I watched the Dook game....Wow!!!! Too bad so sad   . It was actually a pretty fun game to watch.
Is Texas reverting to form??????
BYU has SDSU's number this season, and really seemed to control them all game.
And what the heck happened to Arizona? Didn't get to see it.
UK got a much needed win, and Florida really didn't look good either.
The Racers cap off yet another regular season championship; now we just gotta win our tourney. I think we could give a good accounting at the Dance again this year.
So, does KU get the top spot this week???? |
Me, I did figure the Cards had a shot at home against Pitt. The Panthers are good, but there are no dominating teams this year, and anyone can lose. The refs did their best to give it to them, however. At the end of regulation, with 2 ticks left, Louisville got a guy free on the inbounds for an open layup for the win, and he was hammered from the front and back. No call. As for that T at the end of OT, which gave Pitt ANOTHER chance, the Cardinal player broke away in the final seconds. He could have dribbled to the corner and ran out the clock, but he went for the snowbird to give Louisville the 5-point margin with 0.3 left. Since humans can't react that fast, the clock ran out, and a cheerleader ran onto the court and, to make matters worse, grabbed the ball and flipped it towards the hoop in celebration. The zebras huddled, put time back on the clock, and assessed the T, allowing Pitt to get within 3 with the 2 FTs. Then they got the ball inbounds and came sorta kinda close to hitting the prayer for a 2nd OT. Hey, I'm not a Louisville fan, nor a Pitt hater, but I was p!$$ed myself at the calls.
As for Duke, it does make this last week in the ACC a bit more interesting. More on that later.
And Texas? Until the Longhorns and Rick Barnes shows me otherwise, I always expect the same from them . . . a good season, and an early summer.
I thought that BYU/SDSU game could go either way, and never thought it would be so easy for the Cougars. Man, I hope BYU gets a 1-seed . . . in the same bracket as my Tar Heels.
I also thought that UCLA/'Zona game would be close, but I didn't see the action either. What happened? The Bruins won in Pauley. It's not like it's the first time, right?
Yes, a good win for Cal's kids, though again, no shock in Rupp. And what happened to the Gators? Well, maybe they ain't as good as some think, and only lead the SEC due to "parity" . . . maybe they all suck.
Remember, they got spanked at home early by the Buckeyes, and lost in in-state powerhouses UCF and Jacksonville too.
I do hope your Racers earn a bid, since they've done so much right so far to get one. And yes, they could win a game in the NCAAs, if they get the automatic. Hey, last year Ohio U. beat Georgetown!
And does KU get the # 1?

Who takes the top spot? well thats still up in the air (but of course I'm hoping its my Buckeyes)

Well, you got it, for at least a week. But as this season should have taught us, it really don't mean JaKaacH, right?
Update soon.
