Poor Jason Sheer.

Arkansas went into prevent about three minutes ago and their offense has been **** ever since

Holy crap - a 15 has upset a 2 in the last 3 tournaments

I actually picked a 15 seed to win this week, bummer it wasn't Princeton. But , yes, a 15 seed winning isn't a huge deal any more. Hell last year a 15 got to the Elite 8.

Always good to see a down trodden upstart have a huge upset......oh wait that was Princeton? Yeah screw those guys.

 

[CloniesForLife]

Oh wow Illinois coming back here

 

[cayin]

Arkansas playing with very low bb IQ.

 

[helechopper]

I think it’s a testament to how far the game has grown. There’s good players at all levels now.

I agree and was thinking th exact thing.

Basketball is democratized now.

Think the one and done plus going straight to the G league has helped balance the talent out more then anything

Why does Brad Underwood dress like he sells Lincolns in 1977

Des Moines sounds loud

Illinois getting breaks on top of undeserved home game.

He’s aged poorly hasn’t he?

I just got an email from YouTubeTV that I’ll get to test four screens at once.

I'd much rather get that one than the one I got about raising the price.

 

[awd4cy]

I was going to say it feels like a 15 beating a 2 feels like a yearly occurrence anymore.

It’s also happened in 7 of the last 11 tournaments. Definitely a normal thing now

2s aren’t as dominant as old days imho

 

[Die4Cy]

Illinois sort of being punk ass down the stretch here

If memory serves, Princeton almost was first 16 to knock off a 1 (1989, lost 50-49 to Georgetown). In 1996, Purdue barely escaped Western Carolina, I think a few other tight ones over the years before UMBC did it.

If you already had the 4K option you actually save 2 bucks overall

Des Moines sounds loud

Springfield would be pretty loud if 9 seed ISU got to play there.
