Thursday's NCAA tourney games discussion thread

[BillyC80]

Zags got a good scare. Could be an interesting showdown with OSU next round...

 

[shields]

Seton Hall game is going to be very interesting.

 

[ClassOf02]

Ohio State and SD State combine for 41 attempted 3s........in the first half.

 

[hoquat63]

Announcer said OSU in Big12

 

[PatrickRU92]

There is no "D" in "NC State"

 

[B0ski]

So many punks on the shoe

 

[bac2therac]

Come on Loyola...get this....down 3 with 1:49

 

[bac2therac]

tied up.

Ohio State and SD State combine for 41 attempted 3s........in the first half.

not a good sign for OSU that that SDSt was able to match them, dont have a good feeling about that one

 

[bac2therac]

Loyola down 2 going to line to tie it....26 seconds

 

[bac2therac]

oh my after making just one of 2 Loyola forces turnover and will have the ball and can hold for last shot

so this guy Towns is from Edison played at FDU and then transferred to Loyola

 

[bac2therac]

ugh Loyola fouled on 2nd putback and no call..bs

 

[rutgersguy1]

We have our first buzzer beater!!! Under review to see if any time left.

 

[bac2therac]

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh did you see that....shot of the tourney......3 from a few feet back dead on by Loyola after the missed one and one by Miami


whoop there it is...cinderella

 

[bac2therac]

its amazing how fortunes can change in seconds

its also amazing how Miami didnt take care of the little things that could have won them the game late

but sometimes teams are just destined to win a game...that was Loyola today

 

[knightfan7]

Had Miami but never sad when an ACC team loses.

That was one looooong 3.

 

[Plum Street]

Loyola great shot!

 

[bac2therac]

Sister Jean....98 years old..great story...I have them in Sweet 16 in one of my brackets

Townes also played at one time at Immaculata HS.

I know it was a long 3 but god damn, there was 1.7 left on the clock when he shot that, you HAVE TO be all over him. That was a cleannnn look.

this game is a classic type of seton hall blowing it at the end

 

[bac2therac]

holy moly...OSU just up 10 and now its 4 in the blink of an eye.....teams have shot a combined 65 three pointers.. only around 3 minutes left

yeah thats crazy Miami guy allowed him to step into that too, I think they expected a pass to the paint

Im rooting for all the big ten teams this post season. Which i didnt do in the football post season

 

[bac2therac]

osu is melting down...there defense is terrible and they are just chucking up 3s on offense, you cannot win like that...but its their defense that is the problem..they are not playing like a big ten school

 

[bac2therac]

they made up 10 points in 2 minutes but bam...OSU hits a 3 and one...

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

Prior to that 4 point play, sdsu was hanging in the lane letting tOsu take 3’s

 

[bac2therac]

what was that..why shoot a 3 with a full shot clock...but bailed out by another foul on 3...three more foul shots but geez thats not how you are suppose to play

 

[bac2therac]

this was literally a living by the 3 dying by the 3 kinda game.

 

[bac2therac]

Smurf lead down to 5

 

[bac2therac]

wow OSU coach tweaked media and pundits for not picking them in this game...used it for motivation

 

[mikebal9]

this was literally a living by the 3 dying by the 3 kinda game.

Figuratively

 

[StevieB160]

wow OSU coach tweaked media and pundits for not picking them in this game...used it for motivation

How can you leave us hanging not knowing how many brackets you picked Ohio State in?

 

[bac2therac]

on my money ones..all of them

 

[bac2therac]

shu moves on..had them too..might be the first time ever I went 8-0 on the first afternoon of games

overall one upset and alot of close games.....hoping for a repeat tonight...go San Diego State

 

[NewJerseyHawk]

Good 1st half today....as much as people talk about seedings, a lot of today was tailor made for TV on Saturday and Sunday....Ohio State stayed the course.

Loyola IL could have given a lot of teams problems today....looking back on the win at Florida was a real signal that they werent a fluke...

 

[King of S]

Desi Rod is healthy enough. Is he a good enough team mate or passer? Yet to be seen if this whole team can play together long enough to win a game. I watch them and think they individually have talent, but rarely play as a team.

I predict a loss.

Desi Rodriguez look like he's healthy. Should interesting against Kansas.
