2011-2012 NCAA Basketball Thread

Sorry I don't follow Belmont.

Belmont is well coached and can play. "Legit top 25 team" is pushing it though. Duke was a double digit favorite at home against a small conference school, a loss would have been a disaster.

And I love how Coach K shoehorned this shit Presbeterian game in so that he can go for the record on ESPN in primetime against Michigan St. How often do you see cbb teams play back to back days (day game following night game, no less)? What a joke. The game after Michigan St is Davidson, so they must have called every school in the country to see who would play them today so he could break the record in a bigger spot.

-How about #7 Vanderbilt getting spanked by Cleveland St on national TV today? Gary Waters has a senior loaded team this year, so keep an eye on Cleveland St come March.

-Northwestern's new court is the ugliest thing ever.

-Steve Lavin and Billy Kennedy are both back on the bench. SJU is 3-0, TAMU 2-0. Cupcake city for both so far, though.

-Arizona and Pitt were in trouble in the second half as I typed this, maybe one or both go down.

Rider ending the game vs Pitt in brutal fashion. Yikes..

 

[Woy]

RMU beat Rider on Friday by 26. (No game recap that no one reads because I was in DC this weekend and missed the contest). Pitt beats them by 8.

RMU (-18) @ Pitt on 11/27. :smughard:

 

[Herm]

my talking up Vanderbilt worked out well for me.

Kentucky/UNC on my birthday, sweet,

So far the SEC has dropped games to Akron and Cleveland State, and we're only in the first week.

and senior laden, they will be top 25 for most of the year and get about 30 wins...they were already high on some polls.

I need to check out Cuse and UConn tonight.

 

[Warner2BruceTD]

I saw Syracuse over the weekend. They are big, they are long, and they are good. I think they will be better than UConn.

Belmont's coach has been there forever. I have two cousins that went to Mercer, and Belmont's owned the Atlantic Sun since moving there 10 years ago. I'm actually curious to see if they can play with Memphis tomorrow...

Getting my first look at the Hoyas.

They have four highly touted freshmen coming off the bench. All of them are are big and long, giving this team a different look from the guard oriented teams of the past few years. The two best players are still G's (Jason Clark & Hollis Thompson), but this team looks to be more versatile than the Wright/Freeman teams.

sidenote-If you've never seen Nate Lubick, go out of your way. He is THE stereotypical untalented, hard working, white kid. Diving on the floor, rebounding, defense, ugly play, and very awkward looking with a jew fro and bony joints. He has it all.

I'd watch just to see a white kid in a Hoya's jersey.

Big road test for the Tigers tomorrow. Coastal Carolina. I wish a mothafuckin Chanticleer fan would step to me in the streets tomorrow. I'd fuck they ass up.

Johnny O'Bryant finna show the entire city of Conway, South Carolina who he is.

Very interested to see how Tyler Adams does for the hoyas. He was close to coming to duke before ultimately ending up with hoyas. And college ball on ALL DAY?? :fap:

Adams came out to a Notorious BIG song at Midnight Madness wearing a pimp suit and carrying a pimp stick. Instant crowd favorite.

With that said, he can't crack the rotation for whatever reason. He was a DNP-CD vs. Savannah St, and he played the final five minutes of the 40 point blowout tonight. FWIW, the crowd EXPLODED when he entered the game, lol.

He appeared to be limping when he came in, even the announcers mentioned it, so maybe he's banged up.

Watched Marquette tonight.

They seem like a deep and talented team. Still got some rebounding and off-ball defense problems. Should be ranked for most of the year with a top 5-6 Big East finish.

Only other team I have been able to watch is Cal and they were pretty solid. I miss the little speedy PG and the huge nip though

 

[Bomberooski]

Gonzaga beats Washington State tonight at Gonzaga. The only thing that matters is that freshman point guard Kevin Pangos had 33 points and 9 three's (tied the school record). Oh and he was trending worldwide on Twitter.
