Go Rainbows!

Hawaii is choking but the refereeing is bad. Really really really bad

I'd get why you're upset if they were 1 and done, but they're winning.

Don't be mad at the teams making the Sweet 16. Be mad at Texas, Baylor, Oregon St., Purdue, etc.

All those teams had reasons to be in, although I never saw the Oregon St. resume. The only reason they aren't one and done is because they had a good matchup in round 1 and then avoided MSU in round 2. I have every reason to be upset watching a team in the sweet 16 that took a possible spot from my team. If SDSU had also gotten in, no matter how far they went, I wouldn't be nearly as upset even if I think Cuse didn't deserve it.

Man....I gotta go before I let all those jack's and ice along with craft beer go to my head.

That was a quick 9-0 run there

You'd obviously know better than I would, but I believe JB's time at Syracuse pre-dated the formation of the Big East by a few years.

Oh yeah...for sure. JB was at Syracuse when the basket were square. But he was part of the forming of the big east. Then him and John Thompson were like Ali and Foreman for a while.

Always nice when a dude gets clobbered on one end and sulamon gets an and 1 touch foul on the other end

So what call was it this year. You know how many teams dancing that the cuse took to school?

Syracuse didn't need a call this year they pretty much ran both their opponents out of the stadium, I was more going over how UCLA went on their run last year.

I blame myself.

Damn. Hawaii is the latest underdog to fizzle out.

Meanwhile Wisconsin brickfest part deuce has started

always funny to watch how they throw up so many bricks yet get the other team to do the same

Think we're just about out of them now

this has to be one of the most disappointing second rounds I can remember, after so much first round parity the second round has been mostly chalk

 

[BoiseStateFan27]

So much for brickfest, Wisconsin just hit several shots and already exceeded their halftime score of their first round game

Let's all hop on the UNI wagon

And in return of this terrific level of play, the league is going to reap heavy financial benefits over the next six years. CNBC currently values the level of a Sweet 16 payout for a school at $5.2 million, to be distributed evenly among the conference. Multiply that $5.2 million number by six, and you come out to right around $31.2 million, which will go to help college basketball's most storied league get even richer over the next few years.

This will pay the b1g's taxes, but hey...we'll take it.

Pretty epic meltdown by Hawaii.

They just out-psyche the other team.

They just out-psyche the other team.

Last year they convinced the Harrison twins to think they were the best players on the team when they clearly weren't.
