2024 NCAA Tournament Thread

[Uncle Rico]

Izzo's game plan was brilliant.  Another March masterclass

[tower912]

It probably involved Hoggard making shots.

This year's Sparty team has puzzled and frustrated me from game 1.   Never gelled, never got consistent shooting, freshmen never really emerged.

Should have hit the portal.

[MuggsyB]

Thanks for playing, Sparty.   The door is over there.

Good riddance. 

[MuggsyB]

I'll be rooting for Duq but assuming Illinois wins, Iowa St/Illinois will be really interesting.

Let us get the door for you.  Oh no, we won't slam on you as you walk out, trust us.

I'm at the Omaha games and Illinois is big - I think their size will wear down Duquesne.  And say what you want about Shannon, he's really good.

I agree with you.

[MuggsyB]

Burns is massive and highly skilled.  Oakland hanging tough though. 

[Herman Cain]

UNC continues to be my choice to win The Tournament . Bacot and RJ are talented and experienced and their role players are solid

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

Are the teams that play Thur/Sat or Fri/Sun guaranteed to be on the same schedule for next weekend?

Good at what

No. But the South is Friday / Sunday.

Man. Oakland and NC State are not very good.

[MuggsyB]

Has the Oakland coach ever looked for a bigger job?

[ATL MU Warrior]

When we get past Colorado we should absolutely smoke either of these teams

[The Sultan]

Has the Oakland coach ever looked for a bigger job?

Think he was offered bigger gigs but not big enough to get him to pull the trigger.

[Mu8891]

I agree ^

Win tomorrow, and MU should crush
Oak or NC ST .  I mean ... Oak barely beat UWM to win Horizon

[forgetful]

Burns is massive and highly skilled.  Oakland hanging tough though.

Burns can barely make it up and down the court at times.

[MuggsyB]

The young man is exhausted.  I'd like to have him on my security crew.

I prefer my security crew to be all 5'6" or smaller. Makes me look bigger so no one wants to mess with me.

Lol.

[The Sultan]

NC State's zone offense is just terrible.

[MUEng92]

Yes it hit NC State players finger but Oakland player still had his hand on it after tip

[MuggsyB]

NC State's zone offense is just terrible.

It's not good. 

[wadesworld]

Neither team is very good. Need to take advantage of this draw, and tomorrow is the big one.
