Today's Games Thread
-
Wow Rutgers choked … they had Grimes and Houston … had em
-
Both Arkansas and Houston demonstrating how to not lose. Neither actually won. Their opponents just couldn’t execute basic plays.
-
Yep, Rutgers blew it.
-
Update: down 30 percentile points on ESPN over the last two hours. NOT GREAT BOB
-
GO FIGHTING BILLY EUGENES
-
Based on every other game today, I’m pretty sure I know what’s going to happen in this ORU UF game.
-
To be specific, one of the two teams will have a shot to win and blow it
-
EXPECT A(NOTHER) MIRACLE
Absolutely nutso tournament
-
Nice try, Florida.
-
Nova wins big over the Mean Green.
Weird seeing Jay Wright in a sweater. What happened to the D’Annunzio suits?
Jeez, if this keeps up he’ll start to look like Belichick,
-
Okie St. getting spanked at halftime by Oregon St. 44-30.
-
OSU might still win this one
-
Pathetic showing from the B12 today other than Baylor.
-
I have just today seen more abysmally missed shots from < 3 feet than I have seen in entire tournaments.
-
Refs have called two bogus fouls, one on each team in the last minute.
-
Boy that escalated quickly
-
60 free-throws have been shot in this game already. So ya, pretty much refball. Surprised no one has fouled out yet.
-
Speaking of Oklahoma State, did anyone catch the wrestler AJ Ferrari last night? 197 pounder. Total stud wrestler, but he’s a freshman and thinks he’s a pro wrestler because he’s always smack talking, posing, flexing his enormous biceps, etc. There’s an all time great heavyweight right now from Minnesota who is actually named Gable Dan Stevenson. This freshman just said “Next year I’m moving up to heavyweight so I can beat you”.
-
Cade is not playing to his strengths. He’s a jumbo PG, not a guy you want playing hero ball. Neutralizes his biggest strength.
-
This is just awful basketball by the way. Cade Cunningham is the top pick in the draft but can’t score against Oregon St.? LOL, some dude just shot an airball. His shooting form looked worse than my shot.
-
28% shooting for Oklahoma St. Not going to beat anyone doing that. Maybe Texas.
-
And the Big 12 goes 0-for-3 on the day. Meanwhile, the much-maligned Pac-12 is 6 and 0.
Hope we can do something about that tomorrow against USC.
-
@wissox yep, knock on Cade has always been he’s a streaky shooter. Crazy effort from Oregon State too. Hats off to the beavers of Tinkle.
I can’t help myself
-
Wayne Tinkle wins in Hinkle.
-
@nwhawkfan PHOF!!
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich oklahoma?
-
@approxinfinity Just meant from yesterday’s games. Oklahoma had a good effort against Missouri for sure.
-
Early impression of the Oregon/Iowa game. Race to 100
-
Iowa in 10 words or less. 4 jump shooters around 1 space eating big
-
Oregon has a 6’6 guy playing the 5. Insane to think that works
-
If you’re in the P12 conference, apparently everything works.
-
Other thoughts, Oregon likes to Dunk. It helps when Iowa can’t defend anything. Their 5 is a matchup problem due to his inside/out ability but Dave would have 4/5 inches on him. He’s basically Marcus Garrett height with 30 pounds.
-
Garza already has 12 points, he’s on pace for about 50. We’ll see if he can keep that up or if the speed of the game is going to wear him out.
-
He’s the entire offense other then some guys making open 3’s. Been Iowa all year
-
Hot Take: Chris Duarte will be drafted before Luke Garza
-
Exciting game. 70 points scored in 13 minutes. Both of these teams are bad matchups for KU
-
@BeddieKU23 Iowa in 10 words or less. No Sweet 16’s this century. Whiny Brat coach.
-
Garza has 20. there’s 4 minutes remaining in the first half
-
I was hoping to bait you into commenting
-
This is an offensive clinic. 44-44 with 2 to go before half
-
@BeddieKU23 does either team even have a defensive game plan?
-
The best defense is a good offense sort of game plan for both teams.
-
Iowa is just hoping they go cold from outside. Their zone is awful
-
None, Self would have already quit if we ever played defense like both of these teams
-
Some Iowa players were saying seriously that they were the best defensive team in the country before the tournament started. How’s that going right now?
-
Talk about blowing smoke up their own
-
Their man was even worse tbh
-
Can’t remember the last time I saw a half with 102 pts total
-
Hot Take: Iowa couldn’t guard me and 4 other bucketeers
-
There is no one on the floor that Garza can guard. That is really killing them. Also, when you make everything you look really good. This is the first time I have watched Oregon at all and they look damn good.
