2009 Men's NCAA Basketball Tournament

I lost two already, damn BYU and Butler.

Same here. (not too sad though ).

With LSU having won earlier and Carolina beating Ranford like a stepchild, is it too early to say that we are going to have an entertaining trash-talk battle between anders and mccoy?

I think depending on Washington is a mistake. Mississippi State is hot and Washington isn't exactly playing their best right now.

I'm not as dependent on Purdue- I have them losing to Washington in the Sweet 16.

Your team needs to be able to compete for you to talk trash. After watching the Tigers all season, I'm afraid they may be in for a good ole arse whipping in NC.

But, you never know.

Btw, I dont know if you know this but on "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon", Jimmy has been pulling for Chattanooga. He talked them up the other night and last night had some Chattanooga fans in the audience, the band was there and Jimmy even interviewed the coach. Also, Dennis Haskins was there since he graduated from there. For those, who dont know, he played Mr. Belding on "Saved By the Bell".

Based on his pick, I hope Jimmy's show survives.

Maryland starting to pull away from Cal.

 

[BillD1984]

I only hope that Morehead State and East Tennessee State put up a better fight than Radford or Chattanooga!

 

[uncrules]

Hey Ramy, I've seen some rumors the BG is out after the NIT. Have you heard anything?

 

[BillD1984]

UNC 101, Radford 58 FINAL

 

[uncrules]

According to UNC Internet insiders it is expected that Ty Lawson will play against LSU.

 

[BillD1984]

Miss St-Washington just underway.

 

[Mets82]

Lets see: UNC wins by 43. Uconn winning by 43, Maryland leading by 10 and another game just starting: I think its dinner time!!! lol

 

[uncrules]

Damn Maryland!

I thought they, like Arizona, were not tournament worthy and got in on reputation.

Any team that beats UNC, Michigan State and Wake Forest deserves to be in the tournament.

Maryland advances. I went 4-0 after starting the day 1-2. I need Washington to win now.

 

[SabresRule]

What's the record for most lopsided margin of victory in a tournament game?

UConn looks like they can break the record.

 

[SabresRule]

So far this tournament has gone as I expected- some close games, a few bludgeonings, and a lower-seeded upset.

The Huskies just won, 103-47.

[BillD1984]

It's still early, but this Miss St-Washington game looks like it could be a good one!
