One of those things fits the description, and another is in the ballpark.

Shoot me when NC Central and Coastal Carolina are "opportunities."

 

[Hey Adrien!]

The Memphis/LSU game is a must-watch for me tonight with Wisconsin/Xavier being an interesting warmup and Temple/Georgia a good game to keep tabs on. I have FuboTV, and they have Harvard/UMass on too, so will check that out if Memphis/LSU gets out of hand. I'm home with a stomach bug, so I'm sure I can convince wife that I need to sit in front of the TV for convalescence sake .

On Wednesday, Michigan/Nova is the headliner with Seton Hall/Nebraska on an hour later and Marquette/Indiana as a good matchup.

Basketball on Thursday starts at 11:30 and hoping I'll get an early release with the potential of snow. Alabama/Northeastern at 2 is an interesting game while Valpo/WKU on at 5 are good appetizers for FUSE!!!

On Friday, CCSU will be on CBSSN at 11:30, so it'll be fun to check it out on my lunch break. 2 PM the channel also is playing the Campbell game, which is a chance to watch Chris Clemons for the first time. Hoping UConn gets the later game and will be interesting to see how all of these tournaments shape up the weekend schedule.

Wins by UConn, Mmephis and Temple would go a long way towards putting the conference on the map this year. Losses might bury us forever.

I was referring to UGA and LSU not NCCU

 

[UConnSwag11]

Wisconsin at Xavier. Time to see if Xavier can remain relevant without Mack

I'd bet on it.

They went Pete Gillan to Skip Prosser to Thad Matta to Sean Miller to Chris Mack, barely losing a beat, even when some of those coaches failed in their next spot.

Halftime Update:

Holy Cross 37
Providence 33

 

[Tex-Lager93]

Temple 45
UGA. 34

At the half

 

[HawkHusky]

Memphis looked good vs LSU for the first 16 minutes, but then fell apart in the last 4.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

I'm a huge fan of the Quinton Rose long headband. Temple playing nicely with Rose and Shizz leading the way.

Some young AAC players playing excellently tonight. Pierre-Louis had an incredible reverse layup and-1 and Tyler Harris is shooting lights out against LSU. Tulane freshman and Montverde grad Kevin Zhang scored 27 the other night and is in action tonight.

 

[Tex-Lager93]

College of Charleston up 10 on URI. Beginning of 2nd half. Wisconsin putting it on Xavier.

 

[Drew]

Memphis is going to lose but they played well

 

[polycom]

Uhh Waters is kind of good at basketball

 

[gtcam]

flipping between Memphis and the PeeCee game
Memphis - to me - looks very ragged and underwhelming - if they didn't hit 7 threes in 1st half they would have been buried. Commentators aying how fast Memphis plays but in comparative to UConn, not that fast. thet commit ridiculous fouls.
PeeCee is an enigma but they will get better Cross gave them fits

 

[Drew]

 

[Tex-Lager93]

Temple actively tried to lose via poor inbound...but hung on. Charleston took down URI.

 

[HawkHusky]

Charleston 66
URI 55

Harvard 74
UMass 71

Georgia Southern 98
George Mason 89

AAC is bad this year. A10 is far worse.

Tonight he wasn’t. Bad game.

 

[superjohn]

Tonight he wasn’t. Bad game.

Don't look at shooting numbers, when it was winning time he took the game over.

 

[UConnSwag11]

Akinjo playing vs illinois now

 

[Jimdish255]

Tulane barely hanging on over Coastal by 2 with 40 sec left.
Scoring drought down the stretch.
Coastal ball after timeout.
Audio: Coastal Carolina - Full View
Video probably on CBS all access

Poor f/t shooting by Coastal. Fouling now. Zero FGs over last 5 min for Tulane.
They will hang on, barely.

Just win baby. Dunleavy just lost an NBA player. That program just needs to nurture those young guys. All wins are good at this point.

 

[Wordbomar]

Akinjo playing very good minutes for Ewing. Runs the offense well

This is a fun game.

This is a fun game.

Very back and forth. Can’t help myself but root for OBE teams like GTown and Nova.

Me too, I'll always feel a kinship with those programs. This game is wild.
