Surprised Texas won tbh. VTech seemed destined to be a Cinderella team this year.

Texas did a good job of shutting down the VTech 3s This was the game imo. Cut off VTech's lifeblood.
But Texas did try to make it close with the fouling and turnovers when VTech put the press on in the 2nd half.

Also the transfer PG from Minn for Texas had a really good 2nd half besides a few really dumb fouls.
I will give the staff credit for getting him to settle down 2nd half but Im not really sure if VTech put more attention on Ramey who had kept Texas scoring the first half. I will also assume the staff had them running VTech off the 3 line although I dont know for sure if this was the plan.

Definitely did not have the long period of time without being able to score that has proven so costly in other games. But they still look shaky when pressured.

Texas Tech with the 2019 throwback, 'look like the best team in the country for a night' goods which they do a few times a season. Don't see them coming anywhere close to repeating that offensive performance though imo due to the unusual amount of trapping Montana St was doing leading to wide open threes left and right. Just hope they can send Coach K and those sissy cucks from Duke packing and I'll call this season a success. They'll be playing with house money after that tbh

Hey... HEY!

At least you can confidently? call for a matchup with the two seed ahead of the games.

I think it was Jones that did the first half scoring. At one point he had 14 of their 28 points. Ramey hit shots down the stretch.

Dodged a Bama bullet thanks to Irish still rolling with St Patrick day luck.

That'll be 3 games in five nights for ND. Tech had really better not blow this in Browns fashion.

yeah I thought about that, and that really works in Tech's favor imo since they are a team that tires you out and makes you grind every possession out. Fatigue will definitely be a factor

Must be tough having a team good enough to get a 3 seed.

Baylor ref

[GAustex]

Refs quit calling fouls
Hairy man Tar Heel threw a bow and turned it all around

[Blake]

Baylor down 6 with a minute to go. Can't imagine they haven't much left in the tank at this point in ot

[Blake]

Refs went the other way calling strange ones on Baylor
