lol I realized that the first few minutes. Stanford's playing really well.

 

[ttharp]

Creighton runs such a good offense.

I don’t understand why Tara Vanderveer has been wearing a mask, and then not wearing a mask.

 

[VolBall09]

I wonder if Creighton could cause any issues for South Carolina?

I think the carriage turns back into a pumpkin in the elite eight. Cannon fodder for South Carolina on the way to the final four

Creighton up by 7 over Iowa State with 27.5 seconds left. Creighton got away on an uncalled foul against Donarski which would have cut it to two.

Yea I thought the defender’s arms weren’t horizontal and leaned forward into Donarski. I’ve watched replays with similar positioning and they were ruled as fouls.

Creighton in Elite Eight 76-68.

Creighton in Elite Eight 76-68.

Any idea what highest EE seed ever is?

 

[LUVMESUMVOL]

Maryland on the comeback but too little too late it will only make the score respectable

 

[VolBall09]

Appears Gonzaga went to the Elite Eight in 2011 as an 11 seed. Creighton (10) joins Lamar (1991) and Oregon (2017) on the list as 10 seeds.

Kellie Graves has taken two double digit seeds to the Elite Eight, a fact I forgot, and a very impressive one.

my picks sucked! 1 out of 4 wins. MD was turrible. tx got lucky again and isu just got plucked.

 

[Rooster1]

Boston with 28/22, should cement POY

 

[Rooster1]

I wonder if Creighton could cause any issues for South Carolina?

Some, but not enough, they will be abused on the boards and likely won’t be able to stop the second chance shots from SC….SC team rebounds over half of their misses this season, extraordinary

 

[Vols2015]

Crazy Maryland almost came back, only lost by 6…

 

[Rooster1]

Was a bunch of close games tonight, they always close at this stage, great games all around. Tomorrow should be much of the same.

Creighton, wow.

 

[Rooster1]

In mudcat lingo:

“no tri wich saw bords the game play same”
interpretation: rebounders did well, three point shooters not so well, the games were won by playing defense and rebounding while getting second chance points off the boards, same as it ever was”

mucho gracious Mud: “mybe now sum time if goal is in it werd”

my head hurts!

my head hurts!

No kidding G

I wonder if Creighton could cause any issues for South Carolina?

Yes

 

[Rooster1]

Yes, as said above. But not enuf…they will be destroyed on boards, will give up second chance points on over 50% of SC shots. They playing great of course, fun to watch, end of road for them now though because SC will own rebounds on both ends, plus SC guards starting to hit some.

Even if they hit on 40% of their 3’s, they will be outshot by 10-15 FG attempts just based on boards, that is conservative perhaps, and SC won’t give up 40% from three. I think that Creighton will finally see foul trouble here trying to keep,SC off the boards and trying to stop the paint points. Will be fun to watch though.

 

[Lucy]

Fully a third of our friends and family pool have no points left in the men’s tournament. Just crazy!!

 

[Rooster1]

Lucy, it’s all good, fun to watch both sides
