**NCAA Basketball Thread**

[mthawk07]

There needs to be a supercut of all the pathetic final possessions in this tournament. My goodness.

[SmoothD41]

That was about the worst I've ever seen, and I watch a LOT of college basketball. Especially with all that was riding on that possession. Absolutely pathetic.

[K3nTaKa0s]

Carter looking to be a hero.

[kydmb99]

I laugh everytime I see Isaac Haas

[recentlyJTR41]

He must be a huge Westbrook fan. That was just ridiculous. I'd ask WVU to pay me back if I flew cross country for that shit.

[kydmb99]

Kansas looks really good

[SmoothD41]

Purdue is obviously gonna have to slow this down. Last 6 minutes got a little out of hand.

I think it is coach's preferences. College coaches like to coach offense at the end of the game, while NBA coaches like to coach defense at the end of the game.

[SmoothD41]

Man, Kansas makes you pay for every single mistake. This thing might be over.

[SmoothD41]

Value the damn ball, Purdue.

[snow1868]

Breaking news alert, Kansas is good at basketball.

[SmoothD41]

God this turned into a blood bath.

[TheLastPig]

Hell of a basketball game. Credit to the Zags, they are tough.

No idea what that last possession was, but they battled hard all night. Team is gonna be really good again next year. Hopefully we can take the B12.

[seekupig]

That was fun

[Lee3691]

Some great games today...

[kydmb99]

What a complete meltdown by Arizona. Trier went straight up hero ball

[UNLTrpt]

I can't remember the last time I picked a national champion...

[SmoothD41]

Chris Mack can coach. Another guy I would love to see IU make a big run at.

[Lee3691]

My wife had a perfect day yesterday in her bracket. Watch out Butler, she has you beating North Carolina.

[Roose13]

Welp, lost two games yesterday but still managed to keep my two teams in the final

[thebridge15]

what an amazing sequence by xavier going 2 for 1 at the end

either gonzaga or xavier about to be exposed on saturday

[YouNeverKnow25]

florida/USCjr/gonzaga/xavier/sconny/baylor

one of those teams gonna be playing for the national title

[thebridge15]

gonzaga -8
kansas -6

[UNC41]

Based on how Kansas looked last night, I'm guessing no one told them they don't have a shot at cutting down the nets because they lost their first game in the Big 12 tournament.

[YouNeverKnow25]

kansas looked great, no doubt. been reading a lot about how they're now the favorite.


let's not forget though....it's fucking purdue. we're going to anoint a new favorite based upon a performance against a group of people who willingly decided to go to purdue?

[kydmb99]

Gonzaga doesn't impress me at all

[UNC41]

Who here anointed Kansas as a new favorite?

agreed, fine, but they're a game against xavier away from the final four. where they'd meet up with, at best, florida

Their defense is suffocating but if WVU didnt shoot 16 for 60 we easily win.

With that said, theyre the best team left on that side of the bracket.

I understand that and I'm not holding it against them. I just am not impressed when I actually watch them play basketball.
