College football conference title games are today. I will be watching more of those to be honest. Not in full fledge basketball mode until later this month. I honestly think Zags will crush Bama today.

 

[rockycard]

I don’t know how Louisville is -4 at NCST, I don’t see us winning that game.

I hope not. As pedestrian as we looked last night, that might allow Gonzaga to jump us for # 1.

Zags massacre bammers. I won't be a fun game to watch.

I'm a pretty pessimistic dude.

But what I will say is they are playing without Manny Bates he is real good. And coming off a marathon win.

That game @ Mich St isn't as bad as it seemed. It is true they mailed it in but Louisville shot horribly and Mich St was the opposite. First true road game and Mich St had already played tough teams KU and Baylor... Loyola.

Louisville hasn't shot the 3 well at all this year if they knock down more today I think they will steal it. If they don't it's probably gonna be a long year. Might be a long year either way.

I think they can. Louisville showed a lot of fight at MSU, I'm taking UofL in this one.
Just gotta stop turning the ball over.

Ole Miss and Memphis should be a good game. I would have thought Memphis runs away, but who knows now. Only 80 miles separate them. Ole Miss is my best chance to see UK. They used to be easier to get until Ole Miss updated their arena.

When is y'alls next game against a decent team? Got a bunch coming up in a row? That Duke game feels like 6 months ago.

Ohio State in two weeks. Notre Dame is trash and we have them next week.

Are we counting Notre Dame? If not Dec 18th vs Ohio St.

I watched a bit of them yesterday they just didn't look good.

They do have a little history of showing something unexpectedly but yeah they look bad.

 

[Ipartiedwithhopgood]

Bates did not start for Memphis today

 

[lurkeraspect84]

Bates did not start for Memphis today

Some local rumblings about players not getting along. Players wanting more PT/shots/etc.

 

[rockycard]

Emoni Bates reminds me of BJ Boston.

 

[lurkeraspect84]

Memphis is getting some weak sauce calls.

Memphis 14-28 on ft’s

Shocking turn of events. Just shocking I tell you.

 

[Ipartiedwithhopgood]

This is a game they need. Still may not get it. What is the Ole Miss record?

 

[lurkeraspect84]

Memphis is solid on D, but complete poo on offense.

 

[Ipartiedwithhopgood]

Yes some strange officiating in the Memphis "road" game.

Some dude for Memphis just took 5 steps at the top of the key.

This is bad basketball.

 

[BasketBallJunkie-UK]

Memphis imploding lol

 

[SpartanJD]

Once Emoni Bates recruitment became a complete circus and his dad who has zero coaching experience created a new prep school just for his son I knew he’d be more headache than he’s worth.

He’s 1-8 from the field and plays zero defense. Lol

 

[Ipartiedwithhopgood]

Memphis turns it over every trip and Ole Miss up big is in a rush to take a shot in the first 5 seconds of the shot clock. This is NIT level stuff.

 

[Noahtogo24]

What's wrong with Memphis???

I've watched most of Memphis games and outside of a few NBA level 3's, he's been complete ass.

 

[lurkeraspect84]

No PG/offense.

 

[Ipartiedwithhopgood]

Ole Miss says, we will keep fouling you also.

 

[Ipartiedwithhopgood]

Ole Miss looks real bad

 

[Ipartiedwithhopgood]

Bates shot that 3 from the corner as if there was 1 second left.

Fear not. Ole Miss will keep fouling you while leading.

 

[lurkeraspect84]

Titty sweat is so unfortunate.

 

[lurkeraspect84]

And the crowd meows.

 

[boilerzz]

At what point do players realize Penny Hardaway isn't a good coach and go elsewhere? Is the FedEx money that convincing?

I don't think they care

 

[lurkeraspect84]

Yes.

Also, they'll build a statue of Penny after he retires. Even if he has a losing record.

Their anthem should be the theme song to "Facts of Life".

 

[lurkeraspect84]

10 to 1, Penny regrets not taking the Magic job.

I want to like him. Everyone wants him to be a great story. He still can be, but bumpy start to say the least.

 

[Ipartiedwithhopgood]

Lurk they love Penny down there right?

I was in Memphis for a week when he was in HS and he was a very big deal then. He had already committed to Memphis.

Some guys grow into being better coaches who knows. They seem really ragged.

He has his hands in so much youth stuff down here. Even prior to becoming the UM coach he built this huge sports complex, created countless after school opportunities, etc. The guy is Memphis.

He can be a great story.

He needs a PG. Solid PG can make a real difference. They have all that raw talent but they are ALL out of control.

They might run out of chances for quality wins by the time they find one.
