    SS, I can hardly come to terms, still, with the fact we got a 10 seed. Her husband voiced it all week. I think all the emotion came out during the game.
    Frustration, lack of respect and "screwed" for all but 1 NCAA Selection Sunday the last 6 years can do that to the best of us. The only time we had a somewhat "favorable" bracket was when we actually went to the Final Four. We crashed the party then and the NCAA selection committee realized the new player on the block and quickly fixed that for future "pairings". It's no accident. Designed that way...and it's undeniably obvious. Been a while since we got a match-up with La Salle.

    • Y'all are overplaying this. No shockernetter has accused Lynn of being a bad person or condemned her in any way. If we're going to talk about this though, we might as well get the facts straight though so context can be provided. We all support Lynn and Gregg 100%.

        First of all it's the preaching. Second of all, as much as I hate the chickens with unrestrained passion, and always will, if they would have won 30 games and gotten a 10 seed, just because the committee had to, I would sure as hell take that into consideration before, during, and after any and all NCAA proceedings concerning them. And I aint budging.

          Bro get off your ass about the seeding. It's not about the damn seeding. It's about respecting the officials as the wife of the coach and not making a scene for desperate Kentucky reporters to tweet about and make national news. We get it, we got screwed. Just don't use that as a crutch to blame every misfortune that happens to this team on.

            Quit with the preachin'. You don't think that was bothering her huh? It was just the cognac? This is the game thread. There's a different thread about Lynn if you wanna go over there and browbeat your Shocker brethren. Amen.

              Well your argument was just about the same over there as it was over here so I thought I might as well address both

                  Alcohol does tend to cloud your judgement, I'd check the warning label if you weren't aware.

                  • Such a great game, amazing play by Landry who was the best player on the court, a lot to look forward to next year, and you're telling me I have to read about this ****?

                    • I'm still trying to figure out why anyone on here would follow an 18(??) year old girl on Snapchat...

                        +1, I would have to add Shaq played at an elite level. He and Landry were so much fun to watch and could dominate at any moment of the game.
                        I just want to stand on land...

                        @rjl:
                        If I had a gun with two bullets and was in a room with Hitler, Bin Laden, and a Creighton fan, I think I'd shoot the Creighton fan twice.

                          Yep. Congrats to every low-sack "media" agency for running with this thing like a murder was committed and stealing the spotlight from the game, players, and tournament.

                          ... No really, deuces.

                            Enough with the sermonizing. Come down off of your pulpit.

                              You can guess what their age and/or maturity level is. Probably some geek that gets off lecturing others. In other words, a chicken fan. Bet.

                                I wish we'd of had a timeout... that and less time on the court for our backup point.
