***Round of 32 - Monday Games Thread***

[jhmossy]

8 teams in the Sweet 16 so far and all 8 come from different conferences. However, none of those teams come from the B1G who went 0-3 yesterday.

 

[duckboy33]

Got a few more hours to see if my Covid plan worked again with Iowa

 

[bMORE607]

Excuse me sir, we only went 0-3. Maryland losses tonight.

That’s my bad. I will edit the OP.

 

[bMORE607]

They real question is can the B1G complete the bed shitting and lose all 3 today? It honestly would be a remarkable feat of ineptitude to have 2 1 seeds, a 2 and a 4 all get bounced before the sweet 16.

If anyone can pull it off...

I don’t think so. I like Michigan and Iowa to advance. I think Maryland goes down. It’s still not going to be a good look only have 2 S16 teams assuming it plays out that way.

That's what I have as well, but I would not be completely shocked to see Fran piss down his leg. The B1G hopes are now pinned to Juwan (first year in the tournament and without one of his best players), Fran, and Turge.

Really going out on a Lim here bud. Chalk all the way

 

[BawlzDeep]

OU is going to curbstomp the Zags today.

nah. It’s going to look like Oklahoma’s final 4 game against Villanova a few years ago

This tournament has been unpredictable to say the least. OU has a punchers' chance to come out and drop bombs. I know they've played like shit the last month, but they could find their form again. Why not now? It's do or die. Leave it all on the floor. OU 85 Zags 82. David beatcrushes Goliath.

This tourney as been unpredictable but like Gonzaga has been all season. They are still a level above everyone else.

 

[bMORE607]

Yesterday was pretty wild, so today will be probably be all chalk.

Everyone is undefeated until they're not. Zags had a nice run.

 

[thebasketballreasons]

Lets see how many upsets will happen today. The first game is Iowa vs Oregon, should be an interesting one. We dont know if Oregon Ducks are well-rested or rusted, and the first 10 minutes of the game can be crucial.

I think Harmon is still out for OU (second leading scorer)

 

[Toast.]

It's sick that there are games on a Monday, these student-athletes should be studying and in class!

 

[BawlzDeep]

Next man up mentality

 

[AuHoosier420]

Next man up mentality

It’s not going to be close

 

[BawlzDeep]

It’s not going to be close

Zags didn't want to be there. Go OU!

 

[thebasketballreasons]

Interestingly, the odds were Southern Cal -1 at the beginning, now suddenly its KU -1.

Just checked and my book still has USC -1. KU +1 it is.

 

[hawkit3113]

Let's go Hawks!!!

 

[dukedevilz]

I think everyone on Oregon's roster is 6'6. That could create some interesting matchups, especially with Garza down low.

Starting lineup is 6-5, 6-6, 6-6, 6-6, 6-6

My guess is Dana is going to start up in his matchup zone and see if they can defend Garza with that. If not, they will have to bring in Lawson and Kepnang

 

[hawkit3113]

Crazy pace.

 

[BawlzDeep]

I like the pace of play. Both teams are bringing it.

 

[ThePhog08]

I love the gameplan by the ducks. Let Garza eat and stop everyone else.

Just wait until we put our black players in.

Game over

 

[BawlzDeep]

No way Garza can stay with the pace of the game. He'll be winded deep in the 2nd half.

 

[hawkit3113]

Good to see our defense is back to normal

 

[thebasketballreasons]

Defense has been nonexistent in this game so far.

 

[duckboy33]

Not a lot of defense early. Both teams getting a lot of easy buckets. It will be interesting to see if either sides starts making 3s. Both shot the 3 ball when during the year.

This favors Oregon, IMO

 

[BawlzDeep]

Williams letting his nuts hang early

 

[thebasketballreasons]

Oregon came out on fire and man, they made a lot of tough contested shots.
