LSU-VCU is already testing the new flop rule. (It's also a good game.)

e: this game was actually legally required: when Will Wade signed his contract with VCU, there was a clause saying that if he were to take another job, as part of the buyout mitigation his new school would play a one-off return game in Richmond. plus we're getting a whole ton of students dressed as FBI agents standing next to the LSU bench.

Ohio State is doing terrible things to Villanova.

So is St Joe’s to UConn but that’s not really a surprise, it’s just hilarious.

I mean he had to shoot there with the shot clock expiring, but Nojel Eastern is the worst shooter I've ever seen.

Edit: Avoiding the triple post here, this Purdue team is just excruciating to watch. There's talent there but they are loving awful right now.

I think they'll be fine by January, but there are some big shoes to fill and big adjustments to make by some of the Sophs to get there.

:siren: someone broke 40 against Virginia :siren:

Columbia scored a whole 42 points.

Next UVA game is against what should be a pretty decent Vermont team but it's the back to back games with Purdue and UNC in early December that'll show whether this year's UVA can actually score against a good opponent.

Purdue is bad right now. They're up only 10 at the half against literally the worst division 1 program in CBB and a team that Eastern Illinois beat 98-34 earlier this week.

Purdue's shooting is so bad, and they can't seem to get the ball in to Haarms in the post right now. 16-2 run to start the 2nd half, but that's mostly due to 2nd chance points, they're murdering Chicago St on the glass.

And I think Nojel Eastern's wrist is worse than has been let on, he can't shoot and took 2 FTs right handed.

Eastern could never shoot though, like yeah he had a good run with FTs in the latter half of last season but I never really bought him being a 70+% FT shooter.

I didn't watch but at least it looks like the team played better in the 2nd half.

Wisconsin Marquette is everything you could ask for in the I-94 rivalry. Big away crowd, student section chanting about the Housers leaving, perhaps the worst paint shooting on record and awful officiating both ways.

Kentucky survives against Utan Valley in a game that was closer than the final margin looks.

They shot 1 for 12 from 3 tonight, and are 13 for 66 on the season. Not great.

i love these early-season tournaments. cbs sports network is showing something from montego bay jamaica which is clearly a copycat of the atlantis one, they've got that 'basketball court and stands hastily set up in a ballroom' vibe going and rhode island is playing north texas. there's a pecking order to these tournaments, probably mostly determined by whether you're part-owned by ESPN or not, and this one is not high up on it

Merrimack (which is actually D1 now) beat Lesley University 110–16 tonight. That school (adorably enough, the Lesley Lynx) actually has a decent enrollment and competes in D3, but it only went coed in 2005 and remains mostly an art and design school so you wonder why they bother with intercollegiate sports.

UVA struggling against UMass and I think there are very legit worries about this team finding the firepower to overcome hot-shooting nights by, say, ACC opposition. Time still to find something but right now this looks like a second-round exit kind of team.

Looked for all the world like they'd lose to Arizona State today, but the defense kept them in till Casey Morsell got super hot. He's gonna be a good one.
