Post thoughts here, or don't.

If someone has time, can they at least make a post in this thread so I don't feel sad: http://score670.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=101&t=85837

The best part about not making the tournament is the 0% chance of embarrassing yourself with a double digit ass kicking on national TV.

Hoo-hoo-hoosiers!

Extend Crean!

I'm normally pretty high on Ohio State but I absolutely hate the team they have this year. Charles Barkley loves them though.

Dayton's association with that walking tanned colon Mark Giangreco is enough for their university to have my eternal enmity.

Is it true that OSU wont schedule Dayton because of the potential embarrassment of a loss? If so, even more reason to root for Dayton in this one.

That goes on a lot in college, Arkansas won't schedule Arkansas St. for the same reason.

I'd say it is unlikely. It's more likely they won't play at Dayton but that is pretty common when you have a big school like Ohio State.

Always a great reason to root for the smaller school in these matchups then.

Dayton outplayed the Bucks in the fIrst half. I would love to see the Flyers upset OS.

Yup. Combined with the Irish Flu from last night, I didn't stand a chance.

Dayton struggling to get good looks now, looks like it's slipping away. Still only a 1 point game though.

This is at least the second year (and possibly the third) where I haven't filled out a bracket...and it's making watching these games a hell of a lot more entertaining...can root for the underdog in most every case without it destroying my chance to win some cash...

Wisconsin just decided they had enough, an ass whoopin has commenced.

The only thing better than seeing Aaron Craft choke in the tournament would be if he played for Duke.

Colorado with a grand total off 5 points in the first 10 minutes of play. I wonder what the record is for the least number of points scored in the first half of a tournament game?

If someone could just make 7 clones of Raftery and Lundquist so they can call every game that would be great...

Yes, they're great but I miss Gus screaming & yelling at everything.

But that's about the only time Gus does anything for me...at the end of the game when he sounds like a teenager having sex for the first time.

Raftery cracks me up at least three or four times a game..."and the kiss!!!"... :lol:

Dayton just got bailed out, guard slipped and fell and they called a foul. Dayton's half court offense is horrendous.

And of course he makes back to back plays to give them the lead. I should just shut up.

Dayton is in trouble.
