MSU has had enough. Foulland and Bucknell being pushed around now, losing their cool a bit. Surprised it was close for as long as it was. HC would get destroyed.
Maybe someday a freaking 25 win team from the PL will again get a higher seed than 14 and actually have a chance to win a game. PL zero credibility.

Izzo complains that the game was just too physical. Absolutely hilarious.

Did Coach Izzo just say Bucknell was allowed to be too physical?

Maybe someday a freaking 25 win team from the PL will again get a higher seed than 14 and actually have a chance to win a game. PL zero credibility. Doubtful on the PL part, the league is arguably going the opposite direction from about 5 years ago. KenPom Conference Ratings: 2009: 27 2010: 27 2011: 23 2012: 23 2013: 17 2014: 21 2015: 23 2016: 27 2017: 23 2018: 27 There is a definite ceiling on the potential of a league with an academic index, hopefully the PL's ceiling becomes more like the Ivy's though but not a lot evidence to support that happening yet.

UMBC leading Virginia midway through the first half.

21-21 at the half. Horrible last possession by Virginia with 6-5 Ty Jerome dribble-farting around the perimeter, while being guarded by 5-7 KJ Maura, then heaving up a 30-foot brick. This is the best team in the country?

This is the best team in the country? De'Andre Hunter was a big loss for them. FiveThirtyEight adjusted their model a good deal after the news that he fractured his hand. He was their most likely NBA prospect.

Virginia looks AWFUL. Little Maura blows past defender and through a wide-open lane for an easy layup, 29-22.

UMBC, 35-24. Virginia heaving air-ball threes, missing FTs, turning it over, being outrebounded at both ends, fouling three-point shooters, 0 assists . . . .

Wow. Was planning to go to bed as my son has an 8:00 basketball game but might need to stay for the end of this one. UMBC up 11 at the under 16 timeout and going to the line for three shots.

Virginia has not trailed this much all season.
UMBC win, would be a big win for college basketball and all the people who said a one will never loose to a 16.

It appeared to me those refs made some really suspect calls against Bucknell. The Thomas technical for his fifth foul and a couple of other calls especially come to mind. The final score was a very respectable 82 to 78. With just a few minutes left, MSU may have let up on defense and/or Bucknell got hot from 3-point range. Too bad for the Bison they didn’t get hot until the game was just about out of reach and the refs had already done their damage.

Problem was BU kept feeding Nana who could do nothing. They should have been heaving 3s much sooner, turns out they couldn't miss

UMBC, 45-29, under 12. Retrievers no longer relying on threes, driving baseline and through the key for easy hoops. Cavalier defense looks like it's on 'ludes

Virginia down by 16..under 12.
They've given up 24 points in 8 minutes. Can you imagine the outrage on this board if Holy Cross was losing to UMBC by 16?

this is absolutely surreal having grown up in umbc’s division II backyard and they’re now on the verge of potentially making history!
