NCAA Sweet Sixteen Games Thread for Thurs Mar 26

Impressive. Officials allowed Houston to commit like 12 obvious fouls on one defensive possession.
Should be fun to watch this one. Lol

Apparently the Texas v Purdue officials are somehow now doing the Illinois game...a stupid review for no reason already.

They get away with murder because they foul so much

2 total points in almost 4 minutes.

The dude smashing Mirovic's face in the open court was a pretty amazing no call.

I think even Sampson yelled at the officials for missing that one lol

Arizona may or may not blow out Arkansas, but both teams are playing with passion. Some serious play making.

Acuff is settling for too many 3’s. Gotta attack the basket, that’s where he’s most dangerous

 

[Newhouser]

Inopportune time for Hoiberg to try his new “pull one guy off the floor for no goddam reason” defensive scheme.

Yeah how does that happen?

Feels like Illinois missed an opportunity to be up bigger early

 

[MSOrange]

This Houston-Illinois game is quite the opposite of Iowa-Nebraska with offense.

Houston with their standard inability to score . Defense is their only way to win

21-14.. bears lead the Texans

Last time Iowa made the final four they ended Louie n Bouie’s careers on their journey there with JB getting that huge T that totally changed the game.

And yes, I’m still pi$$ed about that game.

I was there. Sophomore year in college. My dad offered spring break. I asked him to take me the the SU tournament game.

I think you mean they came to play

Pretty sure the whole Houston gets 5 fouls for every one called against them is screwing Illinois in this one!

They got a foul a couple seconds before this one below - so it was given as a freebie!

Zona with 54 points in the 1st half. 67% from the field. Playing like a National Championship team.

8 points more than Illinois and Houston combined for in the first half of their game. LOL

Any comments on Mashburn's attire?

I have no idea what he's doing! Is it a bomber jacket a track jacket? I can't figure out what he's going for. That being said, his commentary is pretty good - but he seems dressed for a casual night out at one of the 837 Outback Steakhouses he owns!

Thank goodness the officials have decided to take a hardline stance against Illinois' physical play to start the second half.

This is bizarro world officiating.

He's definitely my favorite guy of the Jalen Rose group.

By far.

Pearl being the worst.

Pearl making his comment earlier that was something like, "lots of great coaches out of jobs because of stuff like that. Coaches like me." He sure does love himself.
