Instead of creating a thread for a random game, this can be a catch all.

Wisconsin vs. #12 Houston is coming down to the wire. 5...7 point game (Wis) with 4 to go.
 
If Wisconsin hold on, fourth straight day Big ten Team took down a top 25 team.

Also have to think Bruce Weber is extra pumped for the game tonight...
 
UVA defense was absolutely elite vs. Providence tonight. Won 58-40 over a 5-0 team that beat Wisconsin. Offense still needs a ton of work but loved the defense tonight.

To be fair, Wisconsin was missing J. Davis vs Providence , who scored 30 today vs Houston, however point stands. Has UVA's defense never been nasty under Tony??

Did not know that. That makes a lot more sense now. Considering we lost to Navy and got blown out by Houston, I’ll take it.

Defense last year was pretty meh

Didn't know W. Miller had 3 guys from his old team leave for Cincy with him...
 
Texas Tech beat up on an overmatched Omaha team tonight 96-40. Our team is starting to gel nicely. We can easily have a rotation of 10 guys if we want. This team is light years ahead of our last 2 seasons. They will challenge the top of the Big 12.

Welcome back to elite status. You guys might be the only ACC team to win one of the preseason tournaments.

Navy beats Virginia
Virginia beats Providence
Providence beats Wisconsin
Wisconsin beats Houston

Therefore, Navy beats Houston.

Also, Colgate took down Syracuse. That's two Patriot League schools taking down schools in the top-half of the ACC.
 
Loyola vs Sparty, just really ragged. The defenses way ahead of the offenses here. Lots of guys just out of control.

Haha what's the average age of a Fort Myers resident? Or does their brand of basketball just attract a particular demographic?

Louisville looked formidable last night vs Miss St. It was a blowout the final score a little misleading +14 they were up 30 with 10 min to go I think. Individually each player has limitations but collectively they may end up being okay. They have a ton of guys good enough to play but no alpha. Sloppy with the turnovers maybe when Mack returns that gets cleaned up. They have a few big men that goof around with it on the perimeter and that just screams run out for the other team. But they do have a handful of guys that can hit the 3. The PG is limited offensively but he could be a stopper on D. They seemed to be dialed in mentally on D and were kind of punking Miss St.

It is possible MSU is just a very bad team, they shot 1-15 from 3s. I think UNC fans might be annoyed by their team but losing Brooks not really a big deal. The guy didn't have much of a motor last night. If that's his standard they are better off with whoever has replaced him. 8&4 in 33 min with a WTF are you doing 0-5 from 3pt line for a guy that thinks he's an NBA 1st Rounder is just bad. Jeffries from Memphis was invisible. Also, Watts didn't do anything, 2 points. Don't know a ton about them overall but this could be an example of people over estimating value from transfer portal. Off season it seemed the consensus was Miss St was a big winner on the portal. Still early maybe they get better, but they looked like dog sh!t last night. The 0 Miss St fans that post here are probably pissed. + they lost the Egg bowl.
 
Ready for MD Ville tomorrow morning at 10!
I used Ayala in D Kings yesterday he did not disappoint. What do you guys have this year? Do you have bigs that play above the rim? I believe this is one of the weaknesses for Louisville, their bigs are good but they do not post much and/or play above the rim. Shot blocking is non-existent.
 
Baylor/Sparty has tipped.

Wish every day was a holiday gotta love 11am tip offs.

10am tip offs are even better 😎

About the Terps- still a work in process- 7 out of our top 10 players are either transfers or freshman. However, hopefully Turge can get the togetherness down smoothly soon.

Q our transfer center has been very good so far- averaging 11 and 7 per game so far. 7 footer, but def a below the rim player- Reese a freshman, has been very nice as back-up center so far.

Ayala is def the captain of the team this year, but Hart is the x-factor. Don't win last night without his 24 points. Also need D. Scott to step up his game offensively..
 
I get Alabama is supposed to be good, but could ESPN really not get anybody else decent besides Kansas for this tournament?
 
Watching Kentucky again tonight, are they better than last year or is it more of a much softer schedule?
