VANDY & SEC COY
Just laid an egg… and it came out rotten…
I just wish UK was on TV here
I will be blessed with UNI instead!
Glad mmod.ncaa.com is free, gonna hook my laptop’s HDMI cable up to my 46" TV just like I had to do for the SECT final, I just hope the MMOD feed is as good as the ESPN360 one or it being stretched that wide will be horrid. If it doesn’t work that well I will have 5 very upset Wildcat fans.

I'm sure glad our game

and the whole building must be watching where i am, the feed is jerky and broken up. buffering is the word of the day…

CBS did a really great job with this player....I dont know how it is working for everyone else, but it is smooth as silk here
and clean sharp picture

It's pretty good here as well.
Of course, I am running about 10 programs at the same time, so it’s not totally smooth. :-)

is it wrong that I am rooting against the SEC in this one?
I really want BYU to win
"Come test me every day if you want," says Pujols, "Everything I ever made in this game I would give back to the Cardinals if I got caught."
Well, I would love for the SEC to show that they were not as weak as everyone
said, and that the Big East was not as strong
I AM THE CAT......The Cat In The Hat!!!
Yeah I would too
but I like BYU and don’t really care for Florida
"Come test me every day if you want," says Pujols, "Everything I ever made in this game I would give back to the Cardinals if I got caught."
Wow. Double OT.

"Come test me every day if you want," says Pujols, "Everything I ever made in this game I would give back to the Cardinals if I got caught."

Jimmer Is A Player
If Wall/Bledsoe could dribble as well as Fredette they and UK would be unstoppable.

I digging the Ivan Brothers commercials
Just saw Tubby hyping them. “…could win with one Ivan, with both of them, wow.”
Did you notice that when there is a commercial on
That you cannot switch to another game, the controls get greyed out. Is there a way around that?
It is offered as a free service that is probably why
"Come test me every day if you want," says Pujols, "Everything I ever made in this game I would give back to the Cardinals if I got caught."
Sam Houston St. up on Baylor
Some say a comet will fall from the sky. Followed by meteor showers and tidal waves.

that one I did call
I also had SHS beating ND
"Come test me every day if you want," says Pujols, "Everything I ever made in this game I would give back to the Cardinals if I got caught."
They are tied, and are not even hitting any 3s
If they start hitting 3s, then they are going to run away

True
SHS: 1-15 (6.7%) Bay: 4-12 (33.3%)
If those percentages were reversed that game would be completely different about now

Donovan Doldrums
Back-to-back NIT’s followed by a first-round exit. It’s magic!

77/78 was a good year
You could still drink in Tenn at age 18, and well, it isn’t that far from Murray St. Probably why my grades suffered my frosh year. My brothers were mid/late 80’s.
I live in Murray and the town was deserted during the OVC Tournament.
People are nuts around here. 31 victories, but they expected to win this game. This is a very good defensive team.

Dont tell anyone.....they think we only play basketball......lol

Vandy playing like they are lost.....
what is up with everyone????
I AM THE CAT......The Cat In The Hat!!!
I like it
Hopefully Cal is using this as a lesson for the team. Slack off just a bit and one of the “lower” seeds can and will knock you off.
Plus, from a more superstitious standpoint, let’s get all the upsets out of the way early, so the ranked teams can cruise tonight!
Vandy has woke up a little bit, but they still are playing like they have slept in a week
I AM THE CAT......The Cat In The Hat!!!
My Memory Isn't Great
But it doesn’t seem as though there were so many close games early. 3/4 now underway are within a couple of points. Keep this up and it’ll be many Shining Moments.

Head, and bracket, says Vandy but my heart wants Murray
I’ll admit it. I’m a SEC homer, so I almost always pick SEC at least initially in the brackets. So naturally I picked Vandy. But my son is going to Murray next year and am rooting for them.
First time poster, loooong time reader Thanks for good, vibrant, informed discussion, unlike virtually anywhere else. Go Cats!!
Things are more like they are now then they have ever been before.
Welcome and Go Racers!
I may be an SEC homer but I chose Murray because I used to live near there, went to see my high school play in the state tourney regional there, played in some band competitions there, etc. Love Murray and Murray State.
"Come test me every day if you want," says Pujols, "Everything I ever made in this game I would give back to the Cardinals if I got caught."
Holy Cow
Murray State wins
Boy, UK’s RPI is gonna stink now
LOL
No matter where you're at, there you are
What a finish
My wife came running in to see what was wrong.
BTW, who cares about RPI now? We got our draw.
With the LOL I figured as much.
I’m gonna take a Bball break for awhile. See you all this evening. Go Blig Blue
in retrospect
a pretty bad one :)
But heck, I’m having a bad afternoon. My bracket is on life support
No matter where you're at, there you are
Murray State moves on with last second shot!!!!!.....Vandy falls like a domino again
I AM THE CAT......The Cat In The Hat!!!
Definitely A Shining Moment!
"Perhaps the fact that we have seen millions voting themselves into complete dependence on a tyrant has made our generation understand that to choose one's government is not necessarily to secure freedom" - Hayek
I almost always cheer for the SEC
I do however, make an exception with an SEC team is playing a Kentucky team without the name Louisville. I have a hard time cheering for Vanderbilt which is, in my humble opinion, the dirtiest team in the conference. Too bad for them they couldn’t play in that cluster____ they call a gym. Congratulations Racers!
I may be paranoid, but that doesn't mean they're not out to get me.
yeah helped mine
ODU hurt a bit but I only had ND going one game, but SMS losing to Baylor hurt I had them beating ND
"Come test me every day if you want," says Pujols, "Everything I ever made in this game I would give back to the Cardinals if I got caught."
My Facebook just blew up with all my alum friends going crazy
Of course its difficult, its a shortcut... if it was easy it'd just be "the way."
Lets fight Racers onto the Goal!!!!!!
Unless Kentucky wins the whole shebang, I think that will be the highlight of the tourney for me!
Of course its difficult, its a shortcut... if it was easy it'd just be "the way."
Yeah, but we'll blow them out ;-)
So the buzzer beater will still be the big highlight. LOL
