barring a perfect regular season filled with top OOC wins, i dont think Zaga will be a 1 coming out of that conference again. they looked absolutely terrible in both games

Its over brehs.

New Mexico going out in the first round even tho they are supposedly the best team from the best conference in America.

UNLV taking an L to Cal

St Louis catching the beats by Oregon tonight

VCU getting punked too

And Gonzaga not looking like a number one seed at all this tournament

And Butler lost tonight also, but on they moving to Power conference status after moving to the Big East.


Its over brehs.

And #1 Gonzaga catching that haymaker from Wichita State Shockers but aren't they a Mid Major school:leon:

either they do some shyt like only lose one game in a season or they have a schedule like UNLV or UMass used to have and win those games. That shyt is over for Gonzaga. Ive never seen a one seed look so bad in the tournament in both games.

I know Wichita beat them, thats the cruel irony of this. Their coach was trying to boost Gonzaga after the game by calling them inspirational and what not, but he knew what happened.

i've always hated gonzaga for no good reason. they just always seemed like regular season bullies. mark few is way too proud of a sub .500 tourney record.

Im still surprised that St. Louis got beat like they did yesterday. They were my sleeper final four team.

I think I'd say RIP Gonzaga's rep. But the Mid-Majors had legit teams this year. St. Louis, VCU, Butler, and Wichita State are actually good teams. I've watched more college basketball this past year than usual (and I usually watch a lot to begin with) and none of those teams were overrated. Middle Tennessee was some bullshyt, I'll give you that.

New Mexico choked, plain and simple. They had a team capable of a Final Four run. Losing to Harvard is inexcusable. Alford is a fukking dipshyt. UNLV got fukked with a rematch in a road game against a lower seed.

The tourney is always weird because you can never predict when talent will overcome mediocre coaching and/or its own underachieving. I never knew what to expect from Minnesota, UNLV, Michigan, Iowa State and North Carolina all year, game to game, half to half.

On another note, shouldn't JT III be fired at this point? If Howland can go to 3 straight Final Fours and recruit NBA talent but still get kicked to the curb, how can anyone justify keeping JT III around?

He should be fired. They have lost to a double digit seeded team four or five times now.. but I wonder how much influence John Thompson still has over the program.
