Oregon is speeding them up and getting them out of their comfort zone. They are able to do so because Oregon is also a very efficient offensive team (like 12th in country) but play at much faster pace. typically Wisconsin can just wear teams out sorta like an Alabama offense in football. but this Oregon matchup isn't a good one.

the tempo is clearly bothering them as they already have 6 turnovers, they only average like 8 on the season.

They have waaaaaaaaay to many white dudes on this team to ever be good.

No idea what I was thinking taking this team as a final 4 squad.

Oregon didn't miss.

49 pts in the first half is pretty nuts.

Horrible shot choice by Ennis at the end of the game. If you are the favorite gotta just go for the tie and extend the game.

i'm not arguing they weren't questionable shot choices, they were. but its not by any means a given he was getting a better look by penetrating. the jumper he was open, the 2nd one the moment got the best of him.

if they go down, nobody is questioning his shot choice. he did enough that last few minutes that he can make any choice he wants there.

Ol dude not only finally lost, but he lost two in a row (one of which was one of his Final Four teams, Oregon). Adios

I'm really upset w myself that I didn't enter more than three contests (only one of which was for cash). I went 25/32 in first round, I'm 5/6 today, MSU would make it 6/7, and I've only lost two Sweet Sixteen teams (nothing beyond that). Best I've done overall in a long while.

It's a no no to talk about your bracket before the elite 8 unless you lost a final 4 team......just sayin......

Suck a dick, Ted.

That's what I get for talking about my bracket....I bet on Kansas getting to the next weekend and getting Embiid back, where they were a totally different team. Bracket, meet shredder. You guys should get along great.
