Re: NCAA Tournament thread - Play-In games and Round of 64

It's too bad that utterly brilliant fullcourt inbounds play will be forgotten while that derpy final inbounds play is remembered.

Re: The HEX! and other World Cup Qualifiers

I think it's a pretty huge advantage for us. Other countries get to exploit altitude or tropical rain or really shitty facilities, so I think it's totally understandable that we exploit our natural advantage.

Re: NCAA Tournament thread - Play-In games and Round of 64

Thing is, it wasn't even much of a collapse. They missed one free throw (out of about 8 down the stretch) and then had that ugly turnover. The rest of the last 2:00 they did all you could expect. But then the #317 3-point shooting team hit three in a row.

I guess they are not billing this as Pomeroy's #317 offense (A&T) versus the #303 defense (Liberty)? Looks so far like bad offense beats bad defense.

I agree. Zero would really suck (because it would also be 3 points for CR). One at least keeps CR at bay, and we just have to hope to be healthier and better in the summer.
