BYU has no defense though. Duke will be a different animal.

Most likely, but Bama is going to be impossible for anyone to beat if they can shoot the 3 like that first half. Even Duke.

I can’t handle both bum ass teams teams winning tonight

Bama doesn’t play defense either though, would be a crazy 3 point shootout most likely

They cooled down a bit but we're shooting like 50+ %. Good luck to anyone that plays them if they hitting that good. They play defense just enough to hold almost any team at or under 100. That's assuming they have Nelson at 100%, tho.
They on pace to have well over a hundred this game.

Gonna laugh if Maryland wins this game

 

[TrapVol]

Condon looks like he’s in pain. If he returns, he won’t be 100%.

 

[Voljayton]

If Maryland's bigs could hit a layup they'd be up by 6

They’re getting open looks.

Duke won’t give them that many open shots.

My bracket was already shot when KY beat Illinois, so eff it, bring on the chaos!

As many turn-overs as Florida has had they ought to be up 10. That would make me feel better if I was a Florida fan, but if Condon doesn't come back I would be sweating bullets.
This game and for sure going forward.

Did we recruit the Maryland point guard? He’s from the Johnson City area.

I read he had a desire to play for UT but didn’t want to sit behind ZZ. Since that spot opens up next year maybe he’ll still be interested?

I tuned in late and was looking at the stat line.
Usually Bama doesn’t shoot that well in respect.
Which is why I was saying they will be unstoppable if they can get it going from 3 like that.
But yeah, Duke won't give them too many open looks and neither would we.

Dumbest tech I have ever seen. Soft as hell

 

[Flogballs]

The SEC is working on having 6 teams in the Elite 8.

Can we admit that in a sport like basketball with this format championship, it’s a good thing when the conference does well? That being said I still want the top teams to lose since it helps the Vols chances, so go Maryland

 

[DocVol]

Dumbest tech I have ever seen. Soft as hell

And even worse "blocking" call immediately after.

 

[Flogballs]

Im for Bama, however,
becuase I think they stand some faint glimmer of hope against Duke. BYU, not

Yep, I’m for everyone being upset but us . Clear the way

 

[SugarVols]

Bama is just built for March

 

[SGMVols]

You can’t beat Bama by trying to out-Bama them if you’re already at a talent disadvantage.

 

[Voljayton]

Sears 7 of 10 from 3. Sheesh

 

[DirtyDawg]

Sears is just draining 3s! 7-10!

 

[vol94]

Duke plays good defense and will beat Bama imo

 

[SGMVols]

Meh. They keep getting drawn into matchups with other teams that try to out-track meet them which rarely works. Bama struggles with teams who slow them down.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Mark Sears is 7-10 from 3 so far…..sheesh.
