Go Peacocks. Fly again!

 

[blust2i3d4]

I have a feeling that we are going to see history tonight.

 

[Alsacs]

Purdue beats St. Peter’s by double digits.

Purdue has the bracket to get to their first Final Four in a while.

 

[Owens guy]

The games tonight really don’t interest me nearly as much as last nights games.

Hopefully all the games will be competitive and we see an upset or two.

 

[jncuse]

St Peters with the full line change.

What is something we have never done?

 

[cto]

Go, Providence; Go, St. Peters. Two small schools, each within two hours of me, up against P-5 behemoths. I'm just a Northeast girl who loves underdogs.

 

[Cusefan0307]

Providence is the only team left I will be able to stomach winning it all.

 

[RF2044]

Refs aren't going to allow St Peter's to compete, with the way they're calling fouls.

 

[blust2i3d4]

Providence is the only team left I will be able to stomach winning it all.

Not even St. Peters?

 

[jncuse]

What a ridiculous flop by Rupert of St.Peter's!

Jon Scheyer is now on the phone calling to see if he will join Duke via the transfer portal.

 

[jncuse]

This might be Kansas' year... unfortunately.

 

[Cusefan0307]

This might be Kansas' year... unfortunately.

Better than Duke

 

[orange79]

Better than Duke

Only if it gets vacated next year. Otherwise...

I turn it on for the last 10 minutes of the St. Peters - Purdue game, and see about 4 or 5 just terrible calls that reminded me why I find it really, really hard to enjoy college basketball these days. Purdue is not going to be allowed to lose this game.

It didn't seem that terrible in my view over the first half. But maybe I wasn't watching close enough.

 

[jncuse]

Providence working hard just to hit double digits before half time.

 

[RF2044]

It was terrible.

 

[Cusefan0307]

The officials are allowing way too much contact in these games. It’s almost impossible to play good offense.

 

[IthacaMatt]

Two fouls on bigs down low with no real hack, just hands up. When do flops ever get actually called as fouls, and then the barely moving pick on the sideline, all within about 2 minutes to take it from St. Pete's +2 to Birdoo +4.

College officiating is an absolute disaster. NBA refs have evolved to allow defenders verticality. What happened to Chet Holmgren last night is a perfect sample of what’s wrong with the way games are called.

 

[Newhouser]

The college game has to figure out that freedom of movement creates better basketball. Both these games are junk because there is too much contact.

I think I just saw Arinze in the Friar fan section.
