What did we learn last night in NCAA boys??

Shortstop · 03-13-09, 06:00 AM

I wouldn't be surprised to see West Virginia in the Final Four. I am also very impressed with Washington. That is my National Championship game prediction - West Virginia and Washington.

2 solid teams S.S..

hopefully Pitt practices against the 1-3-1 zone over the next week...and they won't be able to get exploited that way again..

themajormt · 03-13-09, 06:58 AM

I watched the WHOLE Cuse game and they NEVER gave up, and like you commented above, are peaking at the right time. They handled Thabeet as kuch as anyone could and ran great offensive sets and exploited UConn once Thabeet fouled out. I wouldnt necessarily fade Cuse tonight,they play at night again and think they are hungry. I will wait and watch the line... I think the bet of the day is Louisville, then Texas, UB, and BG.

GL!

Flynn looked pretty fresh and energetic the whole way through.... these are kids... during the summer they play 6-8 hrs of games at times....

I wouldn't get too caught up in fading them....
now if they were pros and had some 36 year olds maybe...

I love Cuse's 'tude and swagger though.... I'd ride that while it was hot..

themajormt · 03-13-09, 07:15 AM

That buzzer beater being overturned won me $1,800 so I am definitely riding them tonight... Based on WVU's style of play along with the marathon lastnight the under could be the play but I am sure vegas will adjust the line based on it... Have you seen one yet?

no lines for me yet.... prob waiting to hear reports on how each player feels when they wake up... I'm sure Vegas will get some inside info on whether this game took a toll beyond tiredness (minor irritating injuries ect.) on which players...

tired doesn't always = under....

tired legs and lethargic movement means GIVING UP alot of points

so it prob evens out

themajormt · 03-13-09, 07:23 AM

Thats a good point... I think Cuse is going to have a ton of value because everyone will jump on WV due to lastnight. What do you think?

fiveteamer · 03-13-09, 07:45 AM

I learned that Clemson can eat a big fat didick

pavyracer · 03-13-09, 07:46 AM

I have learned not to bet with real money. Only fake money on spreadsheet works.

AMBlai01 · 03-13-09, 07:52 AM

This 'Cuse team has more heart than any team I have probably ever seen and I am not just saying that because I am a Cuse fan. They never gave up and didn't even have a lead in OT until the 6th one. Regardless of what they do the rest of the Big East Tourney that game last night will help them down the road in the NCAA tourney. That never give up attitude is what teams that go deep in the tourney need...

jjgold · 03-13-09, 08:11 AM

I think about 20 teams have a shot at ncaa tourney title this year, parity has killed game.

Fixed it...

There was no way in hell the refs were going to let West Virginia beat Syracuse.

diogee · 03-14-09, 03:10 AM

I learned that I need to stop betting on ncaa once conference tourneys roll around...I got crushed around this time last year too. I don't follow or know the game well enough to beat this craziness....of course all the bullshit losses never help either. NBA is where it is this time of the year.

Shortstop · 03-14-09, 03:12 AM

Xavier doesn't deserve to be in The NCAA Tourney.

Aces · 03-14-09, 08:15 AM

I learned that Alabama's players were ready for spring break.

gummo · 03-14-09, 08:38 AM

I think we learned that 20 year old kids don't get tired. Play for 4 hours one night then 2.5 the next. I wouldn't go against them tonight.

TPowell · 03-14-09, 01:47 PM

I learned that Louisiville will run Syracuse dead and if the 2nd half spread is Louisville minus single digits, I'm POUNDING it

Chi_archie · 03-14-09, 04:28 PM

learning alot this day/week/weekend almost all of the top 25 have lost in the past week..

LT Profits · 03-14-09, 06:08 PM

I am actually liking MEMPHIS more and more. I think they will step up against tougher competition the way their defense is playng.

freeVICK · 03-14-09, 06:26 PM

dogs dogs dogs

yisman · 03-14-09, 06:56 PM

been liking Memphis all along

drfunkmaster · 03-14-09, 07:02 PM

Underdogs are the best way to go... look at wake forest last night, choked... Lets go syracuse, do it again..

The_Kid · 03-14-09, 07:15 PM

USC had been underperforming this entire season up until this point but now, they're clicking at the right time and clinched an automatic bid to the tournament!

TPowell · 03-14-09, 10:55 PM

Louisville is the best team in the country right now

flyingillini · 03-14-09, 10:56 PM

Purdue will make it to the sweet sixteen at least.

ryanXL977 · 03-14-09, 10:57 PM

ride the hot teams till they lose

UL
USC
TENN
FLORIDA STATE

flyingillini · 03-14-09, 10:58 PM

I am excited for the tournament and I hope there are a lot of upsets!

yisman · 03-14-09, 11:58 PM

fade OU and Wake Forest

seaborneq · 03-15-09, 11:14 AM

Arizon St is the least talented of the BCS conference teams in the tournament. Most of their players were out of shape, not very athletic bodies. Sendek must be the college zen master, because I don't see those guys won 20+ games this year.
