NCAA Hoops 2021-22

Sasser is done for the season. That's a massive loss for UH. He's one of the best players in the country. 

 

[ztejas 43526]

Wow. That could really open up the AAC.

[Underdog 28765]

MSU Dawgs up 15 on Arkansas late 2H, good matchup with Vols/Tide later on tonight.  Will be interesting to see if UT keeps momentum from their win over Zona or if Bama can regroup after losing to Davidson.

Bama running the ole Shaka Smart jack up bad three offense. Luckily if they’re hitting the rim

and Tennessee is without their best player (Chandler) and their senior leader (Fulkerson). Bama should be handling the Vols at home. kind of expecting Bama to pull away in the 2H, but they already should have established a nice lead, so who knows. 

[shadow_operative 15932]

this is a Rick Barnes coaching clinic right now. the offensive rebounding, the pressure in transition, the big man who's ahead on the break looking over his shoulder and slowing down to set a screen and open up the floor- it looks exactly like so many of his Texas teams, and you can see that his players are well drilled. Bama should be winning this game, but they're playing weak, looking for fouls, and taking stupid shots. this is Barnes beating Oats right now. 

[shadow_operative 15932]

Tennessee needs for Quinerly to get his fourth foul or he's going to take uber. 

[shadow_operative 15932]

kinda surprised Oats hasn't gotten himself T'd up. not that he's done anything to deserve a T, but he's clearly pissed at the officials and hasn't stopped barking at them all half. 

[shadow_operative 15932]

lol, Nate Oats chews out the officials for like two straight minutes and Bama gets four, count 'em, four quick foul calls. 

[shadow_operative 15932]

LMAO, college refs are such cowards.

Tennessee had 4 fouls at 11:33 when they returned from the U12. 70 seconds later they have 8 team fouls. fuck college officials. just taking over games

[shadow_operative 15932]

another home court call for Bama there, but if Tennessee wasn't horrid from deep tonight it wouldn't matter. can't miss as many wide open good looks as they have and expect to win on the road. 

[shadow_operative 15932]

Tennessee and Bama tied at 65 with 1:26 left. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

This is going to be a wild conference season with players missing games due to Covid. 

Two big games last night Alabama vs Tennessee and Seton Hall and Providence influenced by players missing those games. With there already being so much parity and now the randomness of players missing games I expect a lot of teams in the major conferences to trade wins and losses.

Bama isn't very good. That's been evident for a few weeks now. 

Luckily for them they get a quality win because of Covid issues with Tennessee.

Tubby and High Point at UK tomorrow, would be a great opp for UK to hang a banner in honor of Tubby.  Make it happen, Mitch!

Fun game in West Lafayette. Wisky upsets Purdue 

[Js1 85492]

LOL Kentucky. 20-2 run given up 

[Js1 85492]

Vanderbilt beat Arkansas. Really disappointed in Arky and Alabama.

[texasstrong12 4668]

Arkansas was #90 in NET before this game. That's a terrible loss at home. 

They probably aren't even a tournament team at this point. Kind of a huge game for them on Saturday @ aggy. 

[ztejas 43526]

Yeah but the SEC is one of the best conferences in the country along with the B12 according to the ESPN halftime desk.

[texasstrong12 4668]

The aggy basketball schedule is just insanely awful. 

They play Arkansas on Saturday and that will be 15 games into the season where they haven't played a single Kenpom top 30 team and only 1 Kenpom top 50 team. That's insane for a P5 team and totally aggy the way they try to stack wins.

Thought for sure these two would be the crème of the crop in the SEC, they may still but have work to do.

I’m glad we got Beard instead of Oates or Muss 

[texasstrong12 4668]

Arkansas is #94 in NET now. Another bad loss to aggy on Saturday and their tournament hopes are getting close to dead. 

That would also have them at 0-3 in the SEC.

It's now starting to make more sense why OU beat them earlier in the year. 

[Sbbruin 21866]

UCLA came out of covid hiding a little over a week ago, and have had their first 3 games (UofA, ASU, and Stanford) cancelled due to covid issues with the other team.  Finally had to resort to playing Long Beach St tonight (for the 2nd time) just to get a game of some kind in.  It's been a month since we've played.

[texasstrong12 4668]

Is the Pac really going to be a 3 bid league this year? 

It's really looking that way with just Arizona, UCLA and USC. That's awful in a 12 team power conference.

Over Oldmanchero of Duke?  FOH with that nonsense.

[redswingline 1057]

Figured I'd watch  Columbia @ Pennsylvania. Holy fuck I'm never gonna get that hour back.

What a horrid game.

[Brian Fantana 6690]

Tennessee getting spanked by LSU right now. That team is really hot.

Tom Crean: DWade isn’t walking through that door, may want to start thinking about going back to doing studio work, where he was excellent btw. 

[PittsburghTiger 6194]

Miami just beat Duke, at Duke.

I had a couple interactions with Tom Crean when he was at Pitt and he was one of the biggest jagoffs I ever had to deal with. 

Auburn pulling away from Florida, at AU. I should have driven over last week for the LSU at AU game when I was down in Atlanta for the Peach Bowl.

What a day

Texas drops to OSU

KU goes down to Tech

ISU down to OU

Alabama loses to Mizzou

Duke loses 

CSU blown out by SDSU

Tenn downed by LSU

[Underdog 28765]

This close to switching from this BYU/St Mary’s game and watch my copy of the Roseanne Barr/Tom Arnold sextape...  Brutal. 

[Underdog 28765]

Cincy/Memphis going down to the wire, Cincy with a horrible turnover that may have just clinched their defeat.  Really dig that Memphis court. 

[redswingline 1057]

I tried watching Washington vs. Colorado and started to fall asleep so I changed it. Boring AF.

Most of these teams have the same thing in common. They piled up wins but almost all of were at home. Once they get a true road game vs. a good team, they lose.

Miami was the only road win in that group. They were rolling before that game, though. I didn't see how on earth they were +15.5.

That and there's parity across the board. I've been saying all year the top 25 is a mess.

Arkansas won't even sniff the tournament. They're terrible and down to #93 in NET. 

[Brian Fantana 6690]

Not gonna lie, listening to Bill Walton argue incessantly with his co-commentator and just generally be a boomer is pretty hilarious.

Stanford is horrible, I don't know how this game is so close.

[Brian Fantana 6690]

Either one of these teams would get killed by any top half Big 12 team.

Stanford isn't great but they have drastically improved in recent weeks. 

Win over Wyoming (#33 NET), Liberty (#114 NET), and now USC (#12 NET). Good news for Texas fans. 

[Brian Fantana 6690]

USC should not even be in the top 25 but I guess it looks good on paper

They may be a top 25 team, but they were certainly frauds with the schedule they've had.  And got exposed.  

These clowns actually gave out rings and hung a banner for making the Elite 8.  To go next to their "appearance" banner. Participation ribbon if ever there was.

We've only hung Chip banners, but word is we are in fact going to have a single banner for the numerous FF appearances.  They should be recognized.

Absolutely you should. It'd be a cool look.
