For Tree and any others who need it:

 

UNC wins 68-47

 

WVU up 71-67 with 3 min to go

[TruffleShuffle]

i generally don't like wvu just because the state is a complete waste, but thuggins coaching there makes it even easier to root against them.

[Andy]

Big shot Lavender. Ties it up with a minute-plus to go.

[Guest]

Wow, how was he that open?

[Andy]

Hahahahahahaha at WVU's inbounds defense there.

 

78-74 Muskies with 24 to play.

[Derwood]

WFU effed this one up pretty good

[TruffleShuffle]

see ya next year thuggie

[JimSorgi]

That was a scary, but very fun game.

[TruffleShuffle]

for some reason i love bill raftery but can't stand dick vitale. guess it kinda seems like raftery is just being himself and enjoying the game, but vitale seems too interested in self-promotion.

lou'ville-ten should be the game of the night.

[hawkeyecub]

Am I the only one who saw (reading lips) Pitino tell Terrence Williams "I'm gonna effing kill you"?

 

If you're watching on dvr, check it out, it's at the 17:51 mark. "You do that one more time, I'm gonna effing kill you. One more effing time you do that....and I'm gonna effing kill you."

 

Good stuff.

Not if we can't hit our threes. Tennessee's shot two so far and missed both - Lofton has to have a good night.

[Derwood]

oh, i see what's going on. I get the HD feed of the national broadcast, but as soon as local coverage switches me back to stay with Louisville/TEN, bye-bye hi-def. that's a bunch of crap

[CubbieBleu]

Heels got tripped up early tonight by Washington State's ability to slow it down to a half court game, but Ellington and Green adjusted and came up big time, and the defense was solid and held things down.

[dew1679666265]

Tennessee apparently forgot the objective to basketball is to score points.

[TruffleShuffle]

man this game has been bad. louisville has turned it over 8 times in 9 minutes and still is up double digits. a lot more sloppy than i expected from these teams so far.

Tennessee just simply cannot score. 0 for 5 from three and sloppy play down low is not a good combination to try to win games.

[treebird]

i have tennessee in the championship game

 

if they lose here, my bracket is definitely going to get beat by my girlfriend's bracket

[TruffleShuffle]

bruce pearl looks like his head is about to explode

[TruffleShuffle]

don't know what pearl said during that break, but tennessee just looked about 100x better that last trip down the court. some behind the back dribbling, behind the back passes, quick ball movement. looks like they just loosened up in the last 2 minutes.

All the Vols need is a little momentum to get things going well.

 

Tennessee plays a very emotional style and things tend to snowball one way or the other very quickly.

i believe you meant to use the word "skyball" here

Sorry. That's exactly what I meant. :oops:

[hawkeyecub]

What an ugly game. 25 total turnovers in less than 17 minutes? Most of these are just dumb decisions or incredibly sloppy ball handling.

[TruffleShuffle]

another ucla opponent well on their way to 40 points.
