2012 NCAA Tournament thread

Pitino only cheated on his wife, got a woman pregnant, then forced her into getting an abortion. What's not to like?

 

Didn't he then get his assistant coach to marry her to keep her quiet?

Yeah, but that was admirable.....

[Exile on Waveland]

Jesus, I'm gonna get a cardinals world series and KU title in the same year.

 

Kansas isn't going to win the title. I really doubt they beat Ohio State, for that matter. You were right, however, that their region got blown up -- because of Marshall's injury. (And I'm not a Kansas hater at all, I have nothing against them, they're just almost certainly not going to win this title. Heck, I hope they do win the title -- because "Kansas" is not spelled "Kentucky.")

As long as Taylor isn't jacking up 3's on fast breaks, KU should be good.

He got his assistant to watch the entrance to make sure no one came in while Pitino had sex with her on a dirty restaurant floor. I guess he wanted to make sure that no one was walking through that door.

Not looking good for 'ville early.

Eh, they have played like a pile and are only down 6 points.

[Guest]

It feels like Kentucky should be up about 15 right now.

[hawkeyecub]

Adding to the obvious, it's a miracle this thing is only 7. 3 bad charge calls are key.

 

As much as I hate it, I'm amazed with this UK team. Most talented team in the country but they stay unselfish and play their ass off on defense while keeping a pretty mature demeanor. They're way different from the '10 team.

Yeah, I don't really have a problem rooting for UK right now. That's probably due to the total ass that is the rest of this final four, though.

Quit blowing dunks.

 

Also the refs are really screwing Louisville on potential held balls.

Makes up for screwing Kentucky on the charge calls.

[snoodmonger]

dieng is a mad man on the boards.

[Guest]

I can't believe how badly Kentucky is getting killed on the boards. Louisville has 15 offensive rebounds.

[Sosa21MVP]

Yeah those poor Wildcats, they never get a call.

[snoodmonger]

The way Davis comes over to help, that ORB + stickback is available a lot.

Damn it. Louisville had a better chance than Kansas or Ohio State, imo.

[Magnetic Curses]

i think ohio state has the best chance with their athletes and thomas and sullinger down low. not much of a chance, but i always think that kentucky is invincible and then they crap the bed.

[hawkeyecub]

Disagree. They play that way (MKG foul trouble, Jones no-show, Teague invisible most of 2nd half) and they get beat by either team Monday night.

 

This should be a great game.

The one difference I see is that this team isn't full of immature clowns or guys who want to get theirs first. I think they're better than UNC '09 or maybe Florida '07. Possibly further back than that.

KenPom's predicted score of the UK-Louisville game: 69-62.

Right, but what are the odds all those breaks go against Kentucky again on Monday?

That John Wall team was embarrassing

[Derwood]

So pretty much any incidental contact + defender flopping = charge call, regardless of position on the floor or if the defender is moving? Can the NCAA just fire all the refs and start over?

[snoodmonger]

Jeebus w the charges.
