The ball bounced around the hoop then came to a rest on the back of the rim. Never saw that in a game before

Is there a reason that you decided to be so combative on ODU's message board? jeesh

Thought that was funny...my friends and I were laughing hard when that happened. And although I hate the whole bracket buster concept, good game tonight. Your team is good.

I don't like it either. Started off as a good thing but turned against mid majors very fast

Yep, both teams were locks for at-larges and now ODU is on the bubble. Every year we say mid-majors are screwed out of bids and then we fight each other for them late in the season. No one to blame but ourselves for participating though...unfortunately we need the exposure since ESPN won't give it to us in the regular season. It's a Catch-22. Like I said somewhere else, I bet you more mid-major bids have been lost by this thing than gained over the years (plus it feeds off the RPI's of better conferences, which would be the MVC this year. What does the MVC have to gain by playing these games?). Whatever, it is what it is.

Agree completely and would on your board as well but blueman1975 sent me a pm saying that the board was for monarch fans only so watch it or get banned. I asked him to not threaten me without avrule being broke he then said it isn't a threat then deleted my posts and banned me. I actually like odu and wear my odu hat a lot that jbbp sent me. Oh well, like you said it is what it is

MonarchNation started because they couldn't stand any, and I mean ANY, negative talk on the CAAZONE. Double extra-plus boring. I don't even read it anymore.

And congratulations on the win. Ain't it too bad that we have to beat each other up for the pleasure of the emperor?

That IS rare. I think it's more common for the ball to get stuck between the rim and the backboard.
