NCAA 1st Round Games for Thurs March 20

[LAorange44]

I hope all those people who said we can’t hang with Louisville because of our poverty NIL are taking note. I would like to think we can hang with the financial powerhouses like Creighton in the NIL space

Purdue struggling against a high seed. (Almost) An annual tradition,

The big difference is that Creighton actually has a really good head coach. We do not.

 

[blust2i3d4]

ACC sucks. And we cannot reverse the trend as B1G and SEC will get more and more money and put their football earned money to improve their basketball more. We really need to find a way to get into B1G.

 

[jncuse]

The average age of Auburn is a just a tad below 23 years old.

 

[Cuse4455]

These games today have stunk... boring and nothing close. The first 4 games were fun.

Had to check -no surprise: ALL Auburn seniors are transfers.
State of affairs we're in.

Yes. But also the covid year is going away

So while some teams will still be like BYU age wise, it will revert slightly back to the mean.

Another mean won't revert back-
Winning a championship with YOUR guys, or maybe 1-2 transfers at most in the rotation.

2 minutes into the game Quadir fires up an off balance 3. An incredulous Lappas wonders what kind of shot that was and mentions that Quadir is 3-22 from three on the season.

 

[jncuse]

Copeland a made basket, and two messy passes to start.

Plus 2 extremely questionable passes

 

[cusefan88]

The Quadir experience is maddening.

 

[NC_Orange]

“you never know what you’re going to get with Quadir”

Don’t we know it.

 

[jncuse]

Plus 2 extremely questionable passes

I'm not sure if the first one was his fault. It seemed like the guy in the post was right there and just let it go by.

I was going to go and check at the timeout. Then I decided it was not worth my time, because it would be at best,2 really bad plays by the first TV Timeout instead of 3. Neither is good.

To be fair, another guard passed to him with about 2.5 seconds left on the shot clock.

I didn't see the shot (only the two passes) but that is relevant info.

 

[swish7]

Watching Q & McNeese St.
High energy.
Big swag. Looking tough.
Fundamentally unsound play. Ole D. Off balanced clanking 3s.
But, yes, he's dancing.

Dancing & advancing

 

[kingtidge]

Clemson dropping to McNeese would be a disaster for the ACC.

 

[JustPherU]

Clemson looks like they are half asleep and the Chef just picked up his 2nd foul.

 

[SUFaninNJ]

Clemson dropping to McNeese would be a disaster for the ACC.

In Clemson's defense, the game isn't even halfway through the first half yet.

 

[jncuse]

Auburn only up 1, near halftime against Alabama St.

Based on KP only, the #1's are historically strong this year, so wasn't sure we would get any game where the #16 was within a handful at the half.

 

[jncuse]

Garcia from McNeese takes some crazy shots from around FT area.

 

[swish7]

Goes to the bench. Team goes on a run.

 

[HyattsCuse]

This man/zone defense McNeese is playing has Clemson stumped. I don’t think I’ve seen Clemson look so bad.
