November: Other NCAAB Games

[B1GEast]

A lot of big programs now have multiple losses. It's going to be that kind of year.

Cadeau missed a wide open layup and UNC should've lost to Sparty.

Now Sparty inexplicably let's UNC shoot a 3 with 5 seconds left to tie it.

I officially hate this tournament and really don't want to stay up for the delayed start.

Mich St. Looked real good till the last two min. After not fouling up 3, that last play was a hot mess.

UConn recruited Coen Carr.

Is this a good data point to show how bad they played yesterday? Would the Huskies have gotten steamrolled like this if they had pulled out the win against Colorado? Tough to say since the transitive property doesn't always work that way.

Would rather get steamrolled by Iowa St than steamrolled by Dayton!

Haven’t said this in about a decade but Louisville/West Virginia is pretty fun! Going to OT

Big 12 really sucks this season.

I can not remember a season where one league looked as dominant out of the gate as the SEC looks this season.

Kinda controversial ending in the Butler-Northwestern game last night. Butler went for the foul while up 3 with about 5 seconds left, and, at least to me, it seemed like the Northwestern kid was pretty clearly in a shooting motion and banked in the shot. Refs ended up calling it on the floor.

West Virginia is about to beat Arizona?? lol

 

[aceboon]

well at least Arizona has also been getting lumped up to start the season, need another major program to be in misery with us

So much for it being a football conference. I went to the college WS this year in Omaha, which was evenly split between SEC schools and ACC. SEC fans are different. They have mastered the art of a tailgate, come in bunches and are colorful and loud. ACC fans are wine and cheese comparatively. Peyton Manning and Morgan Wallen were both there and buzzing around in golf carts afterwards, routing for Tenn (who won the whole thing). The culture/pride in sports in those states is supercharged. It’s lots of fun, and easy to admire. With the $$ that conference has and the overall passion in that region no reason to think they don’t maintain hold. When you see it with your own eyes, even in baseball, you get it quickly. I haven’t been to an SEC football game but based on what I saw in Omaha, I’d imagine it’s 50x the energy.
