Sorr UNLV, you have to tackle a guy to get a foul call when you are trying to put the other team on the line.

3/21/2013 10:09:06 PM

Gottlieb just said Oregon over OK State was the easiest pick of the day

3/21/2013 10:24:08 PM

I wish we got Shaka now.

3/21/2013 10:24:39 PM

I wish we got Shaka now.

3/21/2013 10:26:48 PM

^^^it was fairly easy. i'm sure he exaggerated it though.

3/21/2013 10:28:32 PM

Wow, 'cuse look like giants compared to montana's squad

3/21/2013 10:46:08 PM

^^i mean, i'd say Michigan and Michigan State were easier picks, among others

3/21/2013 10:49:18 PM

Allie LaForce is so hot. Frank Haith was having a tough time keeping eye contact with her.

3/21/2013 10:49:32 PM

would rather have Shaka than Gott

3/21/2013 10:49:37 PM

half of Akron's team either has the flu or back spasms

3/21/2013 10:50:45 PM

nah VCU is just really good

they present all sorts of matchup problems

[Edited on March 21, 2013 at 10:53 PM. Reason : .]

3/21/2013 10:52:49 PM

You know he is going to replace Roy or K.

3/21/2013 10:54:18 PM

lol Carolina will never have a black coach, can't scare off all the old white people in the front rows.

3/21/2013 10:56:49 PM

They need to just let this Akron VCU game have a running clock, this is brutal.

3/21/2013 11:01:46 PM

Another 1 and done for mizzou

3/21/2013 11:09:28 PM

HAITH'D

3/21/2013 11:12:26 PM

Haith is the new Paul Hewitt, great contract that will be painful unless they can fire with cause for NCAA issues.

3/21/2013 11:14:23 PM

It's such poetic justice that Haith is this and Miami is rad.

3/21/2013 11:17:24 PM

Missouri is really talented but very inconsistent?




hmmmmmmmmm

3/21/2013 11:21:56 PM

AHA, I picked Missouri to set my bracket apart, and they're not letting me down.

3/21/2013 11:22:24 PM

A fight should have broken out in this VCU Akron game.

VCU leading by 40+ still has a bunch of starters, jacking 3s, and rolling super hard on D.

3/21/2013 11:24:08 PM

That Colorado state fucker saved the ball after already stepping out of bounds.

3/21/2013 11:26:33 PM

this is the ncaa tournament. no mercy here.

3/21/2013 11:29:35 PM

Oh VCU's well within their rights to do it, I'm just saying I'd be all for somebody on Akron knocking someone the fuck out on a layup or some shit. Got to know what the deal is when you're deciding to show someone up.

3/21/2013 11:31:00 PM

Mizzou is pretty much what a Sidney Lowe NCAA Tournament team wouldve looked like

3/21/2013 11:34:21 PM

Missouri...messing with my stuff

3/21/2013 11:34:56 PM

frank haith, former coach of the year

3/21/2013 11:38:55 PM

Why do you hate me New Mexico?

3/21/2013 11:54:26 PM

haha UNM sucks

MWC= most overrated conference ever

3/21/2013 11:59:56 PM

I think Syracuse is mad. Holy shit what a beat down.

3/22/2013 12:06:42 AM

The MWC should have their automatic bid revoked after today

3/22/2013 12:15:34 AM

i mean CSU raped Mizzou, but they suck too

3/22/2013 12:16:49 AM

HAHAHAHAH nice 3 point attempt UNM

3/22/2013 12:19:44 AM

Lets give the Mountain West 9 bids next year!

3/22/2013 12:22:30 AM

0/10 in the last two years 8/9 games. Doesn't bode well for us or UNC haha

3/22/2013 7:33:14 AM

Duke flop count looks to be high today against Albany. Ryan Kelly's breasts are already tender from the gentle touching of Albany players.

3/22/2013 12:47:14 PM

So are we pulling for the ACC except Carolina?

3/22/2013 12:59:07 PM

Fuck Duke.

Miami is cool.

"I really thought that the University of New Mexico finally had a men's basketball team that earned the loyalty of their fans. I was wrong. I've been around Lobo basketball for 33 seasons. For 32 of those seasons, I knew that UNM had a team that could fold and lose to anyone at any time. I never got my expectations too high because a collapse was possible anytime they walked out on that floor. I thought this team was different. I was convinced that this Lobo team was for real. It had experience, a good front line and a good backcourt and good chemistry and was smart. I was wrong. The main difference between these Lobos and the others who fell flat was that the 2012-13 team played defense. New Mexico forced opponents to take bad shots and actually guarded. This team had real potential. I was wrong. This was a team that had the MWC Player of the Year in Kendall Williams and the MWC Tournament MVP in Tony Snell and two big men who had been outstanding at times and a point guard who had developed quickly. I never expected the Player of the Year to be absolutely invisible when he was needed most or that the tournament MVP couldn't hit a 3-pointer on a bet. I was wrong. I thought this team had accomplished something by winning the Mountain West Conference during the regular season and in the tournament. A win over UNLV on its home floor was impressive. Beating San Diego State and Colorado State and Boise State was the sign of success because the conference and these teams were so good. I was wrong. Now, the mighty MWC is 1-3 in the NCAA, and has not lost to any team seeded above a 13. It's not like they lost to Indiana or Louisville or even Georgetown or Michigan State. No, the losses were to the traditional powerhouses of LaSalle, California and Harvard. The league I thought was so good turns out to be so bad. I was wrong. I was disappointed when New Mexico was seeded a lowly third. I truly believed UNM would prove the committee wrong and thought that going to the Final Four was a realistic possibility. This was going to be the Year of the Lobo. New Mexico was finally going to get the credit, the respect and the attention it deserved. I was wrong. I thought that coach Steve Alford and athletic director Paul Krebbs were smart to announce a new 10-year contract the day before the Lobos started their march through the NCAA. No one would complain about the big dollars because UNM was on the road to glory. I was wrong. But I won't be wrong again. It was a lot easier to take when expectations were lower. Losing was acceptable because UNM had almost always lost when it really counted. You didn't have visions of greatness, only to have them dashed. After the pitiful performance UNM put up against a team that doesn't even offer scholarships, I've given up. Having all five starters back next season means nothing on a team that can just disappear like that. I'd be back to wondering when it would collapse, have a terrible game and lose to an inferior team again. No, I've had it. I've been to my last Lobo basketball game after covering the team for much of the last 33 years. Good-bye Lobo basketball."

at least wisconsin lost...

"Virginia/Maryland should have been in this [La Salle] game. Is the A10 better than the ACC? They got 5 bids."

On a somewhat related note: La Salle up 44-26 at the half

3/22/2013 4:04:53 PM

A10>>>>>>>>ACC

3/22/2013 4:05:54 PM

UNC and Duke to the A10

3/22/2013 4:06:48 PM

So UNC will win out right? To complete this season.

3/22/2013 4:07:59 PM

the only thing that I can laugh at after watching our game is the fact that my wife picked K-State to win it all. Obviously she doesnt watch much bball, but funny nonetheless.

3/22/2013 4:08:46 PM

Looks like things are panning up down the line for the Zags. They may go further than expected.

3/22/2013 4:08:47 PM

UNC/Duke title game will end in a tie, will split NCAA Title

3/22/2013 4:09:13 PM

funny how k-state is the ncstate of kansas.

3/22/2013 4:10:05 PM

I'd ask if they have "K State Shit", but I don't know for the life of me know anyone from Kansas
