abiline is like a bunch of quick little tiny guys who are spicy as hell and then they have one giant chubby guy who thinks he is in an and1 streetball video, this is insane

Also, I bet .14 btc on Texas (+WV as well) to title at 50-1 back in October when btc was like $10k and now I am just sweating bullets

on ur bikes mormons, thanks for playing.

in case anyone didn't notice, the pac-12 is unstoppable. for the first time in forever but I like it. other than the VCU forfeit - that sucks for those kids.

now over to truTV for the first time in 2 years...

I don’t understand how abilene has 14 orebs and Texas has 4. Texas is like ten feet taller at every position

abilenes offense has been truly painful to watch. keep handing it off backwards for 25 seconds then some guy drives into two people a foot taller

hope they can get one here but seems 50/50 they even get a shot off

guessing longhorns alumni/fans won't consider this a good loss?

getting iced on the bench in the biggest game in one's life and making 2 FT down 1 with :01 is the stuff of dreams.

One of the most athletic teams in the country with at least 2 guys that will play in the nba and we lost to a team with dudes 5'6, a broken ankle, and a couple of fats.

.........................

VCU was bounced out of the Tourney - too much Covid positivity
now the legitimacy of the Tourney is in question - if another team is bounced out it's really bad

https://www.nytimes.com/2021/03/20/s...gtype=Homepage

wonder how the books will handle the bounce

Sure, if multiple additional teams must forfeit then it’s a big story. We can cross that bridge if we come to it though.

you can believe what you want - but I don't buy it
Oregon got to advance without having to play a game
they're getting more rest than their opponents
even right now its not totally legit IMO

I know they have to proceed as if everything is cool...................that's busines
but everything is not cool.............................................. .................................................. ...not at all

The tournament, just like the rest of this whole season, will have a giant asterisk next to it no matter what happens. Whatever.

LOL though at trying to apply a "legitimacy" standard though. Come on. Especially when talking about a 7 seed getting a walk in the first round. So to have a "legit" tournament you need to force a team to play that can't meet the pre-established COVID rules, or otherwise shitcan the whole tourney?
