A&M bitchslapped UNC in Charlotte, and don't even bother showing up for the Sweet 16.

Loyola-Chicago is the first team in the elite 8

who saw that coming?

Love watching that team play

I didn't actually see the game but when I watch Loyola play I just absolutely can not comprehend what possibly could have happened for us to beat them by 34 back in December...makes no sense

From what I read they haven't lost a gm this yr when their starting 5 played. Maybe some guys sat? Boise looked really good early in the yr too

You like FSU? I don't.

Hell no. But they beat Xavier

 

[SJ76]

Anyone else see that Mission From God sign w/ the Blues Brothers that Loyola fan had?

Hell yeah. Great movie

Hmmm looking back it looks like everyone played for them, Hutchinson who was almost our entire team at times only played 17 minutes and got only 2 points....just to make this even more bizarre

We did start out strong and regressed down the stretch, a sad reminder that we could have been pretty good this year had we kept playing well all year...except at this point I'd like just to see one just one ncaa tournament win

Lol. I did take FSU and the money line for $10 I believe.


Need to get the stack back

Was it finals week? At Boise or neutral court?

Gonna go stir the Hornets Nest in the PF.....be back in a little bit.

And once again the NCAA committee looks like fools. Loyola at 28-5 would have not been in the tournament without winning their conference tournament even though they won the MVC regular season. It has already been determined that they would have been the first team out, probably in favor of a Power Five team with 13 losses.
Probably, Michigan will not look past them as Miami and Tennessee did.
They will probably be gone by Sunday, but the ability to recruit in Chicago has grown exponentially. Players from Chicago recruited by big schools who don't feel they will start as freshman will consider Loyola. Helps DePaul also.

You are way too objective to be a supporter of P5 schools. Even though you could lose your country club card in being objective, I applaud you. You are 100% correct.

Worst part is we were a 4 seed, I just noticed the NIT is down to the final 4 and that it was all 4 seeds except for our region. We were the only dadburn 4 seed to not make it!

We did have to play Washington on the road because we were hosting the NCAA tournament. How exactly did Washington manage to plummet to a 5 seed in the NIT??? I last checked back when we were on the bubble and Washington was in a rather comfortable spot at the time

It was at Boise, and to correct from earlier it was actually at the end of November

Loyola will play Kentucky not Michigan.


And Miami and Tennessee didn't look past Loyola. Loyola just played smart and solid D, hit big shots. I watched both games in Dallas. Miami and Tennessee were loaded with big athletes too

Ok I C. On the road in November can be tough

 

[BoiseStateFan27]

That and likely in general both teams went completely different directions as the year went on

they got better we got worse

Kentucky full of freshman
