NCAA Tournament: Day One - Afternoon Session

Finally!
It's here!
The NCAA Tournament is kicking off, at long last, this morning. In only a little over an hour, actually. I'm so pumped. Really, it's probably a good thing that Kansas doesn't play today. That way we can coax ourselves into March Madness, getting all excited and pumped up and stuff, before going all nervous and praying that we can just get by North Dakota State.
So, that's where we are. I'll be here all day long (thanks mom and dad!), so come on in and join me.This is your open game thread for the morning session. Post any-and-all comments here. You know the drill by now.
There will be another thread for the night session. Everyone knows where the break is, yes?

Whistle go woooo
Just to let you guys know, my bracket pool picks are the ones I made without any thought given to it and immediately after the brackets were put up. I just wanted to throw that disclaimer out there so when I finish in last, I can point to this comment.
Oh my GOD I’m pumped for basketball. Ain’t nothin’ like a little March Madness to put some pep in yo step.
I am Jack's unbridled optimism.

My picks always end up like that...
even if I wait a few days…I fill that thing out in about 2 minutes and go with my gut…and what I want to happen a little bit.

Yeah
I think everyone is trying so hard to find the sleepers that they over-analyze shit to death. Like KU losing to NDSU. I seriously hope SFA stuns Syracuse, just to shut people up.

Agreed.
With three and-a-half days between when the brackets come out and when the actual games start, and nothing else to do, people just stare-and-stare-and-stare at them and say random things.
Over-analyzation always kills me, and I did it again this year. Ah, well.

Ah man.
It’s awesome, awesome stuff. I’m exhausted, though, so I’m probably just going to cut half the trip and finish it in April. Lack of worry about when I’m driving where next means I can just cut loose the next few days.

Did you ever make it through Kansas?

Naaah.
I wanted to wait to go through Kansas. I did hit up Memphis for some parties, but I was surprised at how weak they were. A good time, but I guess I was expecting something better, so I came back to Knoxville. The friends place I’m staying at happens to be right next door to UT’s new RBs coach Eddie Gran. Pretty interesting guy. He just moved in yesterday and felt the need to tell us his life story.

Skip Bayless is such a f'n idiot
they were asking what is the best sports day of the year….no one said NCAA tournament so they’re are all kind of morons, Wayne said Super Bowl, I can handle that….But Skip said The Masters…..what a joke.

From the comments at Deadspin, supposedly from NDSU's coach. Is this a legit quote?
“You look at this matchup, I don’t see how you don’t go North Dakota State right away. I’m worried about us overlooking Kansas. That is what I really stay up all night worrying about.”

Obviously, it was said tongue-in-cheek, but he did say it. On the Dan Patrick Show, IIRC.

Because Cal State Northridge is in the Los Angeles city limits, and I’m in the LA media market, I get CSN-Memphis.
So, that’ll be fun. I have Mega March Madness, though, so I get to pick whatever I want.

I looked at every one of their matchups and never felt like they were outmatched. With the exception of a potential UNC matchup, but I think Johnny Flynn takes it right at Lawson, because Lawson can’t defend even when healthy. Onuaku will pwn Teabag, too.

So, only one difference there, between Zaga and Cuse. I just think Lawson’s toe is going to flare up far too much for the Tar Heels to really make a run.

This is why you always watch the 1/16s, 2/15s at first...
until it becomes a blowout.
Because when you’re watching it, even a game like this where Northridge is losing, you feel like something special could happen.
8/9 games bore me beyond belief, usually. No underdog to root your ass off for.

Big West
Doesn’t seem like a 15 seed level conference. They’ve got legitimate size, athleticism, and skill on the perimeter. Seem to do a good job recruiting internationally. I remember seeing Pacific in person a couple times at the tournament, and they always were really competitive.

This year was a down year, top-end wise.
The Big West had like 5 legitimate NCAA contenders, and they all beat each other up. So, all of their resumes look much worse.
But you’re right, there are some really solid teams out here. Long Beach State, Pacific, CS-Northridge and UC-Riverside (led by Jimmy Woolridge, BTW, K-State’s old coach) are all solid.

It is.
Both statistically (best D by far this year) and by the eye-test (best D by far, IMO, this year).
And yet, today, they are giving up open shot after open shot to Northridge.
It has to be a motivation-type thing, where they just weren’t “up” for CSN, the 15-seed.
I’d imagine they’ll start to play harder now that they legitimately might lose, but man.

He can hit.
Baseballs and parked cars.
He can’t go on being a catcher at the next level. And I doubt he can play outfield. So he will have to be a first basemen.
As far as college goes, he might be all-conference this year. So yes, he is the real deal at the plate.

Do you see him

I am Jack's unbridled optimism.
by SlamDunkTheFunk on Mar 19, 2009 1:36 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
I've never seen him play anywhere but catcher,
so I really don’t know if he can play first or outfield.
He was draft eligable last year and was passed over. Although that could be for a lot of reasons so I shouldn’t speculate.
His OPS over the last thee years
Freshman .738
Sophomore .858
Junior .817
Those number would make him a good prospect if he could stick at catcher. I kinda doubt he can do that. We’ll see. He has worked hard the last two years improving his throwing and defense. Maybe he can pull it off.

I'm opposite on the Big 10.
Sure, their games suck, and are boring to watch. But, that slow, methodical, milk-it style of play, I think lends well to the tournament. You go up against a team that isn’t used to that, and you can really pick ‘em apart. Purdue is looking great already. I have them in the Sweet 16. I’m high on Big 10 teams in the tourney, but totally anti Big 10 vs. Big 10 in conference play.

I love how predictable Roy Williams teams are
Come into the tournament as a favorite. Blow the crap out of an overmatched 16 seed. Immediately become the Greatest Team Ever. Suddenly face actual competition in round 2, and squeak out a win. Sometime in the next couple of rounds, face a team that plays defense and doesn’t beat itself on offense, and presto! Roy ends up in tears in the locker room.
Rinse, wash, repeat.

[Comment From KCsince88]
If Trey Hillman actually gives Mike Jacobs a chance against LHP this year, he can actually do something, right? I mean, he only has 300-some AB’s against LHP in his career. They should stop assuming just because he is a lefty bopper.
I agree that it does take some time to establish whether a guy can hit lefties or not. Not sure how he did in the minors offhand. But really they gotta get that guy away from 1B, he is a butcher. Or at least was last year.

Yeah, I thought that was pretty funny.
I tend to agree about Jacobs playing 1B. I’d rather see 22 year old Billy Butler play 1B, and work on it in game situations all year, than the older Jacobs, who is really the PERFECT AL DH guy.

I agree.
I just hate all of that talk by saying “easy paths”.
Bottom line is that everyone has to win 6 games in a row. Sure, some regions are easier than others. Sometimes a helluva lot easier.
But the best team nearly always wins.
If Memphis wins it all, they will have deserved it. Even if they narrowly edge Utah State in the Sweet 16 and Mississippi State in the Elite Eight and USC in the Final Four.

Wanna bet? ;)
Seriously, though, I’m in love with Dexter Pittman. Just love him.
And Damion James is ridiculous. I think Texas makes a deep run. I had them going to the Elite Eight, but dropped them down to the Sweet 16, losing to Villanova.

I had Butler.
Otherwsie, though, I’m right with ya.

I guess that makes me 3 for 4.

I did.
I almost decided to take them over OU, too, but couldn’t quite pull the trigger on that one.

I struggled with Michigan-Clemson
soooo much.
I ended up going with Clemson. It was incredibly close, though.

And my bracket barely survives
for the second time today.
First Memphis, then Purdue. My two Elite Eight participants in the West both almost lost, but pulled it out in the end.

What's funny
is that the score, at one point, was:
Connecticut 17 Chattanooga 15.
It’s now 63-20.

Eh, not bad.
That should make Calhoun feel a lil’ better….

I don't et how Maryland is this close.
I can’t stand the Terps. And they aren’t even that good.
by rockchalk on Mar 19, 2009 3:37 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
they're just so unbelievably up and down
either this team is really talented and Gary Williams should be fired or they really suck and Williams is pushing all the right buttons just to milk all he can outta them

That was one of the worst foul calls I've ever seen.
Guttierez was just running alongside Vasquez and they blew the whistle.

Just got the greatest omen ever!!
I was sending a message on FB to a friend, and it made me fill out a Captcha thing. It never, ever does that on facebook. Guess the last 2 letters in the thing…

Wow.
I obviously completely overestimated the Bears.
They are playing like dog shit.
This is terrible.

BYU, Cal…who you got tonight RC :D
Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.

Not bad against
a radford team that had lost 8 out of 9 games at one point in the season. Its one thing to have small conference teams in the touney, its quite another to have BAD conference teams. I think all these podunk schools should have to battle it out for the right to the 14-16 seeds.

So, a terrible start thus far for me.
4 out of 7.
Oh, well. The winner is decided in the Final Four.
Go Zags!

IS THERE ANY BIGGER...

On KCTV5 News
they said that there are ALOT of KU and MU fans there at the Sprint Center today. They said it’s about half KU/MU, then the rest is split between Memphis and OU.

Well,
looks like you guys had a great afternoon. My internets blew up, but I should be around for the evening session. I know you guys missed my wit.
If you were thinking, you wouldn't have thought that.
