Mowins and Antonelli should be the A team. Don't get the love for Ruocco in anything he does.

First game is in the books.

(11) Nebraska 75, (11) Richmond 56
Huskers led by 2 at halftime and then blew it open with a 17-0 run to start the 3rd quarter.
Next up: (6) Baylor on Friday

Uconn is Lobo's alma mater and last I knew Lobo really likes Crooks And Holly is the legend of the women announcers. I think she likes Audi also I saw a clip where she hopped on the team bus and gave Audi a award of some type (community service maybe? I really don't remember)
 
Time to write a get-well card, ISU_Guy...:rolleyes:


That's a terrible headline.

"School officials said on Wednesday they are hopeful Miller will be able to rejoin the Sun Devils in time for their First Four game against Virginia on Thursday in Iowa City."

(16) Missouri State 85, (16) Stephen F. Austin 75
Back-and-forth first half with a couple of big runs each way. Then the Bears rolled out a 13-0 run early in the 3rd quarter and held SFA at arm's length the rest of the way.
Next up: (1) Texas on Friday
 
The second night of First Four games...

Game was tied 51-51 with just under 7:00 left, and then Southern opened it up. Their prize?
Next up: (1) South Carolina
 
(10) Virginia 57, (10) Arizona State 55

Rough shooting first half for both teams. UVA led 48-40 with just over 4:00 to play. ASU came back to tie it 51-51 on a 3-pointer with 0:41 left. UVA answered with their own 3-pointer (4/23 after that make) to retake the lead.

ASU played the foul game to extend the contest, but turned the ball over in the final seconds before getting a shot off.

Virginia moves on to face (7) Georgia
