Jackson held scoreless and has made some really poor decisions on both ends of the floor. Seen him completely forget/ignore defensive assignments and look lost on an offensive set.

I bet Kansas will make a run. Oregon is shooting well enough to maybe score enough to keep from getting blown past. This could be a great second half

I have no words ... Literally have tears streaming down my face right now ... the monkey just got fucked by Mark Few

I remember being on campus during the first run and thinking this was a great one time thing but never expected to have a team that would dominate their conference like this for that long ... fuck
Congrats man. NCAA runs are awesome and Gonzaga had the goods.

This is how Arizona gave the game away. Taking the air out of the ball way too early. The difference so far is that Oregon has still been able to execute at the end of the shot clock. Still, screw it -- keep your foot on the gas until you really can take possessions off the board like at 1:30.

Oregon also is going to have to shoot up to 3 one and ones. Try to draw shooting fouls.

Kansas insisted on trying to come back via 3-pointer the entire 2nd half. This game is probably tied if they were more patient on the offensive end. They outplayed Oregon down the stretch.

They completely ran out of gas in the final 3.5 minutes.

If they'd correctly called two goaltendings against Kansas when they played Davidson in 08 and Creighton hadn't injured Kendall Marshall cause we were kicking the shit out of them in 2012, it'd be 0 and 9.

Who knew the Pacific Northwest could play basketball?

But no offense to every team still alive, tomorrow's game at 5 is the real championship.

Well MSG looks like a piece of garbage

Shot clock doesn't work. 5 minute delay
to get new "mechanism" at the start

Misfunctioning again
