Not that hard to believe. The Big 12 is tough. Arky hasn't played anyone.

Merry Christmas to me!

My husband left with the kids yesterday to go skiing and I’ll fly up tomorrow after watching my bears crush Villanova today in courtside seats!

Even if we lose, I win escaping a 15 hour car ride with my five angels!

[Underdog 29102]

That should be a good one.

I have the 1 month old by myself today, or I’d be there.  Frustrating one to miss.

That’s the perfect age to bring one! I would offer to take a shift holding but my courtside seats might be kind of dangerous for a newborn. /humblebrag

U16, 8-4 BU. 

[El Diablo 4232]

U12, 12-4 BU

[Newdoc 3508]

Villanova looks slow.

[Trey3216 15450]

Iowa St/Jackson St combine for 84 points.   That’s some January Big 10 bullshit.  

[El Diablo 4232]

U8, 15-9 BU

[El Diablo 4232]

25-9, TO Nova

3:01 to play 1st half

[El Diablo 4232]

25-15, Nova heating up with the 3 ball. 1:00 to play.

[Underdog 29102]

Nova is an early season FF pick for me but they look like shit, Bears having something to do with that.

Neither team looks particularly sharp, Baylor's playing a little bit better. That last 3 minutes was not the way to end the half if you're a Bear. 

[El Diablo 4232]

29-19 BU, U16 

Baylor flirting with foul trouble. 

[Brian Fantana 6856]

Baylor is the only team in the top 10 I'm even close to sold on for any kind of pick.

e: Actually the top 25 in general.

35-22 U12. Lot of action.

[Brian Fantana 6856]

Villanova, 78 ppg, plays a Big 12 defense, on pace to score a little over 30. Seems about right.

I wonder if Beard regrets teaching Drew the no middle

'Nova has essentially 4 seniors in their starting 5, very experienced team. 

[El Diablo 4232]

4:32 47-29 BU.

[twosheds 378]

Absolute domination by the bears today

[El Diablo 4232]

50-31, BU crushing it. 

[harpercollins 394]

Our defense is stifling. Total dominance.

Disappointed in offense especially offensive boards. Haven’t looked at the stats but seemed not good.

[Brian Fantana 6856]

"Overrated" chant, absolute clownery.

We set the sport back 5 decades today, but as let down games go, I'll take it. As brutal as our offense was, our defense still game through.

[harpercollins 394]

Ok whatever mild crush I had on jay Wright is dead. Incessant bitching to refs and fouling down by twenty?? Embarrassing.

[Brian Fantana 6856]

Lol @ Nova desperately trying to pad their PPG a little down 20

No kidding. Man, our kids need to learn how to win with some class.

Yeah, this isn't last year's team. Offense is still a work in progress. 

[Al_4_ISU 12612]

ISU/Baylor could legitimately end with less points than the football game had.

For the record, I see us losing that game. We are Dollar General Baylor. I mean that as a compliment to both us and Baylor.

[Braff Zacklin 13675]

Big 12 games are going to be races to 50 this season, with many teams unable to get there. Brutal, brutal league.

 

(On that note, nice to see the Fighting Als back in form. Getting a W at Hilton promises to be a major feat once again.)

I always look forward to the rumbles with West Virginia, where both teams run 40-45 total  fouls in 40 minutes.

[PorscheGuy 127]

Yeah, this isn't last year's team. Offense is still a work in progress. 

Good news is that Flagler can get his shot anytime he wants. Also, Kendall Brown has unlimited potential. Dude could be really special.

It all comes down to if Mayer and Akinjo can play within themselves for the betterment of the team or if they manage to fuck it up. More worried about Mayer. But CSD seams to have a quick trigger on pulling him as evident in the Villanova game.

Tech is possibly down 2 guards vs. Gonzaga which is not ideal, one of them being TJ Shannon. Might be an ugly game if they both can't go.

[DeadArmadillo 907]

Zags v Red Raiders at noon Central Time, not on ESPN or ABC, but on big CBS

TJ Shannon is expected to play

Tech has one good big to try to counter Timme and Holmgren.  About a 8-9 point dog. We'll see how it goes

It's a neutral site game in Phoenix at the Sun's arena

Should be lots of Red Raiders there as a lot of us end up in the Valley of the Sun or are going as an excuse to get to a warm area to play golf and such

[Brian Fantana 6856]

Think a lot depends on how physically we're allowed to defend. If there are lots of ticky tack fouls I don't have much hope.

[Brian Fantana 6856]

Doesn't look like Shannon is gonna play. Pretty yikes for us.

[El Diablo 4232]

Baylor's an 8 pt favorite on the road at Oregon Ducks tonight. Game tips at 9pm CST on ESPN2. 

Kinda wondering how long before we start seeing games affected by the 'VID this year. 

[Brian Fantana 6856]

We don't match up well against this Gonzaga team, need to start getting some better looks.

[Brian Fantana 6856]

Man it's amazing what being down a couple of guards will do to your team. All that depth just seems like it becomes nothing.

[Brian Fantana 6856]

Well shit considering we missed 5 point blank shots and went 33% from the FT line, I'll take just being down 8 at the half.

[Guest]

Tech missing way too many layups/ point blank shots.

The flop warning was total bullshit, but that's not controllable.  Make the easy shots!

[Brian Fantana 6856]

I don't think we have the horses to win this without Shannon playing, but it's nice to see us playing pretty well without him. We've done a great job neutralizing Timme and Holmgren, but they're uncharacteristically hot from 3, not much you can do about that.

[Guest]

Yep and the Zags hit 13 3's.  They definitely had the better team today.

 

[Brian Fantana 6856]

Would have loved to have won that of course, but there wasn't much hope from the beginning without Shannon.

Really liked how we neutralized Timme and Holmgren on the offensive end.

This team will be pretty good in a month or so.

Should be good for Waco as a whole.  Maybe we can get some halfway decent concerts here now.
