King Kobra leads by a point over Hrosen2 while Air Fabone 23 deflates to 5th
CERRITOS APT/NORWALK, CA (smt)- #8E-Wisconsin rallied from a 7-point deficit with six minutes left to stun the top overall seed #1E-Villanova, 65-62. If you notice at the end, Wisconsin put players on the life for the free throw and after the miss, Villanova had trouble getting the ball out for a buzzer beating shot. I never understood why coaches sometimes empty the foul line giving the opponent a free rebound if there’s a miss. #4MW-Purdue blew a 19-point second half lead but rebounded their way to victory. #2W-Arizona and #4S-Butler struggled to put their opponent away with each holding on for a 9-point win while #4W-West Virginia, #11W-Xavier, and #4E-Florida rolled to easy victories.
Seems like every day there is one big play that is debated. #8W-Northwestern trailed by 20 early and rallied to cut it to three… oh, wait, no goaltending after all. And add a dumb coach Chris Collins technical. Momentum killed and now down by 7. Collins said it should’ve been a 3-point game, well, without his running onto the court while the ball was live, it would’ve still been a 5-point game. He made it a 7-point game with under 5 minutes left. Congrats.
Hrosen2 (2nd, 77 pts) and Biggie’s Back (3rd-Tied, 75) went 7-1 but it is King Kobra(78) who leads the pool by one. The air went out of Air Fabone 23 (5th-T, 74) as he went 4-4 after a 31-1 first round. Six picked Wisconsin and 17 picked Xavier in only two upsets of the day. Fourteen (14) went 2-6 and Samurai Jack was one of them and is last with 46 points. In fact Robinson C has the bottom two entries with Flip Fighters in 177th at 48 points.
With Villanova out, Continue reading
