NC State lost 5 of 6 to end the regular season, then had to win 5 straight in the ACC tournament to even make the NCAA tournament, and now they have a path to the Sweet 16. 

College basketball for you. Sometimes getting hot at the right time is all that matters. 

and nobody knows it better than NC State...

Damn, my boy @Underdog took the loss hard.

Northwestern rolling out a whitewash.

[MirrOlure 14773]

Seriously…do schools go out of their way to get that many honkeys on their team?

….asked as two of them air-balled an alley oop. My lord

Man, it's Northwestern.  They actually do play school.

Everyone took shooting lessons from Virginia.

I could never that loquacious with words. I should add, I hope that was the UK AD who posted that.

i can't decide if tech losing or Kentucky losing is funnier

And not just losing, abused for most the game, especially the 2nd half. Tech never stood a chance as the 2nd half went on. They didn't even try and double Burns Jr when he was a man amongst boys out there once he shook up that rusty start.

I missed that call against Samford. Ref is a choad.

If I'm the next opposing coach, I'm asking the ref to make burns tuck his shirt in every 2 minutes.

just not sure how that play in the northwestern/fau game is all that much different than what brock cunningham did last night.

It’s because Cunningham has a “reputation”

theres another one that would defnitely be called a flagarant foul against brock cunningham

That was way worse than Brock’s too (although I still don’t think it should be a F1). There was a partial swing. Brock just backed up for a box out with his arm out and made contact in the head/neck area.

[BigOrange1 6437]

at least they ended up calling this one.

[4th&Five 41550]

Why can they spend 5 minutes reviewing this but not 30 seconds looking at the Samford call?

[CurlyDumps 4471]

When do Marquette fans start to sweat?

When Shaka starts leading breathing exercises during timeouts in the last five minutes of the game and then positions himself as a sixth defender on the court. 

[LonghornSean 3998]

Was it just me or did it look like the shot clock didnt reset there for FAU after the over and back violation?

[BigOrange1 6437]

the refs in this fau/nw game have not been good.

[PittsburghTiger 6185]

These reviews are not fun. Crazy what you can, and can’t review.

Although, who doesn’t love a ton of Gene Steratore?

Edited March 22 by PittsburghTiger

[BigOrange1 6437]

ok now that shouldn't be called flagrant. 

what a fucking idiotic decision by the fau player

[kingkoopa6 8350]

lol. wtf 

[4th&Five 41550]

great possession, dude.  wake the fuck up.

[NorthLoop 14203]

That kid must be Charlie Strong's nephew or something. 

[kingkoopa6 8350]

Dumb dumb acting like there’s 20 mins left in game. But instead 3 seconds 

[Braff Zacklin 13573]

Uh, I dunno what the plan was for FAU's final possession of regulation, but I'm pretty sure that wasn't it.

[billfromlaketravis 11478]

LSU is in the NIT, yet some actor is wearing their gear in every other March Madness commercial. Does not compute. 

[ztejas 43443]

I might cover this Langborn* kid. 

FAU really blew this one. 

Edited March 22 by ztejas

[shadow_operative 15932]

FAU deserves to get blowed the fuck out during this OT for that asinine final play of regulation. the dude who brought the ball up and took that shot should get jumped in the locker room.

I've never seen a terrible possession like that carry over into OT like it has.

Getting fucking worked in OT

 

[BigOrange1 6437]

fau has 4 fouls.  they are dumb as fuck for not playing physical and going for steals right now.  they're gonna need NW shooting 1 and 1 and they have 2 fouls to give to even get there.

I was just going to type the same thoughts. Terrible end of regulation and horrible OT. Terrible.

[BigOrange1 6437]

good lord i realize its a long shot but you have to foul early there and preserver some clock.  they basically conceded the game.
