Wide Open: 2009-10 College Basketball Season

[Ryany]

I don't think I've ever seen a team only score 4 points in the first 12.5 minutes of a game. Shooting 11% to start a game will do that to you.

I think Davidson started something like that last year against Purdue. The team should be ashamed of themselves for giving the committee an excuse to drop their seed. Hopefully the seeds are already mostly set and they will be too lazy to drop them. At least try to go inside when you aren't hitting anything. Also, having 3 players on the court who won't take even an open shot just makes the 2 good players get double/triple teamed every time they get the ball.

Did you watch Cincinnati in the BET?

Holy shit at this Kentucky/Mississippi State game.

[Moss]

Fuck Kentucky. John Wall fails his second game winner with an airball, only to have Cousins score his 8th point on a put back. The team then acts like they just won the National Championship even though they still have OT.

[Headspace]

Miss State is going to fuck them up for that stupid celebration

[Moss]

If that fucking white dude hadn't thrown the worst inbounds pass of all time, a fucking overhead bounce pass at the dude's feet into the corner.

[Moss]

Are you fucking kidding me with that no call. Cousins is such a bitch.

[Akiyama]

Wtf is up with John Wall, rofl.. what a shot

[Moss]

next is "John Wall is clutch with his lucky ass end of the shot-clock 3 with the team already up two" even though he failed in regulation. god this game pissed me off

[Akiyama]

Christ. This game is terrible. 4-3 after almost 7 minutes?

[Kirin]

How can the NCAA NOT give Duke a 1 seed? This idea is simply silly...West Virginia my ass.

I agree.

This could be the year a 16-seed beats a 1-seed. Let's make history!

[Ryany]

I think Duke probably should get the final 1-seed, but I definitely see the case for other teams. Duke's best win was Gonzaga and they also have one over Maryland. The rest are mostly solid, but not top 25 wins.

[Byrd]

Interesting, they gave Syracuse the #4 overall seed and Duke #3, that's surprising.

[Ryany]

Michigan State a 5....Tennessee a 6....Wow

[Headspace]

FLORIDA?!

[Ryany]

Syracuse got a bad draw. Gonzaga should have been a 3rd round team for them and not a 2nd round team.

[Moss]

Tennessee blows. Who are their big wins besides Kansas? (not rhetorical I'm curious)

[Ryany]

They also beat Kentucky

[Kyo]

I really dont see Kentucky coming out of their bracket, lots of tough teams in theirs.
