@CBKReport They put on a hell of a show and played with a lot of heart. I’m a Razorback for life, but they gave us a fight. A better one that Wisconsin would have. 👀
The response to Matt Painter’s comments speaks loudly and underscores an unfortunate reality of this particular tournament.
The Cinderellas have made it extremely hard to root for them this year and that sucks for the fans. Coaches have been dishonest and classless in victory.
VCU beat UNC
High Point beat Wisconsin
McNeese almost beat Vandy
Cal Baptist almost beat Kansas
Kennesaw St almost beat Gonzaga
Wright St almost beat Virginia
Furman almost beat UConn
USF almost beat Louisville
Siena almost beat Duke
Cinderella is alive & well in March.
Relax.
High Point University that had never won a tournament game beat a Wisconsin team with multiple Top 10 road wins and took an Arkansas team with multiple NBA players to the brink…
And you think these mid majors will never have a shot at a run again? Give me a break
The West region feels like Arizona can sleepwalk through it. I still don’t believe in Purdue.
The wildcard? Darius Acuff Jr. and the Hogs. I expect them to meet in the sweet 16.
Also, I can really see Gonzaga getting shocked early. They haven’t tickled me like they used too
Jake Davis after Illinois’ second OT loss to Wisconsin:
“It does suck to lose the same exact way. They're really good. I think we're really good. Out of 10 times I think we'd beat them seven, they just got the better of us in the past two games.”
@THEbadgermaniac Gard will have seniors Blackwell and Winter. He will have Janicki. He will have Rapp and AB. Doesn’t have to hit it as hard next year.
