All these close games with 2, 3 or 4 seeds vs 12,13,14 seeds...some really great teams this first round! WOW!

These scores are so low though, like junior high girls games low. It's like watching blind Brownie troops play. Ugh!

I miss those 100 point games! Come on!!

Jr High girls ball is excruciatingly painful, I agree. High school gorls ball is too. I have a friend who claimed to know this - he said there was a statistic nationwide that someone had calculated with a masters thesis that a girls highschool basketball game, on average, has a stoppage of play every 7.4 seconds. If you watch and time it, that's about accurate.

I coach HS ball, and I love good D. There's some good D being played. It's also an issue of tempo control, though. The smaller schools can't complete athletically with the power houses, so they play a controlled game looking to keep it low scoring. It's easier to control the game to a slower tempo than it is to control it to a faster one.

New Mexico has 11 points at the half. ELEVEN. In the NCAA tournament. OMG.

I hope UNC keeps up with the momentum.....I want someone to break 100 points today, dammit.

Excrutiatingly low scores this afternoon!
