On paper SC is the better team, but right now the Gamecocks are struggling, and on the road against a decent Purdue team in West Lafayette I have to give the edge to the Boilermakers.

 

[DaBball]

Tough to go with Purdue. I thought they looked flat out bad in losses to UConn and Ohio. I’m going gamecocks here.

 

[VaConnFan11]

South Carolina is a 3 1/2 point favorite. I like Purdue in this game.

The couple of times I have seen SC play, I have not been impressed. To me, they look average at best.

Hope the cornhole championship does not run into OT.

Purdue might be home court heroes this year. Their losses to UConn and St. John's were on a neutral court, and the loss to Ohio was on the road. They also have a home court win over Miami.

Why does ESPN cover games like this and not the Baylor-Stanford game yesterday or any other marquee matchups?

Tell Baylor and Stanford to have their marquee matchup on a Sunday instead of a Saturday thats filled with Men's Basketball and/or college football. Really shouldn't be that hard to understand.

I guess that Sunday marquee WCBB games would rather compete against the NFL????
Personally, I would watch a quality WCBB matchup over the NFL nowadays, for example, right now!

When do they start launching into the SEC soliliquys ... 4 minutes left 5-2. This is SEC basketball!

 

[Rixxx]

End of 1Q. SC 11-10

 

[Plebe]

Both teams are really middling. Not a great showcase for the sport.

In other action, Michigan State is in a real battle with Hartford, up by 4 with 3:30 left.

I just switched back to football. I could not take it anymore.

Tied at 57 now.

 

[triaddukefan]

I was gonna say something disrespectful towards Big 10 women's basketball.... then I remembered that Duke got molly-whopped by an Big 10 also-ran earlier in the season.... so I'll refrain

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Baylor Stanford was on the PAC-12 Network. It’s likely due to TV deals and who gets what game.

 

[Centerstream]

Stetson @ Texas was close until the 4th quarter pull away by the Longhorns. 65-46 final. The portions of the game that I saw were very ugly, to put it mildly.

Well how is the game going to grow if we don’t choose to play (1) women’s game out of the 50 men’s games played on a Saturday?

 

[triaddukefan]

Why were they playing the Gamecock's music at halftime at Purdue

 

[DefenseBB]

This is an ugly game. I know Dawn is our national coach now, but eegads, please show some offensive ingenuity to warrant that lofty position. This is just dreadful. Remind me again how she won a title?

Uhhh easy. UConn lost on a buzzer beater.

 

[huskeynut]

A slug fest to be sure.
Purdue now up 40 - 39. Minute and a half left in the 3rd.

 

[Rixxx]

Where are Ty Harris and Tea Cooper in the offensive scheme?

 

[Plebe]

Dawn has shaken up her starting lineup. Te'a Cooper came off the bench and she's been very quiet, only 2 points so far.

 

[triaddukefan]

I wonder who is better...... Big Carolina or Little Carolina

 

[DefenseBB]

Whatever happened to Bianc Cuevas Moore?

 

[DefenseBB]

I wonder who is better. Big Carolina or Little Carolina

Sadly, probably NC...

 

[eebmg]

Purdue really battling now on the boards. 51-44 with 5+ minutes left.

 

[huskeynut]

51 - 44 Purdue with 5:24 to go. Purdue out rebounding SC 33 - 23.

 

[Plebe]

Whatever happened to Bianc Cuevas Moore?

She finally returned from her knee injury a couple weeks ago. She's had several steals but not much impact on the scoring.
