Wichita is giving Ohio a threshing!

Young Drachma · 03-30-2013, 08:49 PM

The Wichita State University?

Seems fitting for that region. With the two lower seeds winning today probably the two higher ones win tomorrow. Not that I want it that way.

happy for wichita state but not looking forward to the pun apocalypse

cuervo72 · 03-30-2013, 09:16 PM

There's still time left in this game, right?

mauchow · 03-30-2013, 09:20 PM

For how quickly wsu is turning the ball over, yeah plenty of time. Leave it to thomas to take a horrible shot going into tv timeout...

Crapshoot · 03-30-2013, 09:26 PM

Wow, this turned quickly.

Young Drachma · 03-30-2013, 09:27 PM

Perked up with all the talk in the thread and put on gamecast, and it has not been pretty since. This is why I don't watch this shit anymore.

mauchow · 03-30-2013, 09:33 PM

Refs were calling a lot of fouls for a bit there..

Pretty much over unless WSU stops converting free throws.

M GO BLUE!!! · 03-30-2013, 09:34 PM

Come on Ohio...

Young Drachma · 03-30-2013, 09:37 PM

It wasn't pretty, but...ugly and Final Four works okay.

Are you really being serious? There are a lot of posts in that thread you linked talk about how well Syracuse played. A lot of the posts are just about Georgetown's prospects for the future. Its a Georgetown board. Really, really petty stuff right here.

M GO BLUE!!! · 03-30-2013, 09:44 PM

I really wanted to see Michigan beat Ohio State for the title.

Buccaneer · 03-30-2013, 09:44 PM

I love it! Big, evil OSU goes down.

I'm really impressed with Wichita State in the final 2 1/2 minutes or so, nothing at all going their way, the lead disappeared with a lot of time left, and they found a way to hang on. Great stuff!

Sorry, got the link secondhanded.

NorvTurnerOverdrive · 03-30-2013, 10:00 PM

i enjoy schandenfreude as much as the next guy but cuse fans have no room to talk. go to an opposing teams sbnation blog after a cuse win and it's filled with asshats gloating.

i'd put our internet contingent up there with kentucky fans for doucheyness

korme · 03-30-2013, 10:00 PM

That was a fun game to watch. WSU was choking horribly... way to pull it out.

Chubby · 03-30-2013, 10:39 PM

i googled GTown message boards and got that link anyways.

I don't think I have ever thought about giving up watching basketball just because say the Dolphins did better than the Bills or the Hoyas did better than the 'Cuse. Cracks me up comparing JTIII to Jimmy B lol

Kodos · 03-30-2013, 10:49 PM

Not sad to see OSU lose, but not a lot of likable teams left. Looks like I am a huge Wichita State fan right now!

Only when it comes to Georgetown. Didn't anything against Indiana or Marquette.

JonInMiddleGA · 03-30-2013, 11:03 PM

Welpers, Stanford women just shit the bed against UGA. Lost by 2 in Spokane.

Fucking bitches (my women's bracket was 96.5% percentile & climbing)

So you had the #2 bracket out of 29 nationwide?

People will pick anything, you know that. Hell, there's even 1 or 2 Americans that play fantasy EPL, or so I've heard (although that sounds more like something from The Onion to me)

A math wiz could work it out though, I was like number 6,200 in the contest at that point.

Florida trying to make sure they don't have to worry about another close game.

kingfc22 · 03-31-2013, 02:57 PM

Great start for Michigan!

Matthean · 03-31-2013, 03:01 PM

Donovan might want to start working on his logistics.

Vince, Pt. II · 03-31-2013, 03:03 PM

This is absurd.

mauchow · 03-31-2013, 03:21 PM

Perhaps the B1G gets one in final four after all. Michigan should be able to do a much better job on offenee than Marquette or indiana did against Syracuse.

Matthean · 03-31-2013, 03:22 PM

Michigan is at least built to handle a zone defense. Not saying they win, but it is a nice match up for them if it happens.

Abe Sargent · 03-31-2013, 05:30 PM

Im very happy to Beilein

Mizzou B-ball fan · 03-31-2013, 05:39 PM

Oh dear. That was terrible.

mauchow · 03-31-2013, 05:44 PM

Unreal. I nearly puked

Chief Rum · 03-31-2013, 05:48 PM

What happened?

JonInMiddleGA · 03-31-2013, 06:07 PM

A sportswriter friend of mine on FB described it as "Something I will never be able to un-see"

hoopsguy · 03-31-2013, 06:42 PM

Yep, the leg basically folded at the shin like you would expect the knee to do. Really gruesome looking on the 2nd/3rd/4th replays.

I didn't get to see the earlier game today, but this one has been much more aesthetically pleasing that what transpired yesterday.

Mizzou B-ball fan · 03-31-2013, 06:49 PM

Great run for Louisville. Would love to see them win. Could do without Duke.

Ugh. Just saw that injury, and it still made me wince.
