Friday’s sweet 16 games

When the Spartans make threes like tonight, they are tough to beat. I loved how they responded with an 11-0 tune in 1:47 after LSU had their run early in the second half.

I guess by default I am rooting for Houston in the midwest. Go Purdue, Spartans, and... well I don't care much about Gonzaga vs Texas Tech.
 
The cheaters bracket games in Kansas City should be good.

They put them in one bracket so that the cheaters were not discriminated against and they can ensure one is in the final four. They all deserve each other. Surprised LSU wasn’t in that bracket too.

Those 4 coaches are all slime. Academic scandal guy Roy Williams is the best of the bunch.
Interesting enough Sampson’s issues seem to have been minor compared to what we are seeing with UNC’s academic fraud and the FBI investigation into multiple programs.

I’ve seen Houston play several times and although the they are solid, it’s still amazing to me that their record is what it is. I think they must bore teams to death until they just quit.
 
Loved seeing UNC, home of the worst academic scandal in modern times (even if the gutless NCAA didn't punish them for it) getting spanked. Now if only VaTech can hold on against Duke.
 
Don't really care about the games, but OMG that last alley oop dunk by Zion. Dude is must see TV
 
Texas Tech vs. Michigan and Kentucky vs. Houston have caused my eyes to bleed. Very hard to watch.
 
VT goes with a deep contested 3 while down by 2.

God I can’t understand end of game coaching sometimes.
What exactly did Buzz draw up in the huddle.
 
Duke gets lucky again, in that, VT missed that easy shot to tie to send it to OT.

Holy crap Houston is up 1 on KY with 2+ minutes left...

I have no problem with it but he missed it by a mile. The chance of VT winning in OT was slim.

3 number 1 seeds for the ACC, but only 2 teams make it to the Elite 8. Maybe despite the ESPN hype, the top of that league was no better than the Big 10.
 
Hard to root for Auburn or NC but I thought Auburn really put on quite a show last night. Seems like the SEC may have been the overlooked conference at this point.

Auburn is the #1 shooting 3-pointer team in the nation. They were all year and since the beginning of the tournament. Can’t overlook the 3-point line, that’s good enough to get them into the elite 8 and maybe the final four also. That said, Miss State lost to Liberty
 
Remember auburn probably should have lost that first round game. Duke is still alive because of some calls and bounces. The line between winning this losing is razor thin in this tournament, part of what makes it great.
