This Cinnci Kentucky game getting a little heated, BTW from now on when the Analyst say a certain team shouldn't be in I'm picking that team to win a round or two. UCLA this year, and I can't remember who they were but I think it was a team the last 2 years that was said shouldn't have made it in the tourney and did pretty good

Just because Ellis is wildly throwing his body around doesn't mean WCS fouled him. Sometimes you just have to laugh at how terrible college refs are.

Cincinnati in trouble now.

Yeah I can't see a team with a lack of offensive fire power coming back from down 10 vs Kentucky

Cincy just didn't have the horses, but Kentucky is beatable. Very much so. The 2012 team puts this team to shame.

I don't know if I see this squad going all the way.

Well this Cincinnatti played above expectations this year. I think they only lose Jermaine Sanders and one other guy so they should be back strong next year.

I spent all conference season trying to figure out why more teams didn't play zone against Arizona. They aren't a very good outside shooting team and they don't have a lot of answers for it so far.

D'Angelo Russell is struggling mightily shooting the ball right now, but my goodness the passing ability is always incredibly on point.

Wow factor indeed.

If Ohio State is not going to cover York, the zone is pointless. Arizona has solved things since the start. Time for Ohio State to try a different type of zone if they really don't want to go man to man.

When they get the ball in the hands of Rondae Hollis Jefferson in the middle of the zone; he has been a very good passer either with a quick kick out or a pass to Ashley or Tarczewski down low. Ohio State has done a pretty good job contesting those shots down low that Arizona hasn't finished them as much as I thought they would. I can't comment on why Pac 12 teams didn't go zone but my guess is they felt like Arizona could still force the ball in the paint.

Ohio State did a great job down low in the 1st half. They stop the penetration inherently with the zone, but York is one outside shooter that they really have to cover. They can get away with leaving perimeter players open when he's on the bench and collapse to sell out on the shots down low like they did, but they might want to try the Box and 1 or something to keep a man on him. They got out-rebounded pretty badly, but that's to be expected.
