LOL, what a disaster this second week has been. This is what happens when you can't pick your spots. I should've packed it up after the first two rounds, but I'm a glutton for punishment.

I don't know how Butler does it, because on just about every metric they are pretty much mediocre, but they just WIN. And that's all that matters to me.

Obviously it's a great story, but it's terrible basketball IMO, so it's tough to get all mushy about it like with George Mason.

Yeah true, but I watched every televised minute of George Mason in '06 and they were entirely mediocre at times. Pretty much Every CBB team has flaws these days in the one and done era, and the gap has closed between big and small because of it.

Mason was brilliant in the tournament though. They beat an all-time UConn team, not to mention Michigan State and North Carolina, rather than a retarded Syracuse team missing its best inside scorer and a poorly coached, exhausted K-State.

Bizarro world: WV 0-10 from 2, 0-0 FT's, 7-12 from 3!

philcski 03-27-2010 06:59 PM

WVU 0-15 from 2, 8-15 from 3 at the half... and they're winning the game.
Don't think I've ever seen a stat line like that before.

They are super legit vs Mich St or Tenn. Both teams they can compete with and defeat.

On the flip side, UK 10-20 from 2, 0-8 from 3. Kentucky's 10 turnovers have killed them. 2nd foul on Cousins late could be a huge boost for WVU.

Make that a 3rd on an absolutely stupid play.

If Wall doesnt make it in the NBA he may have a future as a bull fighter with that ole defense...

When my wife is yelling "STOP SHOOTING 3'S!" at the TV, you know the coaches for UK are doing a crappy job.

Kentucky just keeps jacking threes, just like I keep betting the overs....like a dumbass...

If I hadn't bet UK, they'd be drilling them. FML.

The Butler, WV, Baylor, Tenn final 4 will do about the same ratings as the Turfway park debacle did today on the USA network

Cannon Shell 03-27-2010 08:17 PM

Jay Bilas is getting close to Billy Packer territory

Cannon Shell 03-27-2010 08:18 PM

Andre 3000 plays for WV?

Cannon Shell 03-27-2010 08:19 PM

This has potential to be an alltime choke...
