The NCAA Sweet 16 and Elite 8 Thread

All this contact and pushing and grabbing and they call a cheapy on Timme not that it matters 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.

And the bad thing on the foul was Gonzaga had already secured the rebound and player's headed up the floor when ref decided to blow whistle

True, but that is the kind of contact that Timme has been getting away with all season. I dont mind if he misses the final four.

FAU to the Final Four.

Good to see........lot of good ball being played today!

UConn looks to be peaking at right time. They lost 6 out of 8 games in the middle of the season watching them in this tournament and you wonder how was that possible.

The hatred for this team was the shooting and non arrest or suspension of Brandon Miller that's all it's about it's not about our football winning championships

Yea they are playing like they were when they beat us and won so many in a row they're going to be a tough out

Goes to show you if we would've hit 10 three's we're playing tomorrow

Yep, true. I think if we would have just made 3 more 3's and had 1-2 less turnovers, we would have won. It will be interesting to see how San Diego State does today.

This Uconn team harkens back to the talent-rich and balanced ones of UCLA during the Wooden years.

SD State game ugly again looks like a rugby match and refs letting them play. Only 13 total fouls called 30 minutes into game. They ride you all the way around the court then you try to get room to drive and the call charge.

Horses*** you call nothing all game and slight contact you call that.

Was about to post the very same thing. They beat on each other the entire game and then you call that?

If I’m the Creighton HC, I’d have more than they few words for the officiating on that last foul call.

 

[bamadwain]

If you call it early in the game ok but don't call it late when you haven't called it, also Creighton player was on the line when he threw the ball

Can you imagine if that ending happened to us and we got called for that foul. Every fan on here would been suspended for foul language and everyone would be like they just wanted us out.

Exactly I'd made them tee me up

We are going to see a championship game blowout like the Georgia/TCU game in football. Will turn out to be one of the lowest rated viewed games in several years.

That is the point. Those two teams beat on each other for 39 minutes and 58 seconds. That call wouldn’t have been made earlier in the game.

I was just thinking that and then you factor in no one will care about the SD State game vs FAU just to get into championship game. That will be lowest watched final four game. However the media will write story after story about how great it is these teams are in Final Four.

Does UConn play Texas/Miami winner? Believe that's where your champion will come from. Probably UConn.

Ref had money on SD State. lol.

Was it the same refs that did our game against SDSU?
