And they count it.  Going to OT tied up @85, CBSSN

[Brian Fantana 6685]

Ohio State down 3 to Rutgers with 10s left.

And they go down.

Wacky Wednesday.  Blue Jays going to kck themselves if they end up losing this, had the lead and ball with .8 left on clock and couldn’t inbound the ball under Marq basket, so MU gets inbound and player catches and shoots/scores a three in .8 to send it to OT.  

[Underdog 28611]

106-104 MU in OT. 

[PittsburghTiger 6178]

Big night at Pitt tonight as the Panthers beat Louisville, 89-86, in OT. Pitt had a 13-point lead, let that slip away with some horrid foul shooting, 16/33.

But the freshman guard tandem of Xavier Johnson and Trey McGowens combined for 54 points, 11 rebounds, 12 assists and just 7 turnovers.

Pitt's first ACC win in 690 days, since Feb. 18, 2017!

The Cincy vs Tulsa game just went into OT and ESPNU left that game to go to their scheduled game of Memphis vs ECU. Where the fuck has that been for every UT game that follows an inevitably long running game?

[spystud13 2371]

You sure you got your channels right? It’s on ESPN2 now, they moved the start of PSU/Neb to ESPNews. 

[spystud13 2371]

Cincy wins. 

[Goo Punch 4275]

Memphis currently down 13 at home to 8-6 ECU.

[PittsburghTiger 6178]

Man, Oregon seems to be a pretty dumb team with a dumb coach. Just let UCLA push game to OT

[spystud13 2371]

Can’t ask for a better look than that. 

[PittsburghTiger 6178]

Down 9 with a minute to go in regulation UCLA steals it in OT. Nice job by the Bartow Bruins.

Crazy to lose on a made basket negated by a charge, but it was a good call.

Also added bonus points for Kelvin Sampson acting like a bitch and faking a heart attack when he learned the call.

I dont keep up with basketball nationally that much but didnt NCAA dole out some harsh penalties that basically made Sampson unhireable???

It was a bizarre last 3 mins of regulation and OT, but wow.  One of the ugliest games we have played and pulled off the road win.

Something like that. I don't remember the specifics.

[Underdog 28611]

Yeah, that UCLA/OU ending was crazy also.  They’re unbeaten since the Alford firing, right?

UO.

Not OU.  I was confused why UCLA and Oklahoma were playing a game in January.

Back when text messaging first started he sent like 200 texts during a no contact period. They threw the book at him and I think he even got a show cause.  That would be a minor violation these days. 

When you think about it, based on the lack of foresight shown by the ncaa in that case alone, the ncaa is completely out of control. He’d be a great hire for any school, unfortunately the ncaa stole his prime earning years from him.

Ohhh yeah the show cause, that was it. I remember thinking "Fuck Kelvin Sampson" and "who cares about text messages" at the same time.

They both suck.

Go Cards!  Off to a good start over the Evil Empire, up 10 at first break. 

[Underdog 28611]

Damn good job, Cards.  

[WhatTheBuck 28776]

Holy shit, surely they didn't just T up that kid from Ole Miss for celebrating making back-to-back threes. 

Oop! Never mind. He was looking at the other bench, not his own. Good call.

Pitt just lost, by five or six, at #15 N.C. State. A frustrating game for the Panthers. Had a lead, lost a lead, fell behind, came back a bit. I think the majority of the ACC schedule will be extremely frustrating, and encouraging. In the win against Louisville the other night we were 16/33 from the line.

Today, hit 24/28, but got clobbered on the boards.

[PittsburghTiger 6178]

I want to turn on the FSU v Duke game, but I just can't listen to Dukie V.

 

I think I'll head in to town to the Duquesne game v St. Joe.

[Underdog 28611]

Ole Miss player walked, double-dribbled all in front of a stripe and no call.

Yep, then drove for a bucket. And the Bulldogs kept playing like idiots on offense. Kind of a disappointing end. 

[Underdog 28611]

Nice win for the Rebs.  

[Underdog 28611]

Nail biter in Tallahassee for Devils/Noles.  

[Underdog 28611]

Nice play and shot for an apparent Duke win.  

[MNLonghornFUKM 8817]

that was text book perfection. wow

[Brian Fantana 6685]

Man fuck Duke

[Brian Fantana 6685]

Just watched the play, what shit defense by FSU, how do you lose Reddish entirely?

[Underdog 28611]

And without Zion for much of the game, got poked in the eye in the first half and never returned although it looked like he could have.

It was phone calls, not texts.  And what really got him in trouble was that even after the NCAA penalty at OU, he kept doing the exact same thing at IU.  He was prohibited from contacting recruits over the phone for a year, so he regularly had an assistant call recruits while he was in the room and talked to them over speaker phone.  And he lied to the NCAA and his AD about it.  

[PittsburghTiger 6178]

Ouch, just home from Duquesne v St. Joe game. In the first half a kid for St. Joe suffered a fractured leg and dislocated knee. First time I’ve been in a building for something that gruesome.

[Goo Punch 4275]

I've posted here before about how high I am on Michigan, and it's all about their defense.



I think Michigan has been as good as any team in the country for the last couple seasons, and when you add an elite defense to a John Beilein offense you have a real contender.

I see Michigan right now at 10/1 to win it all. Make your bets today, and thank me later (with a generous portion of your winnings).

IU with 11 points with under 5 to play in first half vs Nebraska on FS1

[Underdog 28611]

Cuse with a nice comeback after falling behind 12-0 to Duke, currently up 2 late in first half.

Edited January 15, 2019 by Underdog

Orange ends the half with a 3/4 court shot to cut the lead down to one 49-48.

Pitt up 9 with 2:43 to play. It’s our freshmen against #11 FSU.  Building is loud tonight.  Finally 

 

gotta get this one

Suck it, Dook.

Tre Jones is pretty important to Duke.

Did Boeheim piss his pants tonight?
