2022 NCAA Tournament Open Thread

Well, I guess that’s it for the NCAA tournament as far as my own spectating goes. UNC, Duke, Kansas, Villanova in a Final Four is he llish.

There are 358 NCAA Division 1 men’s basketball teams. There are 354 teams that I would rather see in the Final Four than North Carolina, Duke, and Kansas. (I can live with Villanova but they are about #345 on my list.)

Uncontested St P dunk turns into a jump ball for UNC . . . the first half in a nutshell.

Saint Peter’s has officially run out of steam.



The only think I know in life is that I don’t know anything @kturnup @BigBoutros

In fairness as of that date they were quite mediocre. They were bubbly in late Feb even. Lost @ Pitt around then. Playing better now of course

FTR I gave up after the first half of the UNC game. Thought maybe they would still make the tourney but it would be ugly getting there.

Manek getting the rest of Dawson Garcia’s minutes I think was the turning point for their season. Garcia bad.

Imo, UNC vs Duke would be an incredible final four game. Just don’t watch or listen to any content from tonight until the tip. Plus, it leaves the possibility that Coach K goes out in arguably the most heart breaking fashion. Losing your final home game to UNC, then a final four game to UNC.

What a horrid Final Four this is going to be. Perhaps basketball purists may dig the games themselves, but Duke, UNC, Kansas, and Villanova? Double gurf.

Edit: To specify, the hate-these-teams-o-meter is high. The quality of basketball will be moot.

Ndefo has gotten some nba buzz but he’s a really hideous offensive player. He’ll get a chance cause his defense tho

I miss the Carolina Four Corner offense! :wink:

Edit:. I wonder how many guys have no idea what that is! :rofl:

This is where the game is essentially over and you just don’t want to get anyone hurt!

NINETEEN rebounds for Bacot! Oh my!

Only way this could be any worse is if the ncaa removed Villanova and inserted Kentucky. What a blue-blood bore.
