Day 1 games
- Thread starter the nail at the foul line
- Start date
Clemson allowed to just grab and hold now
If Gonzaga keeps it up, Georgia would end up as the most disappointing performance.
Already, the SEC is losing by against the spread by about 15 points. It will likely be more after the Georgia game. Underperformance so far. Maybe UT and/or Missouri will pick up the slack tonight.
Clark Kellogg picked Clemson to go to the Final Four
Wonder if the nerds can upset another sec team this year. Auburn getting a very manageable path to elite 8 if so. Creighton and Yale and mcneese aren't easy per say but i don't think auburn wants to see a and m again.
I bet he whistled the hell out of the S in Clemson
If we learned nothing from Kentucky/Oklahoma it is games are never over.
Lead down to 5 and he bricks the FT

Honesty, I wouldn’t get too wrapped up in that unless we see it happen with the teams that were favored to win. Texas was underdog versus Xavier. Georgia was underdog versus Gonzaga. Auburn won but didn’t cover the spread. Forget the conferences, I think the style is the thing to look at. These teams that play slow and through the post, the slug it out wrestling teams won’t do well in the tournament. The officiating is different for one thing. Also, I think that, in an environment like the NCAA Tournament the pressure is higher and it makes it even more likely for teams to become tense. The slog style can really cause you to become tense and panic if you start getting behind. The teams that want to spray and let it loose can play themselves into a rhythm faster than the slog teams. At least that’s how it feels to me
I’m good if Tennessee loses.
Man imagine if they just scored like 18 in the first half lol.
Free throws
And tackle defense has helped Clemson

Clemson waited too late to go to the full court press. That really changed the dynamic of the game, but coming back from 22 down in 7 minutes is pretty close to impossible.
Clemson all of a sudden couldn't miss from 3
McNeese holds on and wins by 2

Earthquake on East Coast according to USGS just now.
Epicenter appears to have been from two sites.
Graves of Billy Packer and Dean Smith.

They asked Wade what this win means and he said "It changes our university"
The fewest number of ACC teams in the field since 2013 and the #2 and #3 teams in the conference are out in the first half of the first day.
Makes you wonder, is Duke really that good?

Good thing UNC made it otherwise only 1 ACC team would be left
People on here keep hoping that's the case. I guess we will see what happens.
So 7 complete duds and 1 game that didn't really represent hiw mcneese dominated pretty much all game.
Sec needs to step it up. A and m and Missouri need to handle their business.
Arkansas we all hope loses for the most part but Kansas has the capability to get hot and beat half this boards hero Pitino and get more all time wins. Arkansas has no shot to beat st johns IMO. Fascinating matchip tonight and on Saturday in that pod.
Dook fans who saw them last lose to Clemson can't be feeling good.
I had a feeling McNeese State could make some noise. Held their own against a couple of SEC teams. Lost by 3 to Mississippi State and by 8 to Alabama on the road.
Really needing Wofford to play the game of their lives in about an hour too
Mark Few is currently tied with the most consecutive sweet 16 appearances (9) since the 64-team expansion. He has led Gonzaga to the NCAA Tournament in every one of his 25 season.
