That OSU game was so scary...I think I had about three or four strokes.

Yeah, today has been a great great day of March Madness, I had to leave when the Vanderbilt game went to overtime, missing both that 2-OT and the VCU comeback to force it's own OT, I was considering recording the channel all night but I decided against it.  Still crazy exciting from what I saw though.

I DVR'd the day's action and caught some shows I missed during the week. Oh no, Colbert picked Kansas, I'm screwed (actually the fact Seth Davis picked them is the real cause for concern, since he is a moron).
I am suprised no one mentioned the bad coaching job WSU's Tony Bennett did at the end of regulation and in the two overtimes. Vanderbilt had three of their top 6 players in foul trouble with 4 the last few minutes of regulation and obviously both overtimes. Yet, WSU never attacked the basket, and especially those three players the entire time. WSU was not in foul trouble so they could afford to get called for a few fouls themselves. WSU just jacked up 3 pt after 3pt. That is what good coaches do, exploit the other teams weakness. Byars, Foster and Skuchas all had 4 fouls, just getting Byars out probably would have changed the outcome.

Game wasn't on here, so I didn't see it.

Am I missing something here?
UVA's player was fucking traveling AND fouled the Tenn. guy, and somehow he gets two free-throws?
Maybe I just don't understand basketball!

Is anyone watching this? Kansas is so big, so talented, but SIU is putting up a great fight (but it's almost painful to watch - they're really, really sloppy tonight). Unfortunately, the only reason they're in the lead right now is because of Tatum.

I'm watching.
Great game. Really competitive, even though SIU is clearly over matched talent wise.

Jay Bilas: "The longer Southern Illinois has the ball, the longer Kansas plays defense."
He gets paid for this?

YES!!!!! Come on SIU!!!!! The Salukis meet the hype. They're raw and quick. And this game is coming down to the defense, anyways. If the Salukis can keep it up, Kansas will be the first #1 seed to go. God, I hope (but I probably just cursed it).
...and I meant Falker, not Tatum.
btw, makeshift, you spelled paid wrong.

Of course I did.
Kansas is going to start hitting the panic button soon. All of those Freshmen, that history of losing in the tournament...

makeshift, you're right.
"He had two C's, both in, ironically, African-American studies!"
How sweet would it be if Kansas lost? Let's not jizz our pants thinking about it, but...

Was that another slice of Bilas gold? I put it on mute right after that ball control comment.

Not sure if it was Bilas or the other guy, but when Tatum was shooting free-throws, one of the guys started blabbing about how he was a Comm. major, a smart young "lad" who likes listening to that rap music in his free-time.

Each game featured a critical break-away missed layup late in the game. SIU is just so good defensively; would've liked to see them go through.

With A&M's loss tonight, and Texas' loss in the round of 34, my final four is officially final fucked.

Watch the OSU/Tenn game online. It's not going good so far, but it'll probably be a better game.

If OSU isn't careful, Tenn is going to straight up blow them out in that game. They are fully capable.
