Always a great day when Duke loses
-
A Duke loss and a Mildcat loss we are up and rolling folks
-
#8 Creighton lost to Providence in a Big East quarterfinal.
-
Duke and Creighton both losing might keep us on the 3 line

Very much doubt it. Our seed will likely depend on McCullar and Dickinson’s health. We’ll likely be a 4 seed at best.
-
I’m thinking 4 possibly 5, they may give us 4 with Hunter and Kevin being back. We are 19th in Net, 22nd in KenPom and 17th in RPI. They may give us a little lead way because of injuries but prob the 3rd or 4th 4 seed.
-
Baylor and Cincinnati in a tight one, how many do the bearcats need to get in?
-
I was just looking and interesting that No bracket projections even show Cincinnati on the bubble just out. KSU is on the bubble with a worse record and a head to head loss to them last week. Cincinnati KenPom: 33, KSU: 70, Net Cincinnati: 34, KSU: 68 and RPI Cincinnati: 68, KSU: 71. Just seems interesting to me that would be the case.

The late window got bonkers

Maybe we should rename this thread “Post-season Schadenfreude”.
There is sure to be more today. Kentucky? Could UConn lose?
-
I thought we were bad cryin and moanin and bitchin about how bad this Season has turned out, Wasa checking out various sites last night and came across the live podcast from the Duke site right after their loss to NC State last night.
Mercy you would think the world was coming to an end. Talking about how they had NO BENCH-- -hmmm sound familiar? They are playing only like six players , who they should invite to come back next year, who should be shown the door , Talking about How if they only gonna play six WHY do they have all these guys and how they are losing Powers, how he won’t be back.
Giving Scheyer hell for not playing guys and giving them experience when they are up 15 points- -20 points late so they can gain expeience lol - – Guess we aren’t the only fans not happy
-
Tennessee is going down. - -down 14 to Mississippi St
-
UNC is now in the driver’s seat for the 4th 1 seed.
-
Texas A&M is up 10 over UK with 4:55 left.
-
@Gorilla72 Kentucky’s defense is so, so bad. I’d hate to see what these boards would be like if our defense was that bad.
-
CBB is so bad across the board lol
-
I pray we don’t get Nebraska as a matchup.
-
Kesei is one of my favorite players to watch. Just the loosest cannon
-
Arizona about to lose to Oregon…maybe
-
@rcjhdraft Fred Hoiberg’s got them playing well.
-
Generally conference tournament results don’t matter that much.

Every bubble team will be cheering for Washington St. to win the final Pac 12 title as Oregon is a bid stealer and Colorado is a bubble team.
-

Depends. Conference tournament results are going to be the reason UNC gets tge 4th 1 seed this year since they’re the only contender to reach their conference tournament championship game. It also very much matters for bubble teams as they want to make a run to take themselves put of harms way of the bid stealing teams that inevitably win some of the mid major tournaments.
-
Colorado just beat Washington St. to advance to the Pac 12 title game against Oregon. That’s a game that all bubble teams will be watching since Oregon will be looking to steal a bid.
The ACC title game will be huge for the bubble as well as NC State could steal a bid as well if they win against UNC.
The American semifinals are also going to be worth watching as FAU is the only at large team in that league. If they lose, that’s another bid steal. Regular season champs USF might be 24-6, but have not played a Quad 1 game all season and have 2 Quad 4 losses along with a NET ranking of 78.
-
If you watch as much BIG basketball as I do you really understand why Purdue flames out early. Zach gets so many calls by these refs. We get so pissed watching these games when we play them. 15 fouls against UW in the 1st half. 16 times this season UW has committed fewer fouls in a game. People get mad at Edey, it’s really not his fault they call it like that.
-
@wissox Zach got 2 quick fouls to start off.
-
I’m going out an pick Champion, I’m going to say Hoston claims the title. They for one just don’t seem to get rattled, example last night Tech hits them hard in their come back before half - - Houston responds with a 31-5 run. I have seen how they go on runs, I think they said they have over 30-- -10-0 uns this season. they play you into their game - -their tempo, their defense just smothers you , forcing you to take some really bad shots - - -shot clock shots. They really don’t turn the ball over that much , Shead a complete player , cryer sems to be on his game - -Francis solid - -Sharp really solid - just seem they have what it takes for sure. - -I say they win this year
-
@Crimsonorblue22 He did, but they kept calling crap fouls against Badgers. Zach has mauled two shooters in the 2nd half and not got whistled. He’s still at 2 fouls in last minute of the game.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 He also bloodied the nose of a Badger shooter and didn’t get a foul called.
-
The Zach Edey protection plan is in full effect now in overtime.
-

It’s absurd. I feel bad for Wisconsin in a game I don’t really care about because the officiating is THAT BAD.
-
@BShark What’s bad is it happened yesterday, and last Sunday, and before that.
-
Yeah! @wissox
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Yes satisfying win for sure.
-
@wissox is wiscy ranked?
-
@wissox congrats buddy, I get mad because of Hunter got half the calls Zach does, he average 5 more points a game and it would be very helpful lol.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 They were up to #6 in mid January and 8-1 in BIG. Then they blew a 20 point lead at Nebraska, and lost 8 of 11. A backup guards injury seemed to impact them as the Badgers are thin in that position. He’s back now and they’re playing better.
-
@kjayhawks Oh man I don’t even wish that on our opponents. It is so frustrating to watch. It’s inexplicable that Edey can run into a set Tyler Wahl at the top of the key and flatten him and get the call. That was one of about 10 head scratchers today.
-
@wissox so not ranked now?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 No. Since injured back up came back they’re 4-1.

Was Morningstar recruited over? I dont remember. I remember people bitching about him starting
-
The ability to put the ball throught the hoop is a fickle thing: Houston is shooting 28% and only 2/11, 18% from 3. Strange how an entire team shoots poorly for a half. But , only 7 pts down at the half, so things may change.

No, he redshirt the national title season which would’ve been his sophomore season.

See my comment on the other post, Brady missed the 1st semester that year because of his DUI as well so it wasn’t like there was a real decision to made at that time over who to start.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 Xavier was always going to start. The only real competition was Tyshawn vs Brady
-
Ok gotcha, forgot about that part of the morningstar chapter
-
Iowa State is crushing Houston

Congrats on the Super Bowl win Clones!
