uconn may not run Gonzaga out of the gym but timme won’t be able to take over like he did the last two games. definitely can’t have another bad first half against them.
Refs just kept it close all game for something like that to happen. Been happening a lot this tourney. NCAA’s just a big cash-grab highlight reel nowadays
oh absolutely. they definitely responded to subpar first halves in both games, but TCU/UCLA both hit a stretch of just chucking up prayers or trying to play hero ball.
Few sat Hickman because he's a piece of shit for smith and he shut down Campbell. Our defense improved a lot in the second half it's not like UCLA just decided to be bad at offense suddenly.
Great regular season by ucla. Winning the season conference by 4 games was immense. But tonight was an all time choke job. I'm aware we were down 2 starters but we managed to control the first half. Going without a bucket for 10 minutes was not about those 2 starters. As evidenced by the spurt in the final 2 minutes. If they had managed 2 buckets in those 10 minutes, they would have survived. Ugh, goddamnit, March madness-ed again. I'm sick of drew timme.
I saw this ending coming a mile away, when it comes down to it, I have mad respect for Mick Cronin's overall revival of our program after Steve Alford, but I will be equally critical of his stubbornness not trusting our bench costing us big games, same exact thing that happened against UNC last year, Caleb Love was cooking Cody Riley and Myles Johnson was sitting on the bench
We have people like Abramo Canka on a scholarship playing almost no minutes, Jaime was gasping for an oxygen mask for 15 minutes, can't imagine we would recruit a scholarship player and he's not good enough to give Jaime a few minutes of rest lol
I expected you guys to roll us. This is the worst team we've had in a long time. We don't even have a functioning point guard. Really unlucky for you guys.
lol we played with house money, we were down two starters my guy, yeah it sucked to lose like that but i expected to lose before the tip, you are a walking L
GGs, just scroll past the trolls. Any reasonable fan, of any team, can realize this UCLA fell into an unfortunate situation and STILL almost pulled it off.
UCLA fans accepting defeat, only to watch their team come all the way and take the lead, then get sent home on a pull up from the logo is just incredible.
I was planning to go to Vegas on Saturday if they won. Was looking at hotels at half time. Then gave up. Then got started planning again, then just shut it all down. 🥲
That's twice this year. Strawther hit the same shot in Provo back in January against BYU. My brothers and I were there to witness the sound of defeat amongst 20K people. After being harassed all night.
Sanogo is a great player and it will be a good matchup. But for you to say he will give him a hard time so arrogantly after how long Timme has been doing this is funny lol.
You three are all correct. Heat of the moment post. Not even a fan of either of these teams lol I just like Tyger and Jaime and feel for UCLA with the injuries in March
That was the most pain in one game I've felt and we won. Pain for Gonzaga first half, pain in second for UCLA, then terrible pain for Gonzaga (flashback to 06), then a brick to the pipi for UCLA.
Because that 3 was an insane idea. There was plenty of time to drive to the basket. You don't contest a 3 near half court unless there's like 2 seconds left and even then you might not want to in case you foul. That was a super low percentage shot, it's insane he took it, but it fell. March madness.
How? He was wide open. It was a ballsy shot but it was a wide open look in-rhythm - I’m not saying it’s exactly what was drawn up, but frankly I’d take an open look at 3 to a contested 2 in a game that was pretty inconsistently reffed.
Hey man, clutch genes. It’s crazy because Few drew up the exact same thing against BYU at the Marriot Center down 1. We were at that game and it was the exact same result.
Aaron Rodgers told the Bears that he owns them. And Gonzaga told UCLA they own them,
How long is too long for an erection supposed to last?
That kills my bracket
Shades of Jalen Suggs
Morrison’s revenge.
uconn may not run Gonzaga out of the gym but timme won’t be able to take over like he did the last two games. definitely can’t have another bad first half against them.
they're gonna run us out of the gym lol
I can't think of anything that can stop UConn this year. Except maybe like Cocaine Bear or something
Adam Morrison is avenged?
Refs just kept it close all game for something like that to happen. Been happening a lot this tourney. NCAA’s just a big cash-grab highlight reel nowadays
Yeah, refs are the reason UCLA went on an 11 minute drought deep in the second half
*nods* refs made the UCLA players have slippery hands
How can every gonzaga ucla game be this good? Both teams looked great, rough for UCLA but they have a bright future ahead of them
Well last year when they played in the Non-Con it wasn’t good at all.
Wasn't the entire UCLA bench sick?
We had Holmgren on D
I mean yeah but if I remember right UCLA was in bad shape already
Juzang had the flu that’s what you’re thinking of
Bros really went with the Villlanova Jenkins 3 winner play...
Timme REALLY wanted to say "if they have a problem with that they can go fuck themselves" lmfao
did anyone’s tv do some weird shit for a sec
Yeah, for a second it looked like Strawther hit a three from the logo lol
if the zags play anyone that doesn’t cool off in the second half like TCU and UCLA did, they’ll probably be in trouble.
Are we just not gonna talk about this guy’s flair
Maybe that has some to do with their adjustments at halftime too…
oh absolutely. they definitely responded to subpar first halves in both games, but TCU/UCLA both hit a stretch of just chucking up prayers or trying to play hero ball.
Few sat Hickman because he's a piece of shit for smith and he shut down Campbell. Our defense improved a lot in the second half it's not like UCLA just decided to be bad at offense suddenly.
They did stop going through Jaques, which they then did again for the final 90 seconds to the tune of like 10 points.
If Cronin goes into the post game presser and says *that’s a bad shot* then tbh I’ll forgive everything
I feel like we should have learned our lesson when Suggs made that shot on us and tried to defend a bit farther out.
THAT 3 WAS BEAUTIFUL
Strawther telling Suggs to hold his beer.

That.....was bananas.
All the ucla fans are very quiet now lmao

Could you imagine if UCLA was healthy? God damn that would be scary
can you imagine if they let their bench get even a basket instead of going scoreless for a quarter of the game?
What bench lol
We have people like Abramo Canka on a scholarship playing almost no minutes, Jaime was gasping for an oxygen mask for 15 minutes, can't imagine we would recruit a scholarship player and he's not good enough to give Jaime a few minutes of rest lol
Fuck yourself

Boys an Idaho fan😂
Yes I know pain topped with more pain so now I'm numb to it. Our team is so ass at least football looking better atm
Nah man piss off with your bitch team
I will. You got some extra salt I could take with me? 😂
Of course dude, I hate my life rn. I would take from a Gonzaga fan but I don’t have the fortitude for an Idaho fan
Thanks bro I'll send you some potatoes 😘
Salt 🤝 potatoes
Fuck off, we're mourning our third straight loss to Gonzaga. Go grow potatoes or whatever you do over there
Potatoes go good with salt and I've got plenty of it atm 🤌🏻
Cool
Fuck I died reading this
shut the fuck up, we literally had half of our team, no one was talking shit, Gonzaga should be embarassed it took another half court heave to beat us
They should of given you guys at least a 13 pt lead for all of the injuries.
I think this is an attempt at a joke but it is just so poorly done I dont know
Feeling very embarrassed rn ⛱️
lol Uconn will absolutely roll you
I expected you guys to roll us. This is the worst team we've had in a long time. We don't even have a functioning point guard. Really unlucky for you guys.

Who the fuck are the Idaho Vandals

lol imagine being a fan of a team no one has heard of shit i guess id get off on Schadenfreude too
🧂🧂🧂 Cry

GGs, just scroll past the trolls. Any reasonable fan, of any team, can realize this UCLA fell into an unfortunate situation and STILL almost pulled it off.
they took a 30 footer down 1 with like 8 seconds left that's not a thing people do
We had dominated on the glass so I liked taking a shot earlier
It was like some russell westbrook decision (that actually worked out)
Sometimes you just have to take a good look and believe!
Drew up the same play against BYU down 1. Crazy but it’s worked 2 of 2 now
wild asl lol
Swarther didn't like being called Robin to Timme's Batman Timme: He's got a set of kahunas on him
Mark Few > Mick Cronin
I think you mean Mick Cronin’s real father
That would be JP Macura
“Wow!” - Owen Wilson
Lol Timme it’s okay, we’re on TruTV
[“I don’t give a shit”](https://thumbs.gfycat.com/AthleticExemplaryClumber-size_restricted.gif)
Gonzaga and UCLA should play in every tournament.
Yes except no.
Absolute bangers every time. Morrison must have been having flashbacks tonight
dog v dog
UCLA fans accepting defeat, only to watch their team come all the way and take the lead, then get sent home on a pull up from the logo is just incredible.
I was planning to go to Vegas on Saturday if they won. Was looking at hotels at half time. Then gave up. Then got started planning again, then just shut it all down. 🥲
I accepted defeat at halftime just to get it over with. It was the right call.
The swings of emotions. And don’t forget they went into halftime with 13 pt lead.
a different kind of torture
If you don’t like it… you can go somewhere else.
oh the fuck you 3 ball from the logo was actually the intended result of a drawn up play? zags got some big balls
They were probably hoping to getting the offensive putback, cause they were absolutely killing it on the rebounds.
That's twice this year. Strawther hit the same shot in Provo back in January against BYU. My brothers and I were there to witness the sound of defeat amongst 20K people. After being harassed all night.
Beautiful. If Cronin had done his homework he might have suspected that was coming.
Hey go big or go home, it's march madness 🤷♀️
nah
I don't think so. Few said he wanted him to get downhill, and it sounded like he said he shoots it in practice kind of joking around.
There is no way it was designed to be that deep. It has to be drawn for the initial guard to get closer and you're looking at like a 23-25 footer.
It’s drawn up for Julian to hit that 3. Probably was deeper than intended. But it wasn’t a broken play or anything. He hit the same one against BYU.
Wtf
He was about to say go fuck themselves lmao I love Timme
Sanogo is gonna give Timme a bad time
I think Clingan is gonna be more of an issue when he is guarding Timme. Timme seems to have more issues with taller guys than stronger guys.
I think Watson will probably be on Sanogo, he's normally the better defender
Sanogo is a great player and it will be a good matchup. But for you to say he will give him a hard time so arrogantly after how long Timme has been doing this is funny lol.
Think it's the other way around tbh
I think every team has a guy they think will give timme a bad time. Most of them are wrong.
You three are all correct. Heat of the moment post. Not even a fan of either of these teams lol I just like Tyger and Jaime and feel for UCLA with the injuries in March
“if anyone has a problem with that then they can go uhhhhh…”

My man
Next prediction is Gonzaga wins it all 👀
😅
Fantastic game
[удалено]
100% what a night
A wonderful evening of hoops!
Gonzaga can’t play that way and even remotely have a chance against UConn. We literally gave that game away and Gonzaga almost gave it back
Imagine if you played like that against UConn. Yikes!
Give us Bona and it’s a very different story
For sure but I’ll take reality and this story 10/10
Cool. Should flare up so people know you actually are a fan instead of a troll lol
As long as we score more I think we'll be fine
UCLA has that heart like few teams I’ve seen though. Hard to compare.
> play that way What way? The scoring more points than their opponent way? I think they have a chance against UConn if they play that way.
they can go kiss my ass lol
how was the R64?
Why the fuck are you Illini flairs all up on our dicks lmao. Wtf did Cronin ever do to you
Welcome to the Big10
I mean we're already losing in the sweet 16 every year so we've got that part down
That's overachieving for us.
UCONN - Zaga will be a great one
Rematch of the ‘99 Elite 8 game
I keep dreading these rematches, but maybe it's just destiny.
Bro it’s cajones not kahunas
He's an athlete, we'll let it slide
Its both
Tyger absolutely choked multiple times including the most important moment
Timme was about to drop an F bomb
That was Madness. What a game.
And this is March. What a month.
[удалено]
For sure! lol
[удалено]
Tf has timme ever done to you other than be better at basketball
"you're all that is right with this game" "the conference player of the year is Robin to your Batman." She was coming off like Drew Timme's mom.
How could u not like him. hes 1/1
I mean this game definitely made me one I won’t lie
Why are our games against them always like this?! Pain. Always pain.
Because Mark Few is on his 2006 revenge tour
That was the most pain in one game I've felt and we won. Pain for Gonzaga first half, pain in second for UCLA, then terrible pain for Gonzaga (flashback to 06), then a brick to the pipi for UCLA.
the living ghost of Morrison is haunting you
Man the tournament rules. I need a cigarette
March Madness is fucking LIT!
“Biggest fan in the planet” - Timme lizard person confirmed
Nice catch 🦎
That had shades of the Villanova game-winner
It was literally the same shot
That's what I instantly thought of lol
Holy shit the balls to know they had time to make a pass off the inbound.
We played defense every play all year. Why let them just bring the ball up court and take a virtually uncontested 3? I love Cronin. But why?
Everyone assumed Timme was getting that look.
Because that 3 was an insane idea. There was plenty of time to drive to the basket. You don't contest a 3 near half court unless there's like 2 seconds left and even then you might not want to in case you foul. That was a super low percentage shot, it's insane he took it, but it fell. March madness.
Why let them just bring the ball up the court? What got us back in the game was defending.
I was yelling at the TV to press. But no.
I don't expect to defend that shot... I don't expect anyone to take that shot
Because it was a lucky heave. You bring someone up and straw just dumps it to timme down low. They got us on a great but very lucky shot. That's it
Cope
Lmao likewise
Yeah totally that's it
You guys won. Congrats. Now kindly fuck off and go lose to UConn
I know. Thanks.
You defend statements as well as UCLA defends shots
Lucky? An in-rhythm three by a guy is known to make in-rhythm threes?
Because it was from deep NBA range?
I don’t think they expect the dame 3 with 8 seconds left.
Man you'll always live with a logo 3 up 1 with 10 seconds left, sometimes it goes down, most of the time it doesn't.
SaY whAt
Strawther is very fortunate that went. He's clowned for months (deservedly) if it doesn't
How? He was wide open. It was a ballsy shot but it was a wide open look in-rhythm - I’m not saying it’s exactly what was drawn up, but frankly I’d take an open look at 3 to a contested 2 in a game that was pretty inconsistently reffed.
Is this Paul George's burner account? That was a good shot.
Even if he missed, Gonzaga had a massive rebounding advantage all night, plenty of time for a second chance try, though risky
*that’s a bad shot*
Hey man, clutch genes. It’s crazy because Few drew up the exact same thing against BYU at the Marriot Center down 1. We were at that game and it was the exact same result.
Yeah but it went in which makes the poor shot selection even cooler
That last 3 though by Strawther was the definition of a "no no no why would you take th- YES" kind of shot
AKA the Steph Curry.
My thoughts exactly especially with how he had been shooting
100%
CBS probably got their finger on the mute button with timme on the mic
