somehow Purdue only committed 5 fouls in the first half. LOL

Go Zags!

They're doing a nice job on Edey.

Imagine being a UNC fan right now. LOL

 

[NWICY]

They should have a Spring Practice Football scrimmage between the Tide and the Tigers @ So-Fi on Sunday. Make it a weekend event!

LOL Sofi would be full and wherever the BB game is would still be empty.

I'm sure if you're a fan it's fun watching your team win so much, but Purdue is about the most boring team I've ever watched.

You gotta be effing kidding me. 11 seed NC State going to roll into the elite 8 but the best Iowa State team in recent memory can’t.

NC State is cookin'.

Sometimes it's just kind of like that.

All I care about is Houston somehow cutting down the nets in Glendale to bring home the national title. I like their team a lot, adds another Big 12 team to the winners list (which is what the SEC lives off of in football) and aside from Gonzaga, I don’t like any other team left. Normally I would cheer for NC State but Brad Brownell has made me dislike all ACC teams.

I feel this but I'm on the NC State train. I think they're similar enough to us that I'm cheering for them. Their coach seems to be a good guy too from what little I've seen.

Purdue shooting lights out tonight.

Purdue shooting lights out tonight.

I thought the mention of Painter/Purdue training with Baylor and learning about 3 pt shooting was interesting.

Gonzaga Purdue hella entertaining.

I just got back home, but the words Purdue and entertaining is not something I would normally use together.

I'm rooting for Houston too - unless they run up against Alabama. And ISU would have a 2-1 record vs. the National Champion Cougars and would be responsible for 2 of their 4 losses on the year. I'm cool with Gonzaga too if they can come back on Purdue. Don't care about the other remaining teams one way or the other.

All about the matchups. Hated our region/draw from the second it was announced. Every single potential opponent and round.

 

[HoopsTournament]

Looks like Gonzaga is about to move to a tournament-worst 0-10 vs. #1 seeds all-time.

 

[FriendlySpartan]

Purdue trying to follow in Virginia's footsteps

 

[jctisu]

About to be a hell of a night to be a NC State fan. Both men and women about to earn a spot in the Elite 8 within five minutes of each other.

They don't seem all that talented but just kind of a rag tag group that's letting it fly and it's working.
