🏀 RollTideBama NCAA Tournament Bracket Challenge

[UAgrad93]

I didn't get in but I am currently, 27 of 33. Not too bad since I have watched all of 2 games this season.

Yesterday was a disappointing day for watching basketball. I'm not talking about my bracket (Dayton and UCONN make three I've missed in my Sweet Sixteen) but about how sloppy the basketball play was...

Off the top of my head...UF and Pitt didn't break 30 in the first half, noticed St. Louis didn't as well. Cuse didn't...and I'm missing another one or two teams in this list.

It wasn't what I'd call good defense either...seemed like a lot of 1st round jitters at a glance. :icon_scratch:

On a brighter note...still tied for 3rd in my local pool but there's only 15 guys ahead of me now.

My Son-in-law, who played at Bama, is very disappointed with CBB now. Says it has evolved into a bunch of small players shooting 3's. Which would account for the low scores you speak of. They score less because of trying to score more at one time.

Kansas and Stanford in a defensive battle. Stanford is killing them in the paint.

 

[bamaraider]

Picked KU, but going for Stanford. Wife has a little cousin that just got accepted there. Going into architecture.

 

[bamaraider]

Wow what a steal and shot by Connor Frank. Kansas up by 2 at halftime.

 

[bamaraider]

And another one bites the dust

 

[bamaraider]

UK-UL for the Sweet 16. Can't wait.

UGA lost in the NIT's...makes the first SEC team to lose in post season play.

Currently, the conference is 6-0 in the dance.

Let's face it: Wichita State and Oklahoma were lucky to beat Bama. Did anyone really think either of those two were going very far? And what's up with one guy having to play UCLA? How is that fair?

Big Ten has zero left. So much for playing sports indoors during the cold weather.

 

[bamaraider]

Michigan and Michigan State?

 

[PhillyGirl]

UK-UL for the Sweet 16. Can't wait.

Really looking forward to that match up.

Big Ten has zero left. So much for playing sports indoors during the cold weather.

Michigan and Michigan State?

...and Wisconsin.

It's interesting there are no schools left from the state of North Carolina.

First time since 1979.

What will the odds be for a SEC vs SEC in the championship game?

 

[TheChief]

What are the odds that UCLA upsets Florida, particularly after the Bruins' impressive victory over Steve?

Gators are so sound. Their defense is so good that they can win even when they are not shooting well. Michigan State is the only team that I see who has a shot at them. I have changed my perception of Kentucky. They are playing really well. Te UK/Wch. St. game is one of the few I have seen where both team played well.

The Vols are also playing their best ball of the year now. Mchigan is so well balanced that it ill be a tough chore for the Vols to advance to the Elite 8.
