****Official NCAA Tournament Week 2 Thread****

Why do they continue to allow the other team to shoot 3's repeatedly?

 

[SoopaSooner]

He shot that close to half court!

 

[NickZepp]

Damn how can you defend guys that can make it from about 40 feet?

 

[Sooner Quick]

You'd have to defend the half court line!!!

 

[red recluse]

both teams need to slow it down and think a bit.

its not that they're "allowing" it. you dont wanna play so tight that u always foul bc they get to score with no time running off and ft's are a high % shot. they play off a little up high thinking these guys SURELY wont take that shot....but they do...and they make it.

 

[Sooner Quick]

I'm not sure, both teams are playing well and hitting shots. Maybe not thinking is doing it! lol

There's only two players who are willing to shoot the ball for Xavier. I think I would deny them the ball and allow the other players to try to beat me.

well xavier and ksu had three straight turnovers, that's why i wanted them to settle down. didn't want this game to end ugly since it's been so beautiful so far.

All you can do is tip your cap. This game reminds me of the Syracuse/UCONN game last year.

 

[Sooner Quick]

Ali-Frazier!!! Answer after answer!

 

[Sooner Quick]

Pullen!!!!!! 3!!!

 

[cfin5256]

This game is insane. Huge time for Pullen to start hitting. This game would be over if KSU would hit more FT's.

 

[NickZepp]

I want this game to just keep going.

 

[NickZepp]

Looks like Kansas State will hang on.

 

[SoopaSooner]

Dang.

Looks like KSU is gonna pull it out.

 

[Sooner Quick]

Wow someone missed a 3! Should be ballgame with Clemente at the line.

 

[Sid]

Xavier finally missed one.

 

[Sooner Quick]

Sucks someone has to lose a game like that.

 

[SoopaSooner]

This game will benefit Butler.
