I couldn't have been more wrong about the Zags. They went out and kicked butt today. Good for them. I've been a fan of that program for about 10 years now, so it's cool that they proved my theory to be wrong.
I also didn't think VCU had enough to beat Wichita, but they did in a fun game to watch! I have now been at VCU's last three tourney wins.
Ditto for the CO/UNLV game. Knew it would be close, but had the wrong side.
At least i saved myself total embarrassment by being right about the Indiana/NMSU and New Mexico/Long Beach contests. I was $ on those.

Will you be in the house on Saturday?

When I went to the bank this morning (no, not to stick it up), the teller told me that their branch is having a bracketing contest for the tournament. She showed me her bracket picks and she picked Missou to win it all. She said one of the other tellers, who is her best friend, picked Kentucky.

I'm not sure, but I think the winner gets a roll of pennies.

If it is full of wheaties, then it is a good deal.

Norfolk State pulls off the BIG upset!

Nice upset but I'm hosed. Missouri didn't look like they came to play from what little I saw of the game.

Do you agree with where the throw-in was administered? Shouldn't it have went to the endline rather than the sideline?

BktBallRef Fri Mar 16, 2012 06:00pm

EDIT: Ball was in the lane when TO was granted.

Anyway, next year, no bracket for me. I think I'll enjoy the tournament better without it.

I just posted that in the video request thread.

I stopped by the local AAU complex after work and watched the end of the game. There were multilple Norfolk AAU teams in the complex. The lobby was full folks watching the game. There were parents out in lobby watching NSU/Mizzou instead of their own children's games. Officials and coaches checking in on the game at halftime of their own games. And one of comlex administrators is even a MEAC observer. So the place went nuts went Mizzou missed that last 3.


There was some conflicted feelings though because Ricardo Ratliffe (#10) of Mizzou came through this same AAU program.

:DIt WAS the big upset.

grunewar Fri Mar 16, 2012 08:46pm
