Does games on CBSSN. Mostly Conference USA and Patroit League.

I like Avery. Talks a little much at times but has good observations.

MEAN
GREEN

[MarquetteMike1977]

72-64 calling it mean green victory

[MuggsyB]

That dad in the stands is awesome!

[MU82]

Ohio State, a 2-seed, done.

Purdue, a 4-seed, done.

Michigan State, coached by a Hall of Famer, done.

The greatest conference ever is 2-3 so far, with Rutgers playing right now. I've got Rutgers going to the Sweet 16, FWIW (and it ain't worth much!).

Rutgers??  Too much Whiskey on St. Patrick's Day?

There will be upsets. Gotta pick the right ones. Sometimes I do, often I don't ... like most other bracket-pickers.

Meanwhile ...

Nova 0-6 from 3-point range. But Moore is moving well early on, and JRE is by far the best player on the court.

[MuggsyB]

Good start for Nova but they can't hit a 3.  And Winthrop's lefty center is a little bit like Davante.

Awesome?

I don't understand teams (coaches) that can't decipher Boeheim's zone.  Sure, it's really effective when he also has his best offense.  But in mediocre years?  It's not like you don't have 40+ years of tape to look at.

edit: for the kiddos, tape = video.  I'm well aware nobody uses tape anymore.  Or removable magnetic spinning disks (do you know what those are?)

[MuggsyB]

Wow.  SDSU didn't score the final 9:40 of the half vs Syracuse.

Final unbelievable tally on first half unders.

13-2-1 today

16-3-1 if you include yesterday

[JWags85]

Every other year Cuse gets into the tourney when they shouldn't...and then somehow pulls an upset like this. Hate them so much

[MarquetteMike1977]

Boeheim does a great job talking about and saying how you can not win the tourney if you are not in it and getting his team to focus and tighten up there D in the tourney somehow.

Well said.  Can't stand them.

[MarquetteMike1977]

How was that a travel on Clemson

I used to not stand them until my Daughter Graduated from there. Do not hold it against me.

Rutgers??  Too much Whiskey on St. Patrick's Day?

Yes, Rutgers.

And I'm just a boring beer guy.

I didn't get that call at all.  But it wasn't an important possession or anything.   Smh.

[MarquetteMike1977]

Rutgers 30 Years between Tourneys

[MarquetteMike1977]

Oral Roberts like 47 years between wins

They could have won that game easily. Way too many unforced errors in the last 10 minutes. If they play Rutgers 10 times, I bet Clemson wins at least 7 of them.
