The 2023 March Madness “Other Games” Thread

Yeah them losing really helps with the fan amount.

I hope the Orange represents well in NY

K State has made huge shots and I am no Kentucky fan, but the whistles have definitely benefited K state in the last few minutes.

I haven’t seen it that way. There was a bad call on KY but if they hadn’t called it he made the shot so it didn’t matter.

[DocVOLiday]

yay, down goes UK

 

[WillisWG]

KSU W

 

[TheVolsFrog]

Refs took their time blowing the whistle there...not that it matters at this point but I thought the time was gonna run off the clock lol

 

[Pepe_Silvia]

Poor poor kentucky...but at least they'll be going home with a tournament win this year.

 

[TrapVol]

Rupp Rafters has officially crashed. Lol

 

[TooLegit2Quit]

Good riddance to UK. KSU is going to be a tough out. Nowell is a piece.

 

[Madscientistvol]

When we’ve had the better of them they always throw the tourney in our faces. Well, they went home before us this year.

All the blue bloods are getting beat. Duke, Kansas, Kentucky, (UNC doesn’t even get in the the dance). Someone needs to beat UCLA next.

It's either your Night or it isn't. Eventually you gotta let someone else on the team shoot those 3s. Could have separated from K State if they had. But let them hang around until the other team hit the big shots

 

[JCP201]

So glad I don't have to hear the Oscar praise anymore.

 

[BreatheUT]

If Kentucky loses, it will be because they couldn't shoot the three--killed 'em. 3-19 from the three-line, last I checked.
Reeves = 0-9. Likely will cost them the game. Wallace is a stud.

Kansas State was just as bad.

 

[TheBigOne10]

Back to the coal mines son!!

 

[ReggieJohnsonFan]

Kansas State was just as bad.

But Kansas State nailed three straight highly difficult deep threes late in the game- that was the difference in the game.

 

[Zues1]

Seeing Cal lose is almost...almost as good as watching the Vols win.
Lol

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Kentucky didn't win the SEC and didn't get out of the first weekend, they'll hang their entire hat on "we beat TN twice!" lol

 

[BreatheUT]

Yeah they were about 75% late but they were like 1/15 before that.

Wonder if the “fire cal” stuff will boil up again? They haven’t exactly forgiven him for the early stuff this season.

They'll be a tough out no matter who they face in the next round. Something tells me it's gonna be a sparty. Wouldn't it be something if we have to face them for a trip to the final 4?

 

[omghulkhands]

Well, we really wanted Wallace, but he went to the dark side. Still, I like Nowell. Reminds me of ZZ. Alpha dawg.

Then you’ll love when Wallace transfers here next year

It will but it won't be realistic. I do wonder who will come back, and who will replace a generational college player like Tshiebwe.

That’s the best question. There’s been whispers of several guys moving on, especially with the way Cal and his supporters threw them under the bus with the “we will have the team next year with all these top recruits!”

 

[BreatheUT]

Well, we really wanted Wallace, but he went to the dark side. Still, I like Nowell. Reminds me of ZZ. Alpha dawg.

Then we had another top recruit to pull a Wallace again and go to UK when many thought we had him locked up.

Hopefully Wallace get to eat refreshments with his teammates while he watches us make a tourney run. Then he can wonder what might have been.
