Since hiring Jai Lucas two years ago, Kentucky has had an abysmal season when they missed the tourney, and now this has happened. 

That dude is a curse.

I believe Barnes hired him during his last 2 or 3 seasons in Austin. You might be onto something.

Good lord Loyola make a layup

Loyola on the verge of getting blown out

[Wulaw Horn 19076]

I’ve said it before and I will say it again- we could fix the epidemic is too many charge calls if we changed the Uber aggressive hand behind the head and point the other way signal to make the official instead do the I’m a little tea pot dance. 

[Pancho 44836]

Christ, this camera angle ink the tech/Montana game.  Looks like football games at tcu

[Wally Pryor 5261]

This crew for the Tech game is made for a Mute button.

Blowout day

[Pancho 44836]

Welp, the morning games are officially a snoozer….

[Brian Fantana 6689]

If TJ Shannon could go ahead and shoot like that the rest of the tournament that would be great

[Pancho 44836]

I’ve always wondered if there are less upsets on the Friday of the first weekend compared to Thursday.  My hypothesis would be the higher seeds on Friday see the upsets on Thursday and there’s something there mentally that causes them to have extra focus so that does happen to them. 

I’m too lazy to pull this up.

Interesting thought. I'd counter by saying upsets like Kentucky losing to St. Peter's inspires lower seeds and makes them believe they can win 😉

It's nice when it's your team on the winning side of the snoozer.  Much easier on the blood pressure.

You should have to buy tickets on the Midway to see Edey.

[Brian Fantana 6689]

Nice to see us come out fired up and focused...was worried we'd sleepwalk through this game

Blowout day

Favored seed blowouts can continue into the afternoon, k thanks?

[Beau Vine 54246]

tOSU is the closest game right now, and they could literally take shot clock violations till the game is over and still win.  

OH, how exciting -- Yale-Purdue is on!  

This sucks.

Loyola at 12.5% FT

I have hope but I can't shake the feeling we're going to be as frustrated as Loyola fan is watching this clinic on shooting like blind men.

Here's a little cursory research with all the 1 and 2 upsets:

UMBC/UVA - Friday

--

St. Peters/UK - Thursday

Oral Roberts/tOSU - Friday

MTSU/MSU - Friday

FGCU/Georgetown - Friday

Lehigh/Duke - Friday

Norfolk St/Mizzou- Friday

Hampton/ISU - Thursday 

Coppin State/USCe - Friday

Santa Clara/Zona - Thursday 

Richmond/Cuse - Thursday 

 

So that leans Fri but small sample size and over a 30 year period. If I get bored I'll do the 3s and 4s.

These games are so bad that I'm glad to have some work to do to kill time until our tipoff.

Just wait until they expand the college football playoff. Those early round games are going to be barn burners.

Any swamp reference deserves rep.

[Brian Fantana 6689]

This Montana St. team is 18-2 since the beginning of the year. Just an entirely different level of basketball.
