What a start....

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

If Pacific wins all I gotta say is goodbye cruel world...

[SoCalSpursFan]

Seton Hall loses to the "Shockers".

Hmmm.

[Horry For 3!]

If Pacific wins all I gotta say is goodbye cruel world...
Same with me, I have Boston College in Final Four in every bracket


So far i'm 2 for 2, hopefully BC plays like they should and wins in OT

Fuck Yes! Double OT! BC has the momentum now

[SoCalSpursFan]

[Horry For 3!]

Lets go BC! Don't let me down!

[MannyIsGod]

Actually, I picked Seaton Hall too. So I'm 0-2 staring down the barrel of an 0-3 start.

Holy shit, I actually did pick Pacific. Godamnit, stop scoring BC!!!

That Marquette-Alabama game should be good.

I remember when Wade played for Marquette in the tourney, he was owning everyone and now he owns in the NBA. I probably knew more about Wade than most people as I watched Marquette a lot. Regular season then during the tourney.

It was the easiest upset pick. Right when I saw it was UW-MIL I picked them over OU.

You must of not watched last year, they made it to the Sweet 16 and almost beat Illinois.

We knew about Wade here in Wisconsin before the tourney.

Another name to remember for down the road is Wes Matthews. Freshman for Marquette. He will be something in a few years.

For all of us with short memories, they won the national title what, five years ago? UT has all the talent in the world and lollygags around with the Ivy League school. Fuck, the Penn Quakers are hanging with the University of Texas! We're not taking the Wonderlic at halftime!

Right now for me anyways, Billy G > Rick Barnes.

Three years ago. I've always hated Rick Barnes, his zone defense is stupid, and his offensive strategy is feeble. Add to the fact that we still have no point guard, and Gibson is the biggest suckass of all time, lamarcus not demanding the ball, and you have feeble feeble offensive strategy.

Luckily PJ is honing his energy for a monstrous offensive 2nd half.

Two seeds don't struggle on a virtual home floor against Penn. I completely agree that PJ's about to go off, but this laissez-faire attitude makes it look like the team wants to catch SXSW or something. We'll win this one, but the Horns ain't even an Elite Eight team right now. Let's just hope some miracle occurs before we get stuck against a ACC school like NC State that'll make the team look foolish.

C'mon PJ!

[Cant_Be_Faded]

We came into tournament play playing average and came into ncaa tourny play playing shitty

but yeah, i forgot to add the fact that this is a virtual homecourt
however
texas fans arent half as rowdy as those milkmen got aggie fans when the aggies played

Abrams time. He's about to become a hometown hero.

This is potentially LaMarcus' last game. He has to play good too, because he knows millions are riding on the line.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

the announcers just said

"the most reliable guard for texas comes to life"

what an ignorant stupid stupid moronic asshole statement
Does he even know who Paulino is??!?!?!?

daniel gibson is more unreliable than fucking abrams

abrams is a freshman thats his excuse
what the fuck is gibson's?
even though he probably just won the game for us, i hate gibson with such a strong passion

god damn i hate gibson

horry for three has commented more about the oral roberts game than about the texas game

[j-6]

These guys from Penn suck. All they do is switch out underneath and try to put the pickman out on the perimeter - and then they miss repeatedly from outside. Texas has like 4 of the top 150 players in the nation and Penn has five guys who will be CEO's before they're forty. There is no reason for this game to be even close...and it is.

I'm tired of mediocre basketball from All-World players. In the tourney, a bunch of guys that can play together well from a small school (or mediocre major-conf squads, College Station) can beat you if you don't play like there's a chance you're leaving Dallas tomorrow. The Horns need to act like it or I have to become an A&M fan for the rest of the tournament. And I am NOT looking forward to that.

[Horry For 3!]

Damn wtf. Do I need to fucking put on a Texas jersey so they can break a full court pressure and get out of a trap.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

j-6, i have recently developed a theory

my friends are tired of hearing me say this, and i've only said this once or twice on this board, so i'll say it again now


texas recruits athletes
they don't recruit characters

they get amazing atheltes with ridiculous upside, but its so much of this that they also have no character, no will, no drive, no work ethic

my roomates best friend saw ramonce taylor risking injury against a Gregory pack of scrubs only a week before the rose bowl

we have the talent
but not the character
its the new face of texas, i guess we have to get used to it

Exactly. We get the guys with all of the talent but none of the drive. They look at the chance to be the coolest guys in the greatest college town in the US and think winning'll be a breeze. They coast and wait for their talent to bail them out.

Schools like A&M get the guys who were good players, not eye-popping talent. And in basketball, only five guys are on the floor so there's not too big of a chance to cover fuck-ups. In other words, if you are in condition and you hustle 100% of the time you're on the floor, you can beat the Jayhawks and the Buckeyes (or the Orange) with lesser talent.

That's why Duke is Duke. Sure, they lose sometimes, but doesn't everybody? But they don't slouch around. They are in your face on every possession. And they're never out of position. And they've been that way since before Danny Ferry played there.

UT needs to either get more character or thug it up a bit before they deserve some swagger. Just waiting until the last ninety seconds to close out the University of Pennsylvania (that's not Penn State, this is a school that hoops with Brown and Yale) is just way too lukewarm. As I said earlier, an ACC team will kick our ass if we play like this on Sunday.

[Jimcs50]

Thats about the dumbest fucking thing I have ever heard. What team just won the national championship? What team went to the final 4. Now tell me which team can barely beat the likes of texas st and has 1 tourney win in the past 25 years? Your friends are tired of hearing you say it because you're a moron.

[j-6]

Ice, nothing personal, but I don't think you watched very much Longhorn basketball during the regular season.

If you did, you'd completely understand my frustration with UT putting lesser teams away. The Horns aren't going to get past the UConns and the 'Novas (or the Dukes possibly next weekend) of the world playing like this. The killer instinct that we had the two years prior to that shitty loss to Nevada in '05 isn't there anymore despite this being a more talented team that the TJ squads.

In the last five years, the Horns have been seeded 6th, 1st, 3rd, 8th, and now 2nd. People forget that we were favored, and were a better seed, in our final four loss to Carmelo and eventual champ Syracuse.

This is shaping up to be like the '04 run. Beat the Ivy school in Round One, try and take out the underacheiving ACC school (NC State lost four straight before beating Cal) in Round Two, and then match up against a team like West Virginia that we should run out of the gym, but they're known, like Xavier, for sticking around in the tourney. If UT gets past them, it's probably a date full of revenge with the Dookies.

I just hope they can assuage my fears and stomp the Wolfpack by twenty.

[IcemanCometh]

The Horns aren't going to get past the UConns and the 'Novas (or the Dukes possibly next weekend) of the world playing like this.

who didn't watch horn basketball this year? you do know we beat villanova already.

[Horry For 3!]

How come no one picked Bradley to win? They are a solid team.

[Horry For 3!]

Damn, this North Carolina-George Mason game is close

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

God Damn!

I don't even care that my brackets are screwed up. I love seeing close games and upsets!

[Horry For 3!]

North Carolina lost a close one :depressed

[Horry For 3!]

North Carolina will be back and stronger than ever next year

[j-6]

who didn't watch horn basketball this year? you do know we beat villanova already.

Yeah, at home in the middle of January, two weeks after we beat Memphis in the Pyramid.

[Horry For 3!]

Damn, Uconn only up by 2 over Kentucky with 3 mins to go

Uconn better not fuck it up!

[Low End Specialist]

Man, that was such an anticlimactic way to end this season. Next year UNC will own the ACC and hopefully get a higher seed and a region without these wacky mid american team. Word is bond.

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

Watch out now...NW State seems to be closing the gap.

Go Southland!

[Horry For 3!]

Watch out now...NW State seems to be closing the gap.

Go Southland!
I forgot Northwestern State was in the Southland conference.

Texas State is horrible at basketball. Hopefully they have a good football season next year so I can watch some games.

Well, now that the Nutt-house is officially closed, I'm hoping that the 'Cats can convince players to stay on and not recruit fucking idiots.

The women are going to kick-ass next season. Bank on it.

[Horry For 3!]

UCONN beat Kentucky by 4


UCONN vs Washington

[Horry For 3!]

Wichita St vs George Mason should be an interesting match up, a 7 vs 11

[Cant_Be_Faded]

AJ is distributing like a champ

[Horry For 3!]

Texas not making shots or playing defense now

[Horry For 3!]

Paulino fucking sucks at traps

[Horry For 3!]

All you have to do is trap Paulino and he will crumble

[Cant_Be_Faded]

yeah gibson started a turnover trend

[Horry For 3!]

Abrams redeemed himself with the turnover, 3 and 1

[Cant_Be_Faded]

AJ's turnovers always look the same

[Horry For 3!]

AJ's turnovers always look the same
Yeah, he mishandles a dribble and turnover

[Horry For 3!]

Texas up by 5 at half-time 38-33

[Horry For 3!]

If they don't step-up their D and execute on O then it won't be good.


They were doing bad ass at the beginning then fell off and turned it over too much.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Gibson had his 11 points all in the beginning, so he's done for the day
hence the turnover festival

[Horry For 3!]

He only had 2 turnovers, should be only 1, LaMarcus couldn't catch an easy pass

[Horry For 3!]

I don't know what is up with LaMarcus but he isn't catching passes that good today as he ususally does

[Cant_Be_Faded]

he also looks tired
slow to get back on D

[Oscar DeLa]

I don't know what it is but the announcers are making this game seem like the greatest college bball game of all time!, its like NCState has cut it to five, OHHHHHHHHH MMMMYYYYYYYYYY

[Horry For 3!]

Also, Gibson started up the game and set the tempo, once Rick Barnes took him out, they started to suck

[Horry For 3!]

he also looks tired
slow to get back on D
On turnovers by other people, Gibson was the first to get back? :lol

[Horry For 3!]

I find it funny that you find any way to make Gibson look bad

[j-6]

#13 and #11 are killing us. It's not really PJ's fault, but they're playing both inside and outside and it's exposing him for what he is - a 6'5" post and rebounder. I'm not worried about #33 'cause he's taking on LaMarcus in that 1-3-1 NC State's running.

This'll be close, but even if the Wolfpack goes ten deep I don't think they can keep up this pace, especially if the threes keep falling, but they've got to take better care of the ball. Too many breakaways. I might not be allowed to bitch about UT's backcourt all week if they keep bombing away like this, though. Who'd have thought that UT would have almost forty at the half when PJ and LaMarcus combined have like what, ten?

[Horry For 3!]

Get in the hole you damn ball! Keeps goin in n out for Texas.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Gibson had his 11 points all in the beginning, so he's done for the day

every time that white dude has it against lamarcus i am praying to god he shoots it

he's gotten blocked, what, three times already? :lmao

[Horry For 3!]

x10000
He has missed some shots but he has gotten people invovled. 4 asts

[Cant_Be_Faded]

AJ's release is lightning quick
when this kid puts on a few more pounds of muthle and builds a new level of confidence and power....he's gonna be bad fucking ass
the second coming of tj ford, but with a better three ball

[mookie2001]

as long as he huthles

Texas shall regulate upon West Virginia once more, keeping its chances for the TitleTrifecta alive

I'll be a bayou bengal fan tommorrow, but im sure PJ will be out for blood against duke

[Cant_Be_Faded]

^^Damn skippy

PJ has shown leadership, and a will to take over the fucking game when his team needs it lately

he will not let us lose to those fucking duke bitches

[alamo50]

Because of the Fantasy League I can't go to bed before The Catfight is over!
Gotto keep track of my picks!

Go Arizona!

DAMN I AM SO HOOKED ON FANTASY BBALL, I LOVE IT!

By the way, j-6's favorite Longhorn Dion Dowell just entered the game.

Anyway, it scares me that if I recall, UT turned the ball over against the Pittsnogles almost thirty times back in November or whenever they played. And that was at Erwin.

I'm with you on the Bayou Bengal Bandwagon. I might even get drunk and obnoxious watching them play the Dookies, 'cause I know for a fact that UT can beat the Tigers.

I am scared of the Redicks. I may never hear the end of it from my ACC friends - getting a beatdown by the Devils twice in the same season when we have more NBA talent than they do.

Well, Allen Ray put the game away on freethrows.
See ya next year on my fantasy squad Shakur?
Now I still got 3 players of mine within the Final 16.

:hat

[ALVAREZ6]

Allan Ray is the man, he went crazy today.


Arizona could have easily won that game considering they grabbed like 50 offensive boards, it seemed like Arizona was on offense for 3/4 of the game.

[Horry For 3!]

I only got 1 wrong in pick 'em today and it was my favorite team, North Carolina :depressed

[Cant_Be_Faded]

AJ Abrams. Point Guard of the future.

All he needs is a new level of confidence and power. He's gonna be my 2nd favorite longhorn next season.


I find it funny that you find any way to make Gibson look bad

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Daniel Gibson had 9 (yes NINE) turnovers last time we played West Virginia.

[SoCalSpursFan]

All 4 1 seeds still in it, thats so good.

an all 1 seed final four would be crazy, although I know it prob wont happen...

[SoCalSpursFan]

Finally! Game time.

[Horry For 3!]

Finally! Game time.
I'll miss most the games starting at 6 cause I have class :depressed

[JoeChalupa]

LSU is looking good...........damnit.

[Horry For 3!]

i take it you go to school
Yeah, I am a Soph in College

[Horry For 3!]

I picked Duke to win since I had them getting beat in the Elite 8 but I wouldn't care if they lost tonight against LSU.

As I predicted them to get knocked out in either the Sweet 16 or Elite 8

[Dre_7]

I have LSU in the final game. So they better hold on!

[JoeChalupa]

I have Duke winning this one.

I can't believe LSU's didn't score for 4 minutes and Duke couldn't take advantage.

Go Duke!!!

[JoeChalupa]

Yeah baby!!!!

[Horry For 3!]

I picked Duke but I'd like to see them lose. Nothing better for a Tarheels fan to see them lose :)

[JoeChalupa]

I need the help since my other brackets took a beating.

I had both LSU and Duke in this game so I'm going for Duke and since North Carolina sucked I want Duke to win.

[JoeChalupa]

Come on!

[Horry For 3!]

Both Williams and Davis have 4 fouls, also Tyrus Thomas has 4 as well

[JoeChalupa]

I'm toast

[Dre_7]

LSU Bitches!!!!!!!!

Just have to make FTs!!!!

[Dre_7]

BIG BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:elephant :elephant :elephant :elephant :elephant :elephant :elephant

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Duke are such big stinky pussies, Leinart style

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Chances of a Texas Trifecta just went up 99%

[Dre_7]

LSU in the final game!!! My once decimated bracket looks good again!!!

[hussker]
