College Basketball 2007-2008

As for IU not being a top 10 team....name 10 teams better. Kansas, Memphis, UNC, UCLA are all clearly better. Washington St and Georgetown are pretty good, and probably better.

 

My post on page 66 of this thread. One you (illiniguy) clearly read, because you took exception to it and responded to it by naming about 10 other teams you thought were better (I'd like to point out that of those teams Xavier, Dayton, Butler, and Texas A&M all lost to non-ranked teams). So right there, I named two 1-loss teams that I think are better than IU, and Georgetown was a 1-loss team when I posted that. How convenient of you to forget that. And again, I have repeatedly called UCLA the best team in the nation in this thread.

My bad, I mix a lot of you IU fans up. If Minn and Illinois shoot free throws like most girls junior high teams you lose twice this past week. Teams start to lose on the road in conference.

 

And if IU doesn't throw the ball away like middle school girls..... IU played a lot less like they have shown they can than Illinois and Minnesota.

AS for the whole exploding at a joke Raw made, are you kidding me? All we did was point out how you weren't even close.

 

I over-reacted a bit in the thread last night. I had just had a huge argument about this stuff with my buddy who is an big UofI fan and I carried that over to this convo.

 

Anyway, UofI looking decent early at PU.

no, they just look less horrible than Purdue. How many god awful bricks have they put up so far? Plus stupid fouls and traveling calls. This is a pretty crappy basketball game right now

SIU brand basketball is bad (aesthetically at least) for the Big Ten. Thankfully Lowery didn't jump in also.

CBS is wasting Gus Johnson's talents by giving him the half time show.

[Andy]

Harangody still got 13 and 8 but it took him 13 FG attempts to get those 13. I'm not buying ND as a tourney team until they do something about that 1-4 record away from home (with the one win over Monmouth in the Virgin Islands).

Why do I bother?

 

Illinois plays a good 1st half, blows it in the 2nd half off of foul trouble and the inability to make free throws or keep Chester Frazier tied up in the locker room. Part 10.

I don't know how anyone can watch UNC and think they're the best team in the country.

Couple of upset alerts:

 

No. 1 UNC is down 2 to Maryland with 11 minutes to go.

No. 4 UCLA is up 2 over USC with 11 to go.

No. 7 Tennessee is up 2 over OSU with 12 to go.

No. 9 Texas A&M is down 2 to Kansas State at halftime.

I came here to say that even though Carolina was down by 11, everyone in the triangle area knew they would pull it out. By the time I get here, its already tied.

Luc Richard Mbah a Moute with a concussion, out for the game. :(

[SouthSideRyan]

Oh and sorry Weske.

[snoodmonger]

Mayo shoots too many jumpers.

[Derwood]

the Big 10 is horrible this year. horrible. 4 teams in the dance woudl be a gift

[snoodmonger]

Maryland needs to catch the rebounds that bounce off their hands. And that looked like an offensive foul on love in the UCLA game.

[Vanilla Ice]

I still know Carolina will pull this off, even though its tied with a mintue to go and maryland on the free throw line

[snoodmonger]

too many good games...don't know what to watch.

What a comically horrible call to give UNC the ball with 10 seconds left.

Looked like a Maryland guy hit the ball out of the hands of the UNC player on the replay.

[snoodmonger]

c'mon terps!

[Guest]

And UNC goes down.

 

EDIT: UCLA down 4 with 56.6 to go.

8 on 5 at Pauley. And it's USC with the 8.

 

Awful way to lose.
