SDSU withstood Haws making literally every three he took and survived a 92-87 double OT win, and will take on Pitt tonight.

My lord, death to BYU

I don't think they even have Mika right now (mission?). That team of 40 year Olds is always tough. Just one more year of Haws and then I'm sure they'll spawn another one.

I don't know why I like lovely basketball games so much, but I sure can't wait to go see IUPUI play Drake tonight.

This game went just as expected, Drake looked mediocre and IUPUI looked like poo poo, but it was a college basketball game, so it owned.

I wasn't able to see the game, but looking at the stats, ISU shot under 30% for the night, when they shot like 50% against Alabama. Was it good D by Maryland, or could ISU just not make a shot?

ISU couldn't make a shot and eventually they let themselves get frustrated and stopped playing Hoiball.

Florida's offense is so bad. It's just Kasey Hill running down the court and losing the ball, or dudes taking ridiculous contested shots.

Good News: Arizona beat SDSU.

SDSU-Arizona is the best out-of-conference basketball rivalry this side of the Mississippi. Seriously, it should be played every year, and SDSU is probably better than any of Arizona's conference opponents. It's also in San Diego, which is where all Tucsonans take vacations.

This would be a pretty awesome yearly rivalry, actually.

I kind of want the Aztecs to make a Final Four or two so that they get taken seriously as a basketball power. At the very least it'd be neat.

In actual N:, apparently UCLA is working on a home-and-home with UK? Sure, why not.

It's not a rivalry until we can win a couple of them.

We've been so close :(

But yeah I love watching the two teams play. I think both teams have a lot of respect for each other and both teams benefit from playing the game

N: I cursed myself by saying Wake didn't have a :wtf: loss yet, as we just dropped one at home to Delaware freaking State.

V:

We’ve looked SO much better than that in the past. Even in the loss to Iona, I felt like they looked pretty good. This game…I’ll just say I’ve never been angrier at a game. Those watching on ESPN3 probably heard me. Was I obnoxious? Maybe. But it’s not my fault it sounded like a library otherwise. I was trying to get the team pumped up, so freaking sue me. :colbert:

I don’t wanna dog a post-Thanksgiving crowd too much, but come on. The crowd is full of old people sitting on their hands and reading books and stuff and it's really annoying. :mad: I wasn't using obscenities or anything, either. I’ve never been angrier because I know the team is capable of better. A lot better. It was our 6th game in 10 days, but talk about gross.

I didn't see that game, so now I'm just imagining the commentators trying to nonstop chatter about college football and tryptophan and the new Star Wars trailer to drain out SamuriaFoochs screaming repeatedly, "GET AFTER IT, YOU loving FUCKS!" as it echos through the arena.

Every single year the Ivy League takes a break from fucking up the world through its various alumni to fuck up everyone's bracket instead.
NC State apparently keeps doing just enough to win, they'll get torn apart at Purdue in the Challenge but other than that might go into full ACC play in decent shape.

Sorry man, honestly I really expected State to lose tonight and I'm worried because under the rules of State fandom that means it's just storing up for something much worse down the road.

This mental image brings me much joy by the way, thank you. :3: No profanities from me though, unless GOD counts, which granted, North Carolina.

It was mostly pained AAAAAARGH sounds more than anything. And occasional rants about inconsistent calls or leaving guys open or missed easy layups. :(

VCU lost to Old Dominion. As a Virginia fan, I'm not sure hot to feel. Happy to see Jones and Stith succeeding as coaches, and happy that VCU is a winnable game for us next week. But our strength of schedule takes a hit with this.

Not really. VCU is going to waltz their conference title and be like a three or four seed.

VCU could also lose at Illinois State next time out, but neither of those games will affect how hard they come after UVA at home next week, especially with Virginia coming off another trap game at Maryland. (Thanks, ESPN.) If the Cavaliers win only one of those two, it'll still be a good week.
