Tennessee defense just stifling Virginia, especially inside.

Any 2 or 6 seed that was getting Virginia as the 3seed was going to get a gem of a draw.

Tre White sure picked the worst time to have his worst game of the season. He has been so bad that he repeatedly has been unable to inbound the ball due to the St John's press. To be honest, after seeing KU's game vs Cal Baptist, this performance is not surprising me. They couldn't shoot the ball in that game and they can't shoot it in this game against a far superior opponent. Looks like Ejiofor is getting the last laugh for now. Imagine being told that Dickinson will take your spot for potentially two seasons and you either have to accept your fate or you can look elsewhere. Good on Zuby for realizing his worth.

With 11 min left, if Kansas can hold SJ scoreless the rest of the way they "might" be able to win

Kansas offense:

Made baskets - 15
Turnovers -15

Kansas was the one clear outlier on the 1-4 line, and they might have lost to Cal Baptist had they remembered how to score in the first 20 minutes.

Wake needs to move on from their coach. He seemed like a decent hire at the time but he's been fairly mediocre throughout his tenure

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Disappointed that there are no Bryce Hopkins posts. Seems like we all have been waiting for this moment for about 6 years.

Banks says it always works when the Badgers flop. (I’ll stay bitter about our BigTen tourney for a while)

Good call. I did watch that interview and they were all definitely in some kind of somber or neutral state of mind. They might not be a super close team unlike our group

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Wow what an abysmal call?

You know it when the announcer deems it “awful call.”

 

[From the cheap seats]

Who woke up Kansas?

 

[SuperMetroid]

St. John’s right now

 

[Illini2010-11]

If Kansas completes the comeback, they can thank the officials. One of the worst wrong over and backs call at a crucial time.

 

[UCantHideYer]

KU with a mighty comeback on a defensive clinic

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Wait that was out of bounds???

Man refs completely screwing St John’s.

 

[Iamgroot]

Things getting intense in the iowa vs Florida game

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Buzzer beater! St. John’s wins it.

 

[ImGonnaBeILL]

St Johns wins at buzzer!

 

[fantasydaily708]

KU wow brutal L

No it wasnt, he got one foot back established and thats all that matters.

 

[Illini2010-11]

Drive half a court with 3.8 seconds for a buzzer beating layup. Feels like we have experience with that, only twice the time and full court.

 

[bavanga3]

WTH are you fouling 75 ft from the basket for? That comeback just to choke by stupidity at the end. Testing Bill Self's heart.
