Tennessee at Miss State at 5:00 looks like it will be on ESPNU.

Postponed last night due to inclement weather/travel issues. ?

 

[SECbbfan24]

I see the Baylor and Tennessee games were postponed due to weather

Looks like tomorrow's Wyoming New Mexico game as well as the game on the 19th has been due to covid results in NM program.

Not going to be much going on in Texas this week because of weather and travel problems.

 

[SECbbfan24]

I'm in Texas near Houston and a lot of power is out with bad looking roads. We aren't used to this

 

[nwhoopfan]

ESPN is showing the Nova-Butler score 67-26 at the half?! Is that for real?

That's what the scoreboard at Warren Nolan shows.

 

[Plebe]

Since I posted the Wednesday games less than 48 hours ago, no fewer than seven of the games I've listed are now showing as postponed, including, much to the chagrin of @LETTERL , Nicholls's game at 0-16 Northwestern State, which promised to bolster the Colonels' win-loss record.

Hoping things improve soon.

Initially I thought it was funny being from Canada but I didn't realize the power and water issues at the time. Would be dealing with the same challenges if our electricity grid went down.

Keep warm and stay safe.

 

[Centerstream]

Close game at USF in the 4th quarter, 52-50 Cincy with 4:14 left.

 

[Vowelguy]

USF on the verge of seeing their seed plummet.

 

[Centerstream]

USF and Cincy tied at 56...53 seconds remaining and that's how the 4th quarter ended.

 

[Kaizen]

56 - 56 OT.

 

[Centerstream]

USF survived in OT 69-65

 

[Plebe]

Bowling Green continues its impressive campaign this season, with a home win over Central Michigan, leaving them atop the MAC standings at 12-3.

Somewhat of a changing-of-the-guard year in the MAC, with BGSU and Northern Illinois 1-2 followed by CMU, Ohio and Buffalo in spots 3-5.

This weekend is a big one for the Big Sky.

Tonight all games on Pluto TV

NAU hopefully doesn't overlook winless Weber State. Jacks are at home with a 6:00 p.m. MST tip.

Huge game Idaho State v Montana State. With a sweep Montana State vaults into first place. Idaho State is coming off a loss to instate rival Idaho. Montana State is riding an eight game winning streak. This may be the game of the night. 7:00 p.m. Mountain Standard Time on Pluto TV channel 1057.

Third place Idaho keeps its faint championship hopes alive against Portland State at 7:00 p.m. MST with the action on Pluto TV . Idaho needs to win out and have the two teams above them in the standings each stumble in the final weekend of the season. The ideal scenario for Idaho would be for Montana State to sweep the Vandals. Portland State swept NAU last weekend to extend their winning streak over the Jacks to 6 years or 12 games.Portland State will face a much tougher task against Idaho.

Thanks for the channel as their search buttons stink!

My personal interest today is 4 games- Michigan and Naz Hillmon performance;
SC vs. Tenn and which Tenn teams shows up. Gonzaga vs. BYU and yes Idaho State as they appear to be good.

 

[UCFKnights]

UCF won at Tulane last night. Alisha Lewis has had the hot hand the last two games for the Knights. I didn't get to watch due to being in Texas and not having power until the game was over but glad that the team was able to win yesterday.

 

[LETTERL]

Seton Hall and Georgetown in OT.

 

[LETTERL]

Seton Hall beats Georgetown, 79-72.

That Idaho State - Montana State game is going to be outstanding. Both teams are excellent and they know how important tonight's game will be. Don't sleep on Montana State however as they try to win their 9th in a row.
