  1. They played Florida, Notre Dame, and Oklahoma State in non-conference. Normally that would be a tough slate of games. No ones arguing that they didn't try to have a tough schedule, just that they didn't.
  2. Good god, this. Derrick is 6th in the league in 3PA per game with 6 a game at just about 30% shooting. There are 38 players averaging more than 4 3PA per game and only one player is shooting as badly as him...Kobe
  3. OSU would default to the Rose Bowl right? or is the Rose one of the playoff sites? Normally OSU would default to the Rose in this scenario, but the Rose is a semifinal game. OSU would get an auto bid to one of the other NY6 games. Same applies to the Big 12. If the committee picked OSU, whoever the B12 decided was the champ (they'll pick someone if neither TCU or Baylor make it) would normally default to the Sugar, but since that's the other semifinal they'd get an auto bid somewhere else. In this case, of course, both would get NY6 games anyway by virtue of their ranking. It's a little complicated. I've read that if neither Big 12 team gets picked for the playoff, Baylor would go to Cotton by virtue of head to head win and TCU to the Holiday Bowl. What a potential fall from 3rd playoff spot to Holiday bowl after winning a game against a conference opponent by 52 points.
  4. There is no way to justify OSU taking one of the playoff spots right? Bama and Oregon blew out their conference championship games, Florida State is undefeated and TCU destroyed their bad opponent. If TCU was 4 I could see a committee argument that OSU can jump them but I cannot see OSU jumping FSU and I can't see TCU dropping below FSU and OSU just because TCU had a cupcake their last game.
  5. I almost think the committee moved TCU to 3 last week to prevent them from the controversy of bumping a team from the playoff after a blowout victory. I don't know if that makes any sense, I just came up with that
  6. Bears and Bulls a combined 4-9 at home and 13-7 on road
  7. Meh they will face a team in the playoffs that has a 4 that can actually guard stretch 4s and will lose. The bulls just have too many players playing hurt or out of basketball shape right now. The defense is starting to become a major concern though. It's just not getting better...
  8. What else can he do? He can't create a shot and can't create shots for other. He thinks he's Draymond Green
  9. Just beat the Ducks, Kings, Blues, Canadiens, and Predators, all likely playoff teams, in regulation and contenders by a combined score of 19-7.
  10. Bulls go on 25- 7 run, GS immediately responds with a 30-10 run
  11. I could be wrong but didn't one of the mid-majors who have their conference tournament early schedule a non-conference game AFTER their tournament? I want to say it was a Midwestern team and they were on the bubble for an at large bid at the time
  12. My friend reasoned that UM has 1 WTF loss per season 11: Ohio (in the tourney) 12: winless in B1G Penn State 13: UNC-Charlotte 14: NJIT of course NJIT is by far the worst and this one was at home. Damn.
  13. Oh wow, I'm watching now. 4 point deficit with 2:30 or so left. NJIT has scored on their last 10-11 possessions in a row. They are literally unstoppable. Shooting 61% from the floor and 70% from 3
  14. Make that 11-16. NJIT up 4 with 2.5 mins left
  15. Jesus. Michigan is losing at home to NJIT by 7 with 9 mins left NJIT 10-15 from 3 in the game. Several of them off balanced and heavily contested
  16. Probably trying to temper expectations but whatever. You need to spend like $40 million to even have a respectable mid market payroll.
  17. Yeah I saw that (Cowherd's rumor). He said it isn't someone who has been discussed. Honestly I have no idea who that is. Any guesses?
  18. After calming down from my rant yesterday, I now agree they probably wont make a change. That said, if it continues to get worse, things might change.
  19. This is so stupid. Why the hell would he be house shopping before he makes his decision? He has 3 months until Spring Training, are you telling me he's too busy the rest of the offseason to look for houses? Or that he needs to see what the Chicago housing market looks like before making a decision? I'm going to unfollow Tom Loxas on twitter on this alone.
  20. Man our opponents have been killing us in the media this year
  21. 2 stats I came across this morning: Cutler's YPA is 6.9, which is the the 3rd lowest among qualified QBs in the league, ahead of only Kyle Orton and Alex Smith. Also before last night the Bears had only 36 plays that went for 20 or more yards, which is 29th in the NFL. I turned it off during some of the garbage time, but in the first 3 quarters I don't remember many 20+ yard plays, so I'm guessing that number isn't much higher this morning.
  22. Dude it's garbage time
  23. The 2014 Bears are not allowed to score 30 points in a game
