Why March Is Great

[BigErnMcCracken]

I think I’ve watched just about every UCLA game this season. At no point would I have predicted they had this in them. Granted, Alabama may very well win this game, but it’s fun to see a team that was pretty unremarkable all year cooking like this when it matters.

I find myself rooting for Mick. I’ve always loved the way his teams play. He gets a bad rap around here.

The job he did with Cinci was underrated and he’s reinvigorated life into the UCLA program.

Alabama is warming up.

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

And that’s more like it.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

I don't get the foul calls on rebounds. The UCLA player had inside position and he picks up a foul call on a rebound. How is that possible?

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Alabama runs a really good transition offense.

Alabama runs a really good transition offense.

I hope Hurley is watching this. These guys get out and run and are looking to score immediately. They don't sprint up the court and then back the ball out and wait 20 seconds before doing anything. They have a lot of athleticism and they use it perfectly. We need to model our offense like this

Mick needed a timeout before those last 2 possessions, they looked totally gassed and now Juzang fouls out on a tired looking move and a tired frustration foul.

Wow, does uniform count? It hit the uniform.

 

[superjohn]

Wow, does uniform count? It hit the uniform.

Of course.

 

[jdb50]

maybe hand of Bama as well

 

[rollskies]

This game is wild. Such a close game.

 

[aburks41]

that was a foul. Bama guy got mauled

 

[ASweet3781]

These refs might as well be wearing UCLA jerseys.

 

[rollskies]

Bama has missed 10 free throws. That hurts

 

[metsfan2323]

Oh no, another gut wrenching Mick Cronin loss? or does he finally get a win?

 

[rollskies]

2 really bad calls for Alabama down the stretch. Absolutely brutal for them

 

[ASweet3781]

lol announcers hyping Bama's defense and they let a rather easy hoop.

 

[LIuconn]

Wow! Down to the wire we go

 

[metsfan2323]

should have been a "and one"

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Reilly was fouled on that laydunk he just did.

 

[JakeTheDog]

Refs just randomly call/no call fouls. No consistency.

 

[Huskygrad88]

These refs might as well be wearing UCLA jerseys.

Bama free throws=21, UCLA=10. Not sure about that

 

[rollskies]

NOOO HERB JONES. NOOOOO

 

[ASweet3781]

What the HELL is this Jones guy doing?

Hero ball for a guy who looks TERRIBLE at the line.

Why is that guy doing ANYTHING at this point in the game.
