All those calls versus Indiana were 100% legitimate

There was not one bad call

Indiana made about 4 bonehead obvious foul calls in the first 2 minutes

The refs actually missed a few more, it could have been worse.

Cmon dude. I'm not into blaming the refs. Still, I'm pretty sure Thomas Bryant's chase down blocks were legit.

And THAT would also be bullshit. The NCAA at-large bids always equalize these conferences when they should award excellence.

The ACC wasn't considered that good.....cause we ate each other alive in conf play.

Yea, but they had a good conference record and THAT should have been good enough. The ACC is the premier basketball conference and these games are proving it. Miami and Duke could have played better, but all in all, the ACC is doing it.

Conference record is pretty meaningless with the unbalanced conference schedules. Especially in the case of the ACC with 15 teams. Va Tech didn't deserve a bid.

I know. The Big 12 was supposed to be the BEST conference? Where are they without Kansas? You would think that if that conference was so damn competitive that somebody, hell anybody else would win the Big 12 Title other than Kansas wouldn't you?

All 8 games in the Sweet 16 were chalk.

In the women's tournament, all 4 Sweet 16 games tonight were upsets.

What is the world coming to?

I wish the ACC was split into divisions like the football teams are so there is a round robin season instead of the staggered system they use now. Hokies may not have been deserving of a bid. But they did beat UVA.

VaTech should have been in the big dance. Buzz got screwed

Haha no way we were going to get in this year. A bunch of bad losses early in the year.

Their RPI sucked. Gotta quit playing shitty OOC.

I'm not sure what was with the last 2 or 3 seasons and our OOC. Clearly we sucked last year and the year before, but that's not gonna fly going forward.


I think we're a tourney team next year.
