NCAA Tournament Scores and Discussion Thread

And St. Joe's can't even get a shot off. Terrible.

[Kel Varnsen]

The number of coaches who don't foul early and often when down and the other team is in the "one & one" blows my mind. I don't get wasting the time and I will never understand the logic...

Bingo. You HAVE to extend the game. Otherwise you just hope you get lucky. Other team is already on their back foot, so you might as well attack the basket and hope they screw up by missing foul shots.

[SHOXAAC]

He never recovered.

And now when any casual observer or fan outside of the Valley sees a UNI shirt or a UNI graphic, they'll think "hey, that's that team that choked up a 12 point lead with 40 seconds left in the NCAA Tournament".

That's what they'll now be known for.

Yes. Before that last minute was known as the team that hit that shot to take down KU, the team that hit that half court buzzer beater to take down Texas. The team that had OKC arena Magic. Now what?

I went on the UNI message board. I have to say, they are stunned but they are taking that meltdown better than most of us would have.

Man... I feel for those kids... I can even imagine how I would feel if this happened to WSU.

After the missed 3, before the put back for the first A&M basket (with about 35 seconds left), UNI had a 99.9% chance of winning. So brutal can sports be at times.

Good question, fan -- That is quite a turnabout indeed: "How a team's legacy and image can change dramatically in less than a minute of play," Exhibit A.

[Kel Varnsen]

Wow.

[ACW]

AWFUL call on the and-1, but how do you turn it over so many times? ND and TAMU: Better lucky than good.

A&M comeback was unreal, just watched - but what a phantom call on the layup to cut from 5 to 2

A&M with the least deserving sweet 16 birth ever. Garbage.[/QUOTE
That would be "berth."

Not on my spelling and grammar game of late.

This is true...but you CAN'T commit that many turnovers.
