Steptide Posted March 19, 2018 Posted March 19, 2018 Gotta hand it to those UMBC kids, they played hard and battled the whole game.
PromoTheRobot Posted March 19, 2018 Posted March 19, 2018 Man I wish UB could have played K-State. UMBC made only 3 field goals in the second half but was only down 3 late.

Mark Vader Posted March 19, 2018 Posted March 19, 2018 I have 2 brackets. One with Villanova winning it all. One with Michigan winning it all.

I thought they had a legit chance to win the whole thing this year. Couldn't hit the ocean from a boat. When the 3-pt shot is a big part of your offense and all of your shooters go cold, it's gonna be a long night. This wasn't a national championship team, though certainly it's disappointing they didn't get to next weekend. I'm gonna miss Berry and Pinson.

Same applied to UMBC. That game against K-State was theirs to take but they couldn't make a freaking bucket the entire second half. Edited March 19, 2018 by PromoTheRobot

But c'mon, the Spartans did themselves in as much as Syracuse did. 1

Bing Bong Posted March 19, 2018 Posted March 19, 2018 Bc zone forces players to shoot turn around jumpshots. College players can't shoot jumpshots. That's why you don't see the zone in the NBA. Boeheim just dares teams to play out of their comfort zone. Mich St. had never seen this defense.
