Day 3 NCAA Thread

[jdubs30]

VCU/Michigan at 12:15.

MSU/Memphis at 2:45.

I think VCU/Michigan might be the best game of the tournament. UM's great guard play vs. Shaka's constant pressure, should be a fun one.

UM blows out VCU by 15.

Pressin style worked well vs Akron (dismissed point uard). A team miscast as a 12.

Must be nice to have a home game as a 4 seed

 

[jncuse]

Round of 32 will be excellent. Every top 4 seed will really be tested,

OK.. maybe just a win by UM.

Michigan already looks gasses and VCu subs 5 guys might be a long day for mishitgan.

Valid point. UM players probably like opportunity to finally play up tempo... but it could bite em.

Day 3 of the tourney and Georgetwon still sucks... and is no longer in the tourney

 

[jdubs30]

So glad VCU isn't in our bracket.

I'm going with VCU in a close one, unless Robinson has a a big game.

Not impressed by VCU at all so far. Theyre just playing spastic basketball.

I just started watching about 10 minutes ago, but I would agree from what I've seen thus far.

Should have picked UM, so many rules to apply in games like this though.

Always knock Michigan out early.
Never knock out a decent power conference team that plays like a mid-major against a mid-major.

Dammit. Michigan might roll 'em.

UM shooting well. Curious to see if they have legs in the 2nd half though.

Cal is the days trendy upset pick over Cuse ... mine is Colorado State over Louisville

Wow - that's a bold pick.

I'm going with Oregon over St. Louis.

UM smart too play two points -- Burke may be less tired at end.

VCU sucks...how do you not convert that. Pass the ball - it's 4 on 1.

I even put some ching down on it happening ... bold or stupid?

 

[jncuse]

UM needs to convert on breaks. VCU allows easy baskets early.

 

[iommi]

VCU is missing a lot of easy looks...I think Michigan is the better team but if VCU's shots start falling in the 2nd half...

I've got Butler over Marquette

UM should have a bigger lead given how the teams are shooting. UM also getting alot of run outs at the moment

 

[Ghost]

VCU's misses BADLY every shot...and they're open looks mostly.

 

[ImperialOrange]

VCU doesn't even look for 3's. Wonder if that's by design or due to poor shooting ability?

Bad shooting. Totally relies on D to create offence.
