Title: CUSE ! (Is your team on the bubble) ? Post by: Denver_Bronco on March 08, 2006, 02:22:55 pm Huge W. Gerry McNamara just knocked down a 3 as time expired giving my boys a 74-73 win over Cincinnati. Both teams are on the bubble and this was a huge game. Hopefully this will be enough to get Syracuse into the field of 64.
Next up: UCONN This game could be ugly. They might get crushed. Title: Re: CUSE ! (Is your team on the bubble) ? Post by: YoFuggedaboutit on March 08, 2006, 09:11:47 pm Why don't we all do an office pool once they announce the 64 team NCAA Tourney?
Can anyone come up with a set of brackets than can be modified online? Title: Re: CUSE ! (Is your team on the bubble) ? Post by: raptorsfan29 on March 08, 2006, 09:32:56 pm uconn is going all the way no point.
Title: Re: CUSE ! (Is your team on the bubble) ? Post by: Denver_Bronco on March 09, 2006, 07:17:41 am uconn is going all the way no point. UCONN eats dung. Villanova is better then them.Title: Re: CUSE ! (Is your team on the bubble) ? Post by: YoFuggedaboutit on March 09, 2006, 07:56:23 am UCONN eats dung. Villanova is better then them. I'd hate to say this, but 'Nova will be lucky to make the Sweet 16. They don't have enough height. Too many guards, not enough experienced big men. They're gonna get crushed by an established ACC team. Title: Re: CUSE ! (Is your team on the bubble) ? Post by: Denver_Bronco on March 09, 2006, 08:13:27 am I'd hate to say this, but 'Nova will be lucky to make the Sweet 16. They don't have enough height. Too many guards, not enough experienced big men. They're gonna get crushed by an established ACC team. Not so much height is true. But how about reversing it and saying that no teams have the guards to match them when they put like 4 on the floor at once. That is killer dude. And whose to say they ever play an ACC team ? Thats the thing about the NCAA. Its about luck and getting the right matchup. I wouldn't like Nova's chances against Duke or Michigan State. Thats about it. Denverdamus says Nova wins national championship. Eat my shorts ! Title: Re: CUSE ! (Is your team on the bubble) ? Post by: YoFuggedaboutit on March 09, 2006, 02:58:31 pm Not so much height is true.

Denverdamus says Nova wins national championship. Eat my shorts ! The ACC consistently sends 5 or 6 teams to the big dance every year. That four guard lineup isn't going to work in the NCAA Tournament. You need guys that can rebound and dominate in the paint. Case in point: Illinois vs UNC in the Final last season..... Illinois guards were raining three pointers all night, but eventually they stopped going in. Meanwhile, Chad May, UNC's muscular power forward, was eating Illinois alive in the paint. The result.... a convincing win for UNC. Title: Re: CUSE ! (Is your team on the bubble) ? Post by: EDGECRUSHER on March 09, 2006, 04:43:26 pm Syracuse was so close to giving this game away. After that kid stole the inbounds pass and shanked the layup, I was almost certain they were gonna lose.

Eat my shorts ! want to bet on it Title: Re: CUSE ! (Is your team on the bubble) ? Post by: Denver_Bronco on March 10, 2006, 08:28:28 am want to bet on it Whats the bet ? You get the other 63 teams ? So i get 64-1 odds, right ? Title: Re: CUSE ! (Is your team on the bubble) ? Post by: Denver_Bronco on March 10, 2006, 11:09:31 am Syracuse was so close to giving this game away.

There is no such thing as giving away a game when you are playing the #1 team in the nation and you are unranked.Title: Re: CUSE ! (Is your team on the bubble) ? Post by: Denver_Bronco on March 11, 2006, 11:10:14 am Hey, well i'll be damned. Guess who's in the big east championship game ? ;D
Title: Re: CUSE ! (Is your team on the bubble) ? Post by: bsfins on March 11, 2006, 11:23:24 am I'm just happy to hear all the national scuttlebutt about the Missouri valley conference...
Title: Re: CUSE ! (Is your team on the bubble) ? Post by: YoFuggedaboutit on March 11, 2006, 09:37:59 pm It's funny how in those smaller and lesser known conferences, you pretty much have to win your tournament in order to have a chance at going to the NCAA's. Most of those teams won't even get a second look without that automatic bid.
Title: Re: CUSE ! (Is your team on the bubble) ? Post by: bsfins on March 12, 2006, 03:37:27 am The Mo Valley typically get 2 teams in the tournament,But they don't say much about them...Ohh yeah Sothern Il,And Crieghton...Or N.Iowa,and SW Mo. St (Mo State Now).In the Past we've made some noise...Mo State made it to the sweet 16 a few years ago.Crieghton made some noise a couple of years ago.
I'm not a basketball fan,but basketball is king around here. I just find it funny,Listening to to ESPN radio,Or sportscenter,and hear the Local college's name being batted around. Title: Re: CUSE ! (Is your team on the bubble) ? Post by: YoFuggedaboutit on March 12, 2006, 08:27:02 am Well, I do declare!!! Syracuse has won their second straight Big East Conference Tournament!!! This is big for them. They no longer have to worry about being "on the bubble" as they now have that automatic bid.
