Tennessee fucks that region on my bracket. Can't count on those sorry ass volunteers for anything.

Otherwise, I'm still in pretty good shape...pending tonight's results!

Samesies. Wanted the opportunity to punk them 3 times in one season.

Like the 2004 football team, except better.

Damnit Buzz. You had the great Rick Barnes ascending to uncharted waters.
But I get it that they had a veteran team with a full fledged admiral.

Damn! Did not see that coming.
Almost dropped a hunnert on them.
AU wins 97-80.

But we sure didnâ€™t need to lose Chupacabra!

Snaggletiger · « **Reply #451 on:** March 29, 2019, 10:39:22 PM »

You're War Damn Right. 2 Blue Bloods made Auburn's BITCH!!! War Damn Chuma.

wesfau2 · « **Reply #452 on:** March 29, 2019, 10:50:13 PM »

We need Chuma through the stretch...but that was a motherfuckin masterpiece of a game.

Snaggletiger · « **Reply #453 on:** March 30, 2019, 12:13:20 AM »

Houston up by 1 with 1:30. Please.

Snaggletiger · « **Reply #454 on:** March 30, 2019, 12:15:19 AM »

Much rather take my chances with or without Chuma on Houston.

Nope. Got fouled on the go ahead layup and the refs ignored it.
AU vs. UK.

CCTAU · « **Reply #456 on:** March 31, 2019, 03:02:29 PM »

Purifoy is lazy. That is all.

jmar · « **Reply #457 on:** March 31, 2019, 03:42:02 PM »

The good news is we seldom are ice cold for two halves and we only went in down by 5 even though it felt like 15.
Foul trouble can be mitigated by threes.

CCTAU · « **Reply #458 on:** March 31, 2019, 05:07:11 PM »

This team has one speed, wide ass open!
And even with the refs protecting the UK big man, we kept pounding!

These guys have made basketball fun again.

They have indeed.
We know Spencer isn't supposed to take that last shot in regulation. Wiley didn't know to give the uncontested layup late and Doughty had big game jitters at the line.
We just haven't been here enough but it sure is fun and unnerving at the same time.

The good news is we get Virginia and we don't have anybody in foul trouble...
