Butler up one on Florida at the under 8 timeout.

Lathum · 03-23-2007, 07:57 PM

I would love to see the gators get knocked off

Easy Mac · 03-23-2007, 07:57 PM

I don't think think I've ever seen a tourney where teams were so perfectly matched in the Sweet Sixteen. So far, all 6 games have been pretty exciting for the whole game. I'd have to say the selection committee got this season right.

Easy Mac · 03-23-2007, 08:10 PM

How was that a foul on Butler? He was getting knocked back with elbows, thats why he gave up room.

And James Brown is absolutely horrible. Is he even at the game?

Easy Mac · 03-23-2007, 08:33 PM

kingfc22 · 03-23-2007, 08:34 PM

Wow. What a forced shot and he was able to hit.

INDalltheway · 03-23-2007, 08:34 PM

great travel

BrianD · 03-23-2007, 08:34 PM

That should have been a travel. He changed his pivot-foot.

Karlifornia · 03-23-2007, 08:35 PM

Yeah...that guy Green really had happy feet there.

SackAttack · 03-23-2007, 08:38 PM

Okay, so we're going to have four 1's and three 2's in the elite eight?

wake me up when baseball season starts.

kingfc22 · 03-23-2007, 08:40 PM

Eh, he was just playing under NBA rules on that last play. 4 steps is all good.

miami_fan · 03-23-2007, 08:41 PM

Call me crazy but somehow I want the teams that played the best during the season to compete for the championship.

Karlifornia · 03-23-2007, 08:43 PM

These sweet 16 games have been fantastic. Just because they haven't ended up being upsets doesn't take away from the quality and competitiveness of the games.

Lathum · 03-23-2007, 09:22 PM

does anyone else hear the insanly annoying people who must be sitting right behind the announcers in the UNC-USC game?

Nice 1st half by the Trojans. Final four looking possible.

Agreed. I'm really glad I didn't go out and stayed home to watch this.

Yeah I know.

After the Trojans inconsistent play in the Pac-10, I never thought they would get this far. I thought they would play Texas tough, but didn't think they could run with NC.

Lathum · 03-23-2007, 10:16 PM

UNC looks really out of sync to start the half

Ditto all of that, but I like what I'm seeing in the first 5 minutes of the 2nd half.

Lathum · 03-23-2007, 10:26 PM

UNc is playing very sloppy and lazy.

st.cronin · 03-23-2007, 10:26 PM

USC seems more athletic than the Heels, which I wasn't expecting.

Karlifornia · 03-23-2007, 10:28 PM

USC is definitely one of the most athletic teams in the country. Their weakness is depth, and the 4th foul on Gibson there could change the tide of the game.

Yep, I spoke too soon. That is going to hurt

LloydLungs · 03-23-2007, 10:33 PM

Floyd's going to have to pull a rabbit out of the hat now. That big white guy for USC is going to get killed.

bhlloy · 03-23-2007, 10:33 PM

Tide has turned. I would be absolutely amazed if USC holds out now. Behind Gibson they have absolutely nothing, and if NC just throws the ball inside to Hansborough and Wright I don't see how we can stop them.

LloydLungs · 03-23-2007, 10:39 PM

Yep. Gotta get Gibson back in NOW and pray. Otherwise they lose. Wilkinson is completely inept.

Oof..yeah. I think you better just keep Gibson in as long as possible. If they save him for too long they'll be down 7 and it will be too late.

Fouts · 03-23-2007, 10:46 PM

Way too many offensive rebounds for those guys. Too bad they never call 3 second violations.

st.cronin · 03-23-2007, 10:46 PM

ball game

st.cronin · 03-23-2007, 10:49 PM

I think Brendan Wright could tie his shoes without bending over.

kingfc22 · 03-23-2007, 10:51 PM

UNC is running away with this.

....Bout time SC hit a jumper.

Lathum · 03-23-2007, 10:52 PM

Man, it's amazing how every #1 seed can just turn it on when they need to.

kingfc22 · 03-23-2007, 10:53 PM

Grab a freaking rebound!

Fouts · 03-23-2007, 10:55 PM

A lot to do with depth. I guess some guys don't mind going to a big college as the #7 or 8 guy with a good chance at the Championship.

LloydLungs · 03-23-2007, 10:55 PM

Well, this puppy's over. Not too disappointed. SC was playing with house money at this point. I barely expected a winning record after the Francis murder. Sweet 16 was a really good run. You almost never see a Floyd team embarrassed on the boards like this, but as much talent as SC has, they only have one big guy. Just don't have the horses down low. Yet.

That has been a concept that always amazes me. If it was me I would rather be a starter at Pepperdine then the #10 guy on UCLA. Especialy with how many games are on TV these days even guys from smaller schools get exposer.

Lathum · 03-23-2007, 10:58 PM

don't look now but the UNLV game is down to 4

kingfc22 · 03-23-2007, 10:58 PM

Ummm, just noticed that UNLV is within 4 from what the scoreboard on top says. Interesting.

kingfc22 · 03-23-2007, 10:58 PM

doh! Lathum beat me to it

JonInMiddleGA · 03-23-2007, 10:59 PM

Okay, Billy Packer can now officially be declared too senile to be on the air any longer.

I can understand how the traveling call wasn't made, but after watching the replay they just showed, for him to try to say that he wasn't sure that a traveling occurred ... damn, he's lost his freakin' mind.

QFT

they didn't even show the easier travel to see, when the guy actually switched pivot feet. stupid, stupid, stupid.

kingfc22 · 03-23-2007, 11:02 PM

What a weak call there.

Packer to me always sounds like one of those guys who hates his job.

Lathum · 03-23-2007, 11:03 PM

UGH, Technical foul on Floyd.

It seems OJ Mayo is going to play for the right guy.
