Kinda a weak travel call, and it's not like he was in a workable situation anyway what with 3 defenders on top of him. No sense in raging at him!

A weak travel call? He took like 5 steps.

Damn. Only had MSU winning one game, but shit. St. John's, too. After getting the Richmond/Vandy game right my first round has gone downhill.

To be fair, it was 24-42 at the half. You can't let that happen.

That is true. The matchups were godawful and Izzo should be ashamed.

I'm more bummed with Izzo relying on him for anything the way he played the entire game.

It's a fitting end to a wholly mediocre season.

He took 2 or 3 before the dribble/whistle, I'd have to see another replay since I changed the channel.

Weak because you see guys with uncalled happy feet all the time. In this case it's irrelevant, there was no chance he was making it through that crowd.

Can someone explain to me why everyone was so high on St. John's?
Click to expand...

Because of how they performed late in the season again high competition. Without the late season run against high teams they wouldn't even be in let alone a 6 seed

Damn I had MSU beating UCLA; that's what I get for being stubborn about the team. Buffalo Wilds Wings was going crazy during the last 5 minutes of the game. Great comeback attempt.

What the fuck...

That Green guy from Utah State who hit that 2 looks like the product of my one time fucking around with the character creation feature in NBA 2K9.

I have all my sweet 16 still intact! I'm tied for 2nd with 4 other people for most possible points left with 188. I'll take the same performance again tomorrow...4 losses if my S16 stays intact. It was a good day of basketball. Morehead and Gonzaga won...I have both going to the S16. Whew.

Well, I finish 11 out of 16 on my picks today, on top of being 4 for 4 on the First Four In games. Pretty good start. I wish I would've entered the GAF pick 'em now!

15 of my 16 Sweet Sixteen teams are still good, the only exception being Vandy, who I picked over Louisville. So that game was screwed anyway.

Aw, man. I just checked my bracket and I realized I chose Utah State over Kansas State. I swear I heard somebody say don't buy into the Utah State hype and I thought I listened... meh

12 of 16 at the end of the day.

I'm gonna say that's not bad considering I don't follow a lick of college bball.

Fitting end for a miserable season for MSU. Reminds me a little of the Turner dagger that Michigan had to endure at the end of last year.

I also wouldn't mind some bragging rights if Michigan somehow goes deeper into the tournament than the Spartans.

I'd say Morehead to the S16 is looking pretty good.

I also have Gonzaga to S16. That should be a pretty good game against BYU on Saturday.

Only upset seed wise I have tomorrow is VCU over Georgetown. Big games on my board beyond that one are George Mason over Villanova as I have GM to the S16 and Washington over Georgia as I have Washington to the Elite 8. Let's hope my irish luck continues!!! =)

That's a pretty fucking ballsy upset.

I also having Washington knocking out Georgia, but that's as far as they go in my bracket. They get to enjoy a nice stomping from North Carolina in the 3rd round.

UW is a 7 seed, they are supposed to win against a 10 seed?

Georgia could easily be better than their record shows. They play in a more difficult division than Washington.

And by "ballsy" upset I was referring to his picking VCU over Georgetown, hence the bold.
