    That game was like watching slovenly Tom Crean versus neat Tom Crean
    Extremism is so easy. You've got your position, and that's it. It doesn't take much thought. And when you go far enough to the right you meet the same idiots coming around from the left.

      Can't win consistently giving up the amount of points Indiana did this year.

      Just a terrible defensive team. A lack of a shot-blocking big man was part of that but I think it's also a mentality. The times I've watched them they looked like they wanted to just get the ball back and score.

        Even early in the second half IU players provided minimal defense on layups. A guy gets around two players to lay it in and a third one fouls him with the body or hacks him when it's too late.

            As long as UK wins, that's all that matters to me. I could care less about what the rest do.

                UC Irvine blows it. Terrible shot and then a dumb foul.

                Totally blew it.

                Zebras strike again. Just a beyond horrid no call at the end of the game. How can that stand? How is an incompetent ref like that allowed to be an official in the NCAA tourney?

                NCAA officiating is ruining college basketball.

                  The foul in the corner by UC Irvine was inexplicable. Not sure what they were doing there.

                    Coaching matters. UC coach should NEVER, knowing that UL was using fouls, allowed a play where his player was moving away from the basket on the inbound. The game was lost on that decision, not the foul non call.

                    UL would have fouled and they would have been left with about 2 seconds left to inbound AGAIN, because the coach didn't prepare his players after the first foul.

                      Yeah, I felt the same way. But not sure the coach called that or the player just went that way to get open.

                      Would like to see Valpo knock out Maryland here.

                        Maryland not playing much defense but they are shooting the heck out of it from 3. 9/19 so far

                          So Loserville barely squeaks by a 13 seed.....clearly a missed foul at the end blew it for UC-Urvine

                          and then Pitino says they will now face the best team in the country in Northern Iowa

                                Nice last possession Valpo - you deserve to go home after that nonsense.
