Go Rowdy!
Life before the internet: I was having trouble with my eyes and no eye Dr. was giving me a satisfactory answer. So I snuck into the Wright State medical library to try to find out what was going on (which I did).
So I'll always have a soft spot for the Wright State Raiders.
Yes, he was a Viking. This was in 1990. I hadn't kept up with the change.
A wolf?? Eh.
(Syneresis, BTW. Not that uncommon.)

Not even close to a foul. The other offensive call on him was a block too, though that was a tougher call for the ref. I agree he's gotten away with a couple push offs otherwise.
OU is pretty awful outside of Young. They don't defend or rebound.

Best time of the year
The NCAA tournament, St Patricks Day parties, the coming of spring . . .
It's always an exciting weekend with lots going on.

THAT was worth saying twice, Dog!
Oops!
Here is a picture of the Bee-Line for your troubles:
What are thoughts on potential Xavier-Gonzaga matchup ?
That I will care a WHOLE LOT MORE if it determines who we play next!!!!!!!
That being said, I took Zag to win that in my bracket
My wife is not a fan of this time of the year because I basically immerse myself in basketball for three weeks and do admittedly little else of note around the house. I do post the estimated breaks between matchups and try to fit small chores into those, but even walking the dog is only done at certain times for three weeks.
She may eventually read this comment, for I have let her shadow mod in the past, although she has not had the courage to pretend to be me in the Mod Sticky yet.
OU and Rhode Island all tied up.
good opener.
has to be a "technical difficulties" situation. I hope they are not making that their legit actual camera angle.
game?
No, the other pod is Kansas/Penn/SetonHall/NCState, right?
I don't mind it, you can see the court better.
I just don't get it. Trae Young turns it over for the 5th time trying to split two defenders on fast break. CBS immediately proceeds with "but he's locked in with 6 assists."
EDIT: And while typing this post he turns it over AGAIN to give up a backbreaking 3.
How does RI not end it there!?
Just let RI win, already! I took them in my bracket, anyway... And now I'm watching the stream at work. Life is okay!
Not sure how that was a foul...
The Quakers don't look intimidated.
That little denial under the basket by R.I. on defense could be the play of the game.
Someone finally hit a three! Not impressed by the shooters in this game, in the few minutes that I've been watching...
Hey Kruger! My son tells me that your offense stinks!
If RI scores here, and goes up by 4 or 5, the game is over. Not impressed with OU's offense...
