I have Purdue in a survivor pool tonight and I just can’t root for these guys anymore - TKR is a goon

Thank you!
Whoever hired Bruce Pearl for March Madness needs to get fired
To my eye and in limited viewing he’s seemed off, off and on, all season.
A little like he could be his kid or younger bro or something.
This one must be some sort of optical illusion tho…

You go from an A++ game crew with Harlan, Stan (who I really like - yes, his voice is grating, but I always learn something when I watch a game he's doing), and Bill Raftery's eventual replacement in Hummel to a BAD studio crew. Thank goodness the games are staggered so I didn't have to listen to that halftime drivel.
One of the reasons I'd like Self to retire is so he can replace Pearl next year. Pearl is BRUTAL on TV. Self would be fantastic.
Can’t wait until I don’t have to ever watch TKR again. Maybe tonight is the night…

Purdue and Tx both playing with intensity and focus. Very competitive game and exactly what a sweet 16 game should be. Love this time if year!

Both of these games are really entertaining, but in different ways. Hard to have them on the multi-view and keep an eye on both of them.
They just robbed Kluff there...
Purdue bigs are at Fears level flailing and flopping and getting rewarded for all of it. Has me rooting for Texas.
Look who's got the Iowa Nebraska game. Something to monitor if we are fortunate enough to pull out tonight's game. IYKYK.

May the basketball gods smile upon us and have this Nebraska-Iowa crowd stick around and support their fellow Big Ten program in an hour or so. A fantastic neutral-site environment, one of the better ones I've heard.

It’s not empty
It's not empty. There are fan sections behind each bench for Illinois and Houston. Iowa and Nebraska sections are opposite those benches.
Me too. To balance it out i bet on Texas to win.
Ah ok, saw someone on Reddit who’s there and said it’s pretty sparse crowd
This early in the evening isn't that good to judge by.
