  1. Purdue took out USC, so the Big Ten will have no dance crashers. Now if only Clemson will finish off SMU.
  2. What else is new? Dan Hurley getting a technical.
  3. Dear Richard Pitino, We only now understand how very, very, very good you were for us. Will you please please please please please please forgive us and come back? No? Well, just thought we should ask. Sincerely, a lot of unGolden gophers.
  4. Creighton down 11 with 2:12 to go in regulation winds up winning in 2OT against DePaul. If UConn can beat Nova in the upcoming game at MSG, then we can eliminate the Big East from conferences that could have a dance crasher.
  5. Big congrats to the team for pulling this one out after falling behind by 5 in the second OT. I thought we were toast after Mark fouled out in the 2nd OT by bumping Taylor in the same spot Shed did near the end of regulation about 30 feet from the basket. I mean, damn guys. He was 15/16 from the line, so wtf? But do we really need to turn a thread congratulating the team for a great win into a debate about Terry, even if it was kind of invited by the OP? How about let us all throw up a Hook 'em and root for a win tomorrow against a very well rested Tennessee team?
  6. Baylor almost pulled it out. Tech missed a pair of ft with 5.1 seconds left, Baylor ran down, but it was way off with a running three at the buzzer. Tech wins 76-74. Baylor's record isn't very good. It is 5-12 in q1 games, 6-1 in q2, but it has a q3 loss. It is only 3-11 against Pomeroy top 50.
  7. Boise State won by 10. San Diego State no longer looks like a certain bid winner. And could even Baylor be in trouble? It's going down hard against Tech. Iowa is getting clobbered by Illinois. If Purdue can dispatch USC later tonight, then the Big Ten will have no dance crashers.
  8. If the story about preseason practices having a lot of Mark bringing up the ball and triggering the offense, then our early season troubles become a lot more understandable.
  9. Good day just became terrific with Shedrick hitting 10/10 from the line to help us win in double OT. I thought we were doomed when Mark fouled out, but bring on Tennessee. Now, go Kentucky. We may have already passed Indiana, Xavier, and Ohio State, but let's pass OU while we're at it today. Boise State and SDSU are in a one point game midway through the second half.
  10. Marquette pulled it out, so this has been a very good day so far. Just need Texas to play well in the second half and hang on to win.
  11. Xavier up 10 at the half. Thanks, Shaka.
  12. Mississippi woke up, forced a tie with a three point play with 20 seconds to go, Arky missed a pair of ft, and Pedulla hit a three with 1.7 seconds to win it. Arky now back to the 11 line.
  13. Mississippi has been outscored 34-11 over the last 11:50.
  14. Indiana crumbling late. Oregon on a 9-0 run to take a 65-54 lead with 2:13 left. IU finally got a score. 65-56 with 1:57 left. Oregon now out of timeouts. Arky down 8 at the half. Beard is somewhat notorious for tanking conference tournaments, btw.
  15. Maybe one team could lose by 20 and the other team be forced to expel 80% of the roster after the game for gambling or other malfeasances.
  16. Other things we want to see happen include VCU winning the A-10, Memphis winning the AAC, and UC San Diego winning the Big West.
  17. Texas has to win today, and here are other games involving bubble teams. Boldfaced team is the one Texas wants to lose. Indiana/Oregon 11 a.m Marquette/Xavier 1:30 UNC/Wake Forest 1:30 (but both losing would be ideal) Arkansas/Mississippi 12:00 SMU/Clemson 8:30 Boise State/San Diego State 4:30 (again, both losing would be ideal) Nevada/Colorado State 8:00 OU/Kentucky 8:30 UConn/Nova 8:30
  18. Georgia melting down late against OU. Now down 10 with 2:45 left. Too many dumb three attempts over the last 3 minutes.
  19. He's the weakest starter, but he's far and away the best option we have at the five, so it's not his fault we don't have a better player to eat up minutes at his position. I spend a lot of games worried about him going to the bench with fouls and wondering if Onyema and Kent will give us anything.
  20. Shedrick was a rebound and rim protect guy at UVa, but Bennett wanted to go to a 5 who could play perimeter offense, but he really wasn't that good at it, so he stuck Shedrick in at the end and got some good results. Shedrick might have been a decent player had it not been for his shoulder surgeries. Might have been. I think he gets more s*** than he deserves because he has never been truly healthy here, but damn his hands are bad.
  21. De nada. Almost all the other guys who left the NBA and took college gigs were actually fired from their NBA gig. I'm talking Calipari, Hoiberg, Musselman, Kruger here.
  22. Not at all a surprise, but UVa announced within an hour of its loss to Ga Tech today that it would not give the job to Sanchez. I read an article stating the AD has 5 finalists--Odom, Smart, Otz (ain't happening), McCollum, and Bob Richey. If you don't recognize the last name, I am not surprised. He's the Furman coach who beat UVa in the first round a couple of years ago.
  23. Yeah, but Texas is 3-4 in q2 and UNC is 7-0. Texas is -4 in q1-q3. UNC is +2. Both need to win tomorrow, and both should hope OU and Indiana lose soon.
  24. Ohio State just lost to Iowa. Our window just got a little more open.
