Being a wolverine fan rooted for them last night against UCLA but boy did they tank. Lost by a deuce but missed the final eight shots they took. Most were rushed shots that probably shouldn't have been taken. The few open look shots they took it appeared shooter had the yips.
 
Ah, weren't going to beat Gonzaga anyway if they won. Dont think (but have only casually watched) that team has lost any ncaa tourney games against the number. In basketball, whether pro or college,  my rule is if you have a trio of players that are all star status you got a serious shot at a championship. The Bulldogs have three future NBA'ers playing for them so they fit the bill. In retrospect wish I'd bet a few bill's on them at 2-1 to win the tourney.

Those Zags are like a finely oiled machine.  One guy misses, the next is ready to pick it up.  UCLA played hungry vs. Michigan.  They're gonna need to play like they were starved all week to have a chance vs. gonzaga.

Now, Houston v. Baylor -- could be close; BUT, to me, Baylor w/ those scat guards is the onl;y one that might could stay w/ Gonzaga.

Alright: lets play these games.
Record....5-6

HOUSTEN/BAYLOR.....Under 135
HOUSTEN.....+5
UCLA/GONZAGA.....Under 146.5
UCLA.....+14.5

Analysis:
HOUSTEN and BAYLOR. Everyone pickin OVER in game. I ain't. If BAYLOR hits 3's,game over and I mean OVER. But if they miss,Housten bounds and controls TEMPO. It bad when HOUSTEN leadin rebounder a guard,but there that overflated  b-ball again. And I would expect at this stage REFS lenient and let teams play style without callin fouls.

UCLA/GONZAGA. You get this far in tournament,you not gonna be embardressed. UCLA will try to slow GONZAGA early to keep game in reach. Is JOHN WOODEN still alive. He would be about 125. Lets hypothize if that not work. GONZAGA will pull regs if on gigantic lead. They do have a game they must play Monday. Back door closure. So hopin UCLA can play slow game and stop GONZAGA momentum. If you look at GONZAGA and the conference they play in and beat up on midgets you will know what me talkin about. But they get the best players. Why is that. Only school that has their own PRIVATE JET and a million other amenities for their players.

Boy!, I was already for another round of bonus basketball w/ only 3 secs. left in OT. 

Too bad for a game UCLA team.  However, props to the Zags for stayin' w/ it and sinking the winner.

Couldn't pull the trigger on baylor. Line is down to 4 1/2.  I'll just watch a half. Game doesnt start till 920. No way I'm up to see the end.

Housten was pitiful. Same with TED CRUZ.

RECORD: 6-9

GODZILLA.....-4.5
GODZILLA/ BAYLOR{ain't they from VACATION BOYs state}.....Over 158.5.

ANALYSIS: Dues one really need one. Will TEDDY be in ATTENDANCE with no mask. That idiot prubly never participated in a actual physical activity in he life. Wait. LAWN CROQUET is his preference. DUES JOHN FRANK ARMY see D in this game  ngc3 ngc3 ngc3. I would think GODZILLA would be a tiny worn out from their OT victory 2 days ago. But they 15 deep. And they shootin for UNDEAFETED. SINCE this finally last game of season,I expect scorin. And who could get tired from runnin back and forth with a hundred million zillion TV time outs. Dues I expect anyone to foul out. ngc3 ngc3 ngc3. Yeah if the game goes 12 overtimes. Maybe one should make play with which team players have mor tattoo's or has gone longer without a haircut. Watchin tonight I'M hopin for loose shoestrings on their $700.00 B-BALL shoes and some trip on them and break their knee or elbow. Also hope non-athletic TEDDY BOY gets excited rootin for his STATE team and tumbles out of box and lands on his LYING FUCKIN SKULL KILLIN HIM. MAY ALL make the right wagers on this final endin to COOOOLEDGE B-BALL for this season. JOHN FRANK ARMY has spoken again.
