2008 NCAA Tournament discussion

[KLin]

Why is oglesby shooting so fast? They should have held onto the ball and ran a play instead of throwing up a 3. :roll:

 

[tfinch2]

Tampa is upset city.

 

[KLin]

First time 4 lower seeds have advanced at the same site.

 

[KLin]

Oglesby sucks big donkey balls. Give it to Stitt, he's 4/4 from 3pt range!!

 

[Nitemare]

Damn Oglesby is loving that back iron, good going Clemson, you officially fucked my bracket.

how far you have them?

 

[tfinch2]

This is the first time I've seen Clemson play. Does Oglesby always shoot them out of the game like that? He was like 1-13.

And I thought I was dumb, taking them to the sweet sixteen!

I knew their free throw misery would catch up to them, just didn't think the Tigers would tank in the 1st.

3 of my Final 4 are still in it, 7 of my Final 8, only 11 out of my 16 left though

O shoots like a madman. He has no concept of range, and will pop the ball from 25' without a moment's hesitation. Usually, he makes his share, which is why Purnell gives him the permanent green light.

Yeah, I've seen him square up and shoot from well outside of NBA range before, but he was brickin like a mofo tonight.

NC. Of course. You should have seen enough of the Tigers this season not to take them to the four. Good call on Davidson, though I don't see them going to the 8.

edit: Greer. But I'm a Wolfpack man. Leaving me in "wait 'til next year" mode for too many years now. At least I'm not so rabid I can't enjoy Tar Heel success.

4 of my final 4 are still in it, 8 of the final 8, and 14 of my 16. so my bracket is still intact for now.

 

[CallMeJoe]

All of my 8 are still in, and 14 of 16.

State fan as well, just haven't had anything to root for in a long time. I'd rather see Duke succeed than UNC, even though I picked UNC winning it all over UCLA.

I wasn't going to admit it (too many Duke haters lurking), but I'm happy to see any NC team do well - even the Blue Devils. Living in Greer, but my heart's still in NC.

edit: I have the 'Heels taking down Stanford.

Not saying I like em, just like em better than the Tarheels, but I only root for them to lose when they play other ACC teams

 

[hdeck]

after day 2 i'm still in the 98+ percentile. yay me! unfortunately 3 of my 2nd round games are already wrong so that kinda sucks. the weekend's games should be pretty fun to watch, though.

 

[chuckywang]

You want your team to instantly improve? Have them play Duke.

If Clemson played like that against Duke, the game would be over by halftime.

 

[JohnCU]

well this is a shitty thing to wake up to. oh well, good season tigers.
