Upcoming games: mostly duds

Baylor played its worst game of the year. Shots weren't falling, free throws weren't falling, Baylor wasn't fighting over screens, fouled too much,

Thank goodness for Kristy Wallace and Kalani Brown.

I think Baylor wasn't focused of TTU and may have already been looking forward to the Texas game.

Mulkey probably will have plenty to chew their asses about tomorrow.

Well, if tonight is any indication, Texas wasn't any better, letting Kansas Sate almost beat them while shooting a pretty mediocre 43%.

I especially liked the way K-State guarded Higgs, who (if I recall) was a royal pain in Bridgeport.
They laid way, way, off her; challenging her to shoot from the outside...she is even uncertain from the foul line. And she didn't...Difficult to penetrate if your outside shot is totally disrespected.

At least we get to see how Texas and Baylor stack up Monday night.

I don't believe it will be close. Guess who won't let it be close? I believe you will be satisfied.

This season Higgs was not a factor against Uconn.

The third ranked team in the Horizon League - right behind second place (now) Green Bay.

Detroit hit 16 of 26 3-pointers, with six different players hitting at least one 3 (and five hitting at least two 3s). When a team gets hot like that, they can beat a lot of teams.

What channel was the game on?
 
Im hoping the Duke-UVA game will be a dud... but i have a feeling it may be a flub. :oops:

My guess is the players playing the game. Both teams will have to adjust
To the way the refs call the game.

End of 1st quarter in Charlottesville...

Duke leads Virginia, 23-13. Blue Devils finished the quarter on a 23-5 run, including 4 THREEs.

Please stop. This is not a game thread.
 
Surprised at the Duke-UVA result.... but I'm not gonna complain.
 
The battle of the Techs looks like it will be a battle to the finish. VPI needs this win in the worst way.

I wouldnt have been shocked if they did. UVA scared me.... they play tough at home, and Duke struggles on the road. Plus we were due for a road clunker to a unranked conference foe. That seems to happen every year.
 
VPI is playing with 5 guards... all probably under the height of 5'1o. Their center is out with an injury.... their PF has 4 fouls. Scrappy effort on their part.

Hicks with another monster game, 29 points on 14-of-20 shooting, 6 assists and 6 steals.

Virginia Tech's at-large bid is now in serious jeopardy. They've now lost six in a row, and they next play Louisville and @NC State.

I think if they can somehow get to 20 regular season wins and 1 win in the conference tourney... they can make it.

Well in order to do that they'd have to suffer no more bad losses and pick up another quality win over Louisville, NC State or Miami. Not saying they can't do it, but it will require an abrupt turnaround from their current slide.
 
Ewwww....Clemson topped UNC today, at home, 78-67 for only the Tigers' second ACC win in the last three seasons. Makes NCState's loss to UNC last Sunday even more hurtful. Of course, Clemson gave us all we could handle in Raleigh two weeks ago.

I didn't get to see this game but I suspect maybe the THREEs weren't falling for the Heels like they did last weekend against the Wolfpack.
 
Did someone say "Spuds"?

It comes with my cable package so I do not pay extra for it. I watch it only when there is a Texas women's basketball game on. I do pay extra for SNY and it is worth it.

I dropped out of Harvard, Yale and Columbia.

Well technically I was never admitted. HOWEVER, if I was admitted, I'm pretty sure I would have dropped out of them. (or been kicked out, but whatever, you see where I'm going with this.)
