Fuck yeah Gators!!!!!

UK beat SC by 20 last time we played, this aint the same SC team.

fwiw, UF beat us by 20, and then we beat them by 10.

 

[GoldenEye 007]

No way, 4 seconds is barely enough to get to the three point line. The right call was to intentionally miss the second free throw and at best they would have made it to half court for a heave. It takes a minimum of 2 seconds to get a board and then outlet it to a guard at half court. The second free throw being made bought them absolutely nothing. Coach should have been all over that, let it be a lesson.

Makes sense too. Oh well. Wiscy was on borrowed time already I guess?

 

[Toxi]

My family were rooting for the Badgers and while they were disappointed, this is the best way they could have lost.

 

[SerArthurDayne]

Dead.

That shot was beautiful and defied science.

If you watched the game you saw he had an airball on a similar shot that was about two feet short of the rim just a few minutes earlier.

It was clearly a master plan, and as a physicist rather than a mathematician, he just decided to zero in on his range with a practice run.

Oh fuck, that was the same dude wasn't it, lmao

Taking a belated bow. Go Gators and all that.

This is the won't somebody please start a nuclear war game.

For the others, give me Steve Spurrier's last stop, the fighting Adam Morrisons, and the team playing opposite Highlighter U.

 

[RR30]

Man I can't believe how good of a gameplan Calipari came up with for the game. He's not the best coach but he's pretty damn good. Slowing it down against UNC a bit should help too. Berry isn't 100%. I hope they have Fox drive it down his throat all game.

Well the possible nuke area would have been Duke vs UNC. UK/UNC is worthy of maybe just incendiary bombs or maybe chemical agents.

but havent you heard, Cal cant coach

I am going to follow the lead of your coach, Duke all time great and the one who started the 30+ year run of greatness, Johnny Dawkins, and pretend that you did not just say that.

 

[nillapuddin]

KSR says Alford staying at UCLA

Cal 6-0 in S16

Alford 0-4, ouch

 

[bachikarn]

Still can't believe that happened. Go Gators.

Everyone makes mistakes when they're young. But he's atoned for those....

That's why I'm forgiving you.

Well, he's certainly not going to IU, since the Hoosiers are hiring Archie Miller.

Sorry UCLA fans, you're stuck with Alfraud for now.

Whoa, makes sense though. Seems like a good hire

 

[Box of Kittens]

A lot of IU fans had themselves convinced Billy Donovan was coming based on a bunch of anonymous rumors, so now those fans are disappointed. The realistic fans should see this is a good hire.

IU, realistic. lol

IU, realistic. lol

There are dozens of us!

 

[Piggus]

Go Ducks.

 

[unknownstranger]

Lol they brought the puppets back.

 

[MisterR]

Yeah you're right on the highlight. The thinking being, though, that the pressure is on them. Worse case is a tie for another OT. And little to no chance of an outright loss.

Would have been stupid to foul in that situation. That shot is missed probably 99 time out of a 100. Just some shitty luck. Should have missed the second free throw though and obviously Florida should have fouled at the end of regulation.

Anybody that doesn't think Cal is a great coach is a idiot. He's 6-0 at UK in the sweet 16. Give him a week to prepare and he's hard as hell to beat.

 

[Falchion]

I like the contrast between Gonzaga's white unis and Xavier's black ones. It's refreshing after Oregon and Baylor games.

 

[unknownstranger]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL can't even be mad at that ending.

 

[LowlySmokeGuy]

Xavier being down 10 isn't the worst thing in the world with Gonzaga making all of their 3s. They should be feeling fortunate.

 

[RecRoulette]

This game is to go to the Final Four...

 

[unknownstranger]

Collins gets so many stupid fouls.

Edit: So many of our 3's are open. Why are you doubling Karnowski with William-Goss's man?

 

[SwordStruck]

Xavier acts like they don't even want to be on the floor.

 

[sooperkool]

Xavier acts like they don't even want to be on the floor.

Xavier seems rattled because the Zags won't rattle.

 

[unknownstranger]

Can't wait for all the stories about how we had the easiest road to the final four of all time.

 

[OfficerRaichu15]

I still think Gonzaga will get murderes in the national championship but that is just me.
(But please win)

 

[RecRoulette]

lmao, that girl

 

[OfficerRaichu15]

Hey Xavier cheer up.
Bluiett and JP will be in a mission
Your getting a 5 star and 2 4 star freshman and your rookies have developed and have room for more. They'll be scary next year(honestly think they will win Big East)

 

[Falchion]

Welp game 1 was a bust, hopefully the next will be closer.

 

[ryseing]

*Easiest road to the championship of all time if you end up playing South Carolina.

 

[unknownstranger]

They're going to say that with Florida too since we already beat them this season.

 

[sooperkool]

Wow, josh Jackson with 2 fouls already

 

[SyNapSe]

Jackson out for a half. Damn

 

[SwordStruck]

*Easiest road to the championship of all time if you end up playing South Carolina.

Florida would be much easier than South Carolina. I think Gonzaga would have a lot of trouble against the SC defense.

I guess I don't know much about Spokane, but the response article the guardian had to put up seems ridiculous.

Spokane, like the rest of Eastern Washington is basically a giant shit hole. Same thing with Tri-Cities too. I'm not in either but I'm within 2 hours of both.

Skimmed over the part talking about the response the first time. What the hell, lol

How was that on Ennis?
