bigbluepride35 Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 Gotta give props to the Big Ten. I thought Mich St. had a chance but I didnt think Wisconsin would pull it off too. I never hated on them to begin with but definitely DIDN'T expect them to outnumber the ACC in the Elite Eight. And as for the Redick thing. Stoudamire had a better percentage during the season from beyond the line anyway didn't he? So IMHO I don't even think Redick is the best pure 3-point shooter in the country. And he (Stoudamire) can create his own shot, as seen against Oklahoma St. I think Redick's overrated, too. Of course, my anti-Duke bias may blur my judgment on that lol.

L3thal Veteran Posted March 26, 2005 Veteran Share Posted March 26, 2005 They robbed Villanova like they were stealing candy from a baby. Dick Enberg should be fired after his commentary. Watching replay in slow motion: "There's 1 step, 2 steps, (Ray was in the air shooting the ball) 3 steps. Yup, I do agree with the refs, he took 3 steps." Shame how Villanova was robbed in this one. They were my pick to beat UNC before the tournament started as I posted earlier in this thread. P.S. Big 10 still sucks, BroChaos :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/297768-neowins-ncaa-tournament-pick-em/page/8/#findComment-585673562 Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbluepride35 Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 (edited) I tell ya what, even if WVU loses this game they have a trememndous amount of heart. That shot to the head Collins took diving for the loose ball just now was insane. And Pittsnogle could be the next Dirk Nowitzki :laugh: . edit/ Looks like Louisville's the first team in. WVU played a hell of a game. Sorry to see their run end but Louisville deserved it after that comeback. Great game Edited March 27, 2005 by bigbluepride35 Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/297768-neowins-ncaa-tournament-pick-em/page/8/#findComment-585676876 Share on other sites More sharing options...
kak Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 They've lost. JD Collins can't take it to the glass against Myles. No shot in hell. He's done it twice now, once at the end of regulation and doing it in overtime. Just plain out stupid.

BroChaos Veteran Posted March 27, 2005 Veteran Share Posted March 27, 2005 i wouldn't have given it to stoudamire either. i don't know what they were doing, but amari is covered and is like 3 for 15 on the night. what a comeback. i can't even talk right now, my voice is gone, i managed to throw a chair and a couple pillows during the game :p gotta love having home court. and i give props to amari, he's still miles better than j.j. "i write my own poetry" reddick. it's nice to be a big ten fan, 3 of the 4 games featuring a team :) my family is gonna be ****ed tomorrow when i'm ignoring them during easter :p go big ten!

L3thal Veteran Posted March 27, 2005 Veteran Share Posted March 27, 2005 You wouldn't have given it to Stoudamire? Regardless of his bad shooting game, he is the star of the team who beat OK. St. on a last second pull away jumper. Bad play calling at the end by Olsen.

That's why they didn't get the ball to him, and thus, the crappy play at the end. Olson.....great coach....not too original.
