Feel like we hit the snooze button here. Wake me up if Vermont makes a run.

Throw on a press, Hoiberg and see what happens. Nothing else has worked, defensively. Who knows? It might energize ‘em while there is still time. If nothing else…go down swinging. JMO

Pretty much. Now they're just chucking passes past each other. They're looking (not to say they are) emotionally and physically gassed. And A&M looks like a nontrivial factor. They show no signs of letting up with 6 left and a 22 pt lead.

Corndawgs gave the effort (even if disjointed), but the Aggies have thier number. They have been my 2nd fave B1G team to watch, but making it hard to watch them tonight

I am ambivalent about Auburn getting knocked out. Love it that Pearl loses in first round as a four. And nice to know that any idea of Pearl to Kentucky is now dead. But kind of hoped to get Auburn in the Elite 8, North Carolina in the Final Four, and Purdue in the championship game to exercise all Illini demons in three games.

I have a confession. I wasn't basketball aware when the Pearl/Deon thing went down. My first experience or knowledge of Pearl even existed was when I went to a basketball camp at Southern Indiana in 2001 or so. I had heard at that point that he was not pleasant, but I saw no evidence while I was there. From what have observed from afar Pearl reminds of of Frank Martin, therefore Underwoood as well.

Then recently, I looked at his X profile...and well...I agree with him on some political stances. I'm not sure what to do, since everyone here hates him so.

Playing like that, TX A&M might beat Houston. 54% from 3 (24 shots). Taylor 7/10 from 3. Obaseki a mere 3/5.

I filled out a similar Illini Revenge Bracket, except I went with Houston in the final four the Sampson/Gordon factor

Rough start for Bucky, not valuing the basketball
