Upset in the Brewing

[tornado]

#15 seed Robert Morris leads #2 seed Villanova 28-22 at half

 

[Bravesfan]

Robert Morris now up 41-34 with about 10 to go, while ODU up 49-46 over Notre Dame with 25 secs left. ODU keeps the door open for ND by missing FT's.

Meltdown city for BYU. Up 10 to down 3.

Yeah, go BYU!

ODU up 51-48 with 9.6 secs left. ODU has fouls to give, so we'll see what happens.

 

[Bravesfan]

ODU wins as Notre Dame's game tying 3 at the end went about two-thirds through the basket only to come out! ND gets a worthless two at the end to make the score 51-50.

Great start by the mids today!

 

[DUBrave5]

So people were upset about Notre Dame being a 6 seed, maybe they shouldn't have been. ODU wins 51-50

Meltdown city for BYU. Up 10 to down 3.

Most likely OT for this game. Tied at 75, BYU TO, but likely less than a second left in regulation.

Edit: 0.5 secs. left. Catch and shoot situation for BYU....OT now.

 

[BradleyJD]

BYU was up 13 at one point...they have 1 minute left to tie it up in OT

Tied with 52 secs left, Florida ball.

 

[BradleyJD]

There was some good D by BYU on that last possession, but what the heck was Florida trying to do there?

 

[Bravesfan]

Looks good for BYU now. BYU up 93-86 with 1:03 left, and FT's upcoming for Florida.

 

[Bravesfan]

BYU wins 99-92 in double overtime. Nice job by the Cougars to hang in there after blowing the big lead to Florida.

Looks like Robert Morris is going to lose as they are down now 64-58 in OT, with 2:41 left.

 

[Da Coach]

So is the Robert Morris game final?

Can the midmajors go 3-0 against the Majors (ACC and Big East)?

 

[Beninator]

Nova wins 73-70

 

[Bravesfan]

Nova wins 73-70

Robert Morris melted down toward the end of regulation as they blew a 55-47 lead with 4 minutes left. Great effort though by RM, but I guess the loss was for the better as I have Villanova in my Final Four!

11 1/2 months ago ODU was in the finals of the CIT. They seem to have improved quite a bit in those 11 months. Really wish the other team playing in the final could have done the same.

Well, it all starts at the top, & ODU has a very good coach IMO...(enough said:x)

...and I think they had a number of big guys

ODU is the type of team that Bradley should aspire to be. They don't make the NCAA Tournament every year, but they seem to be in the running for the CAA championship most years. Last year was a down year for them, but that seems to be more the exception rather than the norm.

I expect Bradley next year to be where ODU is now, or to be a highly seeded NIT team at the very least.

And I still believe that Jim Les is as good a coach as Blaine Taylor is. But next year will go a long way towards proving my theory.
