEC losses. The other being, lulz, Mizz.

I for one just love how when the Chiefs or Jayhawks aren't doing well, the narrative is 'it's all sooooo boooring!!'.

Coincidence? I think not.

When do the Chiefs not do well? Like 15 years ago?

Big Ten has the most money so they will get all of the wins now.

So, you’re of the opinion that this tournament has been exciting?

Arkansas got themselves a HOF coach. That's what winners do.

I feel so dirty, but I agree with you. But, to be fair, Id bet its like that most places...

Having said that GO COOGS!
And eat sh#t pie, QUEER! ;)

Uh, KU sucked last year and the first round was far better. :shrug:

https://www.saturdaydownsouth.com/ne...y-first-round/

This could be Kansas... beating a shitty 2 seed before blowing it in the final 5 minutes.

Yup.

Calipari is hungry again. He's going to eat like a pig in Fayetteville.

Yeah, that's the point... no reason to brag about overall SEC numbers when they let in fourteen ****ing teams. LMAO

I guess that counts as nail biting if you’re a Bengals fan.

St John’s looks like they wanna win a “**** around and find out” award.

St. Johns isn't allowed to win anything, I knew they were going down quickly.

Best moment of the tournament last year was Oakland beating UK at the same time Florida/Colorado were at like 100-100 in OT, and there's been nothing close to that this year so far...... what do you say UK fans, was last year more exciting? LMAO

I wouldn't call it exciting but i wouldn't call it boring either.

Well...maybe i'm just too old to be in the hip crowd of instant gratification needers.

ROFL

No bragging. But there's no need to gloat when a bunch of lower seeded teams lose, like they would from any conference.

What's the alternative? Put in those teams with almost or sub .500 records? Do we just not give them 14 because 14 is too many, even though no one else could produce the resume to get in?

I'm just chirping against the silly "oHhhH, sEc iZ thE BesT hUHHuuHH??" sarcasm.

Was there a tournament last year? :shrug:

Kentucky will be good again too.

Isn't that the entire point of the first weekend?

I've always said in the long run, I want favorites to win... a Cinderella story is only fun until they lose by 25 in the Final Four. I much prefer seeing those 4/5 and 3/6 matchups this weekend than 13 and 14 seeds sprinkled in.

But there weren't even any butt-puckering moments for the favorites, much less upsets of even the weaker top seeds (guess we'll see if Arkansas can survive this whistle-fest).

Now you're just testing me. I won't fall for it. :hmmm:

Sure. I'm not saying it's been great. I'd love to see more drama and upsets just like the next guy. I just can go with "boring" though.

We def have a bit of butt puckering right now.

Calipari is a winner. Arkansas is a winner.

Bye bye St Joke

Good to see SJU go down, they play an absolutely disgusting brand of basketball

Yeah, one of the easiest 2-seed first weekend losses to pick... almost too easy to the point of second guessing how easy it is.

And for anyone wondering.

This isn't some Cal resurgence. It's simply the status quo. It's a goup of athletic guys outplaying another group of athletic guys who are missing a shit ton of pooint-blank shots and free throws.

The formula has always been, Cal's team needs to be able to outplay the other team to cover up his shortcomings.

You need to go to a better school if you want to win again Rick.

Not enough hookers. Rick is in the club but St. Johns is not.

Pope and Cal will both be winners. Kentucky and Arkansas are in the club.

Zuby has also become incredibly overrated by KU fans. The guy plays hard but he’s not a particularly good rebounder or shot blocker.

Now watch Drake win.

It’s gonna be hilarious when UK goes down to Illinois and Arkansas makes the FF
