FGCU vs UNC game thread for Thursday 17 March 2016

Heels win by 15+ as they run away with it in the 2nd half. Roy is going to light a fire under them and the run to the title is going to start.

2nd half, the tourney begins!
 
We are getting owned by a 16 seed. Wonder if we can borrow their grit.
 
Keep messing around boys and this will be the most remembered game in NCAA tournament history.
 
defense-stay btw man and the rim,,,if not trapping..these guys expecting easy steals/blocks
 
Every player on this team should be embarrassed by that. Hopefully we can scratch out a win against this bottom seed in a virtual home game and get the opportunity to read some bad press clippings, since this being the ncaa tourney either psyched us out or wasn't motivation enough
 
In-friggin-believable. How in the hell is this team playing this bad? You absolutely shut down ND and then hold Virginia to 33% from the field and let Florida nooneknowswhointhehelltheyare torch them to the tune of almost 60%??

Hey, someone better wake the hell up before this team makes history and not in a good way.
 
Missed the front end of two 1 and 1s, Britt not paying attention to the defender behind him, Berry gets tied up in a full court press, Isaiah trying to dunk the ball just inside the foul line, rushed shots by everyone. Defense is pitiful . .

Another inconsistent half by the boys in blue.
 
God this is not the talk I was expecting from the panel at halftime...why did the boys have to prove all the doubters wrong with that half??
 
There are a few people that picked FGCU to win outright. I know Wetzel of Yahoo did. Seth Davis said FGCU would be really competitive.

But no question, we're helping a lot.
 
At work guys what the hell is going on.I see they are shooting 60% and out rebounding us.
 
Geo, at least you are doing something productive. UNC left their nuts in chapel hill
 
Bottom line is this team has been like this all year long. I think they really believe some games will be just given to them because they have North Carolina on the jersey. Well, sorry, but these small schools come to play and with the parity in basketball these days you can't afford to take a night off.

I think we will win as I see the second half going a lot better for us. I think we will play defense better and at this pace they will start missing shots and getting tired. With that said, the way this team has played all year I wouldn't put it past them to come out just as flat as they ended the first half.
 
just win and advance...abuse from pundits wont bother me..but a loss, ughh.ESPN constant loop, at every stage of the tournament and history(always on file as filler material foe ESPN)...no opprtunity for vengeance
 
I wanted a Friday game in hopes the team would see upsets and take things---URGENTLY..well, lets see some poise and performance..grind out a victory...and make me feel better,haha
 
That first half has me so ticked off, I don't even know what to say nor what to expect in the second half. I've never seen such a jekyl and hyde team.
