They pretty much self-destructed in the last four minutes of that game. Now they're going to have to to to OSU what OSU did to them in the next few minutes cuz now they're down 8.

I seen it so many times the team that blows the game in
regulation hardly ever wins the game in OT. The air just
comes right out of them.

Brian you survive another day in the Bracket Pool

Major choke job by Xavier .... have to give Ohio State credit for nailing that three to send it to OT, that was from way out there !

That just saved my office bracket too.

It's not the kind of win in an NCAA bracket that you want to brag about, but I'll take it.

I've always been a believer that the good teams just get it done, one way or another -- and Xavier certainly helped them get it done today.

Xavier certainly blew it.

I will say the refs had no balls as that last foul by Oden should have been considered flagrant, intentional, or a technical.

As for the end, why teams don't foul when up three at the end is beyond me. The chances of hitting a three are exponentially greater than scoring three points when getting fouled in the back court or near mid court.

A win is a win, I rather take a ugly win, than a good loss

looking at the brackets... a lot of people (including me) have Lousiville going to the Final 4 out of that region. It just dawned on me now that this is a bracket challenge with horse racing fans. Horse racing, Louisville kinda go hand-in-hand lol. I picked Louisville to go to the final game because I think they're good enough... if they can get past A&M.

I wish I could look at work because I'm not doing half bad here this round. So far I've only lost ODU and Marquette in the sweet sixteen.
