JerseyHoosier Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 Not gonna lie...I had to Google who UMBC was at halftime to establish who they were exactly. I knew a #1 seed would go down some day, but for THE #1 seeded team to get blown away by the likes of UMBC makes one pause to consider the beauty of this tournament. Sure my bracket is a bit screwed (as is every IU fan who avoided advancing pUKe in that region). But damn, that was some inspiring basketball to watch tonight!

milehiiu Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 The UMBC win caused me to wish that Indiana still had a one class basketball tournament. Miracles DO happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoosierfan615 Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 I am already excited for our team next year because we will have shooters! to complement the defense that CAM is instilling in the team. This past season CAM’s schemes created a lot of open looks, we just couldn’t shoot. Next season we will have both a defense and an offense for opposing teams to contend with. Can’t wait!!

Virginia choking in the tournament You forgot one. I'm not sure whether I should be laughing at Virginia, concerned that the vaunted pack line defense seems to cause early outs for both Virginia and Arizona every year, or be PO'ed that Purdue wasn't the first 1 to lose to a 16.

slojoe Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 Buffalo and UMBC upsets very favorable to UK. They only need to beat Buffalo and winner of Kansas State/UMBC game to get into the elite 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha I wasn't, but I had said that they were the great team everyone said this season didn't have. I think DJ said it in another thread but that game was eerily similar to ISU and FW.

I don't know what it was, but VA players acted like they didn't want to be there. I don't know how many uncontested layups that little munchkin had for UMBC.

Yeah, I try to keep an eye on Brownell. He played with Cheaney in HS. Looks like he has the Tigers going in the right direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milehiiu Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 After 40 years of making a bracket, last night's Virginia game is why I stopped making brackets, last year. Now.... rather than being torn by a team I felt should have won, I just sit back and enjoy the games. Having the dogs winning is much more enjoyable for me now.
