Hedge -- Great posts today. I miss my Carolina Basketball, too.hedge wrote:Are we just getting old or what? This place used to be a hive of activity the first weekend of the tourny. Maybe it's just the foregone conclusion nature of this year's tourny that's got everybody down. Well, everybody but UK fans. Pretty sure most UK fans are feeling the way UNC fans felt in 2009 (and to a lesser extent in 2005). Admittedly, it's best not to yap too much, lest the unthinkable occur. Still, I preferred the way I felt in 2009 to the way I feel this year. We could have easily lost to Harvard yesterday. Goddamn. On a bright note, I think we can beat Arkansas. Hell, I think we *could* beat any team out there save UK. But we just as easily could lose to any team still out there as well. Oh well, survive and advance...

Yeah. Wish they'd both start posting again, stu.

Degualle always joins the bracket contest. I assume that he just shows up here before tournament time to grab the link.

Heh. The Ron Mexico and Crow entries both had Iowa State in the Final Four.

Myself and Doc should show up to DS wedding / reception dressed as Dumb and Dumber OR Buff Bagwell and Scotty Riggs.
Sure, I've been called a xenophobe, but the truth is, I'm not. I honestly just feel that America is the best country and the other countries aren't as good. That used to be called patriotism.

Re: Ostensibly Hoops
Indeed. Although pretty much the SEC played to seed. LSU is the only team that Johnny Jones things up and choked away their game.

Re: Ostensibly Hoops
I was down in Florida for work - watched the Purdue/Cinci game and UK game in a sports bar. I just got back and I don't care about watching the Duke game so I'll get back into it starting tomorrow
I like the stinky pinky but only up to the first knuckle, I do not want a GD thumb up there--I've told her multiple times and I always catch her when she tries to pull a fast one---it's my butthole for Chrissakes I'm gonna know--so cut out the BS.

Re: Ostensibly Hoops
I can see Crow's dumbass thinking Iowa St. would beat Duke, telling people that ISU was his sleeper, hoping they would think he was some type of insider. hahaha! You stupid fuck. I know you're reading this and you're still a dumbfuck!

Re: Ostensibly Hoops
Indeed, indeed. Lost in the first-round carnage Thursday was perhaps one of the greatest NCAA chokejobs in recent years. NC State didn't want to take it but was finally forced to get the W when it was clear that LSU would not permit itself to be victorious.aTm wrote:Indeed. Although pretty much the SEC played to seed.

I can't figure LSU out. They are going to be even more talented next year and appear just as likely to piss away a game at the end.

Re: Ostensibly Hoops
Baylor's was worse. They were up 10 with like 1:30 left. 99.9% win chance on game trackers

UC is going to get crushed today. As expected.

Re: Ostensibly Hoops
The is the tournament - few teams get blown out. I expect UC to play with some pride. I think they have the right attitude for the game. They want it but they aren't talking smack about it, they just want their shot to take UK down.
As a UK fan I don't like the idea they are going to play physical - I don't want sprained ankles or broken fingers at this point.

Re: Ostensibly Hoops
I've been hesitant to post a bunch of UK stuff , although I'm sure I have.
This article is really about what old time UK fans want to see
