MARCH MADNESS

[-VT-]

Well, I am still shocked that the game turned out the way it did...
Maybe all that homecourt advantage and those blowouts had UNC a lil' over confident? They didn't show up to play until it was too late....UNC had a great season...they'll be back, that's for sure

Good luck all, 4 number ones should be fun not looking forward to going against Roy and the heels though.

Congrats ahssensi & Good luck in the Finals....should be a great matchup....Kansas will be our toughest opponent to date...

 

[amoS]

damn my heels got it handed to em tonite ! oh well congrats KU and Memphis....should be a good game ..........Peace

 

[ahssensi]

Wow KU about run out of gas after the the first part of the game but good thing for a second wind. Props for UNC for staying with it. KU better keep their head in the game against Memphis or it gonna be a long game.

aaaaaaaaarrrrrrGGGGGGGGGGGhhh, mother flubbin dagnabit, that game sucked,geeeeze, nothing i can say but kansas played a hell of a game and we started off like shit, i knew we had a come back in us but i didnt see roy step up and coach like he can. not calling timeouts and substituting at crucial points in the second half when lawson and tyler needed to be in the game no matter how winded they were. adreniline kicks in in the final four. VT talk yo shit out west please,i will be pulling for memphis now. its a sad day in the Tarheel nation. i thought this was our year.

I feel your pain, bagseed77....yea, really...what was Roy doing? not calling timeout??? Certainly gotta give KU credit...they look unstoppable...I'm worried about playing Kansas 'cause they match up with us physically....thanks for rooting for us...can't take anything from KU though
Ku looked unbeatable...they looked strong....how the hell did KU lose any games?


CDR straight up posterized Kevin Love!!! That was the dunk of the Final Four...
Kevin Love will get MANHANDLED in the NBA...Dorsey had 15 rebounds, lol

And Darrin Collison's Ethiopan lookin' ass got used!!

 

[strain_searcher]

UCLA had a great year!

 

[-VT-]

Kansas looks unstoppable...we'll have to play the best we can possibly play to even have a chance....we cannot have a bad game and expect to get by like we did against UCLA

UCLA had a great year!

They did ...don't want to minimize our victory...we beat a GREAT team....making the Final Four 3 years in a row is quite an accomplishment for UCLA
Kevin Love is a phenomenal college Pac-10 player...

been wearing my carolina gear all day...

fuck the fair weather fan bullshit.. stick with my team through thick & thin...

watch out for 'em next year

 

[ahssensi]

"Ku looked unbeatable...they looked strong....how the hell did KU lose any games?"

Hey VT they lost to Kansas State at K-state, Texas at Texas and another Big 12 team I forgot which one all within 3 weeks or so and They played like they did in the middle of the UNC game not focused. Then they manhandled K-state an haven't looked back since. I worry about Memphis for they same reason you worry about KU. We will definitely have to play our best to win.

Good luck to you, should be a good game either way.

 

[bagseed77]

i feel you rudolf, i always sport my colors, although i did by a black tarheel hat back in 01 when we had matt dummy daughtry. carolina has been my team since before i could walk. i did get to spend some quality time with phil ford too, 28 days to be exact, if you get my drift. anonymity. MJ signed my '82 blue soda can and my damn girlfriend threw it away. bitch.the Heels will be back, so all you suckers be ready next year. GO TIGERS !!!!

 

[buckeye-leaf]

its gonna be a good championship tonight! ill take kansas by at least 10....

 

[Pinball Wizard]

Go Tigers...

 

[-VT-]

Congrats Jayhawks

Congrats Jayhawks

They were just too strong...and we missed key freethrows...

What a shot by Chalmers....

Words cannot express the sadness I am feeling...been a good run...

KU deserves the championship...

Thanks for the thread bagseed77...see you guys next year

 

[Orangecrush]

I can't believe Memphis blew it. So many missed free throws that would have won this game for them. GG Kansas

 

[trichosaurus]

Huge letdown for the Memphis faithful. Memphis was the better team for 37 minutes but just couldnt close it out. Good luck next year, youll lose Rose but will probably pick up Tyreke Evans.

 

[ahssensi]

Wow what a great game lotsa heart on both teams great coaching. Im so pumped! VT you don't have nothing to hang your head we played our best game and still almost lost it. What a last second shot. Then we had the momemtum. Best final in a long time. Wow memphis has some athletes I can't believe we won.

 

[o.gkushowns]

duuude, that last shot by that mario dude was insane. congrats kansas

Thanks ahssensi, you're a class act...as is your team and most of the KU fans on the boards "abroad" (other sites....ESPN/CBS)....enjoy the championship....very deserving team

Calipari is somethin', lol...
...he just LIED in the post game press conference....my dad was totally pissed that we didn't foul that game tying possesion....up by three....only a 3 pointer hurts us....we should have fouled

now, on one hand Calipari "takes the blame" by saying he "wish he could have done something" (post game comments)...well, how about making sure our kids knew to foul????? Instead, we let them jack up a 3 (amazing shot....not a luicky shot cause he had good form and a nice follow through)....Calipari says he told them to foul...and says we did foul, but it wasn't called...NOT TRUE...ESPN exposed his lie....our kids didn't even try to foul (because their coach never told them to!)...and had plenty of time and opportunity to do so...Calipari's something...great recruiter though...and we'll be loading up during the oiffseason.....just hope Tyreke Evans can hit free throws, lol
Anyways, it was a great game...most exciting of the tourney...and KU just had the better team tonight....
Yea the missed freethrows hurt...but that turnover that led to a KU basket hurt....capped off by poor game management at the end of regulation

But I still believe in Coach Cal...and we have some stellar future NBA stars coming in....athletic kids like the style of our offense....

Gonna be a long offseason...especially being a Tiger college football fan, SF Giant baseball, and Memphis Grizzlie fan...I prolly won't have much to cheer about til next year, lol

peace guys
