I just think they wanted us out of the tournament.

I just think they wanted us out of the tournament.

I have seen 3 article headlines this morning that suggest they are giddy over us losing. I refuse to click on any of them so I am only making an assumption here. I don't need to read the idiot from al.com to know what he thinks and a yahoo article's headline says that SDSU did "everyone a favor" and the third headline said the tournament finally had someone to root for. I refuse to paste any of the links here.

I was scrolling the news on USA today... the article that lady wrote this morning is worse than the al.com I think. I think it is the same lady who wrote a bad article last week. She has no clue. It was stupid of me to read it. I got mad afterwards.

I actually tweeted her and called her article trash. Not that it matters. But made me feel a little better.

I still don’t understand what is driving this hatred and spite. I am afraid we are truly living in a post-truth society.

Florida Atlantic is 20 minutes away from going to Final Four and would probably been out if not for tie up possession arrow going there way from losing in round one. You have to be good to make a deep run but lot of times you need a few things to break your way as well.

In our elite 8 run, Pettway hit a buzzer beater to get us past Southern Illinois in the first round.

People are stupid.

I had a whole paragraph explaining this one statement and I erased it and just left this simple statement. I think it is better.

FAU lost to Ole Miss. go figure.

 

[Crimson1967]

FAU to the Final Four.

 

[DzynKingRTR]

FAU to the Final Four.

Just goes to show you what a weird year this has been.

I had them losing in the first round.

 

[Bpilktree]

22 turnovers and K-State hits 10-22 from 3 and FAU still wins. +22 on the boards helped them.

 

[BamaMoon]

Wow FAU.

What universe is this???

It's a carryover from hatred towards us on the football field. The whole nation's reaction to this year's BB team was "Oh God, NO. Not basketball too!"

 

[Blindside17]

So how many folks had FAU in your final four. This tournament has been nuts. It's looking more an more like UCONN to me.

 

[Crimson1967]

Florida Atlantic
San Diego State
Creighton

One of the above will be in the national championship game next Monday.

Said the same thing a while back. The college nation would have a come apart if Bama started winning NCs in basketball too!

 

[Bpilktree]

All this contact and pushing and grabbing and they call a cheapy on Timme for number 4, not that it gonna matter as they can’t hit a 3 but the inconsistency of foul calls is just absurd. Players don’t know what they can or can’t do. Clowney last night all that battling inside and most his fouls were cheapies. Too many times you see them eating whistles and it football out there but then a few times a game little to no contact and a fouls called.
