Incredibly stupid shot selection by Young.

35 footers. It's horrendous.

And then they throw it away. OK now trying to give it away. But RI's offense is pretty woeful right now, too.

 

[NJ_Sox_Fan]

Another big 3

Live and die by the 3

 

[johnmd20]

Penn up 8 on Kansas with 5 minutes left in the half.

I know we're all watching URI, but the Penn-Kansas game is interesting...

I'm sorry. I've got nothing but love for you Dawg. Penn only up 4 now. I mushed them.

 

[Joe D Reid]

As a Penn alum I'm going to have to ask you both to take this to the old "Pssst" thread.

 

[johnmd20]

Huge 3 by RI. That was tremendous, they should pull this one out.

You said it

EEEE!

THREE!

It's Thursday and OU still sucks.

Still relevant. They were the least deserving team in the tourney, I’m surprised the game needed OT.

 

[RedOctober3829]

I thought OU would find it easier to get out of the Big 12 and let Young get freed up a bit more. Credit to URI. They made some big time plays in OT.

I guess the big 12 conference is just a lot tougher than I thought. Still, OU's in the bottom half of it.

 

[johnmd20]

UNCG keeping decent pace with the Zags.

 

[DJnVa]

UNCG keeping decent pace with the Zags.

Now down just 1.

 

[Infield Infidel]

He looks like every dude who rolls up to a pick up game with long hair, a headband, sweatpants and a scruffy beard and just hits EVERYTHING

 

[johnmd20]

UNCG has bricked up two threes in the past couple of minutes that were just so horrendous looking. But the game is tied.

 

[wibi]

Gonzaga cant make a basket to close out right now ... Fuck

 

[johnmd20]

Wow, there is only 1:39 left and UNCG has a 2 point lead. Zags have to put it together here.

 

[Ale Xander]

TNT jinx

 

[johnmd20]

That FT was a true brick, Fultz style.

 

[Ale Xander]

Thank you UNCG for that pass

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

It's weird how in the tournament you can go into a game thinking you don't care about who wins but then as the game goes on you figure out you do.

I like having Gonzaga in the tournament, and who cares about another North Carolina team. But I also really hate quasi-home court advantage in the tournament. So, I find myself rooting for UNCG.

 

[wibi]

D up ... get the stop and make the last shot

 

[johnmd20]

Norvell from DOWNTOWN.

 

[wibi]

NORVELL JR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Ale Xander]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

 

[NJ_Sox_Fan]

Bracket saving 3 there possibly

 

[DJnVa]

Wow...big shot!

 

[johnmd20]

These last two possessions by UNCG sealed their fate. Horrendous pass and then, on the next possession, a worse shot.

 

[DJnVa]

Eh, most folks likely have Zags going pretty far, likely evens out.

 

[Ale Xander]

FULL NELSON APPLIED

 

[wibi]

What a stupid foul by alonso

 

[johnmd20]

I'm not sure how good a call that was, that was an Academy level dive.

Add that one to the list.

 

[Ale Xander]

If those kids were smarter, they'd be walk-on candidates at Chapel Hill.

 

[Ale Xander]

Oh boy

 

[johnmd20]

Had a chance.

 

[wibi]

I'm not sure how good a call that was, that was an Academy level dive.

Both arms extended on the push is going to get that call every time

 

[wibi]

I know what Gonzaga will be doing at practice tomorrow...

 

[Ale Xander]

Someone hit a fucking free throw please

 

[johnmd20]

Why throw that crappy pass? UNCG really covered themselves in excrement at the end there.

 

[Ale Xander]

dumb pass.

4 isn't insurmountable

 

[Ale Xander]

Let's go Gaels

Let's go Quakers

 

[Nator]

You know, if Dad just gave his daughter a ride to Jessica's house, he probably could've avoided emptying her college fund to install that pool.

 

[johnmd20]

It isn't going to happen for Penn but it would have been fun.

 

[canderson]

Kansas is so beatable. It’s too bad the Big 12 is too scared of them come tournament time to play well.

 

[pokey_reese]

Ramblers are making it hard to root for them...

 

[johnmd20]

Splash from 3 for the Ramblers, utilizing incredible ball movement!

Tie game, 1 minute left.

 

[Ale Xander]

RAMBLE RAMBLE

 

[Ale Xander]

25 what are you doing????

Pass out
