Sweet Sixteen: Day Two (Fri.)

[TrollyMcTroller]

I think the southwest airline chick looks like the late Brittany Murphy

I can see it.

 

[Vitamike]

By the way, these two games suck. Seriously, awful basketball.

At least for Zags v UCLA...

It's a very poor venue choice for a Sweet 16 Game much less ANY Tournament game.

Very poor venue choice for a Sweet 16 Game.

AZ fans are just glad it's not in Anaheim, although oddly LA hasn't been great for us either. Put it in Vegas is my vote.

 

[podsox]

everything about the ville-nc st game screams boring so far

 

[TrollyMcTroller]

Vern cracking me up right now. He apparently has to tolerance for any of the clock malfunctions.

 

[OregonDucks]

How did UCLA get lucky and avoid having to continue to wear those Adidas fanny pack uniforms?

Except for those last 3 possessions.

They heard you. Holy shit those last 30 seconds of the half were pretty wild.

ya it's just something about the announce team and the arena that makes everything seem so dull

I know...unfortunately these football fields are what we get from sweet 16 on....damn these fields are invading the tournament, soon the original round 1 will be played in cowboy stadium.

 

[Texas Jefe]

finally, a little juice in this game.

Just cant get into the Gonzaga/Ucla game yet as well, maybe 2nd half will be better

 

[TrollyMcTroller]

So yeah... tail end of UL/NCSU was pretty damn good.

But it has not been very exciting otherwise.

They ought to play these games in real, fun, basketball arenas. Isnt all the money made by TV anyway? Who cares if it's just an college basketball arena.

 

[The Derski]

Second half looking much better for UCLa

I wish.


I miss the days when earlier round games were played in college arenas and they didn't cover up the courts with a bland basic ncaa logo and feel.

 

[The Derski]

Agree about the college arenas until the final four.

 

[OregonDucks]

CBS needs to hire Gus Johnson from March-April. A one month contract.

 

[The Derski]

Although I have to say Staples Center atmosphere hasn't been that bad imo.

 

[OregonDucks]

Because it's an nba arena being compared to football stadiums.

I'll tske nba arenas for final 4 and finals over football stadiums

 

[The Derski]

They need football stadiums fOr the final four. Last year they had 80,000 fans at the title game.
