NCAA 2nd Round Games for March 20

[CardiacCuse]

wow villanova got a lot better from the beginning of the season...they look very dangerous

SU played them in a nailbiter and couldve won and they are legit title contenders, imo

c'est la vie...

B1G is so bad this year. There might be only Michigan advancing to Sweet 16.

non conference games are overweighted big time in the current rankings formulas


in this era of extreme volatilty in terms of rosters,...teams change A LOT from november to march...

acc did poorly in out of conference but so far has outperformed their metrics, for example

 

[orange79]

That was horrible. Ultimately didn't affect the game, but don't call crap like that which has no impact on the game, unless it's so far over the line you can't ignore it. That does not fit that description.

 

[CardiacCuse]

As we know from last year, you play Houston you better put your big boy pants on. Most teams can't deal with their intensity.

wow houston has s9me big injuries to key players...coulda been a legit contender if they had everyone

In the old days, most players played four years. In the current system, the best players only play for one or two years then go pro. That means each early season, many schools need to start from the scratch. The team chemistry is not there. The real team will only come out in January.

Villanova’s players are so in sync with each other. They never seem rushed. They have a style of play that they follow to a tee. Gillespie is the best point guard in the country. The more you watch this kid the better you understand how good he is. He is the closet to having a coach on the floor.

 

[MikeSU02]

Did I hear that right? The kid from OSU has had THREE concussions in a 12 month period????

Wow.

 

[MikeSU02]

Glad that kid isn't coming back for OSU today. If he has his fourth concussion in 12 months, he probably shouldn't be doing much of anything.

Wow.

Scary.

I wouldn’t call that game a nailbiter

 

[hoopsupstate]

The officials are calling the Villanova and OSU game the way your supposed too. They’re letting them play, but are calling fouls where the defense impedes the offensive player.

 

[jncuse]

My under of 134.5 is in jeopardy.
Give up you buckeye idiots!

 

[STEVEHOLT]

He plays bball like he's on a coke bender.

He does seem to be playing under the influence of something

 

[kirbivore]

That's NOT T worthy.

That BS gave me rage flashbacks to T-Robs tech in 2005 tournament

 

[kirbivore]

We are all Spartans.

 

[hoopsupstate]

The Big 10 is 0-2 today and about to go 0-3. I can’t see MSU beating Duke.

 

[bpo57]

You can tell Izzo is pushing the pace. He knows Duke has a depth problem as they tend to run out of gas late in each half.

The Big 10 is 0-2 today and about to go 0-3. I can’t see MSU beating Duke.

I like Sparty to win this one outright.

They've got a point guard that can control the pace. It makes all the difference in college ball.

 

[hoopsupstate]

Duke should go zone and watch Izzo crap his pants.

 

[goofnoff]

We are all Spartans.

I don't like Izzo either.

 

[UpstateSM]

Sparty controlling the half court on both ends Dook is just making bs at the end of the clock

 

[jncuse]

That's good news and bad news at the same time.

 

[CardiacCuse]

I wouldn’t call that game a nailbiter

orange up with 12 minutes to go then total collapse...it was closer than the scoreline indicated, imo

but yeah not a nailbiter, youre right

 

[jncuse]

Michigan St pushing back against Duke.
The black and white will soon be pushing back against Michigan St.
