OH MY GOD IOWA
That is the largest spread upset in the history of college basketball. The line was -31.5 Iowa.
Glad it happened to Iowa and Fran McCaffrey.
Edit: Eastern Illinois is 356 KenPom
-
Frantastic!
-

Self said yesterday “we know it’s going to be cold, but cold never called off a basketball game”

@BeddieKU23 Haha!! Was going to come here and gloat, but ya’ll gloating for me!! Hilarious loss.
-
Thanks for adding the icing on the cake.
Guy has some of the most puzzling defeats almost every year. Their fans must be joyed with him
-
Well our Ladies took their 1st loss to Nebraska tonight at Nebraska - - 85 - - 79 in 3 overtimes. - -Just couldn’t gt that one stop when needed.
We trailed by as many as 13 - -fought back and it was on from their. - -Nebraska really good. - Hadn’t lost at home -beat the crap out of Maryland by 20 plus and are 10-3 now, Nebraska had been ranked earlier this year. - -Still really proud of the Ladies took 3 overtimes to gt beat - - Still doing good ladies - - MERRY CHRISTMAS - ROCK CHALK
-
@BeddieKU23 Their fans love him, well at least most it seems. They have an overdeveloped sense of their teams skill level. Last year was kind of hilarious. Both Iowa and UW were picked to finish in the lower half of the league. While Greg Gard turned a pick of finishing 1oth into a tie for the league, Iowa turned a pick of finishing 9th into 4th and earning a bye in the BIG tournament. While Gard was hands down the winner, many Hawkeye fans Fran should have gotten it for his ‘accomplishment’ of earning a bye. And they were serious. I’m glad I’m not a homer like that!

Arizona State got absolutely wrecked by San Francisco tonight. Losing by 44 with 4:35 left
-
Dons may have scored more in the first half than ASU will score the entire game
-
Well…Looky here: “The win marked Eastern Illinois’ fourth in program history over a Power Five opponent and its first since taking down Missouri nearly six years ago to the day on Dec. 16, 2016.”
-
Oof this is gold
-
Big 12 went 4-0 last night. TCU beat Utah in a close one on the road and K St held the mighty Radford Highlanders at home to an 8 pt win. Iowa St’s game was canceled against Peyton Manning’s favorite word at the line or scrimmage.
Lots of blowout wins from the top 25 last night

Must be an oversight by Mark Emmert.

We did drop 2 spots in the rankings after humiliating them last week, so you might be on to something…

Juwan Howard got into it at the UNC game last night, which UM lost. He yelled at his players after they pulled him away from screaming at a ref. Really?
-
Star Arkansas Freshman Nick Smith, considered a Top 5 prospect for the NBA draft is out indefinitely with a knee injury. They are calling it “knee management”. Full on protect the goods mode it seems. 2nd major injury for Arkansas

I watched a bit of that game, the refs were not good. That was a physical game the refs were letting get out of control.

Mizzou up 66-36 on 16th ranked Illinois. In basketball.
What in the world
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich My complicated sports world includes Illinois as that’s where I grew up and while I will pull for them this program is a constant disappointment. One of the greatest states for producing talent and it continues to endure embarrassments like this. I was excited for the Brad Underwood hire, but not thinking he has what it takes.
Last spring when I was in the United Center for the elite 8 and they were announcing the players and coach after we won a lady screamed “F… You Bill Self”. I think Illinois fans recognize he was the one who was going to lead them to the promised land and they’re still bitter about losing him.
But as bad as Mizzou looked against us, this result is just a shocker tonight.
That being said there’s lots of shockers going on in college hoops this year. If you just look up through this thread there’s plenty of evidence of a sort of parity in our great game.
-
Little known factoid that says alot: I guess where the Dook’s basketball offices are set up, they have an entire floor for Coach Rat, and their new coach Scheyer has a little cubicle.
-
Is Mizzou good?
I mean i knew UK would struggle because their best PG is Wheeler, but damn. Maybe they shouldn’t have shoo’d off Keion Brooks
-
I’m actually serious, is the Calipari era coming to an end at UK?

Correct

So probably not then

Pretty good question to ask. I think he needs some kids to move on and we all know the who’s.
I’m wondering if they will get it together later on but so far it hasn’t looked good. I’m certainly not going to complain as his failure to win adds more separation in the all time win total

I mean I’m a big fan of them keeping him. I’m not sure anyone has ever squandered more talent in the history of basketball.

I mean Nebraska just ate how much money to fire Frost early? If the boosters get upset enough the money is secondary.

His buyout is 52 million but okay

I tend to agree there. I’m not a fan of him but I respect him still. Not sure he’s adapted to the game as of late.

Imagine losing to Missouri in basketball instead of simply smoking them. They looked like a YMCA team against us. Maybe we are really good and that Self guy is a decent coach.

Missouri also smoked Illinois. At this point, I think it’d be safe to say Missouri is probably an at-large team at this point.
-
Eek, Gonz beat EAQ the score says. Now EAQ, I haven’t even clicked to see who EAQ is but I’m guessing they’re not in the top uh, 200?
Eastern Australian Queensland? Emporia Aquifer? Earl and Quinton? Estonia, Armenia and Qatar? Everybody’s Aunt Queeny? Anyways, congrats Gonz for their 78 point victory.
-
Who do fans root for games between Missouri and Kentucky.
I root for Missouri.
-
So nice watching Tucky get SMOKED.
-
@AsadZ I root for a scoreless tie.
-
I root against UK even more than Mizzou. Even though our true rivalry is with Mizzou… UK is on our level (except for class).
With that UK loss to Mizzou we gained one more game in the overall wins competition plus… I just can’t stand Calipari. To me, he has always been a subpar D1 coach who only exists on recruiting.
Mizzou is a much better team after our beat down. I felt sure they would improve because beat downs tend to do that to teams… especially undefeated teams.
-
-
Oh my. That’s a special place
-
@drgnslayr I had made a comment during the MO game thread that this MO team can do some damage provided they play under control.
-
@BShark Sounds like me after any KU loss. Especially to KSU, which fortunately doesn’t happen often.
-
I can’t imagine Kansas having a group of numbskulls like that. I hate to inject politics in this… so I won’t… I mean… I won’t blame a political party. I will just say that there is some pretty unintelligible people out there who live in a world of hate, disinformation, and now fueled by conspiracy theories. No… it doesn’t definitely mean GOPrs because I’ve known these traits in both parties. I’m bringing that group to attention because the threat you posted sounds like that type of crowd.
Do we have a large amount of these followers at Kansas? I hope not. I hope no one is talking about our coaches, players, and administration like this.
I hope people don’t respond to my post here with politics. I only mentioned it because it is constantly being mentioned in politics today.

Iowa 50, Nebraska 66
The hits keep coming for Fran

And Michigan loses to Central Michigan. Central Michigan is ranked 269th on KenPom
