Tenn smoking Iowa. I don't really expect NC or Duke to have much trouble today.

VT should be on upset alert, but I like them to win that game.

Two most likely upsets IMO Buffalo over TT and tOSU over Houston. Houston has been playing all that well their past handful of games. Not shooting it well except the guard that did all the scoring Friday. Big man at tOSU a bad matchup as well. Not predicting a UH loss, but it definitely could happen.

I think Oregon will get by UCI as well.
 
what a difference in Iowa between the first and second half.

this game is exactly why I focus more on the mental these days with players than the physical and statistical. Iowa came out ready to fight in the second half and their increased "chippiness" whittled a 20 point deficit down to 1 point. with under 6 remaining.
 
NCAA PREVIEW: No. 6 Buffalo vs. No. 3 Texas Tech
https://texastech.com/news/2019/3/23/mens-basketball-ncaa-preview-no-6-buffalo.aspx

Apparently, Texas Tech received very little national respect at the beginning of the season ...

POLLS: Texas Tech is at No. 10 in the NCAA NET Rankings, No. 9 in the Associated Press Top-25 and No. 10 in the USA TODAY Coaches Poll after winning the program's first-ever Big 12 Conference regular-season championship. The Bulls are ranked No. 15 in the nation. The Red Raiders have now been ranked in the AP Top-25 and USA TODAY Coaches Poll for 16 straight weeks after being unranked entering the season following last year's NCAA Elite Eight run. Tech first entered the AP poll in the fourth week of the season at No. 20 and climbed to No. 8 in Week 10. The highest ranking in program history came last season at No. 6.
 
Zion needs to be attacking Fall to get him out of the game instead of shooting 3s. Suspect that is being discussed in this timeout.

OMG. What a series of plays there. Only Duke is that good but more importantly, that lucky.

Plus Dawkins was bumped on his shot but, of course, no call

Sometimes the officiating is just terrible. Other times it’s deliberate. Shameful.

On the put back? No way you can call that there.

UCF had it. Can't give Zion and and-one chance there, and you have to block out. Terrible lapse in judgment not blocking out. He said he was pushed, but he wasn't. He just didn't put a body on his guy.

Tough break. Would have opened the bracket contests wide open. lol
