NCAA 2nd Round Games for Sun March 24

[UpstateSM]

Buffs couldn't have gotten two better looks from deep down the stretch

 

[Cheriehoop]

Surprised Colorado got such a good look.

 

[RF2044]

Colorado ) Marquette was a tremendous, competitive game.

Really fun second half.

 

[Newhouser]

Marquette’s Kolek is my favorite point guard the past 2 years. Great balance between scoring and facilitating. He really runs their offense, has great vision, unselfish but also controlled aggressiveness, a difficult balance to efficiently maintain.

Every person in our program should watch him to learn how a facilitator can impact games. We need five of him.

 

[NineOneSeven]

CO is good too.

Kolek is a great college point guard. He just knows how to play. He makes his teammates so much better.

CO is good too.

As much talent as anyone ive seen

 

[RF2044]

Utah State's head coach is Danny Sprinkle -- a formerly good guard we played in the mid-90s, when he was at Montana.

 

[RF2044]

As much talent as anyone ive seen

Agreed. Watching them play reminds me of how far we have to go to get back to this level. Need more versatile forwards.

All time stinker of a first weekend

I didn't expect Purdue to flop like last season, but I expected Utah St to at least give them a game. This is pretty impressive.

Feeling good about my Purdue pick

This year should hammer the point that the MWC is SDSU and not much else. B12 and MWC make it clear as day how bad the NET is.

Purdue looks impressive. They would give UConn a hard time.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Taking Utah state +11.5 and then hedging by taking them +18.5 after the game started

About the only team I think that can.

 

[Cusefan0307]

About the only team I think that can.

Maybe Tennessee, Houston or Iowa State. That’s the 3 others. UNC has zero chance. Gonzaga possibly.

When did the NCAA stop using Sunday afternoon for tournament games? It’s 5:00pm ET and only 2 of the 8 games have even started…..

Used to be just one standalone game at noon. Now they have two standalone back to back games. Dumb. Can’t switch channels to a better game.

USU won a game this weekend. Huge for a MWC school besides SDSU

Once Turner got involved

 

[kirbivore]

0-1 today with Purdue/USU under. I gotta see how the refs call the Duke/JMU game then I’ll live bet accordingly

 

[Forza Azzurri]

Taking Utah state +11.5 and then hedging by taking them +18.5 after the game started

Maybe I don't understand how betting works since I don't bet but how is taking them at 18.5 after taking them at 11.5 hedging and not doubling-down?

I had to flip to an NBA game because there are no games in play at the moment.

My condolences.
