2023 NCAA Basketball Tournament.

[Stakesarehigh]

great way to put it.

parity is escalating as the years go by. but I still say there is a failure of recruiting the right kids at the bigger schools, and coaching failures. sorry, not sorry. I still say with the facilities teams have like OSU, Duke, NC, and a dozen others, it's ludicrous that these teams are not having the success they should have. not saying there shouldn't be cinderellas, but the failures of the big boys should not be happening to this degree.

look at purdue. good team. but they thought the answer to everything was Edey. nope. Their terrible guards were exposed. It's a damn shame. I can't count how many teams have/had a better guard pair than the boilermakers. Teams started to notice this and exposed it.

OSU has a shit coach.

One more year and only because of the hope of landing Bronny.

(5)San Diego St (30-6) vs (6)Creighton (24-12)
(3)Kansas St (26-9) vs (9)FAU (34-3)

(2)Texas (29-8) vs (5)Miami (28-7)
(3)Gonzaga (31-5) vs (4)UConn (28-8)

Just as I predicted.

Man, this Kan St - FAU game is a good one.

End to end intensity by both teams is taking hold.

1 pt game with under 6 min to go.

 

[PhilSimms11]

(9)FAU (35-3) is Final Four bound.

 

[Picklerick 2.0]

Get wrecked Kansas state. Back to the transfer portal you fucks.

 

[Yo Tee]

A matchup in the Final Four is going to be FAU vs. Creighton or FAU vs. San Diego State. Gotta love College Basketball!

 

[DJ Fieri]

Cinderella FAU still dancing into the Final 4.

At least if my cbb team is going to suck ass, it's less painful when most everyone else's teams all lose early in the tourney as well. lol

As good as the Zags have been, they are still sort of an underdog, having Zero titles. I'm cheering for FAU and SDSU.


Gopher hockey are Frozen Four bound, btw.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

I think the team that wins this UConn - Gonzaga matchup could be end up being National champs next week.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Huge last second 3 by the Huskies to extend their lead heading into the break.

 

[PhilSimms11]

This is one of the craziest tournaments yet. With the transfer portal and one-and-dones your proverbial Dukes, Kentuckys, No Carolinas, UCLAs, etc. are no longer running away with things. The playing field has been leveled.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

It was a 7 pt Connecticut lead at halftime.
Now it's up to a 25 pt lead with 11 min to go.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Zags are just getting blown off the floor now by UConn.
Something you don't see done to them often, if at all.
Huskies are playing in another gear.
31 pt. lead.

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

UConn is going to threaten the all time 6 game margin records if this keeps up
24 pt, 15 pt, 23 pt, currently leading Gonzaga by 31

2009 North Carolina is the only team to win all 6 games by at least 12 points
1960 Ohio state won every game by at least 17 points, but it was only a 4 game pathway
1996 Kentucky won by the largest average in the 6 win era, but did have a 7 point win that UNC never did

Still a long way to go, but it is worth watching.

 

[PhilSimms11]

(4)UConn 82, (3)Gonzaga 54 (F).
DAMN.

 

[Ickey Shuffle]

Still no national Titles cream puff Gonzaga. LOL at potential Big 12 bound.

Back to the little sister conference you go.

 

[Ickey Shuffle]

Picked UCONN to win it all weeks ago. Should’ve smashed that betting line.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Kansas? You mean the team that has 16 final fours and 4 championship games since 2003?

Villanova? With their 2 national championships in the last 7 years? The only team with 2 championships since UConn in 2011 and 14?

LOL.

 

[jvett77]

Both San Diego State and Miami played so well on Friday in beating No. 1s Alabama and Houston that I see them each winning again today to make it to the final four.

 

[jvett77]

In the Creighton - San Diego State game starting shortly, we'll get to see half-brothers Adam Seiko of San Diego State going against Creighton's Arthur Kaluma (same mom). Will be interesting.
