I can't believe NC State missed that many FTs to clinch it. But now St Louis is down 2 players who fouled out.

The St Louis-NC State game completely fell off my radar.

I had NDST in that game, but changed when I saw I had 3 12 teams winning-thought that was one too many. will kick myself if that's the game that stops my perfect string. Of course st. louis may give their game back to NCST |

Hard to believe that this NC State - St. Louis game has had only 2 lead changes.

Wouldn't the coach have mentioned in the huddle, don't you be the one to foul, TJ Warren, you have 4 fouls. Idiots.

Once the ball gets over there though you have to foul, so it had to be Warren. Hard to game plan that.

"Keep making defensive stops."
Seriously? Those defensive stops were the other team unable to make freaking foul shots. |

What a sick comeback by St Louis. I though they made a mistake going for the tie at the end, they should have gone for 3 and the win with Warren fouled out and them unable to make a FT.
St Louis really showed how important it is having veteran leadership. |

Warren could have been the one to guard the inbounder. That's just stupid coaching. He's their best player with 4 fouls, he should be the last one that commits the foul.

The timing of these games has been perfect. Just as Uconn is wrapping up St Louis is making their push, then that ends and the ND State game is in the final minute.

there is something wrong with end-game basketball when the last 1:12 takes 15 minutes.

Whistle happy all of a sudden.
Crazy for this kid to get into the game, touch the ball immediately and then hit two free throws cold as ice with just over a minute left in OT. |

NDSU has only been D1 for 5 years. This is going to be a big one for the school.

Woot! Will be curious to see if Saul Phillips is the guy that takes over Wisconsin once Bo Ryan leaves. As much as I'd like to see Tony Bennett take over, I don't think Tony's going to 'settle' for Wisconsin when Bo's done. Last edited by mauchow : 03-20-2014 at 09:28 PM. |

WTF was that possession by Oklahoma? Why all the kick outs? I know it's basically over, but there were three shots there I would have been ok with my team taking in this situation before they finally took a shot.

A 2 seed going down would pretty much end any talk of a billion dollar bracket.

My son picked both NDSU and Harvard and he's pretty stoked. That's why I don't do picks anymore, I just defer to him.
