College Basketball 2013-2014

[Smack]

Northwestern has IU doubled up at the under 8 timeout. Oh wait, did I mention it's a 2 possession game?

[SouthSideRyan]

5 minutes left, tie game.

 

It's Jonny Marlin time!

You should be banned from the tournament if you lose to this Northwestern team at home.

Pretty sure IU and Illinois will be this year.

Illinois lost on the road.

[abuck1220]

oh i just realized the reason it's impossible to win on the road in college bball is because refs are terrible.

[Sosa21MVP]

Collins > Crean

[abuck1220]

what's the record for most wins to start the season and then not making the tournament

[snoodmonger]

I'm so sick of watching Marcus Smart flop.

[abuck1220]

yeah if you're going to review that stuff to potentially T up the offender, you should T up a guy for flopping.

[Careless]

North Carolina has halted the research of reading specialist Mary Willingham until she receives approval from a review board and is investigating statements she made questioning the literacy level of Tar Heels athletes.

They really do not want people thinking about the fact that it never could have been a two person conspiracy.

he didnt even get hit as far as i could tell. Selden still got a T.

[sneakypower]

beating Bo Ryan is all i ever dreamt it would be, and more

 

also, i'm gonna start calling Stauskas "White Jordan"

[UMFan83]

That's Michigan 's first road win against an AP top-5 team since Dec. 5, 1964 at Duke. A 36-game losing streak that lasted nearly 50 years

[sneakypower]

I would like to know how historically unlucky this illini team is and its relation to my fandom

My bad. Point still remains.

Uhhh...what??

 

Did you expect them to contend for the conference title or something?

No, painting the Illini as being unlucky just helps him build up the "universe is out to get sulley" narrative. As if the universe give a [expletive] about him.

 

I think there was a lot of bad luck in the NW game, but this losing streak is all about bad offense. Not unlucky, just bad. The problem is that all of the real talent (outside of Rice) are raw freshmen. After losing to Purdue and NW, which were games that were "put it in the win column" games before the B1G season started, it's gonna be tough sledding getting into the tournament.

[illiniguy]

Tourney isn't happening. Not enough wins left at all. Am I crazy for thinking Groce is an idiot for not playing Hill in the final 10 minute ever?

[bcl412]

Marble and White have 1 point combined at Iowa's only down 2 at half. Could be worse I guess.

[bcl412]

Iowa falls down 10 points in the last 2 minutes of the first half and proceeds to outscore Minnesota by 31 points. Tough game at Michigan on Wednesday.
