At first I thought their style looked cool, with the hard press and the fluid shots, but then their shot selection got worse and worse. They don't even try to find a good shot (or even pass the dang ball), they just put it up without squaring up. And they barely play any defense, they just let teams knikfe through them. I'd call it more 'reckless' than 'high-octane'. |
Right now, yes. Give it time. They were on fire early.
EDIT: Well, they had it, but then Radford started getting bullshit calls again.
EDIT2: I am filled with pure, unadulterated rage at the evens that have taken place in this game.
Enjoy your 35 point first round loss, Radford.
Maybe VMI will get an invite into the CBI.

Go *death-inducing action*, you *clever name involving four swearwords*
Seriously.
Also, what the fuck was Creighton smoking last night!?
Can I get ANYTHING to do my way today???
EDIT: But now, we start a new era of conference tournament brackets, beginning with the Big 12: http://www.big12sports.com/fls/10410/championships/pdfs/2009_mbasketball_bracket.pdf?SPSID=106110&SPID=13134&DB_OEM_ID=10410

By the way, go Redbirds! I honestly thought they would be creamed, but I just got to checking the result for the game (I had no idea how it turned out), and it looks like we got blue jay pie instead of cardinal pie

Aww fuck. My bracket is dead. This is the hardest year I've ever seen to pick.
On second thought, Xavier lost, so I'm happy. |

Way to remove yourselves from the at large pool, Creighton. I picked Illinois State to beat them, but I wasn't expecting a 24 point massacre. It seems like so many of the better mid majors are getting picked off early. Vermont gets upset by Albany, and even North Dakota State nearly got beat by Centenary in the Summit first round.
EDIT: Wow, Austin Peay and Morehead State are going into double overtime for the OVC title.

MORE! HEAD! MORE! HEAD!
Awesome game.
WVU/Louisville going down to the final minutes now. Awesome game--54-52 WV at the moment--and my ESPN Streak for the Cash relies on WV winning, so don't mess this up, fuckers.

Guess what? They messed up. What the hell was Ruoff doing out there? He was acting like someone on a middle school team who sucks...

FFS. He was atrocious. Picked a bad night to screw it up, too; if he doesn't completely shit the bed they probably win that.
I swear to God, Louisville is the luckiest fucking team...I knew if after that Villanova game and I know it now. I really wouldn't be surprised to see them bow out early in the tourney, especially since they're awful with their free throws.
Bah. Good games all around, though.

The bolded are the brackets that have been released (in bold)
Atlantic 10 (9:00)
Big 12 (5:00)
Big East (10:00)
Big West (11:00)
C-USA (9:00)
Mountain West (11:00)
Pac 10 (9:00)
Southland (9:05)
SWAC (9:30)
WAC (1:05 AM!? Jesus christ, I don't care that the game is at Hawaii; play it earlier!)
I'll edit the rest as they come out.
EDIT: My thoughts on some of these conferences, as seen on my blog:
| Quote: | | Hey! Remember the Atlantic Sun and how you looked at it and thought of all the possible things that could possibly fuck up your bracket, including a middling, on-fire conference team having home court? Meet the Atlantic Sun's steroid-using brother, the Mountain West. I didn't even MAKE half of these picks; I used a coin. And since I don't have a quarter, customary make-shit-up-as-you-go-along rules says to find a nickel and do the opposite of what it tells you. So...yeah. This is the result. Let's hope it works. |
| Quote: | | Hey! Remember how much fun I had picking the Southland and MEAC? Well, let's do it again, except this time, let's get a bunch of shittyass teams who can't do a fucking thing outside their conference, and have them play 3 meaningless games only to get killed in the Playin game! This is far and beyond the WORST conference in the country, and picking it every year makes me want to smash things. |
| Quote: | | What, you didn't expect me to pick the Mousekateers, did you? They suck. Whoever wins the Dayton/URI semi will win the autobid. There is also some serious fuckery potential in the first 2 rounds. Watch out for La Salle as well as the other 2 upset teams. |
| Quote: | | There are three threats to Memphis in this tourney. Two of them (Tulsa and Houston) may very well get picked off before they can play Memphis, so the third threat will have to come through, and that's if the refs don't get the memo to accept bribes from John Calipari. I fucking hate Memphis. I hope the retard kids (I'm looking at YOU, Dozier and Taggart) die in a flaming hellstorm inferno of fire set off by a Dresden-style firebombing. That said, they will probably win this tournament anyway. |
| Quote: | | Trying to pick games in this tournament is like trying to decide which piece of shit you want to keep in your pocket for the rest of your life. This is a perennial loser conference, and this year is no different. 2nd worst conference, right behind the SWAC (Shorthand for Southwestern Athletic Conference and Sweaty AssCrack). |

Thanks to my roommate being a douchebag and sleeping until 11, I couldn't do much of anything until just now.
Let's run this down:
Big South: 0/1. Fuck you, Radford.
OVC: 0/1. Fuck you...everyone.
Atlantic Sun: 0/1. See OVC.
Horizon: 1/2. There goes El Perfecto.
MVC: 0/2. Fuck you, Illinois State
Big Sky: 1/2. Fuck you, Montana State.
Summit: 1/2. South Dakota State!? Are you kidding me? Thank GOD I had ORU losing next round.
WCC: 2/2. Still El Perfecto.
MAAC: 4/4.
America East: 2/4. Fuck you, Albany.
CAA: 3/4. Thanks for doing what I had Drexel doing, Towson.
SoCon: 3/4. Thanks a lot, Shitadel.
Total: 17/29. Son of a bitch.
Today's slate has 21 games, with one autobid (MVC) to be handed out and a fuckton of semifinal games.

Let's tally up my scoring from yesterday.
Big South: 1/1. I'll be honest, I was rooting for VMI
OVC: 0/1. Enjoy the play-in game, Morehead
Atlantic Sun: 0/1. This whole thing almost went according to seed
Horizon: 1/2. I knew Cleveland State would beat Green Bay. But I still had Green Bay winning the whole thing, because I'm a dumbass.
MVC: 1/2, Go Illinois State!
Big Sky: 1/2, screw Montana State
Summit: 1/2, I had a feeling ORU might lose to South Dakota State, being the tourney is in Sioux Falls and all.
WCC: 2/2, easy.
MAAC: 3/4, fuck Fairfield.
America East: 1/4, what the fuck is going on here?
CAA: 3/4, Towson? Advancing to the semis? Didn't see that coming.
SoCon: 3/4, damn you Samford.
EDIT: 17/29, not 14/29. I fail at addition apparently.
