Adrienne Payne ejaculated in the faces of the Ohio State starting 5 on saturday.

Jared Sullinger's face was a glazed donut. 10 turnovers, way to be big guy.

[Notredameleo]

Jim Burr still sucks, in case anyone was wondering.

[T-RICH49]

I have no idea what Bill Self told Withey after the Mizzou loss but Jeff has been a man possessed since then

[T-RICH49]

Shabazz Muhammad is taking an official visit to KU for the Missouri game.HUGE News

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Can we get Miami into March Madness please? Thanks.

[Docta]

Definitely the last game for Bruce Weber. I'll never forget that team in 2005. That tourney game against Arizona was ridiculous.

Weber: "Instead of creating toughness and developing a team I coached not to lose all year, and that's really sad"

[JoeJoeBrown]

OSU won't make it past the Sweet 16 this year. No three point threat and the point guard won't shoot the ball. And Sullinger doesn't kick it out on double and triple teams.

OTOH, these ****** refs need to start calling the insane amount of beating the kid takes. It's getting a bit ridiculous, even with Sullinger flopping around and over-exaggerating.

I know how you feel. Thomas Robinson has been called for two of the worst charge calls I've ever seen one of them may have cost us the Mizzou game

[Wootylicous]

Watching the Uconn game. Is Lamb that good ?

Harkless is ******* awesome. This team should be okay if we can get all of them to stick around and grow together. As mentioned, we have no depth, can't make FT, and can't make shots outside of 15 feet.

[Hurricanes25]

Harkless is ******* awesome and I think there is a lot of room for improvement. If he gets a little bit more aggressive, I think he becomes a star and one of the better players in the country.

I agree. Matta's really starting to piss me off. We have such a ******* talented team sitting on the bench going to waste. It's a joke Amir Williams doesn't get at least a few minutes a game to stop all of these layups we've been allowing. LaQuinton Ross? J.D. Weatherspoon? You can tell they wear down at the end of games the MSU buttrape displayed it. He needs to use his bench a little more or we aren't going anywhere and Matta will continue to look like he can't win the big one.

Bye bye Bruce Weber. Not making the tournament. 2-8 in their last 10 games. Just got crushed by Nebraska.

[yo123]

Meyers Leonard was crying on the bench. Lolz.

This seems like a really weak bubble. I've got:

4 ACC teams
-UNC
-Duke
-Florida State
-Virginia

7 Big East teams
-Syracuse
-Marquette
-Georgetown
-Louisville
-Notre Dame
-West Virginia
-Connecticut

6 Big Ten Teams
-Michigan State
-Ohio State
-Michigan
-Indiana
-Wisconsin
-Purdue

6 Big 12 teams
-Baylor
-Kansas
-Missouri
-Texas
-Iowa State
-Kansas State

2 Pac 12 teams
-I don't know who, just two teams.

4 SEC teams
-Kentucky
-Florida
-Vanderbilt
-Alabama

3 Mountain West
-UNLV
-San Diego State
-New Mexico

2 Atlantic 10 teams
-Temple
-Saint Louis

2 Conference USA teams
-Memphis
-Southern Miss

2 Missouri Valley teams
-Creighton
-Wichita State

So that still leaves, what, 8 at-large teams barring major upsets? They never should have expanded the tourney.

We at VCU disagree with you sir ;)

Didn't watch the game. So glad I didn't.

Sweet 16 will be lucky for OSU at this point.

So pissed at Matta for not using that bench. McDonald's AA's litter the freaking bench and he doesn't play them at all. Develop them and play them for god's sake. He's one hell of a recruiter, but I'm beginning to doubt his coaching accumen.

Not saying these freshman are Kentucky quality, but come freaking on. It's not like the starters outside of Sullinger and Craft are doing jack.

Everyone has regressed on defense. Buford has one awesome shooting night for every three terrible ones.

Sullinger doesn't break down his double teams. Craft is trying to do too much while also not taking enough shots. Smith hustles his ass off but has absolutely zero offense. Thomas has regressed big time from earlier this season on offense and defense.

Not a one can shoot a free throw.

Yet these freshman superstars sit on the pine.

If the starters were tearing it up, fine. But they aren't. Expectations are obviously way too high. Last year was the year, but that bracket was brutal and UK didn't match up well for them and they blew it. Oh well.

As an aside, there are only a few really good teams this year. If UK doesn't win it all, Calapari needs his arse kicked.

Because this awesomeness needs to be in more than just one place.





And basically the same video as the first one but the dunk at the beginning is absolutely ridiculous...

[T-RICH49]

What a game between KU and MU.T-Rob for NPOTY

[ATLDirtyBirds]

**** FSU. Let's dance Miami!

That is amazing.

Indiana's Christian Watford is having a strange season.

He has been awful against mediocre competition but has played great against the top competition.

This basically applies to the team, especially playing at home. This season has been a gigantic step forward for the program.

Oladipo is playing really well and I honestly think the IU offense goes through him. He is starting to figure out how to use his athleticism more consistently off the bounce. Can't wait to see him next year with Yogi.
