March 19, 200619 yr comment_6149 The big difference in the FT thing is that Calipari probobly has them practice a ton during the season. This time of year there is no more practice until the weekend is over.
March 20, 200619 yr Author comment_6152 Now Memphis plays the #13 thanks to them beating Pitt. Ss long as we play DECENTLY hard, we would win that and then only have 1 tough opponent to beat to get to Final Four. It would be UCLA or Gonzaga. But as has been shown, any team could win. So we NEED to not overlook Bradley.
March 20, 200619 yr Author comment_6165 I am getting so sick of this nonsense. All 3 espn people on college gameday said memphis will lose to UCLA in elite 8. Right after they were saying that memphis and florida have been the most impressive teams the first weekend! And one of them said UCLA will win "no doubt about it" or something like that. Maybe we will or maybe we won't, but what IDIOTS to pretend they know! The same people who did NOT pick these other teams to make it this far and who said kentucky had "no shot" against UCONN then they nearly lost. And the IDIOTS want UCONN to win so bad nothing wavers them. They freakin actually had the idiocy to say "uconn will win it all, they are just too high right now" wtf??????????????? How are they playing good right now????????????????????????????????????????????
March 23, 200619 yr Author comment_6218 Well today is the day. Hopefully we play as hard as we can and move on to the next game. Game time is 6:27 P.N. CT. I assume most areas will get the Duke game though.
March 23, 200619 yr Author comment_6224 Just a note: Sometimes CBS has a different game on HD than the regular CBS channel.
March 24, 200619 yr comment_6228 YEa. They did that on the first 2 days but after that its been the same. They did have memphis on HD for about 3 minutes of gametime last night. Only a damn number 1 seed. Now that Duke is out they might be forced to put Memphis on. Although the 3 minutes I got to see Dorsey clanked 2 free throws and none of them could hit a shot if their life depended on it.
March 24, 200619 yr Author comment_6229 You were bad luck. Other than those 2 misses we were 12 for 16 on free throws and we shot over 50% for the game! At the point of the game you are referring to Dorsey missed AT LEAST 5 straight shots also, t go with those 2 free throw misses. but he was a monster the second half. One time he got called for a technical though and one of our players went off on him for being that stupid to chance messing us up from winning! Me and my brother and dad got a nice laugh at Duke missing the rebound time after time in the final minute on LSU's missed free throws! lol If they hadn't kept doing that they may have won. We didn't like how the Texas or UCLA games turned out either. In the UCLA game, they like slid across the floor with the ball at the end and they didnt call him for traveling. I hate when the officials do that. So now Memphis has a TOUGH matchup to get to the final 4. UCLA is tough! And yes you will get it. After tomorrow, ALL games are shown nationally, no more cases of multiple games at the same time the rest of the way.
March 24, 200619 yr Author comment_6231 Memphis vs. UCLA will be at 6:05 P.M. (CT) Saturday evening. UCLA did so bad they are due for a good game. I know we can beta them though. I sure hope we take care of it! We have won every one of these three games by 16 points! And by the way Dorsey shoots free throws at under a 40% clip, so no shocker you witnessed some misses. Carney missed a free throw on a technical. If you take that out and the 2 by dorsey, suddenly we shot 80%.
March 25, 200619 yr Author comment_6242 Too bad I didn't think to get endings of all games on DVD for a nice recap of this great tournament. Anyway today's game will be tough. We are only favored by 3 and I badly want to win this one! We already made the elite 8 another year since I have beena fan, but this would be the first final 4 since i was like 8 years old! And for some reason Calipari isn't even apparently putting in as much time as he needs to. He wouldnt even stay tow atch the gonzaga/UCLA game and he said he "didn't learn much" from watching tape of our first meeting with them! Hello, it is his job to get prepared to beat them, not ignore it and hope we find a way! I do think we can do great, but we need to play GREAT defense to win I think.
