Not sure who I'm going for - I see TTU as the underdog and I usually pull for the underdog unless it's my fave team playing - but I like the UVA coach, he comes across as a class act - I guess I'll pick who to root for as the game goes.
Good defense on both teams. Will not be a high scoring affair. Neither school has ever won it all. I'm still going with the boys from the Lone Star state.
UVA had a short bench and didn't get much from their bench - TTU looked fresher down the stretch and I thought they had the momentum and were gonna pull it out - Jerome for UVA missed a whole bunch of shots down the stretch, seems he may have been gassed.
I'm sitting in the hotel bar having a night cap before heading upstairs.... certainly the right call to bring the talent, she had a good time even though her team lost. We had a blast. If the weather is nice I might take her to the Masters on Saturday, if it is raining I'm gonna stay home. Of course I might better take a different girl, don't want her thinking I'm hooked lol.... Good night boys have fun
I will say this.... I will not go to a basketball game in a football stadium again.... I had good seats club level, not mid court but behind the UVA bench between free throw and end line and still had to squint to see
Daddillac--it is a pain. I lived in New Orleans when the Jazz played at the Superdome. You always felt as if the game was played inside some vast concrete hole four times to large for basketball. It's not just the distance to the court but also the sound bounces off the inside walls in a very weird way.
Boxing is even worse. I saw Muhammad Ali win back his title in the Dome as well. Next to ringside ( and back then I was way too poor) the seats all made you feel like you were a distance from the ring.

Both TTU & UVA are well-coached and don't make mistakes ro beat themselves - should be an interesting game

I like Tony Bennett and as a ACC guy I want Virginia to win but tonight Virginia was lucky and TTU kept their poise, I feel like TTU might have it.

I'm cheering for the Caviliers.
That means the smart money will be on Texas Tech.

No, smart money is on Virginia, its the favorite at sports books...online and in Vegas. But anything can happen, you can't underestimate Texas.

Missed most of the second game but I’d have to say Texas has to be the Cinderella team, should be a good game.

TT turns up the defense all game. They should win. But these are teenagers so who knows

Second time in two games Virgina has had the numbers on the court.......8 on 5 is hard to beat.

Is that a racist comment referring to penis size?

Pretty good game - not supa-exciting but well played - UVA got off to a lead and TTU got hot and closed the gap
