Week 17 - Feb 23 to Mar 1

[BRS24]

Well folks, here we are at the last week of regular season play. What a wild season, eh? Same ol, same ol formatting. For maybe the second time this season, we've got two posts worth of games. Lots of conference tourney byes up for grabs.

Immediately after reading this thread, every time I think of Bob Geldorf and "I don't like Mondays" due to the dearth of quality games today. I'm spoiled and I want my MTV!

Thanks for doing this EVERY WEEK. I salute you!

While I'm not sure whether it pans out, the Illinois at Iowa game looks intriguing to me. I want to see how freshman Parchment fares against Stuelke and Heideman. She's held her own this season as a starter and is close to averaging a double-double. She also moves very well, so I'm looking forward to seeing how she does in this game.

@BRS24 D*mn you posted the week's schedule really, really quickly and I completely missed it.
WELL DONE!!!
I did notice that ESPN had updated their schedule quickly by looking at TN's schedule and noticing something "different" but didn't put 2+2 together. DOH!!

Rhode Island and Richmond getting underway in a big A-10 clash. From what I've been hearing it doesn't really have at-large bid implications, which is too bad.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Richmond is pummeling Rhode Island. Didn't really expect that.

Is USC gonna mess around and lose to Penn St.?

Is USC gonna mess around and lose to Penn St.?

They did! Just a terrible loss for the Trojans.

edit--McMiller went off for 40; Dunn, Davidson and Smith had 24, 22 and 19, but not much help from the rest of the team

 

[packwrap]

Wow just saw this. USC got McMillered. Where has that been all season?

Good thing I have 24hrs for my small brain to process implications for the Trojans.

 

[packwrap]

My AI chip was faster than expected...

USC finishes out with UCLA. If they lose that one they end league play 9-9 with wins over NC St, Iowa and Illinois. Win 1 in BigT and they are still safe, lose they may be in play in.

Saw this on ESPN and didn't trust their data. Now that I've seen this on Iowa State's website, I selfishly want this game to go to overtime. 😌

 

[packwrap]

Only current difference is a vowel.

Michigan’s win over Ohio state was pretty exciting. They gave the game away and then they roared back in overtime when it looked like they were dead.

Coaching/player malpractice by OSU at the end of OT. OSU ball after TO with 15 seconds left, game tied, shot clock off. OSU misses 3 pt shot with 11 seconds left. Michigan goes down and scores winning basket. Crazy for OSU to shoot with so much time on clock.

OSU lets a 3 go and it goes in at the buzzer but it was just a tick late. Quite the game.

Silly question: Vandy-Tennessee. Is an upset even a remote possibility?

 

[Stagnant]

Silly question: Vandy-Tennessee. Is an upset even a remote possibility?

Yes. Rivalry game. It's not like Vandy "out-talents" Tennessee. Anything can happen imo. Unless Coach Caldwell has lost the team.

Getting ahead of yourself, first Tennessee is gonna get waxed by LSU.

Well, they have lost 7 of their last 9 games. Surely the worm can turn at some point, right?

 

[EricSD]

tOSU with a masterclass on how to piss away an 8 point lead with 2 minutes left in OT. Poor defense, botched offense, lazy passes, it was a mess. Michigan deserved to win that game.

I don't think she has. As bad as their loss to aTm was, they played a really good offensive game against Oklahoma. It was their defense that was awful.

I think they get waxed by LSU, but would not be surprised to see them beat Vandy.

 

[JellyBean]

Silly question: Vandy-Tennessee. Is an upset even a remote possibility?

Heck yeah. It is a rivalry game. Anything can happen.
