College Basketball 2010-2011

You no like the Kemba?

 

[DRay9911]

kemba is cool. he's a tough dude.

i hate calhoun and calipari...a couple of smug fucks

 

[speedracer]

Anybody else think VCU is getting kind of boned by the refs?

 

[DRay9911]

i think the foul total for the first half was 11 (vcu) - 5 (butler)

 

[LemonMelon]

That was the longest 30 seconds I've ever experienced. VCU would not let the clock strike midnight for anything.

I've been idly supporting Butler since they nearly took out those Duke assholes, and my time at Valparaiso University has given me the opportunity to get more familiar with them. Valpo/Butler games are a huge deal on campus. Not so much because we give a shit about VU sports but because it gives us the opportunity to watch a great team for once.

 

[DRay9911]

congrats butler

::crossing my fingers for a rogue astroid::

In this battle of dislike, I dislike Calipari much more than Calhoun, who is a cranky jackass in his own right. But he's not a fucking fiend like Calipari.

Butler has a legit shot to pull this off. From a purely basketball point of view the Butler/vacuum game was infinitely better than the second game, which was pretty much a battle over which team could hit the backboard with a shot less than the other team.

Brutal brutal basketball.

 

[PhilsFan]

I've never been compared to anyone famous in my 20 years on this Earth until last night. Someone told me I look just like Brad Stevens sans the glasses.

I'm convinced Butler will win because of this.

 

[Hewson]

It goes without saying, but Go Butler. Hopefully this year the buzzer beater falls.

Yea pretty much the whole world is cheering for Butler tonight...if it wasn't my school playing them I would be too. But it is...go UConn.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

i'd like to meet the person who said uconn would be in the ncaa title game before the big east tournament.

and then there's butler.

madness, i tell ya. madness.

Not the whole world.

Go UConn.

I'm hearing James Earl Jones, as Mufasa, in his thundering baritone:

"KEMBA! YOU HAVE DELIBERATELY DISOBEYED ME!"

Avenge my death, Kemba. Er, I mean, Simba.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

LeAnn Rimes. I would do this.

 

[speedracer]

Jesus. How many 6'9"+ guys does UConn have?

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

This game blows

 

[speedracer]

Butler just can't get an open shot because everybody on UConn is 8 feet tall.

UConn, meanwhile, can't throw the ball into an ocean.

 

[ntalwar]

22-19 - yawn.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

I guess Butler can take solace that even if they lose tonight they'll get the title in 3 years after uconn is forced to rescind

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

The dump off to the opposite block is there for Butler on penetration but nobody is opening up to the ball.

 

[LemonMelon]

Is Butler trying to see if they can win a game without sinking one FG? So far, the experiment is...not a rousing success. They're the Bills of NCAA basketball.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

How about Brad Stevens draws up one fucking play that gets a cutter going to the basket

 

[DRay9911]

congrats ct. your 3rd national title comes with an astrisk

 

[Danny Boy]

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

I wonder what the "I don't like the NBA the college game is much better" crowd has to day after that bore fest.

 

[Danny Boy]

I'll wake them up and ask them.

 

[LuckyNumber7]

Indeed. Didn't top 100 points combined

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

I'm not sure what I'm more disgusted by... that a team shot 18% in a national title game, or that a big east team couldn't blow out a mid major that shot 18%
