Elite 8 Day 1 thread

Hey Hoochimama.......the zags are soft dude

At least we don’t have to look at his hideous still pics of him screaming again

 

[FearTheBeard_rivals208808]

Good game!

 

[dbav]

Moretti with too much. Tech may cough this up.

 

[crazyduke3]

Tech getting reckless.

 

[Louisville Crazie]

Good hands Perkins!

 

[FearTheBeard_rivals208808]

Why in the hell would you do that?

 

[Fightfan1]

Good.. 2nd day in a row that loud mouths have ruined their teams chances. First pigtails for vtech, now purkens.

 

[dbav]

I would feel pretty satisfied if Perkins costs them this game.

“Great call by John Higgins”

Somewhere KY fans are having a temper tantrum.

 

[Louisville Crazie]

Gonzaga looking real soft and overrated right now.

When are they not having a temper tantrum?

 

[DukeRulesBasketball]

Hachimura and the Zags were soft and overrated!

 

[dbav]

Why is Mooney inbounding? Isn't he a good FT shooter?

rules question - when the TT guy blocked the 3 and then saved the ball, he had stepped out of bounds beorehe jumped to save the ball....doesnt he have to re-establish before touching hte ball? Or is it ok to be out of bounds, jump and save a ball?

No, it was a botched call.

 

[dbav]

I think we have a much stronger interior presence than the Zags. If we win tomorrow, that should help us.

 

[pisgah101]

TTU! TTU! TTU! Bye zags. We win tomorrow we are national champions boys.

That was blown call. "You are where you stepped from" and he stepped from out of bounds making him out of bounds.

 

[dbav]

Aloha Rui.

No it should have been Gonzaga ball.

 

[jrtplaya]

Couldn't have happened to a better team!

[Hurley22]

If there is something I don't like about this Texas Tech team, I haven't found it yet.

 

[dbav]

Let's take care of business tomorrow.

 

[Ioliva]

If we are lucky enough to play Texas tech I am very afraid. Dang. Wish we had lost back then honestly. Tough to beat a team that good twice

 

[meisperplexed]

Congrats to Texas Tech. Really good game too. A bit off topic, but you could turn Perkins upside down and use his hair as a mop. Someone should tell him how unattractive that hair style is.

 

[Shatterthesky22]

If there is something I don't like about this Texas Tech team, I haven't found it yet.

Same. Just a bunch of hard working classy kids. Beard is a great coach. If we don't do it all I'd be cool with them winning it.

 

[Smythe13]

Awesome!!! Once again the Zags don't get it done. If they played in major conference they wouldn't be so hyped.

 

[SwatX1]

I honestly don't feel we can beat Gonzaga, either. But we can beat TTU.

How is it that we can beat the team that win, but can’t beat the one that lost? And again, Gonzaga shot out of their minds and beat us by 2.

 

[SoCal_Dukie3]

Congrats TTU!!

 

[Badabingbadaboom]

At least BB not like college football where same teams make it to a Final 4 every year.

 

[pisgah101]

Hope Bob Knight can enjoy this

 

[PixelDevil]

@Fightfan1 is an absolute troll, don't know how some of you haven't figured that one out yet.

 

[FearTheBeard_rivals208808]

After watching TT play the last two games, I kind of would rather have Gonzaga waiting in the F4. But, let’s win tomorrow first!

 

[denverexpat]

No it should have been Gonzaga ball.

Thought so but it was so obvious I thought that there must be some different rule.....broadcasters missed it too!

 

[tripleb71]

Ahahahahahahahaha. Looked soft to me.

We don't match up well with Gonzaga. We match up well with Texas Tech.

Did I seriously have to explain that?

 

[tripleb71]

They have looked good past few games, but they have games with epic breakdowns. See thier WVU tourney game.

I'd rather take my chance with a team that goes stone cold at times.

 

[dukebluesTX]

Both are good teams but if we are fortunate to win tomorrow, obviously I'd rather play a team we beat rather than a team that beat us.

 

[IPSYCHOSIS]

Man the refs sure are missing some calls late in games lately...
