December: Other NCAA Games

[jibsey]

Then he puts up a mid court three with 4 seconds left.

That was ridiculous. Are they not coached to count in their heads? It happens to us too getting a bad shot but 4 seconds is a lot.

Nothing about that shot made sense - for PG to heave it up makes it even worse. Felt very Roscoe Smith, brain fart to the point it seemed he lost track of how much time there was and was in just get it off mindset.

Four of the 10 worst major conference teams are former Big East teams. Unfortunately, one is currently in the Big East.

I count five.

And of course, six are currently in the ACC! I was so hung up on the misfortunes of schools that left the conference that I didn’t even realize how ACC-heavy the list was.

I count five.

Boston College
Virginia Tech
Miami
Syracuse

Seems to be 4 unless I'm missing something. All 4 currently in the watered down ACC.

There was a time (two decades ago) when half of that list (BC, Seton Hall, Syracuse, Miami & Va Tech) was slightly more than 1/3 of the old Big East.

I remember Va Tech football but the Big East era of hoops is a big blur, I don't remember any games, players, or coaches

They were only around for hoops for four years. The first three were forgettable and awful. Seth Greenberg coached the final year and got them into the BET.

@kobe ...Cincy loses on the road to a so so K State team. They were ranked 16th coming into the game, with one quality win (neutral win against Dayton) and now losses to Nova and K State. No way should they be ranked.

Coleman Hawkins finally earning his $2 million NIL check with 20 points and 10 rebounds tonight.

They will sink like a stone now that they are no longer playing Nicholls, Grambling and Arkansas Pine Bluff. But hey, at least @kobe will get to root for the real teams in the Big 12 that make the grown up tournament at the end of the year.

This game is hard to watch. Iowa State seems very overrated, and both teams are kind of meh.

Ended up winning by almost 10 on the road at altitude. A decent win for them, but one of Colorado's best player was out.

Either way, Colorado continues to stay analytically okay Q2 for us.

Ranked teams yesterday had an interesting time

Gonzaga (-20.5) only beat Pepperdine by 7
Mississippi St (-28.5) only beat Bethune-Cookman (??) by 14
Arkansas was only up 3 at halftime against Oakland
Cincinnati lost to unranked Kansas St

 

[HuskyHawk]

Work is super quiet. Guess I can probably take in the Kansas vs West Virginia game at noon.

 

[bendm]

ACC has 1 ranked team. 9 teams w/ a NET under 100. ouch. maybe they should consider adding a bball blueblood.

 

[HuskyHawk]

Did my time backwards, 2:00 game

Nothing the ACC has done makes any sense. I don't even think I want UConn joining that sinking ship.

Yeah I noticed. I saw your post and then tried to find it at 12 and realized it wasn't until 2pm. I was upset.

The ACC is like a ship being held together by a combination of duct tape and previously chewed gum. Only a matter of time before it sinks.
