Miami with a big neutral court win over Temple in Brooklyn.

Temple totally blew that too. Up 1 NPL shooting a 1-1, misses the front end then fouls a Miami kid on a bad pump fake. Miami guy drills both for the 1 point W.

Syracuse struggling with Oakland

 

[nelsonmuntz]

The SEC is having a rough night.

 

[Tex-Lager93]

St Mary’s up on Arizona St, 51-19 at the half. Is that a typo? Jeez.

 

[Tex-Lager93]

ETSU, enjoy your run. No way Steve Forbes is there next year. Dude can just flat out coach.

 

[FatHank]

The SEC has bubbled up out of football stardom into a bit of a basketball presence early this season but I'm not sure they can sustain it. I find it interesting to watch a football conference scatter the AP hoops top 25.

 

[Jaker]

Zags abusing UNC

 

[Dogman69]

Tuned into Utah/Kentucky. Bill Walton is startling my dog making animal noises when Utah scores.

St. Mary’s isn’t bad, but yea definitely an ugly loss for ASU. Weird season for Bobby’s team, it’s like they figure it out one game and then regress the next...reminds me of another Jersey native who sees the expectations of his team change week to week (thankfully I really don’t see us getting clobbered like ASU did...knock on wood). Maybe both brothers will get some words of wisdom from their HOF father on Christmas.

Bill needs to be set off to the moon to follow his thoughts; The Mandalorian code does not allow him to be brought back and we shall never send a ship to see him return.

Utes up 9 with 15 to go. I hope the score holds and Bill's ship sails.

 

[UconnFanNVa]

Nice to see uk lose! Walton is horrible!

Squid has Ohio State and Louisville coming up. He could head into conference play with a 9-4 record and only one quality win, and it isn't like the SEC provides a lot of quality opponents.

Kentucky looked awful, that Utah team is bad and their point guard looks like he's 10 years old. I can't remember a year with so few good teams.

I've always liked Walton but he was unbelievably annoying last night.

They can lose both of those and still be ranked I bet smh

 

[UconnU]

Is this ASU box score accurate? 43 of their 56 points were scored by one kid off the bench? lol.

Cincy's issue is shooting woes. If they get back to shooting a halfway decent % they'll be tough to beat. Much improved scoring inside. That said, i see looking at box that the frosh Adams-Wood started. I had a few Syracuse work contacts say they missed getting him and it was a mistake. It looks like they're right.

That kid Alonzo Verge was recruited by Providence out of HS - he was Mr Chicago and Illinois AllState but had some academic issues - went JUCO and led nation JUCOs (as I remember) in scoring his 2nd year - ASU grabbed him this past summer
Crazy stat though - 75% of their total points - like Wilt!!!

 

[ucawn]

Tulane beat Utah...

 

[SoFla Steve]

Seton Hall, without Myles Powell and Sandro Mamukelashvili, leading #7 Maryland at the half, 27-18.
