Imagine beating Bethune Cookman by less than 40. Embarrassing

That doesnt happen...oh

 

[IUfanBorden]

NIce showing tonight......Gonna find out a lot next Friday, @ Xavier. But IU is very deep. Lots of interchangeable parts. Reneau/JHS are really good. Kopp so far seems to have found his stroke.

Can't wait for Hoosiers trip to Xavier.

The Jerome Hunter / Miller family revenge game

The Jerome Hunter / Miller family revenge game

Knowing our fortunes-----HUnter will probably drop 40 on IU.... 🤣 .

Man if not for health issues, I think that young man is really special. Shame, really.

 

[otte21]

It's shitty if you are a Purdue fan.

Joke’s on you buddy. My whole life is shitty, not just the start of this season.

 

[otte21]

They gave a decent background on it on the latest cbs eye on cbb pod, but long story short, the Election pushed the champs classic to next week. They were still critical of coaches scheduling nothing games for this opening week though

Man, it’s been brutal. Outside of Purdue games my biggest draw to watching other games is through betting & these games with 30ish point spreads are unbettable.

 

[MGC_07]

Is the start of the season always this shitty? I seem to remember there always being a couple of games to really look forward to in the first week. Just a bunch of glorified exhibitions so far.

Don’t fret, you can watch MSU get butt fvcked by Gonzaga later today

I hope they get more consent than Appling did

How much did MSU get paid to play Gonzaga?

 

[RutgHoops]

Rutgers beat Sacred Heart, picked to finish 2nd in the NEC (Northeast Conference), by 38. 88-50. Andre Hyatt with 19, Cam Spencer with 18/7, Cliff with 17/7. We look like we are going to be a solid 8 deep when McConnell returns.

They’re a fringe top 300 kenpom team, but I worship this framing

Edit: what is McConnell’s absence due to? Injury?

 

[MGC_07]

Apparently some decent wind expected for MSU Gonzaga

His knee. Only supposed to hold him out three games. Should be back for Temple which is our first decent test. Albany finished third in the NEC last season and would up 278 in kenpom, so yeah my framing was generous.

Hard not to like what I've seen from Rutgers thru two games, but I'm not about to go @hawkit3113 about my squad. The only thing I think I've learned is this team looks better equipped to kick the s--t out of low majors than our past versions. We share the ball better with no true "alpha" leading to easy/open shots and we make free throws better than past versions.

How will that translate when league play starts without a "star" like Harper Jr or Geo who could get us 20 against the best teams? Time will tell.

So fvcking dumb lol

 

[hailtoyourvictor]

So fvcking dumb lol

Is that already built into the under?

 

[MGC_07]

So fvcking dumb lol

Yeah, hard to take results away from a game played outside. I’m going to try not to get too high or low on this team from this game

 

[Deathclutch]

I would like us to win by more than one point tonight. TY

It’s important to have goals

Wrong sport. They score points in basketball dummy.

A solid 8 deep?!? Only if you pump twice! Oh!

Yeah that and just being on a ship in general. Be in the mid to upper 150’s if it were on a normal court.

 

[Noahtogo24]

MD 2-0, but Carey, transfer from Gtown, has not looked good so far...

 

[Jaycg15]

 

[IUBtown]

Indiana up to #8 in Kenpom.

It’s all anyone can talk about.

No champions classic in week 1 this year.

Next week instead for some reason

 

[ConqueringHero]

Rank MSU #1 you cowards

 

[1016CC0503]

Solid start so far.

Sissoko finally took the jump

 

[SpartanJD]

Solid start so far.

Sissoko finally took the jump

He’s Dwight Howard shooting free throws but yes we needed him to take a jump because front court depth sucks

 

[1016CC0503]

He will likely improve with all these reps he is getting lol.

Still causing foul trouble for the Zags and doing really well on D and the glass.

 

[MGC_07]

Sissoko getting his 4th there sucked.

Kohler just cannot defend Gonzaga’s attackers or Timme lol.

Hauser and him gotta switch….

That just a terrible matchup for a freshman.

 

[Gumbo02]

Biggest surprise is Jay Bilas is not insufferable tonight.

 

[ConqueringHero]

Hilarious that anyone is even attempting 3s.

Instant momentum killer.

Hauser is having himself a really rough half (and game)

 

[1016CC0503]

Not exactly a great environment for a finesse shooter.

 

[MGC_07]

Gonzaga going to win this. All our fvcking bigs in foul trouble.

 

[MGC_07]

Sissoko fouled out. That’s fvcking game. Kohler not stopping Timme

App says he only has 4 fouls, maybe they switched one from earlier on?

Or the app is just wrong
