Saw Mattress Mack has got his Cougar game on...buy a mattress and get 150% back if Houston wins it all. Seems a win/win for him...if the Coogs win, he got 9:1 on a $1M bet and will only be paying out 1.5:1, and if they lose, the mattresses sold will help him recoup some of the million bucks.
Coogs not looking so hot right now. Wondering what happened to their much vaunted smothering defense.
Baylor seems to be better with overall shooting, hitting 3-pointers, rebounding, and stealing. Did I miss anything?
Nope...at least no one's britches have fallen down for UH while running down the court. Not yet anyway.
Looking forward to a Jesuits v. Baptists final game. (Assuming, of course, that the Zags prevail tonight.)
The game was over when Baylor hit 3 straight threes after being up by 10 already. They stuffed UH early and forced them to shoot 3s and UH couldn't handle it. By the time they were down 20 there was no way back. Much better game in the second half but too late.
I’m glad I’m not emotionally invested in either of these teams or I would be climbing the walls right now.
That was a razor thin game. Gonzaga didn't shoot as well as from the outside as usual. But UCLA went away from Juzang in OT. Timme made a huge impact even with 4 fouls. UCLA shoot really well. That was a great basketball game.
Got to see last four minutes and OT, as someone wrote above I’m glad I wasn’t emotionally invested in either team because that was thrilling for a casual fan let alone someone who lives and dies with one of those teams. And what a shot I had visions of Paulino against WVU in 06 running through my mind.
Good Lord, watching UCLA play is a thing of beauty. That is Naismith, Iba, Wooden, Smith, Knight, Coach K basketball. Where the game is won and lost below the rim, not above it. From a play-in game to a whisker away from a National Title game, wow. Just, wow. Go Zags.
