Week 3: Other Games

Arkansas with the trap and steal down 2 then Anthony Black throws up a pretty bad contested runner and a deep bench guy rebound putback to beat the buzzer to send the game to OT.

Maui delivers again. Hope PKI is half this good.

 
Another beautiful slate today with UConn, Xavier, Seton Hall, Villanova and Butler all in play.

I'll be at a football house for Thanksgiving, but should be home by 8 PM for the UConn game. Also, I'm going to record the Florida/Xavier game for future intel as well as the Alabama/Michigan State game to set up a rainy Friday morning day off viewing slate.

Happy Thanksgiving, y'all. Whether you are with family, friends or alone today, try to find thanks in what we have in life, no matter what we have or have not.

Much love to the Boneyard!
 
Florida State got waxed by Siena. Man the ACC is full of some garbage now. Florida State, Georgia Tech, Louisville, Pitt, and BC are all putrid.

Portland is looking pretty good vs. UNC!

As others here have said, UNC is overrated. It happens every year to the team that makes an unexpected run in the tourney the previous season - they get some inflated hype at the beginning of the next season. UCLA previously. They’re (probably) a top-15 team. But clear-cut number one? Heck no. If we make the PKI final, I want them.

Those are the teams cuse will feast on, + 1 or 2 upsets against the top half of acc and they'll sneak in as an 11 seed again. Or one of those teams will feast on the other 4 +cuse and get an upset or two and sneak in.

Both things are true:

UNC hasn't played up to their rankings.
and
Portland is actually pretty good this year.

Kenpom knows all
 
Pretty cool to see UConn/Alabama as KenPom's top rated game of the day:

99%+ of college basketball fans today are rooting for Xavier.

Plus, very good tests for Seton Hall, DePaul and Butler.

Specifically for Butler, I loved their pickup of Manny Bates (I hated Bryce Golden, especially his inability to defend). Bates is an elite defender and a more than adequate low-post big (12.7p, 7.0r, 2.8b). Good to see him healthy and playing well.
 
Purdue v Gonzaga will be a battle of the big men tonight. Edey v Timme. Unfortunately - a midnight tipoff....

Playing his old team. NC State's guards really surprised me. Gonna be tough for Butler.
 
Caleb Grill on Iowa St is breathing fire and suddenly they have UNC on the ropes with a minute left.

That long one was the dagger that UNC collapsed from there. Gave up 10 or 12 straight down the stretch.

Like Creighton, UNC needs to develop their bench. Is Dontrez Styles injured?

Wow... Iowa state ends with a 17-5 run.
 
Our clown schedule just took a huge hit. We need to beat Alabama tonight. AD Dave and Hurley can’t schedule this poorly again.

Alabama is Kenpom #11, UNC is #18.
Iowa St was #54 before tonight.
