College Basketball 2011-2012

Ugh, only down 1, but only 2.9 seconds left and the key is 0 timeouts left. Even if we can foul them in time, if they miss the 2nd one, there's no way UM gets off a decent shot. Only hope is a steal and quick bucket. How awesome would that be?

[UMFan83]

As I predicted, lack of TOs takes away Michigan's last chance. I hate when coaches manage to use all their TO's in a close game. It just shouldn't happen IMO.

[rawaction]

Ugh. What a stupid game. Reminded me of the NC State game. Michigan didn't have a prayer against either Zeller or Watford in the post, yet Zeller and Watford don't get a single touch in the post in the last 5 minutes. And it wasn't because they couldn't get open. Verdell Jones is going to be the death of me. Made a handful of really good passes and hit the biggest shot of the game, but he refuses to feed the post and generally sucks at basketball.

And he missed the front end of two 1 and 1's with under 3 minutes.

Sloppy second half for IU but they did just enough. On to Penn St. On Sunday.

Yeah seriously, I have no idea why they didn't go inside at all. I was thanking them every time they didn't.

 

Indiana shot ~55%, shot 7 for 11 for 3 and took 8 more FTAs and still only won by 2 at home. A wins a win though, especially over a ranked team.

Mike Dixon has been getting phone calls from K-State fans this week. Tadow, is this you?!

(I blacked out the numbers just in case)

[Castro13]

Ed Hightower is a piece of [expletive]

[bukie]

Ugh, all three point jumpers and turnovers. This is supposed to be the only gimme game you have, Illini.

[Formerly Snayke]

I hate Manhattan.

[Castro13]

If illinois loses to nebraska Weber better be fired when game ends

[bukie]

Not often a shooting guard has a 10-11 shooting day.

[bukie]

A Brandon Paul 3 is never the shot you want. Even if it's open.

[bukie]

Ugh, have to get the rebound on a missed FT. Especially when the team shoots 80% from the line.

 

Paul should be shooting nothing but dunks from here on out.

[Magnetic Curses]

bertrand is actually a very effective slasher, something we haven't had in a long time. i hope he keeps it up.

Paul is also a good slasher. His problem is that he thinks he's also a good shooter, and people will give him the shot every time.

he's a legendarily bad shooter.

Iowa has made 5 field goals in the first half and are only down 9 to OSU. If they hit some shots they have a chance.

I wish he'd play within his limits and be really good. When he tries to jump shoot he kills us.

Man Bertrand has been awesome this year I bet his coach thinks he's great.

 

Post game interview Bruce Weber said, "I don't really like them, but they are going in." That was in reference to his floaters. He's and his floaters are the big reason you aren't 0-4 in the B1G, you [expletive].

25 points is incredible, that's almost half of the team's total.

Why can't Bruce ever give a true compliment? Why must everything be a slight? God I hate the man.

Ohio State is really good.

in the guy's defense, the other comments he made about bertrand were very complimentary.

 

if DJ's going to be out for a few games, we need to get myke into the starting lineup.

Eh, I'll readily admit my hatred of him is so severe now I can't be objective. I too would like to see Myke get more minutes. Kid can score. We need that.
