tkam Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 I'm watching the high quality stream online (all the streaming is via silverlight) and I'm extremely impressed with the quality. It's probably the best quality stream I've ever seen. Now I just have to keep an eye out for some good games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoonShine Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 Yes me 2. I am also impressed with the nice quality. My bracket Final Four: Wake / UCONN Pitt / NC UCONN beats Pitt in the final. I need Clemson to do well and get to the field of 8 for me to be in the money though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guzziguy Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 Now I just have to keep an eye out for some good games Right now, Memphis vs. CSU Northridge. Memphis is struggling and only has a 4 point lead at the half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkam Posted March 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 Right now, Memphis vs. CSU Northridge. Memphis is struggling and only has a 4 point lead at the half. That's mostly due to the foul trouble though, three Memphis starters had 2 fouls and missed at least 10min of the first half. LSU v Butler is getting good as well, Butler is only down 1 now after making a short run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoonShine Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 Go Butler! Those 8/9 seed matchups are what make or break a bracket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoonShine Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 Yes, I have the Huskies going all the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBLoudG20 Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 This looks to be our best shot to repeat the 2004 performance. The women are a shoe-in and the men have a great shot, until we lose Thabeet. He just changes the game in the paint. Too bad the students aren't as fun as when it happened in '04. I was a freshman, and it was utter insanity on campus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guzziguy Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 Yes, I have the Huskies going all the way. I don't think that UConn has much of a chance to go all the way. Losing Jerome Dyson is the reason. Guard play is key in the tournament and not having one's starting point guard pretty much kills a team's chances.

Guard play is key in the tournament and not having one's starting point guard pretty much kills a team's chances. Dyson's been out most of the season, and they still hung with the best. With Dyson, there is no doubt we'd have a great chance, but I don't think its time to wave the flag. Price is still damn good at the job. However, there is a major hole left, and that surely was demonstrated both Pitt games. Nobody could hang with Young, but Dyson would likely have filled the spot.

tkam Posted March 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 Agreed losing Dyson was a huge loss for UConn. Without him AJ price is the only decent shooter they have to rely on in late games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoonShine Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 Yes it was a gamble but I wanted to pick someone besides Louisville, Pitt, Duke, or NC. It came down to Wake Forest, Kansas, or UCONN and I just went with a hunch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aura Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 Looks like I'll be 6 out of 7 for the first 7 games today. My final four is Louisville, Memphis, UNC, and Nova. Kinda wishing I hadn't ran with Memphis now, that first game was disheartening. Hopefully they can pick it up next round. We'll see what happens...

MoonShine Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 5 out of 7 here but I had Butler and Cal losing next round so it shouldn't hurt too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ojnihs Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 Fuck Clemson fucked me so hard, I had them going to the Elite Eight. God damn it. VCU losing by a bucket got me too, damn it. I'm going Pitt, Memphis, UNC, and Wake. Pitt and Memphis in the final with Pitt coming out on top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aura Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 I'm still doing alright, only bad move I made was trying to pick a cinderella in Mississippi St., had them in the Sweet 16 vs. Uconn. I'm 12 of 16 so far. Got lucky with UCLA over VCU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
