UConn men's basketball team drops their second straight loss 73-72 to unranked Colorado. Their first loss was against undefeated Memphis in OT 99-97.

#6 Houston leading #9 Alabama leading the game 36-34. What a close game.

Ex-FSU players sue coach over $250K NIL promise

Six former FSU basketball players have sued coach Leonard Hamilton, alleging he failed on a promise to get each of them $250,000 in NIL compensation.

What are the odds that theyre eventually gonna treat this NIL thing like actual contracts? If you boycott games and quit schools, you dont get paid.

#21 Ole Miss upsets #5 Alabama 74-64.

Offensively, what a horrendous game for the Tide. Ole Miss' defense was a major factor in that game.

GAME TIME between #7 Alabama vs. #1 Auburn!!!

Bama really needs to bounce back after suffering back-to-back losses against Tennessee and Florida. They really need a W.

 

[Wolverine]

Fuck yeah! Alabama won in overtime 93-91, avoiding a three-game losing streak! It's strength of Bama's schedule lately has been absolutely stressful. In seven straight games, they fought six SEC teams that are ranked in the Top 25 (Auburn twice). A huge victory for the Tide to fight for a #1 seed in the NCAA tournament.

ROLL TIDE ROLL~!!!

Sorry that I haven't posted anything men's or women's basketball-related but here it goes.

The Elite 8 has been set after two days of Sweet Sixteen games:

#3 Texas Tech vs. #1 Florida
#2 Alabama vs. #1 Duke
#2 Tennessee vs. #1 Houston
#2 Michigan State vs. #1 Auburn

I seriously hope Bama can pull off a huge victory against 1 seed Duke in tonight's game. As long as they can nail three-pointers, just like they did against BYU (25 threes which is an NCAA Tournament record) and play defense, they could pull it off.

For the first time since 2014, the 1 seed Florida's heading back to the Final Four defeating 3 seed Texas Tech 84-79.

For the first time since 2014, the 1 seed Florida's heading back to the Final Four defeating 3 seed Texas Tech 84-79.

Sweated my way allll the way through that one.

Bama's offense is playing like shit.

They are 7 for 25 in three-point shots. What gives?

 

[Wolverine]

Welp, Bama couldn't manage to hold on late in the second half as they get blown out by Duke 85-65.

What an embarrassing game when it came to three-point shooting. They were the opposite from how they played against BYU. That and a lack of defense played a factor in Bama's loss in the Elite Eight. Better luck next time Tide.

All 4 seeds are set for the Final Four: Auburn, Duke, Florida and Houston.
