NCAA Tournament thread

guessing some umbc fan has the last perfect bracket.

I have a confession to make: I tuned in for the last 12 minutes of the game, thanks to the posts in this thread alerting me to the possibility of a 16>1 upset. And until game's end, I didn't even know what school I was watching. I had no idea what UMBC stood for.

I wonder if it will happen more frequently after tonight.

They scored 53 in the 2nd half

UVA probably gives up 53 per game

Coming into tonight, through 33 games, UVA gave up 53.4 points/game. link
Incredible that UMBC scored that many against UVA in a half.

Also, just bummed out for the Virginia seniors. Just awful to have your career end like that, especially to a team as bad as UMBC. And make no bones about it, that is a bad team.

Best thing is that an ACC team lost to a 16 seed.

UMBC kicked their ass. That was awesome.

TCU can’t do a damn thing in the half court

Screw those east coast people. They mock all of us in the middle.

The Retrievers play smart and obedient basketball. They also shed double teams very well and chase after loose balls.

No surprise to see you spewing uninformed garbage. Very on brand for you.

 

[DenverSooner]

I am very content in the middle with my guns and religion.

 

[NickZepp]

TCU's about to go down.

 

[DenverSooner]

TCU is going to lose.

Your ignorant self doesn't realize that UVA is in the middle of rural Virginia, which is guns and religion country. You have some idea of the East coast boogey man, though, and facts be damned.

Ya that's a weird game. But did you see that good win they had over Virginia tho?

 

[red recluse]

albany. add that coach to the “post-lon” list. i put him there with self and sampson in drawing up plays and getting points out of timeouts.

Charlottesville is an elitist east coast college town. It is about an hour and a half from the DC suburbs. It is not representative of Southern Virginia or rural Virginia. But why let reality impact your analysis of me.

I am glad an east coast team was the first 1 to lose to a16.
