Around SBN: Miikka Kiprusoff Wins 300th Game, Buffalo Crushes Boston

TOURNEY WATCH: 3/23/2010

I'm sure only three people actually watched the game, but man, was there ever some overtime craziness in the CBI on Monday night.

Of the four games, three went to overtime and two of those went to double overtime. IUPUI fell at home to Princeton and its notorious offense in one of the double OT games, while Boston U. was able to survive and advance in just one overtime period.

Meanwhile, Dayton whooped Cincinnati on its home court to advance to the "Elite Eight" of the NIT. Where was this when it mattered in the regular season, Flyers?

(And for my fellow Big East bashers: Connecticut's train wreck of a season finally met an end at the hands of the mediocre Virginia Tech Hokies. About time.)

Thanks for the update

It is amazing how 16 teams get all the publicity when there are so many more still playing. And then there is the women’s tournament too. I haven’t the faintest idea what is going on there.

They tell me, "good fundamentals"

Hail to the Purple, Hail to the White
Wildcat in spirit, Wildcat in fight
Hail Alma Mater from sea to sea
Onward forever, Hail Victory!

I was referring to Sean's comment

on the fact that the women’s tournament hardly gets any publicity.

Women's tournament

is so much chalk and “the top teams from the regular season continuing the beatdown” that it doesn’t really matter until the later rounds. Then you can really dig in and watch the battle of the top teams “fundamentals” and find out which team has the best set of fundamentals.

You know what that sounds like? Minus the fundamentals of course

The NBA. I don’t know a single person who cares about the NBA, but even I’m interested in the late play-offs. Sounds like a lousy way to run a league to me.

Have You Watched

any of these women’s games so far? The Texas women’s team the other night showed zero fundamentals. That was one of the most disastrous efforts I’ve seen from any team at any time at any place at a supposedly high level.

I’m not sure what’s going on in the women’s division with all of the upsets. Normally, the seeded team wins those going away. Whenever I was able to watch one of those upsets for any length of time, the seeded team was simply abandoning any pretext of teamwork.
