Week 16 - Feb 16 to 22

Could the fact that they had to play with a day's rest after their game against Tennessee on Tuesday be part of it? I'd prefer not to think so, as this is the type of schedule they'll be dealing with during the SEC tournament and March Madness.

IMO I feel it did. Quite the gauntlet playing 4 games in 8 days. Only one day of “rest” to prepare for a team like LSU who had 4 days since the SC game. In SECT all teams will be playing day after day (byes the one difference), so I don’t think that comparison is fair.

Credit to OM to take it to LSU for 3 Q’s. Would have been nice to see them win and take advantage of that packed house - possibly gain themselves some fan base.

Very bad loss. Cost me a Texas Roadhouse Sunday afternoon meal.

With your track record, I'd think you would quit betting when food is on the line.

Any premonitions about USC @ tOSU? Is an upset even remotely possible here?

Come on.....we're talking the BIG10 middle tier teams. As Kevin Garnett once said. 😉

Miami (OH) edged Ball St. by 4 and may have all but wrapped up the MAC regular season title.

At worst North Dakota St. will win a share of the Summit crown. 2 games up on South Dakota St. with 2 games to play. Those 2 play each other next. They pulled away from South Dakota today to win by 13 and eliminated one of their competitors from the race.

edit--as far as I know South Dakota or South Dakota St. have won that conference for as long as it has existed, so congrats to the Bizon

Manhattan won. They are showing some signs of life and should qualify for the conference tournament at least.

I check in on them occasionally since Hana Muhl is there.

Geez, Brooklyn Meyer went off for 44 the other night, Avery Koenen had 30/14/5 today. Summit Player of the Year is competitive this year.

I like this post. How many times can you find the word MISS in the photo?

Sunday Special. Thank me later. The Private school parlay. Wake Forest, Duke, Miami, Syracuse, Stanford, and Vanderbilt on the Moneyline.

If you want to eat good in the neighborhood parlay.. Duke and TAMU on the moneyline. the Lady Vols on the moneyline plus the over.

Trust me this time

Come on man.

Watching this Louisville - UVA game. Roberts for Louisville went down in the first quarter, you could hear her in agony laying down on the court. Couldn't put any pressure on left leg and had to be helped off the court straight to the locker room. Cardinals are in big trouble

That insight helps to explain things. Just saw the half time score.

Normally I wouldn’t care if UConn got the overall 1 or not … but this year …. Don’t want a possible semifinal with UCLA or SoCar, both of whom are looking very formidable.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Iowa has absolutely stymied Michigan today. Wolverines might not crack 50 points. I think I need to reevaluate how I see the Hawkeyes, they really have changed their persona as far as defense.

Heiden is nice. Michigan has no answer for her.

 

[Vowelguy]

Huge win for Iowa
Solidifies hosting

 

[nwhoopfan]

62-44 final. Michigan got close for a while but Iowa ran away down the stretch. Heiden finished with 24. Some beautiful post to post passes from Stuelke.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Heiden and Stuelke both had double-doubles, and Stuelke also added 7 assists.

When I said I could see them being considered a top 10 team, I remember you panning it. Could we tie this to your jinx tendency? 😉

UVA ho\ds off Louisville 74-72. Duke clinches the #1 seed in the ACC tournament with a victory today

Paper Bag Watch 😒 We can't lose to Clemson

That result definitely goes in the category of not what I expected.

Was at the game today; ugly rock fight in the 1st half: Michigan had 16 turnovers at the break, Iowa 13. Kept waiting for Michigan to get hot from 3 but Hawks' defense was stifling. Wolverines came in averaging 86.6 ppg.

Again I haven't been looking at the Tourney field projections on a daily basis, but is Oregon in some trouble? About to lose to Indiana, would drop to 7-10 in conference. Finish at home against Washington. Seems like a must win game for them, and probably should win a game or two in the conference tourney as well. 19-10 overall, but nothing particularly noteworthy in OOC. They have beaten USC, Maryland and Illinois in conference.
