Weird that Duke plays USC in Greenville......weird that they let USC play in Greenville in the 2nd round as a 7 seed.

Just let Farrell and Vasturia play all 20 minutes and cut Gibbs to zero, he just isn't ready yet. If he isn't fouled it's a turnover

can't be far off

Well Farrell was on the bench with 1:15 left until halftime. Last possession was almost certainly a bucket if he's in instead of Gibbs. Gibbs can't dribble and is shaking.

The semifinals turned into duds unfortunately. One was close at half, but both ended as blowouts.

Agreed that the final saved the tourney as a whole from being the worst ever though.

And instead of a halftime show just run Verne getting hit in the face with a basketball.

If you showed a clip of West Virginia's normal press and a team trying to intentionally foul at the end of the game I don't think there'd be any significant difference

They're picking up Farrel 90 feet from the basket and running 2 guys at him as soon as he gets it. He has to work extremely hard. Unfortunately one of Gibbs or Pfluger had to give him some rest in the 1st half. Hopefully he can play all 20 minutes this half. Gibbs and Pfluger both look like 8th graders out there

The foul call when an offensive player jumps into a guy who is straight up is the most irritating call in sports

KU Davidson was Epic. Don't remember but WVU/Duke was probably good too.

There were upsets. 4 Uconn out in the first. MW bracket had a ton of upsets--Nova was a 12 and made E8. Davidson was a 10. Siena, a 13 made the S16.

The East had 1 seed upset in all of it's games (#3 Lville beating #2 UTK). South had 1 upset, #5 MSU beating #4 Pitt. MW/West had a few more upsets but still a ton of chalk. WKU also made the E8 that year.

I hate that foul call. Yes he's standing in the circle but he's straight up and the offensive player creates all the contact. Should use the no call way more in that spot.

Just feels like one of those games where WV is letting ND hang around too long when they've had opportunities to put them away.

West Virginia really outperforming at the FT line. They shoot 68% on the season but they're 15/17 today.
