For-DaLove Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 I hate it when I find myself rooting against my picks because I realize how much I hate certain teams.I tend to do that a lot. I'm a sucker for the underdog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbizzle09 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Tu Holloway was an absolute no-show today. If he does ANYTHING then X is in the game and has a chance to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majerus mojo Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 tu dropping some serious tears on the bench when game was finally out of reach... feels bad for letting the seniors down, or is this perhaps his last game as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd probably be crying too if I played that bad, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbizzle09 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Have we seen the last of Bruce Pearl in Tennessee orange? That team looked like it didn't even want to be out there in the 2nd half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Metzinger Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 I love seeing X get beat. Also, how great does Tom Crean look on the Halftime Show? IU fans better get used to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

courtside Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Tu Holloway was an absolute no-show today. If he does ANYTHING then X is in the game and has a chance to win. Good game plan to put 6'6 Jimmy Butler on Holloway to start the game. He's still quick enough laterally to keep up, while providing length to bother Holloway. Marquette rotated guys on him throughout the first half to frustrate him and and they were ready for the high ball screens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moytoy12 Posted March 19, 2011 Author Share Posted March 19, 2011 I'm no fan of the MVC, but i'm pulling for Indiana St. They came out fired up in the 2nd half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marquette rotated guys on him throughout the first half to frustrate him and and they were ready for the high ball screens.I found an interview of Buzz Williams on Ken Pomeroy's twitter where he was breaking down Xavier and it was crazy some of the stats he knew. Pretty much he was talking about how many on-ball screens they tend to set and how most of them were for Tu. So they were definitely well prepared.

moytoy12 Posted March 19, 2011 Author Share Posted March 19, 2011 VCU is pounding Gtown. I picked VCU, but for no real tangible reason. I'm pulling for their young coach and I thought they might come out fired up after hearing all the "you don't belong" talk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pulling for their young coach and I thought they might come out fired up after hearing all the "you don't belong" talk. G'Town got smoked last season by 14-seed Ohio and VCU is killing them tonight, despite being an 11 seed and the team all the pundits said should not have gotten an at-large bid. 4 Big East teams (G'Town, St. John's, L'Ville, Villanova) that got beat in the 1st round by low or mid-majors (VCU, Gonzaga, Morehead St., George Mason). 3 of those teams were 11 seeds or higher.

Nearly impossible to figure out the seeding thought process of the NCAA committee. Many way over and under seeded teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
