Awesome! Kentucky just keeps coasting like I said.

Definitely good for Kentucky IMO. I was actually worried about playing Arizona because I don't think we matched up well with them. Buffalo runs an up tempo offense and Kentucky is really good going up tempo. Much more winnable game for us I think. 

 

That said, Buffalo is dang good so Kentucky will need to bring it. That was definitely a heck of a game from Buffalo last night.

I wouldn’t bet on it. Buffalo could win, they look pretty good

Yup Buffalo is certainly impressive. Coach Cal ain't gonna overlook em though so I bet UK gives a much better effort than Zona did. It should be a fun game as both teams play close to a similar style.

Hass out for the rest of the Tourney! Fractured elbow. Really Bad news for Purdue. I am not sure they beat Butler without him?? That would hurt my bracket bigtime if they lose Sunday.

SON OF A BISQUIT!!!!!!! Terrible way for him to end his college career!!!!:wall: Poor dude! And why was he even out there anymore??? They were already smokin Cal, not sure why most there starters were out there so late in the game with such a lead? I just don’t get Painter sometimes :nono:  Time for Haarms to step up, Butler is ALWAYS a challenge!!!!!

Virginia is tied with a 16 seed at halftime. 

 

Wow. Tied at halftime and they end up losing by 20! That's terrible. 

 

I used to love March Madness. I stopped following college basketball after the conferences, especially the Big East, started changing (conference realignment). But I love upsets. I hope they continue.

That was 1 reason why I had KY going to the Final 4. I never thought Virginia was that great. I didn't think they would lose to UMBC but I had faith in KY if those 2 were to play. KY has to be careful with Buffalo, that is a game they should win but Buffalo smoked Arizona.

Virginia just never has a good offense. In some ways last night was probably a fluke and if they played a 7 game series Virginia would probably win, its still a stunning loss. One of the biggest upsets in sports history. Its right up there with App. State beating Michigan in football years back.

That's why I love college basketball. The best team doesn't normally win the championship because anything can happen in a one game scenario.

Me too. I love it. One of my favorites was the Valparaiso upset years ago when Bryce Drew made that last minute shot to beat Ole Miss.

 

 

My alma mater is a member of the America East, the conference that UMBC is from. I will be rooting for them and for Buffalo. This is exciting. :)

I am a fan of Notre Dame, which is in the ACC when it comes to B-ball. And Virginia's defense was great, but if you could play defense and give theirs trouble, you had a great shot at beating them. Also Notre Dame looking to be NIT champs! (better than what Virginia did :)

    • To the bolded, I don't constantly hear that. I see people say it on the Internet. It was a big thing when we were looking for a HC, how candidates would be scared off because of how the Reich/Saturday thing went, Irsay's meddling, etc. One specific theory was Sirianni would tell Steichen not to take the Colts job. We see how that went.   Does Irsay's history negatively impact the team? I'd like to know if there's any examples where you think it has.
    • Some are not understanding this. Have a feeling there will be an upset group after Thursday night. Give AR every opportunity to succeed by surrounding him with weapons. If Pittman was to miss a few weeks, it would be bad. Tbh we should draft offense the 1st and 2nd rounds. Sign a Simmons and a vet corner. 
    • I think we are closer to a great offense than a great defense. Especially within the duration of AR rookie contract and JT’s peak years, which I think are the next few seasons. I’d much rather load up offensively to assist AR’s development and then focus on building a strong defense for when that time runs out. That means continuing to build up the o-line and put weapons around AR. That’s basically what Ballard said earlier that their goal was. I just don’t see them focusing on defense, and I hope people on here don’t get disappointed if we see an early run on offense, pass catcher and interior line both, versus needed pieces on defense. Not predicting that will happen, but i do somewhat hope it does. They are both deep classes though, so i wont be shocked if they dont search for mid round value there. 
    • Honest question; do you think Jim's history with substance abuse negatively impacts the team? The media certainly believes so. I constantly hear media say players, coaches, and front office personnel don't want to come here because of Jim's addiction history and personality.   Every player I've seen talk about Jim absolutely loves him and says he's one of their favorite people in the world.
    • Penix is dropping a lot. I wonder where he goes. 3rd round?   I hope Nabers drops to the Giants. It would be nice to see him in the NorthEast.
