The Official LR NCAA March Madness Drinking Game Thread!

That’s almost a direct quote from Charles Barkley after the FSU game wrapped up. It is wide open this year.

Ha, thats funny. I assume you mean it being the second half and not the curb stomp part? Anyone but UK and Duke for me.

Yup, anyone but UK and Duke, and Michigan.

Getting o the sweet 16 is awesome and honestly very unexpected; but beating a #1 seed the way we did is much sweeter. I guess having a team that 1 day beats a top team and the next loses to BC by 30 is kind of fun; well when they are playing well. Other than the South our bracket is the most wide open and if we play like we did against Xavier we can win every game. The only down side is I have a 0530 flight Friday morning, looks like I might be up kind of late Thursday night.

 

[runkpanole]

Of course we pull the 10pm Thursday night game....damn it man!!

and West Coast. Would have been sweet to see game here in Atlanta!

I am beginning to think I will have a cold on Friday.

 

[DanC78]

My brother wants me to fly down for the game , but I just started a new job so would have to fly down and back that night, make it to work the next morning, then drive 4 hours to Monterey for my sons bike race on Saturday. Just too much.

Lol...just a bit

The Beer Flu?

 

[runkpanole]

The Beer Flu?

I wish. I have an infection that is being treated with antibiotics, so no drinks for me right now.

 

[Zeek99]

How that whiney coach doesn’t get a T.

I was waiting most of the game for them to T up the coach or some of their players. Dog cussing officials, slamming balls, complaining and flopping all over the place. I've only seen Duke get away that kind of attitude.

Its fun, its exciting, but will drive you to insanity. The inconsistency is maddening. If FSU would play it's best, can beat anyone remaining. Thats a big IF.... Hell, Xavier played so badly even a bad FSU team beat them. Catch anyone on the right night (see UMBC shooting %60 vs UVA).

 

[FSUSarah]

Y'all. I'm still in shock!!

You guys can’t see it, but our band is totally kicking their band’s ass right now .

Hell yeah they are! SSATDT!

 

[DFSNOLE]

Let's go Noles!!

 

[noleclone2]

Incredible stat how Loyala Chicago has won three games by four total points.

 

[billanole]

Let's go Noles!!

You tell ‘em, Jim. I’m so pumped I cai’nt! Let’s Go Noles!

 

[seminoleed]

"Cinderella Seminoles". Has a nice ring to it, no?

And you can hear the war chant in the background, in L.A. of all places.

 

[DFSNOLE]

Good start.

 

[billanole]

Warchant in the background...

 

[FSUTribe76]

The big guy likes hoops too...

 

[billanole]

PJ from the bonusphere. Wowzers! Mr. Mann at the line...

 

[billanole]

Ike and Trent busting a move.

 

[F4Gary]

Keep it up!

 

[billanole]

O K, weather the storm. Settle and get back after them!

 

[noleclone2]

Whelp, we know who refs have money on. Ton of tricky tack on us, early bonus for Zags

 

[billanole]

Warchant rocking, Savoy poppin...and Brandon Allen hits at the buzzer. 11-1 run to end the half.

 

[DFSNOLE]

How much do you love hearing the warchant in LA?

 

[billanole]

How much do you love hearing the warchant in LA?

Warms my pea pickin’ heart. That is such an iconic sound. All sports fans in the country who hear it, know it.
Go Noles!

 

[NoleinATL]

Greg Marshall better keep winning at Wich St , because he is terrible in studio.


Half couldnt have ended better than that run after the cold streak when Zags switched to zone.

Lets Go Noles , lets end this early

 

[noleclone2]

Nice half. We need to not start this half like we did second half against Mizzou and EXavier

Early, the man says early! Do it, FSU.
BTW, Ernie Johnson is one of the few announcers to pronounce both FSU and Seminoles properly.

 

[noleclone2]

Damn refs only reason zags still in this. So frustrated

 

[billanole]

Agree, but they gotta adjust to the calls.

 

[DFSNOLE]

Agree, but they gotta adjust to the calls.

It would help if both teams had to make that adjustment.

 

[noleclone2]

How do you adjust to a charge call like that? My. god.

 

[billanole]

It would help if both teams had to make that adjustment.

Yep.

 

[DFSNOLE]

Yep.

19/8 on personal fouls

 

[runkpanole]

Some of these calls are weak. Makes it hard to just step on the Zags throats.

 

[billanole]

19/8 on personal fouls

Noles are lucky, (or designed) to have enough depth to weather those fouls. Thankfully the Zags are well off of their normal free throw percentage.

 

[noleit]

So now the refs don't see the Zags aren't fouling?

 

[DFSNOLE]

Noles are lucky, (or designed) to have enough depth to weather those fouls. Thankfully the Zags are well off of their normal free throw percentage.

Refs have called TWO fouls on Gonzaga this half.

 

[billanole]

4th Foul on Hachimura. Whew. He has been their best inside tonight.Kabengele can hit from the stripe. Hold on Noles. Find throat, apply foot. Warchant in the background.
