Arkansas doesn't have the defense to hang with UNC...

They are terrible and I could not dislike a team more. Complete thugs. Last game with Kentucky was shameful. I hope UNC wins by 40

Kansas is retarded.

Their last 5 possessions have been nothing but abject stupidity.

Only a Lucas put back has kept it from being a total trainwreck.

Not a fan of that. I thought the rule was "Inside the arc". Having the back of 1 heel on the line is not inside. Plus terrible that it was reversed from an official up top. No way he saw that. Just doesn't seem to be in the spirit of the rule

According to the rule it is considered in the circle.

but the circle itself is against the spirit of basketball, so they should get rid of it.

It's fine. I get the idea that you can't stand under the basket. I just don't the idea that 98% of the guy is outside and they reverse the call. It's hard enough to play defense.

It's truly an awful and arbitrary concept.

All it does is reward out of control drives..like Ward's.

If anything they should be discouraging that type of play.

That's one way to look at it....

I'd say this says more about Kansas than MSU.

Kansas isn't that good this year. Bad ass backcourt, but that front line is nothing to fear. Mason is just a stud. He isn't their best player, but he is their MVP. Kid just knows how to win

Clerly, Kansas' play is smoother and more efficient. But, I think it's interesting that Kansas can't separate from State more than a few points. And, Jackson just picked up his third foul.

They're stupid.

And their defense isn't good enough (based on historical statistical profiles of past champs).

Mason being a POY candidate just shows what a weak field it is. Amazing how good of a draft this is going to be when Mason is arguably the best player in college.

TV just said Wisconsin has 13 consecutive tourney wins. I am thinking that isn't right

The amount of stupid passes and shots that Kansas takes is absurd.

Mason and Graham took like 5 straight stupid shots to let MSU back in it.

Draft isn't that bad. Big difference in potential between a freshmen and a senior. Mason is just a very good 4th year player. The freshmen that get drafted haven't learned the game yet.

Just saying that we've seen a lot of young guys win it.

Mason is going to be lucky to play in the NBA
