Terry, It certainly looked like the Bearcats were going to do just that at the beginning of the second half. The Buckeyes can be very complacement times, but managed to come back in the last twenty minutes and win big. I have my reservations with us beating Syracuse, but one never knows. Thats why they call it March Madness! Go Bucks!
Big East was 2-2 last night. I expected OSU to beat Cincy, but I really thought Marquette would beat the Gators. Louisville vs UF should be a very interesting game Master vs the Pupil.
Treefrog and Stu seem to be pulling away a little bit in the contest, but it's still pretty close over all.
Go Gators is right! I love their energy level and confidence right now. Hope they can keep both of those things going and then they have a shot to at least make the Final Four.
Some great games last night and Ohio came within a whisker of knocking North Carolina out of the tournament. Xavier got off to a terrible start and were down 20-4 and almost eliminated the Baylor Bears. The Kentucky Indiana clash was a pure offensive show. I do not see anyone beating Kentucky. They are just too deep and athletic. Good luck to eveyone if your team is still in the hunt. I do not know whether we can hold off Syracuse or not, if we get nail enough treys, we have a chance.
You're right Bill you have the highest possible points, only difference between you and Stu at this point is the Gators.
Amazing game between the Gators and Cardinals, with some red hot shooting behind the three point line. Ohio State makes it to the final four and I must admit I am shocked, considering the way we played in February. Last years team really had a shot at wining it all, but were drailed by Kentucky. The next game will not get any easier. Go Bucks!
Congratz to the Bucks. Tournaments are won by the hot team and both Ohio State and Louisville have gone enfuego at the right time...
With Sullinger on the bench for all but six minutes in the first half, these kids really gutted it out on the defensive end. Tied at half, without Sully, I thought we were in pretty good shape for the second half. Thought Matta's game plan of attacking the zone was outstanding....well done Coach, staff and kids. Final Four baby....
Buckeye Terry, I was really pleased with our poise when Sully was on the bench, in foul trouble, early in the game. Amir Williams came in when Ravenell was whistled for a couple of fouls and did an excellent job. Craft is quite a defensive whiz, and Linzelle Smith has been a very pleasant surprise with his outside scoring. While Buford has not been steady in his scoring, he has certainly helped on the boards. Whipping the Orangemen on the boards was no small feat.
Congratulations Buckeye fans. I'm a little bummed about how we lost but hey life goes on. A good run by my Gators. I still feel that Kentucky is the odds on favorite.
Gator Bill...always the gentleman even in defeat......I couldn't do it Bill...hurts too much.... :lol: BTW, OSU....did you hear about our new coach?...we own you in three years
Gator Bill, That was a tough way to lose to Louisville! I feel for you as well. Huskerman, I missed the article about your new coach. Where did she coach previously?? :lol:
Huskerman, Miles sounds like a very solid coach and probably better equipped to recruit in Nebraska than John Groce from Ohio. If Groce does end up at Illinois, then we can judge the two new coaches in the B!G TEN action. Could be interesting, but Groce will be at a disadvantage for the first couple of years. Major rebuilding job needed at Illinois!
