Unbelievable choke. Iona blew two 20+ point leads during the regular season also. They looked like a completely different team in the second half.

That game was some of the worst basketball I've ever watched. I don't think I've ever seen two DI teams look that inept in the half court.
Sadly that's what got MVSU to the dance, great representation of SWAC basketball :thumbdown:

Yes it would. They cannot look like that against Kentucky or the Cardiac Toppers will be put in the coffin. :(

Neither. He said it was a terrible basketball game. (Seriously that what he said in the halftime interview)

Would love to see a Harvard-Montana second round matchup, but the odds are against it. If that happens, the snack will fly for 48 hours! :mrgreen:

Davidson and Montana are both out of the Dance. Harvard has a second half left, but may be going home as well.

Harvard gave Vandy quite a scare but they fell short once again, making the Crimson 0-fer in the past 3 postseason contests. :(

Score: Vanderbilt 79, Harvard 70.

Harvard went down fighting. Good luck to Vandy the rest of the way. My law partner has them in his Final Four! :nod:

Harvard
Davidson
Norfolk State

Also, it was 7 points for Redick actually...buy don't remind me about that game, I was there. :cry:

If it wasn't for a 12 minute stretch where we could only score 2 points and couldn't buy a bucket or a foul call...maybe the outcome could have been different.

:cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:
ESPN after that game said it was a blowout how can 1 seed beat a 16 seed by twelve points and it be classified as blowout??????!!!!!!What did they do to slowdown Redick did they switch players on him?

They gave Mississippi Vally a taste of their own medicine using aggressive 2nd half basketball against the Delta Devils and it worked.Texas Southern nearly pulled a comeback on them in the SWAC Championship Finals losing 71-69.

Both teams used uptempo ball as their style of preference it may not be artistic sometimes but it effective.
