Not the best place for this. But saw this story related to Ohio State losing. Fans threatening players to the point that police had to be called. Some of our fans may be crazy, but at least they haven't gone that far yet.

Agreed. Georgetown is terrible. They have been all year. Colorado is legitimately good. Easy pick.

Nova was pretty easy as well. Oregon St surprised me. Creighton has me a bit worried. UCSB is good.

2020-2021 has been the year where every player says “give me that sh*t” after blocking a shot. It is actually becoming quite obnoxious.

Agree with GTown comments they were 3-8 got COVID then went 10-4. But overall not very good for an NCAA Team.

Eastern Wash beating Kansas would salvage the morning session today.

Every time I watch Florida State, they look like world beaters.

tOSU fans are the reason DJ left.

EWU winning would be awesome

Georgetown played one good week of basketball. Totally predictable.

My guess is they’re a-hole degenerate gamblers and not OSU fans.

They’re OSU fans that never stepped foot in a classroom in Columbus.

Damn. EWU must clean the defensive glass!!

BM1090 · « **Reply #312 on:** March 20, 2021, 01:36:48 PM »

Ban the charge. College refs have no idea how to call it. It ruins games.

But, but...how would the Brad Davison’s of the world get an athletic scholarship otherwise?

Agree. Lots of faux flops. Only Greg Elliott gets a flop technical.

If the charge was outlawed, Wojo never would have been considered a great defender.

The spirit of the rule is ruined. It’s become a substitute for defense. Sliding under players, building your whole strategy against packing the lane and flopping, it’s terrible.

He’s probably the most overrated college defender of all time. The DPOY he won was a complete Duke PR driven joke.

I actually changed my pick to Colorado after your advice. Ty.

Homer And Tony were talking about that game yesterday on the radio for awhile.

Two biggest upsets? ORU and NTSU. Both head coaches were assistants to Bryce Drew at Baylor. People assume he cheats because he wins at a non blue blood. Maybe he’s just that good at coaching basketball.

Scott Drew is at Baylor. Bryce is at Grand Canyon.

Georgetown is just not very good, and we all knew that. A hot month against mostly meh competition didn't suddenly make Patrick Ewing a great coach or his players world-beaters.

This was the easiest 12/5 game to pick. I didn't hesitate for one second in writing down Colorado. At least the other three made me think for a minute (and I'm 1-1 so far, obviously didn't think Tennessee would get smoked).

Agree. I was surprised to hear that a good number of people picked GTown.

How did that shot not count for EWU?? WTH??

UNCG played far better than UNC.
