***Official Men's NCAA Tournament Discussion Thread***

I respect the hell out if what has been built as program up in Creighton, but this was an absolute egg laying job tonight. To have puke in a world of sh#t in front court foul trouble and not doing crap to exploit that is insane. The softness of the team was shown and honestly this game should be more than enough to show little Mac has plenty to work on in regards to his strength rebounding and defense. I know all these things weren't his strength, but if he comes back and puts up his numbers next year in a conference that will beat on him, he will only move up in the eyes of scouts.

f'ing puke. I hate puke. I blame Bobby Hurley . f#*k puke.

+1 for blaming Bobby Hurley.

 
Creighton did play soft tonight amd most teams don't get the opportunity they got in foul trouble. There wasnt much help for Doug tonight. Creighton would have had a player or two that could have gotten into the lane and createdeasy buckets, particularly when 3s aren't falling, things would have been different. Great season for CU but Coach McDermott needs to up his recruiting a bit. The players should hold their heads up.

 
The preseason hype, sweet 16 hopes at a minimum, talk of elite 8 or better, sniffing the top 10 early in the season.......DONE. You had your chance Jays and you blew it. Don't cry about the seeding, you blew that with that 3 game skid in the Valley. It was still a good season but this was the chance to actually make a splash and you didn't do it. Enjoy fighting for your life getting to .500 in the Big East. The days of only 3-5 conferences loses are now over.

 
Creighton guard play lost this game. Not the officials.

Other than Doug, they were 1-15 from 3. Also let Rasheed go off.

Gibbs, Manigat, and Chapman got abused.

 
I'll say it. I'm all over the Florida gulf coast bandwagon. They easily match up with the Gators and may be deeper. Would not be shocked one iota if they get another win in this run.

The B1G teams all get in as well.

Louisville, the U, and lets see LaSalle move on as well.

I particularly like the "Field" choice as that is exactly one team - Florida Gulf Coast

After that, I probably like Ohio St. or Duke at 8/1. Not that they have the best chance to win but I might throw a little money at either for 8/1 odds.
