2023 NCAA Tournament - Elite 8

[PittsburghTiger 6,169]

Beating Tennessee on the boards. That is unexpected.

[Liquor and Poker 3,659]

I just saw Barnes vs Shaka writ large and clearly in one tournament.  Advantage Barnes I guess, but…

[Pancho 44,599]

Barnes is damn near 70. Time to start thinking about chillin at the lake in Hickory from now on, maybe make an appearance on College Gameday

Tennessee playing itself right out of this game. Wow.

That's the makeup of a Barnes led team in the tournament. Especially the pathetic 2nd half on the offensive end. Can't remember how many times we watched this very game over and over for Texas in the tournament.

I remember

[Valmy77 13,195]

Come on refs there are 4.8 seconds left. Does it really matter?

[Vic Mackey 46,985]

Are we seriously reviewing this call in a 7pt game with 4.8 left? Holy shit who cares. Game over.

[BurgleBro 787]

Almost like we OGs seen this script before

Multiple years in a row lmfao

 

Credit FAU they out defensed a team that destroyed us

[Mo Horn 8,810]

Barnes gonna Barnes

[elfenix 34,207]

do we really need to take 5 minutes to figure out whose ball it is with 4.8 left and 7 points?

[Brian Fantana 6,673]

Big congrats to Texas Tech LEGEND Vladislav Goldin

[PittsburghTiger 6,169]

This UCLA game is crazy. I reckon those UCLA injuries have finally caught up to them

 

[Stunns38 3,453]

UCLA just looks drained.

[MirrOlure 14,703]

Tom Herman’s already on tbe hot seat!

[Firemans4Horn 18,003]

UCLA looks out of gas. Missing two starters is tough. 

[Sbbruin 21,787]

Jaquez has no legs left

UCLA just looks drained.

Yep. Gassed

one of the shitty parts about being a ref, if you dont’ review that you could ruin your chance to ref the next game (which for this crew could possibly be the FF). You could also get fired for not following a rule. The shitty part is the refs know it doesn’t matter. I guarantee they were saying “shit, seriously we have ot go review this?” On their walk to the monitor. 

[BigOrange1 6,424]

this angle of the nowell oop is so sick

 

[Shaggy3.0 1,695]

Just have to LOL @ Rick Barnes.

December-January Rick Barnes is a completely different coach than March Rick Barnes.

His early season teams are often loose and play good ball.

His tourney teams seem like they have a champagne glass shoved up their ass and they're terrified of breaking it.

They sure seemed scared to shoot the ball in that last 5 minutes.  Same way Purdue looked against FDU.

Surly never fails. 

[Stunns38 3,453]

Timme just matched his age in points

[MonkeyDoughnut 10,192]

Kansas St gets FAU for final 4 birth... Damn that's a nice draw.

[Underdog 28,513]

Dagger?

[UTEE97 3,489]

[BigOrange1 6,424]

damn, i thought ucla had this one for sure.

[Sbbruin 21,787]

Motherfucker

[DanTheHorn 4,903]

Well these games are showing me the intensity is up a notch and I must prepare myself for stress tomorrow.

[BigOrange1 6,424]

0 fg in 9:00 is no way to beat gonzaga.

[Brian Fantana 6,673]

This might finally kill off Bill Walton

[ClubWhatever 12,105]

Lefty for UCLA needs to aim for the back of the rim

Go Zags!!

[Stunns38 3,453]

This drought rivals Austin in 2011.

[Pig Bellmont 8,698]

UCLA can’t hit any shots down the stretch. Lead might be too big

[HamsterHookah 112]

Huge 3. Hahahahaha yes

[Sbbruin 21,787]

We’re fucked

[Firemans4Horn 18,003]

Respect to UCLA, they had no depth and these guys look dead. 

[Vic Mackey 46,985]

Geezus UCLA. 10+ minutes with zero points. Pathetic.

[TexArcher 37,703]

Yeah, a 10-point lead seems likely to hold up if UCLA scores 0 more points.

[DanTheHorn 4,903]

UCLA looks like they have been broken and have no answers.

[ztejas 43,385]

I think this Zags team should be the title favorite. I didn't realize how legit they were until I watched them in their ro32 game.

And they might have won the whole thing had they been healthy.

[ClubWhatever 12,105]

How bizarre.  Going to end the game not scoring in a full 25% of game.   That kind of falls under the category of deserve to lose.

UConn looked awesome tonight. Going to be a great elite 8 matchup. 

[ClubWhatever 12,105]

Not sure I’ve ever seen a larger head of hair in a basketball game. 

[Underdog 28,513]

I don't want Bruin anywhere near #12 but can't help feel for them a bit given their injuries.
