Picked up a couple tickets to the DePaul vs Villanova game tonight. First DePaul game since I helped schedule a fan walkout on Pat Kennedy like 15 years ago.


Looking forward to seeing Nova in person.

Another chance for you simpletons to see the most exciting basketball player in the country (including NBA) today as Trae and his #11 Sooners take on undefeated #10 TCU at 1pm.

Another chance to watch the most exciting basketball player in the world tonight as Oklahoma welcomes Ok State to Norman tonight. ESPN2, think its at 8pm.

See if Trae can top last game's 39/14 effort. Gonna be tough to do, but he seems to top every performance the very next game.

Bit of an off night for Trae vs Ok State as they were double teaming him at 3/4 court the entire game. His shooting was off, but he still managed 27 pts, 10 assists and 9 boards. Oh and his team won by 20. Not bad for an off night.

Next up is without a doubt the marquee college basketball matchup of the year if not the decade. Trae Young vs Jevon Carter Satruday! The best offensive player in the country vs the best on the ball defender in the country. Freshman vs Senior. 2 top 10 teams. Oklahoma vs Press Virginia.

Trae with 43, 11r, 8a in an OT win vs #16 TCU.

Just another day at the office.

After scoring 25 on Kansas Tues. night, Iowa State super frosh Lindell Wiggington dropped 30 on Baylor today leading the Cyclones to a solid conference win as a home dog. Two covers this week.

any one watched Virginia this year? Are they as good as their record and ranking?

Led by freshmen Lindell Wiggington and Cameron Lard (as in the porcine back fat) Iowa State trounced No. 8 Texas Tech by 18 as a 8.5 pt home underdog. They're slowly learning how to finish games.

Gotta give props to Brick. Last year he was pumping up the Purdue freshman PG Edwards as a future star. I was hesitant to believe that. Fast forward a year and Edwards has made a huge step and sure enough looks like a college star in the making.

Penn State vs Ohio State last night had the best finish of the year in CBB.

Another great game for Trae. 44 pts, 9 assists in a win over Baylor. Pretty amazing considering the bums he plays with.

Iowa State puts fifty-three (53) up on West Virginia in the first half. Has to be approaching a record vs. a Huggy team. I feel bad for West Va.--they're the poster boy for stupid conference realignment. Flying from buttfuck West Va. to Buttfuck IA in the middle of the week--not sure how they manage to be as good as they are. The African dude they have is a monster. 6'8, has to be at least 250. Look at that body.

Just like the football team, they're knocking the big guys off.

Nothing like being on a campus after an ass-kicking win like that....

They're young and bi-polar--on Saturday they lost by 23 at home to an okay TN team and basically quit. It was one of the worst home performances people can ever remember. They have two very good freshman, Wiggington and Cameron Lard. Next year in addition to the Chicago guys they landed transfers Michael Jacobson, who started at Nebraska, and Marial Shayok who started at Virginia.

How is Kentucky struggling when most draft boards have them having 4 first round talents?

Is Cal losing his touch?

Oklahoma @ Iowa State underway. Seems like everyone but Young has already tried a 3--Clones may have the worst perimeter defense in the entire country. So far he looks a little off-balance.

Post subject:  Re: College basketball 17-18 season thread

Welp, Iowa State up 17 late in the 1st half. Not the classic confrontation I was hoping for. Young looks hungover even despite the defense.

Cyclones sure are on tv a lot. They got a heck of a closing five or six games....

Yeah it's odd. The entire season is on one of the ESPNs. Young's been much more aggressive in the 2nd half but he's still a bit out of control.

Well, they're gonna win this close one....that's a pretty good tenth-place team

Not sure how Purdue can be a 1 seed right now after losing 2 straight.

Also not sure how Mich St can be a 3 right now while Kansas is a 2.

:lol: Purdue fan coming out!

If they had won one of the games this week that they lost I would completely agree.

Mich St is the bigger problem tho. They are prob going to be the #1 team in the polls and are a 3 seed. Stupid

3 out of 4 losses to the top 15 with the other being a good mid major along with many wins against top teams.

What team should have jumped them?

Fair enough. There are no better options.

It is another crazy year where there is no true #1 team and probably 8 or 10 teams that could win the whole deal
