Wow that block was clean as ****
All ball
lol
That was clean but at that speed from that angle it's almost impossible for the ref to not call a foul
Cleanest block you've ever seen in your life.
My favorite sports weekend of the year
(well as long as UK makes it past this weekend, I am actually way too nervous for this weekend
I tried to make a longer post but it really doesn't require a longer post
If Calipari doesn't make a run with Reed Sheppard it is going to be real ugly around here
Reed Sheppard is Kentucky born and bred. He is freshman of the year over 4 recruits rated over him. You literally couldn't construct a more fan favorite UK player if you tried. I hate to use the word litera
Oh dear
Kansas cheating at basketball and getting away with it. News at 11.
All-time awful call.
And then wasn't Furphy standing out of bounds when that last pass was thrown to him? No way he reestablished himself inbounds.
7 points from KU’s bench
if i bet samford i would be ****ing livid right now
****ING LIVID I SAY
but yeah i didnt bet it so whatever lol refs
That was a pretty fun day 1 in my opinion.
wazzuu really pulled that one out of their a**. yay PAC-12 in their last hurrah!
also lol MWC as usual. all I've heard on the local radio here in MWCland is how the MWC has been "disrespected" with the seeding...seems like the selection committee got this one right.
-4.5, disgusting loss. It all was riding on last foul shot. Miss, meant nothing, meant everything. I know the kid did not give a sh*t. #10. F me.
HEH
So gross might save me a bunch of money, can't bear to look at lines. 20 point lead in second half. Spirit broken.

For real mtn west # 7 in NET, never had any team do anything in the tournament ever until SDST last year, gets 6 teams in more than they've ever got, twice as many as the Big East, and omg we got 10 seeds instead of 8 seeds
Timberlake for Kansas went to the Duke school of flopping with that decision to grab the rim after the block to flip himself onto his head. If he doesn't do that, then the official is far less likely to call the foul.
Few things are more tilting than sports streaming services that post game replays that cut off right after the game ends. Nevada down 3 with ball and last shot, but you can see replay has only 3 minutes left. You already know it's a miss. Is it really that hard to make every replay 3 hours and just add black screen at the end if you need to?
just seen the Samford block
that's criminal
smh

Agreed completely. I rarely watch games live and I've had to learn the skill of fast forwarding blindly so I don't see how much time is left. It's hard with basketball but almost impossible with tennis where it's 1 set all in a grand slam and you know based on the recording time whoever wins the 3rd set will win.
While we're on the topic, it's 2024; how do we not have the option to switch off the stupid ticker at the bottom of the screen (or in this case the scores of the other games at the top of the screen). I have to put a ****ing sheet over the top of my TV during march madness so I don't see the other scores. Also everyone has had smartphones for at least a decade now, we don't need this **** anymore!
