UNC lost again. 5th game in a row and 6th ACC game in a row.

Roy Williams has been tied with Dean Smith on the all-time wins list since last decade.

Tonight UNC was winning nearly all game and then lost in double overtime. Pure greatness.

If I am Cole Anthony there is no way I attempt to play this season. His injury was not an ACL tear, or something like that, was it?

I have no clue. I just turned it on for a few seconds at: UNC 22 - 24 VTech

Then I watched the last 3 minutes and the two overtimes. I don't know any players on either team. I didn't see any injuries.

 

[Underdog 29184]

What a shame. 

[Underdog 29184]

LMAO @ Memphis...  80-40.  Good Lord, Penny.  

[VirginiaLonghorn 4911]

Shaka is probably the only coach not taking calls from Roy Williams for a game ... what’s the point of soothing UNC’s misery?

I watched Penny in action when Memphis played at WSU. He sat in the timeout huddles and held the clipboard while Mike Miller did all of the coaching. Penny is just the recruiter and bill payer.

You realize UT owns UNC?  It's uncanny actually.

Fully aware of past results. The S3 would be Roy’s savior.

Jeez I watched this at points during the night.  I sure hope Memphis hit the same wall WSU did because holy fuck if not the Shocks play Tulsa in asluT next weekend.  That was a legit dismantling of a damn talented team on their home court.

I'm also starting to think the AAC was way underrated this year.

Wife and I are going to Tulsa for the game next week. I felt pretty good about a quick getaway, easy Shocker win and casino time when I booked the hotel and bought tickets. I'm not so sure now.  The AAC is much better than I thought it would be.

 

[SwanderedTalent 5761]

Ohio State's impression of the 2009-10 Texas team is fucking eerie, like watching Kevin Spacey do his Jack Lemmon impression. 

[Bullneck 19519]

Baylor is #2?

"Baylor must be doing something right."

[4th&Five 42004]

SMU ends game on 15-0 run to take down Memphis on the road. Kendrick Davis (transfer PG from TCU) has been a huge addition for them. 

[Iceman 2978]

so Roy Williams gets win #880

Huggybear is at 876?  I had no idea he was that close.

[ss13 1832]

Dude would have played 30+ minutes for TCU this season too, not sure why he moved on down the road. 

[Blotto 24018]

UCLA changing their approach. Still down 22 in the first half....may need one more.

[Underdog 29184]

LOL.

#5 Noles go down to UVA

[Blotto 24018]

Duke was blowing out Pitt by 17 at Cameron, now its a 3 pt game.(ESPN) w/4 mins to go.

[ss13 1832]

You jinxed it. 

[Underdog 29184]

Auburn/Ole Miss in OT on The U. 

[ss13 1832]

Damn, Tigers were down 19. 

[ss13 1832]

This is not high-quality hooping. 

[ss13 1832]

Auburn wins, wasn’t pretty. 

[Underdog 29184]

UK following up a solid performance in Lubbock with a clusterfuck vs. Vandy in Rupp, a Vandy team that hasn't won an SEC game in over 600+ days.  Also, if they were to ever do another Flash Gordon reboot, Stack would make a good looking Ming The Merciless.  

[mulletpelini 5225]

I can see it.

[Underdog 29184]

The lighting for Tenn Tech is atrocious...  pay your bills! 

[Sbbruin 22143]

Pucker win for the Bruins on national tv vs #20 CU.  Good win.

[Js1 87182]

Another bloodbath day. 8, 10, 14, 18 already lost to unranked teams. #2 down at half.

25 Rutgers goes down too

[Js1 87182]

23. And 11. The people who have to do rankings this season have my thoughts.  

[Underdog 29184]

Too many turnovers, Hagans with a 1:2 assist to turnover rate is not getting it done. 
 

Cincy with a nice comeback win,  UH looked to be firmly in control at one point.

Good lord, so many upsets.

University of Houston player bites a dude lol

 

[Braff Zacklin 13676]

Not seeing it. Even in slow-motion replay, still can't see it. Guess I'm regarded.

[PittsburghTiger 6343]

We just beat Miami and equaled last season's win total. Things are looking up, still a ways to go, but there is hope.

A few good ones tonight. Hopefully the first game, UNC at Florida State, brings more pain for UNC.

Did you end up going?  Good game but everyone in the damn arena knew who was getting that ball at the end.  I swear that's the same kid 2 years ago that took the exact same shot and it rimmed out or they would have won that day too.

[Shoxthemonkey 1993]

Yeah.  Sad drive home.The offense hasn't looked quick since league play started. Nothing has looked confident after the UGone struggle.  How many shot clock violations were there?

End of game plays seem to be Marshall's weakness.

too fucking early

[ss13 1832]

Butler up 1 at home against Nova, :57.5 left on FS1. 

[ss13 1832]

Boom, step-back 20-footer at zeroes for the W! 

[ss13 1832]

Shit, that was a 3. Probably not how they drew it up, but bucket. 

[ss13 1832]

 

 

[ss13 1832]

Holy fuck, Butler was -2.5, that was a 3 by maybe an inch.
