February 15, 201313 yr Why are minnesota fans groaning. Evans at the line or Brust shooting a 3? You take evans at the line this is a gift.
February 15, 201313 yr Bo Ryan has been making some odd choices lately. Not fouling immediately is rough.
February 15, 201313 yr Um, guys? When there's 30 seconds left and you're down 3 with no shot clock going, you need to foul...or at least do something besides watch them dribble.
February 15, 201313 yr Bo has been less than stellar at the end of games recently. Hes made a few really bad decisions. One game he didnt realize how many fouls there were. I dont know whats going on.
February 15, 201313 yr QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Feb 14, 2013 -> 07:59 PM) Fun while it lasted, good effort cats! Welcome to watching OSU-NW games. Always close, grind em out affairs. NW plays OSU tough for some reason. A few years ago a 2-3 zone would have been a disaster as Lighty, Buford and Diebler would have shot them out of it. This year, it was brilliant. Plus making 50+ percent of your 3's is always good.
February 16, 201313 yr Oladipo rolled his ankle at the end of the first half here. Just making it back out onto the court after an extended 1/2time. Could be important by the time Michigan State rolls around.
February 16, 201313 yr Is Kentucky still a tournament team without Noel? They were fringe top 25 with him. They just lost by 30 at Tennessee without him. Given their overall resume resembles an 8 or 9 seed as is they will probably need to get a quality win without him to show the current team is worthy.
February 16, 201313 yr The crowd at Assembly Hall is chanting "Ball State's better". I can't stop laughing.

Given their overall resume resembles an 8 or 9 seed as is they will probably need to get a quality win without him to show the current team is worthy. Not without beating Florida or perhaps Missouri. The SEC sucks this year so the number of wins isn't a good barometer. Right now, Kentucky's best win is against Maryland. @ Mississippi was a decent win only because it was on the road. But Ole Miss is a house of cards, as we've seen lately losing 4 out of 5. Ole Miss' ONLY quality win this year was at home against Missouri, who was without Bowers. UK will be lucky to win 4 more regular season games, likely 3 or less.
February 16, 201313 yr Rivalry games are supposed to be exciting. That was a total snooze fest. Purdue never had a chance. Tuesday night will be much, much different. Whoever wins Tuesday night is certainly in the driver's seat to win the Big Ten. I'm assuming Oladipo will be fine.

They beat Purdue by almost a combined 70 pts this year.

February 17, 201313 yr Now that Iowa State won again, I can finally like basketball again. I still have zero clue how TCU beat Kansas. Should be a fun ending to the year with the top 6 teams all within two games of each other after tonight. The top two teams have yet to go to Ames yet, where I'll just mention that ISU has a 21 game winning streak.
February 17, 201313 yr QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Feb 16, 2013 -> 07:38 PM) for my SIU brethren into sadomasochism, SIU/MSU is on ESPN3 They're obviously playing a whole lot better the last few weeks. Hopefully they can keep it up into the Lou and at least get out of Thursday.
February 17, 201313 yr QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Feb 16, 2013 -> 07:38 PM) for my SIU brethren into sadomasochism, SIU/MSU is on ESPN3 I was thinking about it today. Even with Michigan being good again, I really miss SIU being good more. Just sad.
February 17, 201313 yr SIU is not good this season, but they are scrappy. They have lost a lot of close games that they should not have even been in. Ultimately their lack of size has really killed them, only having Dantiel Daniels and Davante Drinkard as true big men has really killed them. Especially given the fact that Daniels has been injured a lot this season.
February 17, 201313 yr Wash state hits a 3 with 4 seconds left in ot to tie Oregon and then intentionally fouls, Oregon hits 2 fts and wins. Ha ha ha.
February 17, 201313 yr QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Feb 16, 2013 -> 03:01 PM) The crowd at Assembly Hall is chanting "Ball State's better". I can't stop laughing. This is something Indiana fans are very familiar with since Ball State has beat them in football the last two years.
February 17, 201313 yr Can we keep the streak going and beat the purple cats? Can't see this being anything but a really tight game.
