Fuck upsets let the best teams play

Let's just have the major conference champs playing best of seven series, so the "best team" can win.

Go Gonzaga

 

[Zem]

you mean after that obvious offensive charge?

The Free Shoes guy had to keep moving left, after the X player leaped forward, to be in the way of the X player.

The only 3 minutes of X b-ball I've seen this year ends as monumental choke.

You do realize you should've been rooting for Gonzaga last night, right? They won their conference. They were the higher seed. They're the "best team", so why were you rooting for an upset?

Once upon a time I was at Rupp Arena when X was *this close* to knocking out a #1 seeded OSU team in the second round. Only fitting that they get knocked out by a 9 seed when they have their first ever #1. Lol.

Ot Elmore looks like the "before" photo in commercials for both hair transplants and sketch weight loss pills yet he's getting minutes in the second round of the NCAA tournament.

Macura's 3rd and 4th were awful calls. His 5th was stupidity in the midst of a full meltdown.

Low key storyline to the early rounds of the tourney every year is the petty refs from lower conferences calling crap fouls because you have too many games for the top refs to call. This is why ideally you should have a reliable bench, as you will invariably need those guys to play important minutes at some point in the tourney if you are going to make an F4.
