NCAA tournament discussion thread

Yeah, two Shockers looked NBA ready after the Kentucky game, Early and Baker.

What's scary is, Baker will have two more years to get even better

The idea that Kentucky is an 8 seed is laughable bordering on criminal.

No joke.

I know it probably wouldn't matter, but a formal complaint might be called for.

The idea that Kentucky is an 8 seed is laughable bordering on criminal.

I was saying that for a week now I had them as a 6 seed and only because of their failings during the year. At worst they should have been a 7 seed based on resume but the committee felt those loses we had pushed us to an 8 seed despite Kentucky having 14 top 100 wins and a SOS of 3. I was disappointed for both you and us because it meant 1 of us wouldn't make the sweet 16. Now the fact that Louisville is a 4 seed is redonkoulous as well.

Creighton is screwed. This was their best chance to actually do something and I don't think they can get another National player of the year to come to their town. I have no idea their recruiting class next year but I would think they may be hard pressed just to make the tourney next year.

The committee probably couldn't figure them out. They played like an 8 or 9 seed during the year, but during the SEC tournament and the NCAA tournament, they played like a 1 or 2-seed.

CU is going to be hard pressed to finish ahead of Butler in their league next year. CU may be on their way to becoming the bottom feeder in a conference that may be heading toward "mid-major" status. Had they stayed in the Valley, they might have been able to avoid Thursday night in St. Louis next year.

With Nebraska trending up, and CU trending down, CU may have trouble selling those $6 tickets they sell to fill the last 6K or so seats. BTW, the handling charge on tickets at CLink is $6. The cheap seats sell for $6 - that includes the handling charge.

CBS commentator just now on the CU vs BU game:

"I don't want to take anything away from Creighton as they have had a great season, BUT this game is like watching the varsity play the junior varsity."

Instant classic!

I guess they really belonged on our schedule this year.

Cool beans! You're the third beaker I've told to eat **** tonight. Am I doing this right?

Classy lessons from a beaker. Too funny

What would Ali say to RC

[Shock Top]

Why are you on here making the rest of the KU fans look bad?

They are just sad that for two years in a row, "little brother" has outshine them.

The power is shifting in this state. It's just the beginning.

[IlliniShocker]

It's amazing how much easier this thread reads with one simple click of an ignore button.

But I must say, what a beacon of classiness we have here. Someone pulling their fingers out of their ass long enough to go visit another school's message board and respond to posters one-by-one telling them they're classless. Now GTFO and go back to probing yourself.

[ShockerFever]

You do realize we are all on here saying that both Louisville and Kentucky deserved BETTER seeds...not worse....right? How is that "trashing" those programs? Lol

Now KU on the other hand should have had a worse seed

Dumbass KU fan too busy picking his nose and flinging it around in his mouth than understanding basic reading comprehension. Typical.

Ignore the troll. Interesting that Perry Ellis was textng CLE durng the post game press conference about comng back to Wichita and having work to do.

The PLAYERS respect each other. Sad that fans can't do tbe same...

[RoyalShock]

After banning the KU troll I went through and deleted all his posts and all posts that quoted him, in case you were wondering where some of your posts went.

[kcshocker11]

I guess they really belonged on our schedule this year.

CU didnt want to mess with a tradition of never getting out of the 2nd round or 3rd whatever you want to call it.
