Which team is supposed to be favored here? Winthrop is playing better, running harder, and wants it much more than UT right now.

 

if winthrop wins, i don't even think most people will be surprised. it seemed like this was 'the' upset that everybody was calling. i was so close to picking winthrop, but i chickened out...i had tenn losing next round anyway, though.

This analyst's exclamations are the comedic highlight of my day.

[Andy]

Crap, Marquette's taken the lead on Bama and Nevada's back down by nine.

 

Pretty much the complete opposite of what I wanted to happen there.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

that was a shot.

[Andy]

WOW what a shot by James Lofton to pretty much win it for UT.

[abuck1220]

'where did he get the courage to take that shot!?'

 

um...there was like one second left...did you expect him to just take a knee or something? nah, this shot is too scary, i'll just curl up in a ball.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

I hate Tennessee.

[HerbalK]

sidenote: the misuse of the word courage is something that angers me to no end.

I thought the same thing. Courage? Where did you get the courage to make that right turn? Um, I have to turn right there to get home.

[abuck1220]

did the color guy just have a baby or something? he really needs to pace himself.

[Andy]

did the color guy just have a baby or something? he really needs to pace himself.

Seriously. The dude practically had an orgasm about the ball not touching anybody.

[Chocolate Milk]

I wish I could actually leave work at a resonable time. I'd rather WATCH the games then updating scores... :cry:

[Derwood]

If Bama and Montana win, I'll be 3-3 on the day :cry:

Lofton, Chris Lofton. The announcers didn't do their homework calling for CJ to get the ball, Lofton has hit more big shots all year than anyone else on the team. I'm glad to see hatred for Tennessee basketball again. It's been so long since they've done anything in basketball that most everyone else in the SEC felt sorry for them. Winthrop was a heck of a team. I can't see the Vols making it past the sweet sixteen if they get past Wichita State, simply due to the lack of size inside. This is great though. First win in the tourney in a long time.

If Bama and Montana win, I'll be 3-3 on the day :cry:

I'm 5-0, but Nevada is probably going to ruin that by losing to Montana. I'll take 6-1 though if Bama can hold on, please.

[goonys evil twin]

If Bama and Montana win, I'll be 3-3 on the day :cry:

 

I'd need Bama and Nevada to go 6-0.

I needed Nevada and Marquette. Not looking good for me.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

I'm looking at 5-2 if Montana and Bama hold on(picked Marquette). No second weekend teams lost yet.

Unless IU loses later tonight, it's exceedingly unlikely that I'll lose a 2nd-weekend team on Day 1. Which is much better than last year. when I lost Pitt, an elite 8 team, in one of the first games.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

5 quick points and an offensive foul drawn, attaway Marquette

 

Novak again!

Duh, I have Montana not Nevada.

[Coach C]

Wow, Nevada is getting smoked. 80-66 Montana with 1 minute to go in the 2nd half.

[goonys evil twin]

I'm so bad at this I have to keep looking to see who I have.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

hahahaha, Harbaugh is INTO this game.

[Mark_R]

I'll be 7-0 if Marquette wins.
