There are no words for what a loving joke this missouri offense is. if you're not playing virginia level defense then this team is a bottom 50 team in the league

on the plus side, if they continue playing this shittily, i can cancel my sling subscription and randomly tune in to a reddit feed if i feel like sticking needles in my eyeballs

there's 12 minutes left in the first half and mizzou is currently losing 12-3 to CHARLESTON SOUTHERN at home.

UVA beat a bad team 46-26 tonight and I don’t know if that’s really the best tuneup for Purdue/UNC but Tony Bennett seems to know what he’s about.

The wild thing about tonight’s game is that the opponent (Maine) hit all 5 of their free throws, it could’ve been worse.

God I hate what you guys have done to basketball. Just fuckin stab the rock already and deflate it at half court, then go out for pizza for the next 40 minutes, way more fun.

interesting article, and it hearkens back to something i'd forgotten about :

quote:

Those that think this season’s Virginia team is unique clearly did not live through the 2005 Washington State season. The ’05 Cougars were first in defense and 264th in offense to go along with the fourth-slowest pace. Even with that unwatchable combination and a longer shot clock, just three of Washington State’s 28 games ended up with fewer than 100 points scored.

i vaguely remember those wazzou teams! of course, those were tony bennett's dad's teams until he inherited the position, so the apple isn't falling far from the tree here

32-17. But Virginia figured something out at the end and Purdue was pretty stagnant the last 8 minutes or so. It's going to be a close finish and it's going to finally kill me.

Did not expect that to happen. Not going to hit 52% of 3 every night, but the new starting line up tonight clicked better than any other group this season. They should have a good run going into Butler at the Crossroads Classic.

NC State’s best game of the season by a long way. Other than the game at Auburn everything’s winnable for a month or more, they have to build on this win or the season will be over before February.

I grew up in the late 70s-early 80s and saw some great DePaul Rey Meyer teams at the Horizon with my parents. DePaul was also on WGN all the time so they had pretty decent exposure. Anyway it's great to see them be good again and tonight's win over TTU was a heck of a reminder about the good old days.

Grew up in the 80's and my Dad had DePaul season tickets. Saw the tail end of Dallas Comegys and then Rod Strickland. It was definitely fun in the city when DePaul had a good team.

about depaul, what's crazy to me is that dave leitao is the one coaching it. his time at virginia wasn't exactly stellar, but depaul took him back and he's still there

i'm glad depaul has a place in chicagoland sports, as seen in the posts above. what's really weird is that if i'm reading my kenpom right, depaul entered the big east in 2006 and has never had a winning record since. kenpom projects them at 8-10 now. i'll be watching to see if this is the year that depaul achieves big east mediocrity

Leiato was actually good his first run at DePaul.

The issue the team had is DePaul never really spent money on their program as other schools poured money in to theirs. They take poo poo for it, but it is kind of admirable. Problem is that they aren't a Big East school. They should have just stuck in Conference USA where they could be competitive. Even if they have some success in the coming years, it'll just mean Leiato leaving because DePaul is a mid-major program that is a major conference.

Michigan let Garza get what he wanted which they seemed to be Ok with. They locked down the rest of the Iowa team and Iowa didn’t have a hope of stopping Michigan on offense.

Bad? They broke 20 before halftime. How much more do you want?

The O/U was 126, currently we're at 38 at halftime.
