March madness live app on phone/tablet. Or March madness live on your laptop even. Should be HD, and you will be able to stream to a Chromecast or some sort of streaming device.

Yeah I think they stream it for free in an app.

Or, one of the sketchier sites will have it. I've always used firstrowsports . eu

Wake Forest scares me, if we wind up playing them I think we lose.

KState I feel much better about, if we wind up with them I think it's on to UCLA.

Wake Forest and UCLA really scare me because I just don't think our D is strong enough to slow those teams down as much as we'd want to and I don't think we can score enough to keep up with them. If we had trouble keeping up with Marshall's offense in our own gym I really worry about playing a more dynamic offense on a neutral court.

How amazing would it be if we could somehow pull it off and play UK in the Sweet 16?

While WF does scare me more than K-State, I think we win. Remember the reason we struggled with Marshall was because they went 17-30 from 3. We've been much better defending the 3 since that game. So If WF makes 17 3s then yes I think we would lose but if we don't allow them to go off, I think we move on.

i'd rather play against the teams with the shitty defenses since players on opponents that are bad at offense still tend to turn into kobe ******* bryant against us.

I truly am one of those people that don't really care what sports analyst have to say. I'll listen because they obviously do watch a lot of basketball and it's something to watch but at the end of the day no one knows what's going to happen in a course of a game. I do remember when we got the Harvard draw, everyone picked them over us as a 12/5 upset. Purdue it was a split and last year I feel like everyone picked St Joes.. This year I feel as if the majority have us moving on and even some have us beating UCLA. Now again, I'm not trying to give them all the credit, but really we did lose to Harvard, and Harvard was in control the whole time. Purdue was a coin flip, and St Joes was a coin flip but majority picking St Joes which we ended up losing. What was everyone's thoughts going into the tournament the past 3 years? I didn't follow much on all these metrics, but it shocked me that a team like Harvard could beat us, but it almost seemed as a no brainer the way the analyst were speaking. Does everyone truly feel confident we won't have a problem in the first game? I just want to win with relatively ease and see this UC / UCLA matchup.

If we can't beat either of these teams, we really don't deserve any respect. I know all these teams are good, but if you can't beat these teams with one of the best teams we've had in awhile, that's a problem

Totally agree. If we truly thought we were sweet 16 caliber wake or kstate shouldn't scare us.
