Week of 2/12 Other games

Butler's defense defending these ball screens...

 

[superjohn]

Marquette takes care of business. Kolek is really playing great lately. Gonna be a huge game.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Not long at all

Butler, Xavier, St. Johns, Providence, Seton Hall and Villanova are working on the exact sequence of game outcomes that will make the 2023-2024 Big East the best conference in history to only get 3 bids to the NCAA tournament.

I’m glad they won. Sets up arguably the biggest game in CBB this season. So long as we take care of business tomorrow

 

[LStudfellow]

Marquette looks really, really good right now, especially with Kolek back to his ultra-effective, ultra-cocky form again. Saturday is going to be a titanic test for both teams. And I already know I am going to be swearing at the screen at least once (probably more often) something like

"How $#! are we leaving that Good Damn Cocky White Boy open from 3 AGAIN!!!!"... right after he hits a 3 and is wagging his finger at our boisterous crowd.

And before you ask... yeah, I'm a white guy, too. Not that it should matter.

Not that the NCAA formula cares about Bracket Matrix, but all of the above are still getting some votes, with SJU barely hanging on for a play-in, Hall and Providence being consensus first four out and Nova still has a fan.

I expect some of that to change if Pitt manages to hold on at UVA. They're up 10 with 6:28 left. That would be 2 Q1 road wins in a row. UVA hasn't lost at home in since 2022.

Man that banked Syracuse 3.

 

[El Obrero]

I’m bleeding Syracuse orange right now. (Don’t judge me.)

Why? NC isn't stealing a seed from us at this point. We want the teams we've played to win to boost our metrics.

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

Did Cam Spencer take Armando Bacot's soul? This kid looks terrible.

 

[Karmacop]

Virginia and Indiana State on the verge of blowing it after just being ranked this week.

 

[El Obrero]

Because North Carolina. (Blue blood my ass.)

 

[auror]

UNC making none of the plays down the stretch here.

 

[superjohn]

His stats look good but every time I've see him I think he sucks.

UConn takes care of business and none of it matters.

 

[aceboon]

One of those "spirit of the game" out of bounds calls off of Ingram

 

[superjohn]

What the hell is UNC doing?

 

[uchusky32]

This might be some poor Cuse fan’s biggest win in their lifetime

 

[uchusky32]

Carolina has some bad loses for the ACCs best Team.

 

[storrsroars]

Virginia and Indiana State on the verge of blowing it after just being ranked this week.

Oof, that's a baaaaad loss for Indiana St. Illinois St. was 220 on KP.

 

[caw]

Indiana St and UVA decided they didn't like to be ranked.

 

[uconngb]

Says the guy whose team is in ELEVENTH place in its conference

Pardon me, make that TWELTH place

Lololololol

 

[87Xfer]

Indiana St and UVA decided they didn't like to be ranked.

Pretty sure there have been Boneyard clowns who have argued that it doesn't matter, so maybe.

 

[storrsroars]

UNC might've had a chance if they didn't turn it over 3x in the final 2 minutes.

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

UNC might've had a chance if they didn't turn it over 3x in the final 2 minutes.

I can't remember the last time I've seen a team look this discombobulated down the stretch of a game. These are all self-inflicted. They can't even swing the ball around the perimeter without fumbling it out of bounds.

 

[Ripper32]

UK has to win tonight.

 

[J187Money]

Wow - they are storming the court at Cuse for beating #7 UNC. So sad.

 

[CTFAN4LIFE]

Wow - they are storming the court at Cuse for beating #7 UNC. So sad.

Pretty embarrassing

 

[Ripper32]

If UK loses 4 straight at home, it's going to be a bloodbath in Lexington.

 

[WhereistheDove?]

UK has to win tonight.

I’ve watched a few of their games this season and every time I’m still amazed at how completely incompetent they are on defense. Literally any screens or movement from the opposing offense and their heads are all spinning.
