Week 2 - Nov 11 to 17

[Vowelguy]

Patting myself on the back for predicting KY would be pretty good this year.

 

[nwhoopfan]

What happened to South Dakota? The 'Yotes used to be right there w/ their neighbors the Jackrabbits at SDSU. USD is 0-3 w/ losses to St. Louis, Air Force and Loyola Marymount, and they are currently getting absolutely boat raced by Nebraska 60-33...at the half!

 

[nwhoopfan]

Nebraska dropped 113 on South Dakota. Britt Prince w/ 23, I'm assuming that's her highest scoring output early in her career.

 

[nwhoopfan]

They're gonna hang on, but BYU struggled all game long to put away an Idaho St. team they shouldn't have had that much trouble with.

 

[KnightBridgeAZ]

Is there relegation in D1 sports? Chicago St. is just so sad. In 4 games have given up 96, 87, 111 and 104 points. 52 at the half today. Losing margin has been under 40 only once, and then just barely.

They do have a new coach. It is apparently possible - I'm not holding my breath - that they may improve in future seasons, at least according to the write-up. They have been consistently awful for a number of years.

 

[JellyBean]

Kentucky/Louisville was pretty intense. Great game by both teams. Kentucky got the win and looked good in the win.

 

[maple]

I will be at the Syracuse/FDU game today. Will be interesting to get eyes on the team that UConn plays next.

I expect Syracuse to get the W, but with the way this current group is playing, nothing feels certain just yet.

 

[Stagnant]

Iowa/Drake could be an interesting one today.

 

[visitingcock]

Good tv day for me:

My favorite P-5 team, South Carolina, v East Carolina.

Followed by my favorite mid major, South Dakota State, vs Duke

 

[Stagnant]

wow. TCU is actually favored over nc state.

Dawn Plitzuweit left three years ago and they’re on their second head coach since. It’s a real shame, as they were a great example of building a great team from pretty good parts. Ay least the Jacks are still good.

Jacks-Blue devils at three this afternoon in Brookings should be a fun game.

 

[darrell]

wow. TCU is actually favored over nc state.

I’d love to see them enter the Top 25. Mark Campbell’s work has not gone unnoticed.

State... Please don't embarrass the ACC, The Triangle, and the state of NC today on national TV. Signed, a concerned ACC fan and NC resident.

Apparently it was Stanford you needed to worry about embarrassing the conference today. If you are claiming them.

 

[Stagnant]

Iowa and Drake is a battle so far. Drake dominating the perimeter. And Iowa is dominating the paint.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Georgia Tech with a fairly easy win over Georgia. Lower level SEC teams continuing to look very unimpressive so far this year.

O'Grady was unstoppable. Hawkeyes went on a run to end the half.

The Cardinal lose at 1-2 IN by 13 in an ugly game, with a combined 47 personal fouls called on both teams.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Van Lith just hit 2000 career points. Yes it's her 5th year, but early on, so only a small * is necessary.


They just showed other active career 2000 point scorers, and most if not all of them have used extra eligibility.

Ga is not good

Ga-Mizzou are a disaster

I quit watching, but to grossly simplify it, Indiana was hitting shots and Stanford wasn't. Sometimes basketball is a pretty simple game.

I’ll give Tara credit for knowing when it was time to retire. This Stanford team has some size but they really lack athleticism. It could be a long season flying back and forth to the East Coast to play in the ACC.
