Wazzu v. UNC is Life and Death!

[Q, West Coast Style]

The Palouse grows wheat which sustains life.

Carolina grows tobacco which causes death.

Go life!

Go Cougs!

[The Seer]

I predict UNC will NOT pass the century mark in this game.

[Dinsdale]

The Palouse grows wheat which sustains life.

Not without pumping rivers dry to irrigate that nasty dry shithole. Massive irrigation causes environmental imbalance, which leads to death.


Pretty much the best offensive team against pretty much the best defensive team... lets get it on.

[MgoBlue-LightSpecial]

...against pretty much the best defensive team...

Oh. I guess you haven't seen Wisconsin.

[War Wagon]

I guess you haven't seen Wisconsin.

Yep. They held KSU to their lowest point total all season.

[The Seer]

78 points.

That's the opposition scoring total for the two games played so far....

[Q, West Coast Style]

Yeah that broke the record for fewest points allowed in first 2 games in the shot clock era of NCAA Tourney which was 81 . . . held by Wazzu for about 2 hours!

[Dinsdale]

And who doesn't miss those riveting Ralph Miller 21-17 nail-biters?

[Dinsdale]

No, that's Wisconsin.

My math tells me 81, but still very impressive indeed. Winthrop's scoring offense is somewhere near the bottom of D1, so they gave WSU a little extra help there. Wisky gave up 56 and 55 respectively to two very good offensive teams. Not too shabby either.

Of course I'm homering for the Big Ten here, but...in fairness, they're both excellent defensive teams...Wisky is #1 in scoring defense, and Wash St right behind. However you could argue Wash State's numbers are more impressive considering they (likely) had to defend against more offensively-capable teams from start to finish this season.

Yeah. Screw an entire season's worth of statistics. Let's just focus on two games.

Genius take.

You're (likely) doing a Marcus Allen impersonation, right?

[Dinsdale]

Yeah. Screw an entire season's worth of statistics.

Genius take.

Why bother holding the tourney? I mean, we have an entire season's statistics to tell us UNC is the best team, and Western Kentucky, Xavier, and Villanova have no business in the postseason.

But guess what? It's that "what have you done for me lately time of year.

[MgoBlue-LightSpecial]

They held the #7 and #26th ranked scoring teams in the nation to 56 and 55 respectively.

Wisky HAS done it lately. And in the past. And everywhere in between. They also do it on the boards.

Quit picking on Dinsdale. It's bad enough the U&L has to take a back seat to God's Country for microbrews and cheese.

[M Club]

cheese, yeah, but who cares. microbrews, hardly. get your hops, mo'fucka...

[Dinsdale]

cheese, yeah, but who cares.

There's these places in the U&L called Tillamook and Bandon, and as far as mass-produced cheddar goes, Wisconsin can't even pretend to hang.

microbrews, hardly. get your hops, mo'fucka...

Ignore him. He's flagrantly trolling. We'll just give him a warning, and if his stupidity doesn't cease and desist, we'll simply cut off their supply of hops.


Although I'm still not sure of the connection between Wazzu and the U&L comes from -- Wazzu is in the Midwest.

[Q, West Coast Style]

Sadly they don't make Bandon Cheese in Bandon anymore. Just like they don't brew Oly in Tumwater anymore, they brew Miller. Really one of the biggest examples of corporate abuses out there . . . they brew Miller in Tumwater and they brew Oly in Wisconsin.

We prefer the term Inland Northwest or Inland Empire.

UCLA - 70 Miss Valley St. 29
UCLA - 51 aTm 49

29 + 49 = 78

[Dinsdale]

Sadly they don't make Bandon Cheese in Bandon anymore.

I knew that Tillamook had bought out Bandon, but I didn't realize they'd shut it down in Bandon.

Just like they don't brew Oly in Tumwater anymore, they brew Miller.

Really? I thought they'd shut down that antiquated place altogether. I guess I don't get as pumped for the free brewery tour driving through Oly like I used to.

You don't seem to understand. I'm from the freaking capital of the U&L. That region was "invented," alright...

By us.

But it's known as the "Arid Shithole," not some other goofy name.

Isn't there like several times as many people in Tri-Cities as there is a Spokane, anyway?


Regardless, if you refer to Spokane as a "cultural hub," you are an unmitigated loser who has very thoroughly KYOA.

Great visual, though...

Spokanian: So, what brings you to Spokane?

I'm getting the giggles even thinking about it.

Around here the "inland empire" is, like, Riverside.

I'm not anywhere around there, and that's what I know as the Inland Empire. The shit east of LA and whatsuch, although I certainly couldn't define the limits.

Not to be confused with the "inland abomination," which is the cities on the other side of the lake from Seattle.

[Goober McTuber]

Back on topic. The much more interesting subtext to this game is that Roy Williams criticized Tony’s father’s coaching style; I believe it was during the 2000 tournament when the Badgers made the Final Four. Hopefully, Tony will make like George W. Bush and gain revenge for his pappy.

i visited bandon when i was 10 and was traumatized by the cheese-making process that i didn't touch the stuff again till i was 16 or so. wisco can have their cheese.
