Who thought Wichy isn't for real?

[homie1975]

beating a 16 seed means they are for real?

last year they were a 9 seed who snuck up on teams.

dont get me wrong i love coach marshall and i love the team,

but

this year as a #1 it's a different story,

target on their back,

i see a sweet 16 loss v Lville

i had them going too far in my bracket but had them out in the Sweet 16 for sure

[Albert Pujols]

yikes, the one challenge all year and they lose.

Guess they are not for real.

Guess you're just a dumbass.

[Albert Pujols]

Drinker next time you talk shit at least back it up.

Told you what was going to happen.

Good effort Wichita.

KY/Ville was booked as soon as the brackets came out.

What's your lifetime figure at SBR sportsbook?

[Albert Pujols]

played hard not smart. Any player knows to go to the far side of the rim when pursued.

One of those two layups goes in and it is a different story.

Get real. Ron Baker handles the ball like it's a video game and his shot is textbook perfect and also a lockdown defender. NBA prospect. We'll see if he can get more aggressive as a scorer in his last two years and if he does, he'll be in the NBA.

Anyone that thinks Wichita was not for real.......just keep on enjoying your 47% wins.

I usually don't argue with idiots. But I've loved Wichita for years, and really fell in love with this team. I went to the game today, and it was a heartbreaker. I knew all the morons would say they were frauds for losing to preseason #1, loaded with NBA players and playing its best, even though Wichita was -350 or higher in live betting most of the game. Really, though, they keep score on sports opinions, and none of these idiots will ever make money betting on sports. I rest my case.

Was a great game. Reminded me of UK-Duke 1992. So many big shots and big plays. Answers back and forth.

You obviously love wichita st and I agree it was a great game. But it probably won't be the best game this year and you comparing it to the undisputed greatest game every played in college ball ever does show your bias a little. #1 nationally and defending champ duke vs #6 ranked kentucky

You talk about facing " a team loaded with NBA players" duke played eight guys in the UK game. Seven were drafted in the first two rounds of NBA draft, four in the top 12 picks of round one. The one guy on the team not drafted played one minute in this game , and 11 minutes the entire tournament . He still got a tryout with multiple NBA teams and was only not drafted because the NBA only had two rounds in the draft back then. Duke shot 65% from field every duke player shot 50% or better and the teams combined for 55% from three point range, 20-36 overall.

The ky team was loaded as well, of the 36 jerseys ever retired in the 110+ years of ky hoops, possibly the greatest program ever, five of those men were on the court that day.

After winning this game duke went on to win their second consecutive national title. The year before they defeated 34-0 unlv and Kansas in the final four to win the title. No game compares to this one. It's like comparing a HS player to Jordan.

Charles Barkley said today's game was the greatest tournament game ever. I don't know how saying a game was great makes me biased. I don't remember much about UK-Duke, other than it was just back and forth all game. Answer after answer on each end. Much like today.

I'll be on UK on Friday plus the points. Should be a good game. Might even go to the game if the seats are affordable.

You think Wichita St will win today? Pretty tough matchup!
