College Basketball 2011-2012

Excellent work by BTN getting the close up on the Northwestern students saying [expletive]. (Why I'm not quite sure)

[da bears]

phew. iowa state is a good team. they should definitely make the tourney.

[SouthSideRyan]

Somebody's getting shoved in the back on every single rebound in this NU/OSU game.

[UMFan83]

Wow, I thought South Florida was a product of a somewhat easy Big East schedule but they just beat Cincinnati and won at Louisville tonight. I think they are tourney bound.

[hawkeyecub]

The 1st half of Iowa/Nebraska was hideous. 2nd half has been better.

[abuck1220]

you gotta play really well to overcome the officiating you're going to get in columbia, and isu kinda played like garbage. got nothing from christopherson and allen for most of the game.

[abuck1220]

and nice friggin fireworks delay, mizzou. typical rednecks. you belong in the SEC.

[UMFan83]

You gotta somehow hit that layup Shurna

[SouthSideRyan]

That was a really poor jump ball call.

[SouthSideRyan]

Ohio State has no idea why they're a good basketball team. Nothing but jump shots down the stretch.

[UMFan83]

Wow Ohio State is imploding. Come on NU win this!

[abuck1220]

 

Regarding Iowa, his whole point was if they won out and got one in the Big Ten Tournament, they could definitely steal a bid. At 19-14, 10-8 in the best conference in the country and with 4 top 25 wins he was probably right.

 

come on, don't make me be one of those cyclone fans that hate iowa. their rpi was like 127 before the illinois loss. it would have been very hard for them to crack the top 100 even if they had won out + one in the tourney. i don't care how bad the bubble is, you don't go to the tournament losing to campbell, clemson and nebraska at home.

[SouthSideRyan]

Haha, Ohio State is going to lose in the first weekend again aren't they.

[UMFan83]

Wow....the game looked to be over but NU stole it right out of OSU's hands. Gotta like that. They might need a 3 now.

He was probably talking about the fact that the committee doesn't look at trash stats like RPI anymore.

[UMFan83]

WOW!!

 

I really hope Ohio State doesn't score here.

[SouthSideRyan]

Gus has been begging for that for the last 3 minutes.

you better hope so.

[SouthSideRyan]

I bet the ball never touches Sullinger's hands on this possession. I predict William Buford chucking a contested 24 footer.

[abuck1220]

give him a little more space, why don't you.

[SouthSideRyan]

Oh, so Ohio State did remember.

[abuck1220]

well, that was super easy.

[da bears]

what the [expletive] northwestern

[Derwood]

Haha, Ohio State is going to lose in the first weekend again aren't they.

 

that's pretty much the sentiment around here. #4 seed in the tourney and out by the Sweet Sixteen

[UMFan83]

Wow...I feel bad for Northwestern fans. Those are 2 extremely heartbreaking losses to Michigan and Ohio State. :(

 

I don't think they'll make it now unless they beat one of the top 5 teams in the BTT and get help. Dammit
