OT - NCAA Tourney Talk

[Verdad]

@Verdad and @Walter is there an F U feedback option? Asking for a friend…

Any response that include a “U” is appropriate

FAU! FAU! FAU!

This tournament has been coocoo bananas.

Would love to see an FAU vs San Diego State national semi

Sorry that my K-State Wildcats couldn't continue their run....FAU really killed them off the boards to make up for all their turnovers. And Johnson's foul troubles didn't help in getting Nowell some support at the offensive end.

Still, quite a season for a first-year head coach with only 2 returning players! We can only dream of replicating their year with whomever our new coach will be!

Would love to see us beat KE to the tourney!

The FAU Owls and the top 10 most amazing runs to the men's Final Four

The 10 unlikeliest Final Four runs since the NCAA tournament expanded in 1985. Where does Florida Atlantic rank?

I like that we are on here... but as #2

Zags looked cooked. They might have left it all on the floor against UCLA.

First time since the field expanded in 1979 that no No. 1 seeds have made it to the Elite 8.

Vegas is having a ball with this.....

Gotta admit I wasn't a fan of the foul call there. Yes a foul is a foul at anytime, but kind of ticky tack tbh

 

[illayin]

nah the dude had an easy floater if the Creighton guy didn't push him in his side... massively affected his ability to make a shot on a great look that he earned. not a ticky tack call at all

I don't think the left hand on his hip really altered his shot though. Looked like the shot was up before heavier contact was made

Agreed - still a great game -- really good game

he was putting force against the shooter's body before the shot was off...not only that, but using the shooter's body to get a better chance to block the shot. he got beat off the dribble and ended up creating contact from behind and fouling out of desperation to try to block the shot. he would have had no chance to defend that shot without fouling. to me the fact he got beat off the dribble and was completely behind the shooter when initiating contact makes any argument against the call moot.

Disagree, he pulled at his side as the ball left his hand, it affected the shot.

UM/TX game coverage begins with '06 Mason mini tribute.

This game is going to be a humdinger ….and surprisingly Coach L team seems to have free throw issues

jordan miller ballin baybeee...had a nice dirk fadeaway earlier, now took his man off the dribble for an easy layup

Texas is getting the threes and forcing Miami to fight through the defense
