Re: Elite Eight and forward thread...

It's still anyone's game at this point.

If anything, I give the Tigers the edge because they seem to be rallying around their fallen player.

The Wildcat's defense is pretty stout but Coach Pearl is using creativity to keep them guessing.

There seems to be a lot of Tiger fans in the stands. Both fans getting some great entertainment - not to mention their money's worth.

Re: Elite Eight and forward thread...

You can tell Kenny Smith is beyond done with Barkley having the professionalism of a birthday hat. I mean, he's certainly no journalist, but even as a "television commentator" he has stooped below his usual obnoxious/somewhat good-natured self. If he can't be anything other than a fan, he can buy a ticket to the game, not get paid for his "orange-and-blue bubble machine" idiocy.

Re: Elite Eight and forward thread...

This is going perfect. Let AU hang around to get their hopes up just to lose at the end..
OK. Give a rest. Now. This is not your personal "hate Auburn" thread. It's a basketball thread. You don't like Auburn. We get it. Now get out of the thread...

Puh-leeze. Did you see Kenny during the UNC game? He gives as good as he gets.

UK is going to have to find some offense. Seems to be non existent right now..

No sir, it was a half-hearted attempt to step outside of the bounds of a professionalism at Barkley's behest. He doesn't have to stoop that low as a rule since his program "has been there before". He didn't have a stuffed mascot sitting on top of the table. I'm not one to give an inch to Barkley just because "he's just being Charles".

I love this team no matter what.

While I would love the final 4, the elite 8 is still an excellent result given the circumstances. Playing like crap but still leading this late, can’t ask for much more than that.
If yall win this then I think Auburn is your NC this year. I don't think anyone outside of Michigan St looks like they can beat Auburn after Kentucky

I thought it was okay when he and Kenny did that spill for the UNC-AU game. Agree, it’s a little overplayed at this point. Neither are college basketball analysts so I don’t think most people take them that serious anyhow..

Man you guys have played much better from the point you went down 30-20....

I think you are just use to the supernatural 3-point shooting..... But they have made adjustments and have found another way to score while still playing really great defense.

But they are in no way playing poor my dude.

You know exactly that you’re getting with Charles. If you expected anything different, you’re dense. Objectivity analysis isn’t his thing. He’s an entertainer, full stop.
