Dismal free throw shooting by Penn. We can always play "hack a quaker" if we get desperate
No need to do it all, devonte
Most people just throw stuff at the TV, but way to take it to the next level @BeddieKU23
quaker cheerleaders look exactly what I expected them to look like
Vick and Svi played well for about one minute each. Garrett was solid.
My bracket choice to pick OU over Duke didn't work out the way I planned
looked like he was shooting to me
Svi is slowly redeeming himself for those 35 layups he missed earlier
With that 10 points we spotted them, I figure we'll only win by 15 now instead of 25
@wissox I came here to get cheered up, and it was the wrong place to be!
ball bounces like it's over inflated
We're not having any problem getting to the rim
looked like svi was trying to throw it up for doke, but who knows
good job, graham. We're a turnover and a couple threes away from being on top.
It's good to get the cold shooting tournament game out of the way.
RELAX, guys.

If you are looking at just athletes independently of basketball, Vick and Cunliffe are generally thought to meet the elite athlete criteria.
Agree about both of those guys. Seeing those guys in person, they can fly. Vick floats like a bird, and Sam is an amped up freak of nature.
So only 8 teams in the tourney from states west of Kansas...highest seeds are 4. SDSU and Cal State Fullerton are the best two teams in California?
Why even have a West Regional?
AZ, Michigan, Villanova and KU in the F4.
Looks like only one of my brackets got added to the bucket group, so for me it's Michigan, AZ, Nova, KU, with Kansas defeating Michigan in the championship, overcoming a 14 point deficit in the final minute and a half.

@JayHawkFanToo I'm really looking at it from the distance travelled standpoint. We've had the obvious advantage. But again, don't let the facts ruin your narrative!
I'm not seeing an obvious advantage..
in 2000-2017 total miles:
KU: 6,348
Duke: 5,465
2,116 of Duke's miles were on one trip to Salt Lake City as a three seed in 2003. They played in their home state 9 times during that 17-year period and twice in Greenville SC.
I've honestly not really heard people complaining about KU getting shafted by location. Clearly we've had it good, but not Duke good.
@wissox I don't have a narrative in this. I was just curious about other teams and thought maybe you had a place to easily get the info.
Whether playing within a four hour drive in a beige midwest city vs. a 3 hour charter flight to a more exciting place is easier on the team is an interesting idea. We've had a nice situation for fan travel for sure, but I'm not convinced it's better than for any other team seeded 1-2 for the past couple decades.
Could you do this for Duke?
I did two brackets, which is not usually my style. Normally I go ALL IN on one big loser.
Can I haz a Ben Franklin at least?
Better be a Barbara Bush photo (bless her heart), or I'm out of here.
@kjayhawks if you moved to LFK you would be blinded by hopeless optimism
@Crimsonorblue22 I'm not sure if I could watch a game with both Tripper and Trae in it. LOL.
I'd like to see OU go on a nice two game run, beating Rhode Island and Duke, before Trae flames out. That would be funny as hell, considering they have no business being in the tourney.
Not so much of a dagger ultimately
Newman Dagger
Well, Devonte threw four into the stands yesterday, so it's not Lightfoot's problem
Nice block Silvio and finish on the other end. I like this guy
Bring on the purple goobers
going with five littles
Looked like it was going in Malik

Welcome back to planet Earth, Vick. Please stay a while.
noooo yessssss, VIck
silvio fouled Carrols arm with his face, I guess
should have some energy to push through the end now
12 and 14 Fran
Garrett makes it look easy
Doke who?
OSU running some time off the clock. Thanks!
Hard to complain too much about Silvio's play
Gaurds need to go under that screen. No way either mitch or silvio can do anything about those drives
I'm officially on the Marcus garrett fan bandwagon
