since they beat UVA, I'm compelled to want them to win the title. anyway, is anyone sure exactly why they're a 5 seed? these guys are incredible. everyone scores from everywhere, they've got athleticism, they pass well, they play swarming defense. they're currently handing Ohio State its ass. got Greg Oden in foul trouble which I don't think anyone's done all year.

ohio state making a come back. still down 43-27.

DatZNasty · 03-22-2007, 10:03 PM

Greg Oden travels damn near every time he touches the ball

SsKSpurs21 · 03-22-2007, 10:03 PM

holy crap, Tennessee is no joke!

I didn't even know they existed during the regular season. is that why they were so underseeded? I'm a UVA and Tech fan and I knew right away Tenn was better than both teams. and they were all 4-5 seeds.

Nah, it's because their best scorer (Chris Lofton) got injured midway through the year and they struggled a little. Once he returned, the team started ballin' again, as you can see now.

osu is comin back.

DatZNasty · 03-22-2007, 10:37 PM

Lofton is just throwing **** up right now. Who does he think he is, Kobe?

fatboy11 · 03-22-2007, 10:38 PM

Mike Conley is fu*king good.

LiL Stevie · 03-22-2007, 10:39 PM

Yeah Lofton has been killing possessions in the 2nd half for Tennessee. Just launching em up

I want OSU to win for my brackets, but watch Oden on the defensive end. Even though he's got 3 fouls, he gets away with a lotta sh*t, cat pushes everybody he's guarding and even those he doesn't.

And Tenn should just run isos for Smith. OSU needs to do their drive and kick thing.

for those watching the game, wtf is up with oden. Are they doubling the sh&t out of him or something?

SoCalMike · 03-22-2007, 10:43 PM

Dang, this game is not being shown in Southern Cali...

UCLA is up 48-39 with 7:18 left over PITT.

allball · 03-22-2007, 10:44 PM

nah man. they're decent but osu's defense in the first half was awful.
