This is the place to discuss all Saturday's men's action. Keep in mind the women's game starts at 8 PM EST/5 PM PST!
First, the reason most people are watching this tourney: The brackets, listed with caveats.
1. Sup (who I suspect is Rishi, based on this), 28 of 32 (caveat: had Wake Forest going to the Final 4)
T-2. Ducky23 & UCONNBEARFAN!!!, 27 of 32 (caveat: Ducky23 had FSU going to the Final 4, UCONNBEARFAN had FSU in the Elite 8 and West Virginia in the Final 4.)
Five way tie for 4th: Pyunny's Pirates & HolmoePhobe (Wake Forest in the Sweet 16), dballisloose (Wake Forest and West Virginia in the Sweet 16), picks (Wake Forest and FSU in the Sweet 16) and The Hot Tamale (Wake Forest in the Final 4).
18 way tie for 9th: I'm just mentioning this because it includes me. Other notable CGB personalities: CALumbus Bear, BearBallCarrier, Montezuma's Revenge, Chowder, Ohio Bear, OskiWeeWee, sharkbit12, sactownxsi, Mister Pie, and Fire Starkey. Another four of them had Wake Forest in the Final Four.
Wow. Lot of Demon Deacon love. You'd have thought Timmy D and CP3 were stil playing there. Or maybe their mascot doesn't haunt you in the night.

Don't expect the top 3 to stay up there by the end of next week. Almost everyone is still very much alive, and I expect Remorseful Bruin Babe to make a comeback at any time and own us all. This weekend is when the fireworks should start shooting off and brackets begin dying.
Onto the games (all times PST) and my picks.
#6 UCLA-#3 Villanova, 10:05 AM, East Regional in Philly
#10 Maryland-#2 Memphis, 12:20 PM, West Regional in Kansas City, winner faces Marquette-Missouri winner
#9 Texas A&M-#1 UConn, 12:35 PM, West Regional in Philly
#5 Purdue-#4 Washington, 2:40 PM, West Regional in Portland, winner faces A&M-UConn winner
#8 LSU-#1 North Carolina, 2:45 PM, South Regional in Greensboro
#10 Michigan-#2 Oklahoma, 2:50 PM, South Regional in Kansas City, winner faces Syracuse-ASU winner
#12 W. Kentucky-#4 Gonzaga, 5:10 PM, South Regional in Greensboro, winner faces LSU-UNC winner
#7 Texas-#2 Duke, 5:15 PM, East Regional in Greensboro, winner faces UCLA-Villanova winner
As for the picks: 1-1 yesterday, 3-5 against the spread. My Pac-10 bet of over 6.5 wins can be clinched tomorrow if UCLA and UW win; if both of them go down it's dead in the water, because ASU and USC are going to have uphill climbs and Cleveland State looks like the best 13th seed EVER.
UCLA +2 vs Villanova. This line is a joke. Villanova didn't play their greatest game against American but still took over down the stretch. UCLA just looked crappy,blowing layup after layup. It bears mentioning this is still a home game for the Wildcats. Of course I have the Bruins +2.
Maryland +9 vs Memphis. Meh. Memphis struggled, but with around seven minutes left they turned the gears up and pulled through. Not really interested in this line.
A&M +10 vs UConn. A little low, but people are undervaluing UConn a little compared to the sexier Pitt/Louisville picks. Not ready to betting against a one seed though. Yet.
Purude +1 vs UW. No.
Michigan +6.5 vs Oklahoma. This line sends up red flags, red flares, Red Bull, Red Scare. Michigan +6.5.
LSU +11 vs UNC. Okay, now I'm ready to go against a one seed. LSU +11.
W. Kentucky +11 vs Gonzaga. Whoa, none of the other 1/2 seeds could draw a line bigger than this. Gonzaga -11.
Texas +7.5 vs Duke. Oh look, one team with a coach I despise versus another team coached by Rick Barnes. I hope they go 24 overtimes and the winner gets blasted into oblivion next week.

god, ucla looks awful
i’d bet bruins fans are melting down already, and it’s only 10:30 in the morning.
So, basically, you gotta Go Bears!
Oh man it's so entertaining
TONS of ref bashing too, but I guess that’s a given. Is it weird that I kinda want them to somehow pull it out so that UCLA fans can continue to bitch about a sweet 16 team and suffer longer? I think they’d be happier if they finally lost.
The #1 greatest threat to America: BEARS
The Villanova players are just killing the Bruins physically. I feel like it is bad for basketball that this crap is seen by so many as the right way to play the game, but after four years of UCLA doing it to everyone in the Pac-10, I won’t be shedding any tears.

BUT BUT BUT...
it’s not the BRUINS fault. IT’S ALL THE REFS I TELL YOU! or at least, so say a lot of people on Bruins Nation.
This one is my favorite
They are thumping us, no doubt about it…
but the poor officiating early creates alot of momentum, especially when playing at home. Think about that DC shot/no call. He makes both it is 8-7 us. Instead they get the no call, hit the 3 go up 9-6. Next thing you know its 20-9.
They’re still really steamed about a call when it was 8-7….
Every single game that there are more fouls on UCLA then their opponent
they bitch about the reffing – ignoring the fact that UCLA is way less physical then they used to be and are taking a ton of jumpshots. It’s no wonder they draw less fouls. Just like it’s crazy for us to expect more fouls on the other team because Cal doesn’t play inside enough to draw lost of fouls like, say, Washington
The #1 greatest threat to America: BEARS
I think this is true generally…in this game I’m not really sure that the refs should be calling more fouls, but I think they could have done early on to control Villanova a bit. Some of the plays early on (especially the hard foul when Shipp was going up for a dunk) were borderline dangerous.
by Tedfordisgod on Mar 21, 2009 11:52 AM PDT up reply actions
Also, the problem with UCLA is that they have been coached to commit fouls on defense. When the refs call it, they get into trouble. But the refs also don’t normally call it.

Watch me ignore your reasoned argument

Those Siena and WI wins were crazy…and then I wake up to UCLA being murdered. Life is good.

This is really embarrassing
While I despise UCLA fans, this is never a fun way to go out for the players.
by Avinash Kunnath on Mar 21, 2009 12:11 PM PDT reply actions
I don't want to bash ALL UCLA fans
but I can say this with certainty – most of the Bruins Nations posters do not deserve to root for a team like UCLA. Their players have been so good, so consistent the last few years, and they’re a good group of players from an off the court perspective as well. It’s hard reading those guys bashing their own players all the time lately.
The #1 greatest threat to America: BEARS
I dunno. We were kind of the same way in 2007 with the football team.

that pissed me off too
although I think most of the hate was unfairly aimed at Ayoob

cal fans, even at their collective worst, have never been as horrible as the majority of BN posters. i think that is a pretty fair assessment.
i'm here to clean your pool but i don't have a pool *bowchica bowow*
Right, the way people handled the Maryland loss was pretty representative to me. We get really worked up before the game, we convince ourselves there is no way we can lose, then we bitch the entire game. But then, when it is over, we immediately acknowledge that it was just a tough loss to end what was a pretty kick ass season. But nobody don’t feel the need to write 6000 word posts validating how awesome we are. And we don’t develop a code language of acronyms to make it impossible for outsiders to understand what the hell we are talking about.

“When you look at Oski, you realize how proud it is to be a Golden Bear. His worn out sweatsuit. His pedophilic logo. His beer straw through the eye, now forgotten to the ages. The tradition. The honor. GO BEARS.”
by Avinash Kunnath on Mar 21, 2009 12:28 PM PDT up reply actions
exactly.
the difference is whenever the bruins stumble – be it in football or basketball – BN goes into total denial mode and starts spinning the shit out of their losses, blaming everything underneath the sun short of their own teams’ performance.
cal fans will equally bitch and moan, but we have short memories and move on. and we don’t always pull out the “blame the refs” card.
also, let us not forget how much bruins fans railed on hasiak for apparently not having a good enough academic standing for ucla. look how that turned out.
i'm here to clean your pool but i don't have a pool *bowchica bowow*
Still one of the best runs in recent NCAA basketball. It will be strange that none of this guys will be around anymore. Strange and awesome.
by Tedfordisgod on Mar 21, 2009 12:14 PM PDT up reply actions
In the end, UCLA did get f’ed for no good reason being sent to play in Philadelphia.
I think the pod system really needs to be rethought. If they want to give teams home games…they should give teams home games. Otherwise, the games should be on neutral sites. I seems just wrong that some 3 seeds get this huge advantage but other three seeds don’t (like Missouri playing in Boise.)
Oh
And I had those bastards in the Elite 8. ARRRRRRRGH.

I thought about the Memphis -10 line a little bit longer
But ultimately passed. I’m sure they’ll win by 40 now.

So is everybody rooting FOR Maryland because we want the team that beat us to progress? Or AGAINST Maryland, because you’re pissed at Maryland for beating us? Or FOR Memphis because if they lose your bracket is a vacant hellscape of pain and suffering?
The #1 greatest threat to America: BEARS
In the tournament, you always got to root for the team that beat you to lose. Then you don’t kick yourself about what might have been. So MEMPHIS!

Memphis. If they lose, my bracket is toast.

Does anybody know what a "player control foul" is?
cure my ignorance!
The #1 greatest threat to America: BEARS
If a defensive player does have his feet set, but the offensive player is driving out of control, they can call a charge on the offensive player.
by Tedfordisgod on Mar 21, 2009 12:29 PM PDT up reply actions
damn…that should read “if a defensive player does NOT have his feet set…”

Comment of the day from BN - the refs might have made a 20+ point difference!
the refs helped set the tone of the game and stopped our momentum each time.
i think we probably still would have lost but you never know.
The #1 greatest threat to America: BEARS
Just from looking at the fouls…well, I can’t really blame them for being upset. No one in Villanova in foul trouble.
by Avinash Kunnath on Mar 21, 2009 12:43 PM PDT up reply actions
UCLA played horribly though. They were going to lose no matter what. I have never seen them play that bad. Of course I fucking enjoyed them playing so bad. I officially adopt Nova as my team for the tournament.

Fix either one and UCLA still loses, together it’s a blowout.

I wish Cal had won…then we would be down by 13!
by Tedfordisgod on Mar 21, 2009 12:32 PM PDT up reply actions
I dunno, perhaps losing was a blessing in disguise. That could be Cal getting embarrassed out there against Memphis.
So, basically, you gotta Go Bears!
You're weird
Give me the win and then the rout. It’s not like we did any better against MD.
by Avinash Kunnath on Mar 21, 2009 12:34 PM PDT up reply actions
Vazquez is like a mix in potential between Ginobili and Rudy
Not as much control as Ginobili, and not as much hops as Rudy, but I see a little bit of the same movement.
by Avinash Kunnath on Mar 21, 2009 12:37 PM PDT reply actions
If UCLA is favored by 5 over Cal, it looks like UCLA -5; if you bet the Bruins -5, you’re expecting them to win by 6 or more; if they win by 5 or less or lose you lose the bet, if they win by 5 you get your money back.
UCLA +2 just means they’re 2 point underdogs and you need UCLA to lose by 1 or win outright.

re: the coke zero ad that just aired
i saw the guy painted all in blue, and got excited for an ‘Arrested Development’ movie. i have never been more disappointed to see coke zero. what a letdown.

Yeah
I don’t know if I believe that those type of comments fire up the other team (maybe they do, maybe they don’t). But at the very least, it makes the player look like a complete fool if they’re wrong, and look like an arrogant ass even if they’re right.

We really ain’t talked too much about Maryland.

I'm thinking about writing a fanpost on the topic
but refs in basketball are a huge issue that seems relatively unsolveable
The #1 greatest threat to America: BEARS
The NBA issue is pretty solveable
Hire young refs who can keep up with the pace of the game and retire the old ones who can’t (Bennett Salvatore, I’m looking at you). College is pretty bad though.
by Avinash Kunnath on Mar 21, 2009 3:52 PM PDT up reply actions
I'm not convinced
A sport where judgment calls come into play so constantly, when so many situations can be argued either way…it just seems like an intractable issue
The #1 greatest threat to America: BEARS
Well in the NBA everything gets evened out in a 7 game series
There’ve only be two or three huge cases where the refs went one-sided one way. In college it’s bigger because of the single elimination format.

Why do the defensive players lined up on the paint during a free throw put their hands up in the air like they’re saying “don’t shoot me”?
www.californiagoldenblogs.com
Supposedly it disturbs a player’s peripheral vision and makes it tougher for them to concentrate ahead on the stroke.
