Suck donkey balls.

The play is atrocious and the atmosphere is cavernous

I decided not to go bc of the ridiculous seats.

Regionals are usually in better venues for watching basketball.

I know it's about the money, but damn... Basketball is not meant to be played in a football stadium.

Scoring is so low because the players can’t shoot well to save their lives in these domes.

Got to work it inside to score.

It’s not a good tv product either.

Basketball was meant to be played in arenas.

Why not play in like the new Clippers stadium or Chicago arena or something

I went there in '06 when LSU got slaughtered by UCLA. I didn't enjoy the game but I didn't think it was a bad venue.

Money drives all decisions these days.

This game might reach the 60s. Maybe.

Nothing but missed shots

Tight rims and retarded sight lines


Year after year the F4 produces borderline unwatchable basketball

Two years ago UConn shot 27% from 3, Purdue shot 14%.

Last year:
3PT
UF: 6-24 25%
UH: 6-25 24%

Soi far tonight:
3PT
UM: 1-14 7%
UC: 5-25 21%

Has to be more than a coincidence teams shoot well below their season averages.

The 3 pointer will get you to the Final Four and then the front court closes the deal.

Heck of a game in the paint tonight.

I saw a few X posts about how awesome Indianapolis is for the tournament. Couldn’t think of a more boring city AND in a football dome

I paid for Final Four seats 3 years in advance back in 2016. I thought I would get great seats (I think I paid $600/each). Once I got the seats, they were nosebleeds. Then the 2ndary market were selling better seats at half the cost. A friend ended up giving me great seats6 rows up. Even with those seats it was awful watching in that huge stadium. The court was up higher than the seats, you could not tell how far the baskets were in that cavern. Never again.
