West Virginia is acting like no one has ever figured out the soft spots in Boeheim’s 2-3 zone.

Hey Huggy, maybe check out YouTube at halftime.
Of the 12 coaches, Rush picked the one whose fans have the deepest passion, the longest memories, the greatest lung capacity and … did I mention deep passion?

Boeheim has to be the most overrated coach in NCAA history.

I think what we are seeing is that the defense in the PAC was a lot better then we knew. Now OSU might get run out of the gym in the second half but they are hitting guys in the mouth and not backing down. 5 teams sweet 16.......that needs to be our mantra. If that happened it would be talk of the media and tournament.

It will be the talk of media tomorrow, especially since so many big 10, big 12, and acc teams are gone. The highest rated major conferences are performing the worst.

I just realized that Oregon St. is the team that benefited from Arizona self-sanctioning in the PAC-12 tournament.

They would have been the 6 seed, Arizona the 5 seed. But since Arizona was out, they moved up to the 5 seed and with only 11 teams left that meant they got the same bye in the first round that the first four teams did.

That meant they only had to win 3 games instead of the 4 a typical 5 - 12 seed would have had to win and make the NCAA tourney.

If these announcers knew what the Pac 12 was like, they wouldn't be shocked by the Beavers making all these free throws. We get lots of practice in our conference. :lol:

Great game by the Beavers. Kept the faith when it looked like they were a step from the abyss. Know what will really piss you off. Go look at the NCAA site and they have the Beavers stats under the Ok ST side since the game began. FN NCAA can't even keep the score right on their own site. MF'rs.
