2021 NCAA Tournament Open Thread

Cameras should focus on grown men like me weeping openly over my team’s misfortune.

Seriously, how untalented is this UConn team? Not much talent that jumps off the screen.

So, the only two seeds missing in the second round are the 14 and the 16. Now that Michigan’s safely through, I say, let’s go ACU and Norfolk State.

Ohio U has a couple of nice upsets this century. Good tournament program.

I remember the head of CBS or whoever being asked about and he said they’d keep doing it.

What kills me with that though is it has literally zero impact on their numbers. There is not a single person who is turning into a game to see kids cry.

Only three perfect brackets remaining after the Virginia loss. All three have Mizzou and UConn winning.

That’s one of the main reasons that I don’t watch the Little League World Series.

I certainly hope there will be some reports made to the league office about the low quality of the opponent selected for the team of high moral character led by a coach with over 34 years of experience. This was a highly unbefitting selection.

I remember they kept showing Manbun’s little brother in the Houston game in ‘18. Every time his brother scored we had to see the boy. Though I think they had the decency to not show him at the end.

they did, actually, but he wasn’t crying so they cut away. meanwhile the Northwestern kid was bawling so they locked in on him for about two hours.

Well the Big is now 6-3 at least not bad after the start losing OSU and Purdue. All three losses in OT too so can’t say any blown out either. Need to get 3-4 in sweet 16 and 1-2 in elite 8 and a final four team or will say overrated for sure.

I mean, I don’t really care what anybody thinks of the Big Ten, but if you’re a 2 seed, I don’t think you can really say “well, we went to overtime; at least we didn’t get blown out.”

Thought Uconn was better would have much rather played them than LSU.

I’m really bitter that Purdue lost. 7-2 with the only losses being Sparty and the Buckeyes would have been golden.

Trade Purdue for MD and it would have been -chefs kiss-.

UConn’s entire offense seemed to be predicted on getting fouled. No fouls = no win.

They would have been fine with our refs.

/Gestures nonchalantly at Norfolk St. - Gonzaga at the under 16 and Jalen Suggs’ 2 fouls.

We always knew they were overrated, stop the count

I’m concerned about the result after LSU/St. Bonnie’s game. I’m shocked that St. Bonnie’s doesn’t have anyone tested positive from COVID test and I hope NCAA are prudent on keeping tab on LSU tonight and tomorrow
