College Basketball 2010-11

Well, at least they'll get a shot at one of the best 3 teams in the tournament this year. Plus, it's not like they haven't played with anyone at that level yet, having taken Texas to OT and blowing the game against OSU. Hoping there's no six minute letdown in the second half for this one, though.

 

UI has played UT, OSU, Purdue, and Wisc close. No reason to think they can't do the same (or beat) KU, especially with the KU's penchant for playing only half a game. I really wanted UNLV to win that game.

 

Same as Illinois

You are the second best team in America. We are a 9 seed. Sack up.

I demand that all Illinois and KU fans on this board be in this thread for the duration of the game on Sunday. Let's throw all the Missouri fans in there for balance.

 

Only if I'm allowed to change which team I'm insulting at my leisure.

 

Of course. That's the beauty of throwing Missouri fans into a KU/Illinois game.

Doesnt sound good for Richmond for Sunday. When asked Richmonds status for Sunday Weber basically avoided the question saying they are just happy for the team right now and etc... UGH

Man I really hope Jereme doesn't transfer.

[Irrelevant Dude]

There have been a couple of upsets but only one or two down to the wire games today. This evening hasnt had one close game.

I don't know why, but it always seems like Thursday has more upsets and better games.

i'll wallow in pessimism, and you'll like it.

Yea I hope not either. However, Richmonds attitude or behavior or whatever you want to call it is starting to wear thin on me. He had issues while in high school, and these issues are following him to college now. I think its time for Jereme to grow the [expletive] up, and learn to be a part of a team. All the talent in the world doesn't mean jack if you cant follow rules.

Oh I agree, I hate Weber but he's fine with me for how he handled this.

Only two perfect brackets on ESPN left through 29 games but both have Georgetown so barring a miracle there will be none left.

 

There are also none left on Yahoo. It says one guy is still perfect but it hasn't updated for the Illinois game and he had UNLV winning.

 

That Georgetown game hit a lot of people. There are only 19 brackets on ESPN which got 31 of 32 correct, only three on Yahoo and one on CBS Sports.

This seems to be a brutal year, back when Wisconsin made their crazy run to the elite 8 10 or so years ago, it was their sweet 16 win that knocked out the last perfect brackets

9:40 pm ET start time for ND/Florida State which could be later based on how the Purdue/VCU game goes. It'll be a late night Sunday evening.

Kansas v. Illinois. Doomsday has finally arrived.

Kansas v. Illinois. Doomsday has finally arrived.

Too bad all the main players on the court are gone. Wish this would have happened in '05 or '06.

[Outshined_One]

God, I hope Kentucky goes down in flames.

hey snood, is selby playing hurt right now? what the hell has happened to him? he started off strong this season and has kind of been blah the rest of the year. im assuming hes hampered by injuries? and at this point, is it safe to assume he will be back next season?

he has a stress reaction in his foot. they say he's at 80%. I assume he'll be back, but you never know.

Northwestern just advanced to the third round of the NIT, which marks the best Northwestern has ever done in the postseason.

I know he's been hurt, but what's the difference between josh selby and willie warren? i dont see much

By 18 points on the road, no less. Sad, but I'll take it! \:D/

[Careless]

Nice end to the half, Kentucky

[Outshined_One]

The last minute of this half has been ludicrous. Damn.

[Keener98]

The refs in this Kentucky game have been pretty bad this 1st half.

[Outshined_One]

What the hell, CBS has a boudoir? Why the hell is everyone sitting in a semi-circle in leather chairs?

More games against the ACC, please.

Aside from Bosh getting smacked in the face, I've almost never seen someone as surprised to receive a pass as that guy on WV
