Texas Tech is getting embarrassed. They are the 2nd/3rd best team in the Big 12, but they look terrible. Toppin doesn't look good at all. Maybe it was just weak competition that made him look good.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Turns out the SEC was pretty good this year.

 

[Volunteer_Kirby]

Tech doesn't have it.

B10 homers BTFO lol

Have to give credit where credit is due. You were all over Calipari as having plenty left in the coaching tank despite their slow start during SEC play.

And I have to give you credit/kudos for admitting that.
Me and you didn't really have any major disagreement in respect. You were just basically saying he isn't a good floor coach.
I can see your point, but like I said the other day he is a little better than most give him credit for, and good enough to take a team all the way.

But yeah, my real argument was with the guy that was acting like Cal's best days were behind him a coach in general, and he was headed for the NIT. I knew better than that.
I knew he was at least going to make one run to stick it to KY
Plus he can recruit like no other so he's always going to have talent. His team next year is going to be stacked, too.

Zona making a run. Just don’t breath on Flagg or there’ll be a fou called.

 

[Flogballs]

yeah if Arky plays like this Saturday they’re definitely going to the final four. They look like a machine tonight

Unfortunately though this means this game is probaly gonna be yet another blowout. how exciting.

How did they lose by 20 to South Carolina earlier this month lol

Feel like we’re asking this question a lot this tournament lol. Like how did Clemson beat Duke? How did Arky lose to SC?the regular season had more madness than March Madness as it tunes out

 

[Kicker82]

Florida is going to send Arkansas into the offseason but its been a great unexpected run from them

Theiro was out. When they lost Boogie Fland he was their only real for sure scorer. So in that game they had both their leading scorers out.
The ironic thing is losing those guys has made them better. Gave everyone else on the team a chance to find a meaningful role. Now they a very deep team going forward and have their two leading scorers back.

I really wouldn’t be so sure. Arky is looking like they’re this years team of destiny.

 

[Volunteer_Kirby]

Tech now 3-25 on 3's. It's hard to watch

 

[99gator]

It’s amazing how much I take for granted.

The amount of teams I’ve seen in this tournament that flat out can not hit open shots is astounding to me

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Hahahahahahah Duke favoritism at its finest!!! Arizona gets a flagrant foul called on them for a hook and hold and then Duke does the EXACT same thing two possessions later and it’s just a common foul. Incredible. Simply incredible.

 

[cncchris33]

Arizona getting flat-out screwed

 

[Thunder Good-Oil]

Exact same play. Arizona called for a hook and hold. Duke’s is a common foul.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Arizona getting flat-out screwed

And people say with a straight face that some brands don’t get a favorable whistle.

I knew they weren’t going to let Zona come back. Absolute garbage.

 

[Thunder Good-Oil]

Even Ssratore didn’t cover for the refs.

 

[Lawrence Wright]

Duke is a problem.

 

[99gator]

Duke is a problem.

Yep

 

[Anti-shunshinepumper]

I really wouldn’t be so sure. Arky is looking like they’re this years team of destiny.

Me either. They have the size/length and physicality to really hang with Flordia.
My only question is can they necessarily guard Clayton Jr.
If I knew that answer, I could probably tell you who wins that game.

 

[DirtyDawg]

Duke is a problem.

They really are, but Zona is giving them their best. They are just tough.

 

[kptvol1]

I just checked in on the games. How the heck is Arizona even in spitting distance with Duke’s shooting percentage? Good grief

 

[HeuperDrive]

They really are, but Zona is giving them there best. They are just tough.

Have to applaud Zona. They’re giving Duke hell tonight. I’m sure they’ll get zero credit from the media and it’ll be treated like Duke won by 500 though
