I saw Tyger say “no fouls” in the huddle so I guess that was the plan.

I thought UCLA was done after they fucked up the end of regulation. Nice job taking control in OT.

3 Pac teams in the Elite 8. Wow.

Congrats to Coach Cronin and the Bruins. Job well done. Cronin still showing Miller how it's done by not fading in the clutch. Hope the Bruins make the Final Four; something else Miller will have to chew on before he gets fired. This would mean UCLA would have been in the Final Four 4 times since UA last went decades ago. Just thought I'd put a little honest perspective on things.

Such a bad match up for the ducks which is to baD only because I wish we could have all four teams playing to go to the FF.

Great gutty win by the Bruins. Now to take down Michigan which might be to much to ask for

5 teams seeded 1,2 or 3

Plus

3 PAC schools

Eh, we should have won at home vs Oregon, but a bad finish stopped that. We had last second losses to them in OT and double OT last year.

It sucks being 0-4 out of those games, but we were seconds from 3-1. It's probably me being overly emotional, but the Oregon L at home was my last McKale game pre-Covid and we should have won despite Pritchard turning into Steph Curry.

Oh well, que sera, sera.

As we know it’s about match ups. Those two forwards on the Beavs really excelled vs the other teams they played. Houston has neutralized those two and switched the advantage in other area to the cougars

1-3-1 causing Houston all kinds of issues though. This team believes and we might just see an epic comeback. I can’t imagine what the fans of Oregon St are feeling
