If we can beat MSU we can beat LSU.
It's been 32 years since one of MN's four major sports teams has been to the Championship/Superbowl.
Every single year is failure until we win one. 4 teams, 32 years. That's roughly 128 consecutive failed seasons.

I hate Iowa and spazzy Fran with his lady glasses, but big credit to them from taking a 25-point deficit and cutting it to 1.

Increable comeback from Iowa. Just didn’t have enough at the end. Sure wish they would have called a travel prior to kickout for that late three in overtime but oh well. Iowa got run out of the gym in the first half and showed some guts in the second half.

Would love to see Duke go down here. Zion is ball hogging here.


Zion needs to get in a weight room. Too soft in the middle imo. Kid is going to come to the NBA and not be able to bully.

Tacko made a huge impact on that game, as did Dawkins. That kid was very tough.

The play where they had UCF had that 2 on 1 and lost it going up killed them.

I hope Duke gets knocked out of this thing.

Only one Cinderella this year. Oregon. Other than them, the worst seed is a 5, Auburn. It should make for a really good Sweet Sixteen.

Duke barely escaped. :o

Oregon as a 12 was stupid. That team took care of business for a month leading into the tournament. Probably should have been like a 5 or 6 seed.

They had to win their conference tournament to even get in the NCAA tournament, no way they were a 5 or 6.

A 12 was stupid after what they accomplished going into the tournament. Of course you can't ignore the season as a whole, which is why they were placed so low, but when they bum rushed their way into the tournament, it was clear they were playing more like a 5 or 6 seed, which is what I was trying to get at. Their NCAA tournament run was not a surprise at all.

These games have been rather horrible.


Let's go Tech. Knock Duke out!

I like Coach K and I normally don't mind Duke but I couldn't stand Grayson Allen and I can stand the team they have now.

This Zion kid has future "Domestic Assault" written all over him.

Does he fit in todays NBA? Kid can't shoot. He gets by bullying. Won't be able to do that in the NBA.

Can't stand this Jones kid either.

Let's go Tech!

Zion with the huge block. Stands there and flexes for the fans. Meanwhile Tech gets the ball back and the play is still going.
