Was out of pocket all morning.  But 2 comments:

- Bummer, would have liked to see the Gauchos pull off the upset.  Gave them a game for a half.

- Trojans:

Pitt needs to feed him a lot more.  Surprised he even weighs that much.

“Conference of champions“ looking like their normal selves in postseason.

[MNLonghornFUKM 8822]

#35 on VCU looks like the last player in the entire tournament I’d pick that would play on VCU

2 years ago we had 3 elite 8 teams.  I only care that we have one left standing.  Us.  

[Welshy 907]

Like his mom is making him play to keep off "the baby fat."

Damn that Pitt #25 is tall.

We have twin freshmen. The Diaz-Graham boys. One is 6’11” & the other is 7’

The other night he played 37 minutes, way more than any game this season. The brothers were on Spains Euro U20 championship team this past summer.

Good try, Cyclones, good effort.

[Huckleberry 33100]

Yeah I might be a bit biased because I have VCU in the seeded draft but the refs in their game seem extremely biased. Called a tech on the VCU coach, meanwhile the St. Mary's players chirp at them after every single call against them.

[BERT 4381]

Iowa St does realize they're supposed to score, right? 

[Make em eat Taco Bell 1549]

Auburn will beat Houston.  I think the Hogs will beat Kansas too.

Was an extremely weak T and he had a beef also. 

[ryskey 447]

Iowa State just went on a huge run and doubled their score

[MNLonghornFUKM 8822]

Iowa St has been stuck on 2 points for the last 27 minutes

Edit up until now

[Liquor and Poker 3659]

Holy shit 22-4.

refs definitely making impact in Vermont game.  Shaka should be toast in next round. 

[PittsburghTiger 6197]

Too much dribbling by Burton.

[Underdog 28774]

I think the Pitt Center fucked the bbw on Road Trip.

See, THIS is how it's done. None of this "root for your conference" nonsense.

[dcar00 14374]

marquette is just too quick for vermont.

Watch, ISU gonna win this

Is Pitt going to make a UCLA-esque first four to final four run?  Looking good.

I’d not bet on that. 

[Horn80 6131]

Pitt letting Iowa St get back into game.  It’s going to bite them.

[Underdog 28774]

Bullshit they put SMC/Zags in same Regional and deprive America of a WCC National Final.

This will be an 8 point game at half and Iowa State gonna make it tight at the end. Both teams look like shit.

Iowa State:  Hold my beer.

[Pancho 45009]

17-4 run by isu

[Gut Wagon 8087]

Pitt's an 11 seed for a reason. 

[dcar00 14374]

this one is over.  Vermont just not as good as usual.

[shadow_operative 15932]

yo i swear to god they were pumping in synthetic shoe squeaking noises into the VCU game. everyone was just standing around and yet the shoe squeaking was off the charts. super weird.

[JGrayDBU 345]

so refs threw a bone to Vermont, calling a foul on a 3.  too little way too late.

By scoring more points than the other team.

I forget how annoying Shaka is with all the theatrics as he coaches. Th squat down on every possession like he’s playing defense with his team, jumping really high on a made three, the constant clapping and calling out different numbers with hand signals like he’s constantly changing plays when we all can see they run the same shit every time down. What a beating. Glad that attention whore is gone.

Fuck that fucking guy

[Underdog 28774]

Good pace to start this Iona/UConn game.

[Hermanator 7175]

Shaka was giving our players fucking milkshakes all the time? No wonder his Texas teams sucked ass. We're Texans we eat steak and brisket we don't drink fucking milkshakes like those dairy cunt lactose immune mother fuckers up Wisconsin

Pitt trying to hand it to Iowast, but they won't take it.  Really bad quality. 

[Wally Pryor 5263]

I think I'd rather listen to Mumford and Sons on repeat than watch this offensive abortion.

I think. 

 

 

[shadow_operative 15932]

rick barnes, tony bennett, mark few, doug mcdermott- really good regular season coaches, super questionable come tourney time.

edited to add: i don't care that he's won a title, bennett is BY FAR the biggest underachiever in the tourney today, possibly all time.

Iowa St and Pitt play basketball like they're in the special Olympics 

[Gut Wagon 8087]

Who wants to see ISU come back in this one and uphold the honor of the B12? I sure don't.
