College Basketball Discussion 11.13-11.19

SMU may be the worst team in the conference this year.

 

[StunningSteve]

Great win for the conference! SDSU is a lock for the tourney.

 

[HawkHusky]

Last year the AAC had great teams and horrible teams. Seems like this year could be all good/mediocre. Conference play should be interesting.

Maui on today

Good game between auburn and xavier

That Auburn guard , Jared Harper, is Marlo from the Wire disguised as a college player. Identical.

Arizona plays tonight too against a 3-0 Iowa State team - we have Zona at home in a few weeks.

Go 'cats. A win tonight should get them ranked just in time for us to beat them on 12/2.

Interesting progression, when factoring in Next year will most likely bring elite caliber recruits (including 1&dones) at the two top recruiting schools.
It will also be year 1 for McKie, year 2 for Dooley, year 3 for Gregory, and year 4 for Dunleavy..

I want Cal to beat SJU

Zona down 4 to ISU

I want Cal to beat SJU

During intermission of this Barclays Center game, Fran F was talking from his seat on the floor and someone directly behind took a UConn tshirt and waved to the ESPN2 camera. Anyone see it?

Zona down 4 to ISU

Guy throws an air ball and Walton says "aw just missed"

Arizona reminds me of us without the tight D. And no Cobb. He should be able to operate if we can hit a couple of 3's. We'll be a slightly different team by then.

 

[Jimdish255]

So. AZ wins by 5. Should be a good game for us. They'll be favored.
Bobby Hurley and AZ State up next.

 

[Jaker]

classic walton

RJ Berrett might be the best college frosh i have seen in a long time

Just the way ESPN is so damn giddy over this Duke team is annoying as hell. Can't even watch Sportcenter when they are playing and after they play. The build up to Maui this year was relentlessly painful.

 

[Wordbomar]

Great win by Zona last night! Hope they are ranked when they get to XL in a couple weeks!

 

[UConnStats]

Hope they are ranked, but honestly, beating Iowa State last night didn’t mean much. They were missing their best player (Wigginton) and only had 8 players healthy. That’s still a team we should beat at home.

Correct - ISU was missing 4 players who contribute a lot 2 injured and 2 suspended
Zona is not the Zona of past but still skilled enough to cause issues
Not going to be easy - that's for sure

 

[Slasher]

I'm glad UCF won. It's possible sneaks into the RPI Top 50 by years' end, but by no means assured, and a loss would look bad. WKU got smoked by the only other low end Top 35 team they played.

RPI is irrelevant now.

They’re always giddy about every Duke team. It’s nauseating. I know I’ll probably eat crow on this comment, but I still feel like it’s a faulty formula - these kids will have eyes on the NBA come tournament time - and will stumble before the championship game.

You're right. I should have said NET.
