Boswell is back, but he has a big bandage(s) on his injured hand. That has to affect his play.

C’mon ESPN/AP. Since when is Michigan a Blue Blood in CBB?

View attachment 117298

Fellow blue blood Michigan? In basketball? When did that happen?

 

[auror]

Do we want Illinois to win? Kinda lost here.

They're probably close enough in seeding that I'd say no. Want everyone on the 1 or 2 line to lose at this point.

Absolutely. From a likeability perspective, I do find them to be at the top of the list of the contenders this year.

If we aren't winning it, then I'd pull for StJ, then this Illnois team may be at top of the list. Wagler, is fun, the euro thing is different, and the coach is a cool dude.

I think I have this right.

1, 2, 5, 7, 8, 9, 13, 16, 18, 19, 20, 21, 23, 24, lost this week

10 and 11 playing close ones now.

6 x 23 still to go today.

The 6 is the big one.

UCLA giving up way too many offensive rebs

UCLA giving up way too many offensive rebs

That rebound/save was clutch though.

 

[auror]

What is that UCLA clock operator doing lol.

 

[aceboon]

That rebound/save was clutch though.

After they let it bounce right in front of them, now another offensive reb given up to Wagler for the go ahead basket.

 

[gsmooth]

What is that UCLA clock operator doing lol.

Probably an Illinois alum.

 

[auror]

What are these announcers talking about. The clock stops on the make, not when he calls timeout.

 

[gsmooth]

Play call, probably Donovan Dent with a speed dribble and kick out to a spotted up shooter after drawing in multiple defenders.

 

[aceboon]

Wow Dent took it coast to coast ala Edney

 

[superjohn]

Brando with the great call

 

[UConnTrumbull]

Thank you Mick?

 

[auror]

Brando with the great call

Yeah I was literally thinking Edney as he was going lol.

 

[BigTenFan]

Wow! Crazy finish in LA

 

[gsmooth]

Play call, probably Donovan Dent with a speed dribble and kick out to a spotted up shooter after drawing in multiple defenders.

Well, I was half right. He reincarnated Tyus Edney from round 2 of 1995 NCAAT.

 

[Marat]

Why did UCLA storm the court?

 

[RuffRuff]

Took it through the trees. Illinois didn't do one thing to even make him pause.

 

[Dibbie]

Illinois 3rd OT loss…hate the Edny reference as that UCLA team ended up beating Ray and a great UConn team

 

[BFieldHusky]

Good result for UConn...
