Midwest/St. Louis region discussion (uncch #1)

If we're so torn between a State vs Kansas game, what would this board look like if Kentucky played UNC?

I'd pull for UK only because I live in NC. If I lived elsewhere it would probably be UNC... but I would have to have lived elsewhere for quite some time.

No I think Wheat is related to Stillman White because he has a huge man crush on him.

Maybe Wheat IS Stillman White! He posted after the game from his I-Phone in the lockerroom!

"Hey guys, I think I - I mean, STILLMAN, is super cool. And his hair is rad."

Is this a binary decision? I wouldn't pull for either.

Howell and Leslie both have 2 fouls with 6 minutes left to go in the first half...

I watch a high number of Pack games, I have yet to see a game this year in which Richard Howell is not in foul trouble.

[Bob Green]

Halftime: State 33, Kansas 32. That was a hard fought first half with Kansas recording 7 blocked shots. State is 4-9 on 3-pointers, while Kansas is 0-8.

?....
Solid game for Stillman; huge game for Bullock and Zeller. 20 points and 22 rebounds- that's impressive.

And Henson...he stepped up too with some key shots.

I'm much more handsome than Stilman will ever be

I'd love to see State win. Everyone plays to their best ability, I'm good with that, win or lose.

DevilDeac disputes this fact! He offered photo evidence too. Stillman has the hair you and I dream of at night!

I know you would love to see 11 seeded NC State win. I don't blame you. I would want no part of Kansas either...

[FerryFor50]

Every time I watch Kansas play in this tournament, I can't get over their excellent ball movement and offensive sets. It's fantastic to watch...

[Dukehky]

Seems to me that State just cannot get a call in the paint.

Thomas Robinson v. Jon Henson would be fun to watch. I'd like to see Henson have to guard an NBA PF, which Robinson is. Plus we get to see the battle of the goofy, white seven footers!!!

I'm looking forward to Withy swatting Henson over and over...

Withy has more total blocks this season than Henson.

[FerryFor50]

As for calls... both teams are beating the crap out of each other. Not a lot of calls going either way...

[Dukehky]

Howell has kind of been an idiot. Every offensive board he gets, he goes as hard as he can to the rim and throws it at the backboard. You're not getting the calls, maybe take a page out of Zoubs book and throw it out to Scott Wood. Jeeze Louise.

And looking at the ref every time after think you got fouled doesn't make the refs want to give you the call. He learned that move from CJ Leslie.

[FerryFor50]

Kansas picked a bad time to go cold...

and what's with all the fouling of 3 point shooters?

[FerryFor50]

CJ Leslie... Withey has blocked 10 shots. Do not think he won't block another...

[sbroc012]

Taylor is gonna eat Stillman's lunch on Sunday, though I don't see Kansas running away against UNC at all, both teams are gonna be evenly matched at all positions except for pg, which will give the edge to KU

[Greg_Newton]

Correction to my earlier post - the ESPN box score had the rebound discrepancy wrong, it wasn't 55-27 after all.

It was 63-30.

[davekay1971]

I was cheering so hard for State to beat Kansas. Broke my heart that Kansas won that game...

Sigh...

Well, Kansas won, and I'm a JAYHAWK now!

Rock...chalk...Jayhawk!
