Althio many of the games were close for a half or even into the 2nd half, so far Gonzaga and Indiana are the only lower seeds to advance to the Sweet 16. Can Bucky buck the trend and be the 3rd? I say yes. F'um BUCKY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here's hoping......
Looking more spirited tonight.....so far
Good ball movement and clock usage
Missing a lot of shots early, come on, guys.
BK has to make that bunny
About time Koenig hits a shot, and does it twice for good measure.
Need to get Hayes going now
Northern Iowa up 10 on Texas A&M at the half.
Looking pretty good right now.....
Good hustle
These refs can kiss my ass
55 pushes off twice to get his shots and Xavier is totally out of control driving to the hoop
55 is a hack
Need to get Happ back in there
Officiating is horrible in this game
Ugly half by Bucky.
Xavier wanted to give us this game and we said, "No thanks"
Except for the one little stretch, a pretty lousy half shooting by the Badgers.
And Nigel.
Wake the fukk up.
down 3....I don't think that's to bad really. But you're right about Mr. Hayes. Yikes....he has got to get going here.
Showalter scoreless and the bench with only 4. Xavier bench has 8. Shades of last years championship game too; 10 fouls for Wisconsin, only 5 for Xavier.
A Charlie Thomas 3?
this crew is whistle happy.
You mean shades of getting screwed over by the refs? It's as bad if not worse than the Duke game
Refs are always against us
I'd like to see the offensive splits versus zone and versus man to man. Other than foul trouble, there is no reason for Xavier to play zone against the Badgers.
Awful call on Hill there.
HAPPPPPPPPPPP
Captain Obvious here - but it's clear Hayes struggles against bigger players. Not a good omen for his NBA chances.
What a BS call. They could call that screen on every play.
Flop.
Even the announcers are struggling to defend the officiating.
Christ. As someone said, this looks like the Duke game. Every borderline call is a foul.
Xavier has no one with 3 fouls.
Happ, Brown, Hayes all with at least 3.
Just can't get a score at this point.
This is about to get away from them. I never thought I'd say this before this year, but they need to bring Vitto Brown back. Iverson and Thomas playing with Showalter means a lot less shooting on the floor.
Say what you want but Bucky's biggest enemy was themselves.
Game over.
Nigel Hayes dogging it.
WOW what the heck just happened???
