NCAA First Four Underway

[HawkeyeHypnosis]

Anyone else watching the Hampton/Manhattan game?

 

[PCHawk]

Not me. I just can't get excited about the first four games this year. It's just not the same without the hawks in it.

 

[KCHawkeye]

Is Manhattan favored? I thought I read that.

Is Manhattan favored? I thought I read that.

Yeah and pretty big. opened at -7 and climbed all the way to -9 or -9.5 in some places.

BYU opened at -2 and has gone from there to -3 at most places

Byu will win easily and cruise to the final four. They are nationally followed and are so good cyfan would let them in the Big 12.

In all seriousness, I have BYU beating Xavier. Hopefully I'm not 0 for 1 before the round of 64 begins.

 

[droidhawk]

Byu is fun to watch.

Tried to watch it but, meh. Might try to tune in some Illinois in the NIT later on.

 

[Sooby]

BYU heard about Ole Miss, and the players thought it was some single Southern lady that they could take as their 5th or 6th wife.

 

[1hawkeye1]

Illinois is getting pwned early. they've scored 4 points in 9:00. Down 20-4

 

[JG10Hawk]

BYU and Ole Miss game is a fun one so far. Fast pace is an understatement.

 

[LivermoreHawk]

BYU is going nuts from behind the arc.

 

[hawkeyebob62]

You can just tell the Illini are playing with a chip on their shoulder. This is like watching our first Wisconsin game. Back to BYU...

 

[JG10Hawk]

Ole Miss woth a 17 point comeback, 7 minutes to go. Crazy game.

 

[HaydenHawk56]

How did BYU lose that one? They have some crazy good shooters. But, Miss nailed some big 3s as well....stronger on the inside as to.

 

[spliff45]

Just like the girls on their campus....BYU with no D.

North Florida about to play Robert Morris and then Dayton and Boise State

North Florida about to play Robert Morris and then Dayton and Boise State

Rooting for N Florida since its a former Iowa opponent. Hard not to root for Boise State since Dayton somehow gets a home play-in game.

Also, UCONN vs Arizona State is on tonight for NIT action. Decent Pac12 vs American conference match-up. I always like to see middle to upper tier conference opponents face-off....can give you an idea on how good a conference actually is. However, its the NIT so you never know how motivated some of the teams are (I'm looking at you Illinois)
