This "Sandman" or "Santham" or whatever his name is from St. Mary's is a beast. Watched him dominate Gonzaga in their conference title game.

omar samhan. and yeah, but he's a ****.

 

[SoonersRule]

Thus far, I haven't seen one team we would beat straight up. Not even the 15 seeds.

 

[MercedeSooner]

I think we could have kept it within 10 points with the Mean Green.

 

[NickZepp]

St. Marys up 8.

 

[MercedeSooner]

Utah St over Duke lol.

 

[stormspencer]

St. Marys up 8.

5-0 in two of my brackets....but soon to be 5-1 unless Richmond gets their act together.....go Arachnids!

 

[MercedeSooner]

Butler UTEP - lets see a buzzer beater.

 

[red recluse]

butler/utep just tipped, with our boy mike sanzere officiating. thought people might like to know since everyone has utep going to the sw16. 'cept me. go bulldogs!

 

[MercedeSooner]

Im a butler guy also. tough matchup though utep aint no regular 12 seed.

 

[NickZepp]

St. Mary's up 9 but their star player Samhan just got his 4th foul and is out for a while.

 

[red recluse]

i know. but butler isn't weak like gonzaga when it comes to the tournament. they need to rebound though, dang. and no flops.

 

[NickZepp]

UTEP should have been an 8/9 seed at worst. This isn't that great a match-up for Butler.

 

[MercedeSooner]

gonna be a good game whichever side you want to win.

St Marys is a good team, fun to watch.

 

[red recluse]

none of these four teams should be playing each other. like boca said. they should be playing big conference schools.

 

[NickZepp]

That was some sick transition play by UTEP.

 

[MercedeSooner]

Final score Butler 34 UTEP 33

 

[Stanley]

Watching these games just reminds me how bad OU truly was this year. There is some good, especially defensive, basketball being played today.

 

[NickZepp]

St. Mary's wins.

 

[NickZepp]

UTEP up by 5 over Butler 2 minutes till halftime.

 

[NickZepp]

Character hits one at the buzzer. UTEP up 6 at the half 33-27
