I have a 3 team parlay going.  One bet is SFU getting 6 and another is the over at 135.  I already hit on Providence.  It pays 6:1.  Man, that would be a nice make up after the gut punch PC loss.

My heart is fucking pounding right now. Tough foul to call there, but from the ref's vantage point up the sideline the shooter's body obscured the defender's arm and hand.

Overtime would be a disaster.

Stephen Fucking Austin. Overtime is exactly the way this game needs to be decided. Holy shit.

You happen to have a citation on that? Because that seems really unlikely.
I thought it was ESPN, but looks like it must have been bad info, most newspapers (in stories about the Buffet offer) seem to say the closest documented was 59 of 63.

Any UVa fan who is honest will admit to having only one thought when the #1 seed was announced...oh shit we'll be the first #1 to lose a first round game. You remember what happened the last time the football team was ranked #1? It's healthier to have zero confidence and anticipate spectacular failure.
I had the same thought and so did my "2nd year" roommate

canderson, SFA did a great job to hang in there and not give up after VCU made that big run. I hope they go a long way. I hope we get a chance to play them in the tourney next year.

Webber went to the same high school I did.
 
We have NO basketball history to speak of.

Weber got absolutely mugged there. I'm pulling for SFA, but I can't believe the refs swallowed their whistles on that one.
