ONE. SHINING. MOMENT.

The play-in games are tonight. In the first game, Prairie View A&M leads Fairleigh Dickinson (Fairly Ridiculous) by two points with about 10 minutes to play.

Belmont plays temple in the second game.

Prairie View was ridiculous from three early but FDU is coming on. Now tied at 7:10.

Prairie View was ridiculous from three early but FDU is coming on. Now tied at 7:10.

I just turned it on, but FDU is playing well. This is a close game and should be a good finish. I may turn my back on temple in the Belmont Stakes.

PVA&M was kicking ass early, on the verge of routing them.

 

[BobPSU92]

On a side note, Prairie View's colors are royal blue and gold, and their mascot is the Panthers. Obviously pitt copied them.

 

[LionJim]

FDU has an Anthony Mason clone who kept them in the game and are now up 7 with 2:30 or so.

temple-Belmont about to start.

HOLY. SHIZZ.

 

[razpsu]

It’s march and I’m mad as hell psu didn’t make it in!!!!

 

[ILLINOISLION]

It’s march and I’m mad as hell psu didn’t make it in!!!!

PSU didn’t make it in? I’m shocked! Stunned! There were MORE than a handful of posters here last October and November putting up their children, their wives and yes, even their girlfriends, all but guaranteeing a finish in the upper half of the Big 2(12) standings and getting to the Big Dance floor. OMG, what happened?

Hell, the next thing you know someone will be trying to tell me my Jayhawks didn’t win the Big 12 for the first time in fifteen years!

 

[Relayer]

Temple-Belmont all tied up at 46. Entertaining game, both teams running up and down the court.

 

[royboy]

Belmont looked good. I think they have a great chance to beat Maryland.

Much much better than running back and forth across the court!

As a public service, here's the score: Belmont 81, Temple 70. Billy Bob from the Pony Express just now got off his horse and told me the score, only three hours after the game ended. Progress, no stopping it.

Was it a high horse?

Trojan. For safety.

Never felt right to me.

 

[LionJim]

Never felt right to me.

Use tongs. Maybe that would help.

 

[BobPSU92]

Use tongs. Maybe that would help.

Of course, you're right. How silly of me.

BASKETBALL.

[wlawn]

Love how Belmont plays, their Coach could of went to top 25 many times I bet but stayed with Belmont

 

[BobPSU92]

Much much better than running back and forth across the court!

Is that Chambers' problem? Too many east-west guys and not enough guys who can north and south?

 

[LionJim]

Another play-in, North Dakota SU beats NC Central by 4. NDSU terrific from three but will lose to Duke by 30. (NCCU had a big power forward who gave NDSU fits. Zion will have 35 if he plays 30 minutes.)

 

[Relayer]

St John's is awful. UNC Greensboro should be in this game. I get the feeling we might not see a Big East team in the sweet 16. Hope I'm wrong.

 

[Relayer]

Wow, Bobby Hurley looked like a crack head in that interview. Trying to get that first ASU tourney win in 10 years.

 

[LionJim]

St John's is awful. UNC Greensboro should be in this game. I get the feeling we might not see a Big East team in the sweet 16. Hope I'm wrong.

Yeah, St. John's is looking really bad. No character.

You could be right about the Big East, as Harvard beat Georgetown in the NIT.

 

[BobPSU92]

Final: Arizona State 74, St. John’s 65

 

[BobPSU92]

Several b1g teams play today. Notably, michigan state (still not burned down to the ground) plays Bradley and maryland (still not burned down to the ground) plays Belmont.

 

[LionJim]

I’ll be watching Yale-LSU. Some on this board saw a potential upset here.

I doubt it. This isn't a MATHS. contest.

 

[LionJim]

VERY. FUNNY. BOBPSU92.

 

[LionJim]

Louisville-Minnesota. Hey, UL’s Enoch, huge, really a force inside.

 

[LionJim]

Yale down 9-0 not three minutes in.

 

[BobPSU92]

Yale-lsu:

Yale fighting, but the difference in athleticism just leaps out at you.

I forgot that LSU’s coach is suspended. LSU is playing angry.
