Re: The Official 2009 "Running Commentary of Every Single Tourney Game" Thread
Siena vs Ohio State was not the game of the year. It was exciting because of the two big shots at the end of each overtime, though. It was a sloppy game with 40 combined turnovers. Siena shot 33% but made every clutch shot when they needed to. Ohio State made 74% of their free throws but missed three of four that would have clinched the game in regulation. Siena dominated the boards and had 21 offensive rebounds. Ohio State should be ashamed with a size difference and still getting out-rebounded by 18.Comment

I've come to the conclusion that Thad Matta is not a good basketball coach. Good recruiter, yeah, not impressed with his coaching ability."You make your name in the regular season, and your fame in the postseason." - Clyde Frazier

He fits in perfectly at Ohio State. He can recruit, but if you ask him to coach up said talent, you're going to be disappointed.
But if he keeps pulling in the same talent, I won't have any problems. OSU Basketball is always going to be second fiddle, unfortunately.Too Old To Game Club

Putting the blame on the coaching may have merit. But Skip couldn't coach defense either.Originally posted by VP Richard M. NixonI always remember that whatever I have done in the past, or may do in the future, Duke University is responsible one way or the other.

Not sure if these are 100% accurate as I got them off another forum, but BCS Conference records so far.
Big XII: 6-0
Big East: 6-1
Pac-10: 5-1
Big Ten: 4-3
ACC 3-4
SEC: 1-2Comment

BC is no more of an upset than Maryland beating BC.
FSU should have beat Wisconsin.
Wake, an upset. But @ the same time, no one is surprised. Everyone knew coming in Wake was flaky. They were 6-5 vs the bottom 6 of the ACC. 5-1 vs the top 5.
I thought Clemson got done wrong by the committee. They shouldn't have been seen as BC's equal, who was overrated. Then the Tigers got Michigan, the best of the double digit seeds, IMO.Originally posted by VP Richard M.

Interesting bit of info on ESPN just now.
Since 1985, 40 times a 1 or 2 seed has won their 1st round game by 11 points of fewer. 15 times, that team has lost in the 2nd round. Only 9 of those 40 have reached the final four
and none of those have won the title.
Over the last 6 tournaments it has happened 10 times. 5 of those teams have lost in the second round.
That applies to Pitt and Memphis this year.Comment

Day 3 set to begin.
Should be a good game between UCLA and Villanova. I've got the Bruins in my bracket, but not real confident in the pick.Comment

I've got Nova in my Final Four so if they get knocked off here my bracket is officially cooked.
I'm not sure where I have them in my OS Pick 'em bracket since I didn't update it, but I think I've got them in the FF there as well.Comment
