Wow that’s huge. Oregon is going to have fresh legs

I’d have rather played a game if I were them.

Fresh, but it also helps to play a game and stay sharp

Well the built in excuse if Oregon beats Iowa is set.

How long has VCU been there?

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

No. There have been 2 times in which there was only 1 upset.

Thursday, March 16, 2000 (Friday only had 2 upsets) - Only upset was #10 Gonzaga 77 #7 Louisville 66
Friday, March 20, 2015 (Thursday had 4 upsets) - Only upset was #11 Dayton 66 #6 Providence 53

2000 had the fewest first round with 3, but had the most second round with 9.

I think you got what a meant. I was talking about a single first round day i.e. in the past Thurs/Friday. I figured there hasn't and won't ever be an entire first round w/o an upset.

I think cringe-worthy is a great description because it doesn't imply that he's an *******. I also hate hawkeye elvis but I wouldn't say he's an ******* because I don't know the guy. I just find him annoying because I find elvis impersonators in general annoying and then you add on to that that he's dressed in all hawkeye stuff.

The worst I'd say about him is that maybe he's a bit of a camera hog

Honestly the Elvis impersonator thing has to have just about run its course right? The guy died almost 45 years ago and the people who first tuned into him when he came on the scene have to be pushing 80. It's a weird American cultural phenomenon.

I got what you meant. I was just showing the other day as a comparison and providing other information.

 

[jsb]

2019 had 12 first round upsets (1 shy of the record)

What the hell do I know? We’re they boring games even with the upsets?

Fresh, healthy>>playing

Only have to wait one more day.

Covering all the bases. I like it.

 

[Jer]

Imagine that, Fran wearing all WHITE.

 

[madguy30]

Uh-oh.

Pushing is against the rules?

 

[Cyched]

Dear Hoks,

We know a little something about double fouls over here in Cyclone Nation

It's okay to not be okay

 

[Clonehomer]

Huh, a fran team unable to control their emotions?

 

[Rabbuk]

I love that they scouted iowa enough to know you don't need to guard connor from more than 8 feet out.

 

[ClonesTwenty1]

GCU is awful. I doubt they stay in this too much longer.

 

[NorthCyd]

Takes about 2 minutes of film study to figure that out.

 

[Cyched]

Incredible how they whine after every single call

 

[Peter]

Yeah they looked way overmatched. This should be an easy game for the hawks.

 

[trevn]

They're used being in the double bonus, not their opponent.

 

[CloneGuy8]

Would have been nice if Iowa drew Fellatio Bob as their 15 seed
