NCAA Second Round (Sunday)

[Blueballer]

Although I would love to see DePaul win this game, I think the Cardinals would have a better shot of knocking off Baylor than DePaul. Baylor's inside game is too strong.

I WANT us to play Baylor!

A little over the top with that celebration for Hines Allen

Excellent game, 70-71 DePaul 2:00 remaining.

Is Mississppi St kidding me with this 2nd half performance?

I expected a team who made the SEC final playing on their home court to not fall apart like this.

Really?? Its the SEC??

That was absolutely the correct call on Jackson. She fouled.

 

[Kaizen]

The worst call I saw in that game was the jump ball when WV was down only three, the WV had the ball and an OSU guard graded her elbow two handed and basically swung her to the ground without ever touching the ball with the ref three feet away and not obstructed - called jump ball with OSU having the arrow.

Saw this play and completely agree with you.

That was absolutely the correct call on Jackson. She fouled.

Louisville's obsession with contact and physical play could cost them. Why not just play D?

 

[ASweet3781]

Congrats Doug Bruno! They will have a manageable Sweet 16 game vs likely Oregon State too.

DePaul wins 73-72

The second round games are always some of the best

WOW. DePaul looked horrible down the stretch, honestly, with so many empty possessions in the last five minutes. But they did just enough to hang on. Jessica January hit one of two free throws after fouling out Jackson, and with Jackson out of the game Louisville looked a bit lost on its last chance.

Congrats Bruno!!!!!!

I am completely stunned that Mississippi State is gonna win this game.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

WOW!!!!!

Michigan State got robbed!!!!!

They should have got the ball with 3.8 seconds left.....

Unbelievable.

 

[HuskyNan]

Is the Miss State coach going to cry?

Possibly!

Wish I could find the poster that said Louisville would win by 30!!!!.

Darn, there goes the competition.

Unbelievable.

Right when I saw that play in real time, I thought "Isn't her foot out of bounds?" The referee's vision was blocked and there was no recourse. Tough break for MSU.

Mich St was robbed by the non call when Miss St player was out of bounds. However, would Mich St had made a shot to win or tie the game?

Mich St lost this game by missing Free Throws down the stretch and then of course having to play at Miss St instead of on their home court as the higher seed.

DePaul was my dark horse and I know the game isn't over but DePaul is a tough match when they are hitting shots.

As they say in New York........"Forget about it" That poster has stepped back into the shadows, and has gone dark, as he tries to repair his credibility.

 

[Blueballer]

How did Powers not touch the ball on their last couple of possesions? she was also much more likely to get a foul call. bad job by Mich State

 

[Charliebball]

Is the Miss State coach going to cry?

I think he will when he looks at the team he has to play next

Very true. I'm surprised Michigan State didn't do whatever it had to do to free up its facility. Last year ASU's venue was previously booked for a gymnastics meet during the first 2 rounds, but as soon as it became apparent that ASU would likely land a top-4 seed, they quickly begged off gymnastics hosting duty so that they could host. Home court advantage is just a huge deal in basketball.

I think you mean "fuggedaboudit"!

 

[Carnac]

I think you mean "fuggedaboudit"!

THAT"S exactly what I meant!! I didn't know how to spell it. I'm out here in Southern California. We use a slightly different dialect out here.

Thanks.
