Wisconsin always gets terrible games. They played UVA this year.

 

At least it has the story line of "Tony Bennett", but id rather Wisconsin play an up tempo team for a clash of styles, especially instead of a rematch.

I would have preferred Illinois/ND

 

You want no part of Notre Dame in December. December-January are ND's best months. Of course they always suck in March but they're absolutely awesome in December. Mike Brey is Mr. December.

I don't even care from a winning standpoint, more from an interest standpoint.

 

Plus, with Groce I'm not exactly afraid of being outcoached by Brey. Maybe outmanned.

Why Maryland for OSU, seems weird.

I have to imagine the Big10 had to do some posturing to ensure that Maryland wasnt left out.

Yeah but dont they usually line them up by success the prior year? OSU finished second in the regular season and won the conference tourney title. Duke, Miami or UNC makes alot more sense.

Prediction

 

 

Tuesday, Dec. 3

Florida State at Minnesota

Illinois at Georgia Tech

Indiana at Syracuse

Michigan at Duke

Notre Dame at Iowa

Penn State at Pittsburgh

Wednesday, Dec. 4

Boston College at Purdue

Maryland at Ohio State

Miami, FL at Nebraska

North Carolina at Michigan State

Northwestern at North Carolina State

Wisconsin at Virginia

After hearing Groce...I will be shocked if Henry doesn't transfer.

hearing him where? what did he say? i thought it was already official?

I've seen nothing official, though it seems everything but.

 

Thomas, Groce, Beckman on 670 (still going).

I liked them talking about how creepy of a person Tom Crean is.

Well, he does drink his own piss during games.....

Michigan at Duke is intriguing since both schools lost big players.

And his piss is brown.

What'd they say? Just that, or did they give examples? Just curious what was said.

I remember a year or two ago, there were a bunch of questions on the forums asking what the hell was in that water bottle. Apparently it's some herbal uber energy drink or something. It looks disgusting.

Boers was asking why the f*** he's so weird, what's wrong with that guy, etc. I don't think you need examples, we've all seen it.

 

Yes, it's some sort of supplement pill or something that the managers mix into his water before the game.

Does it feel like Michigan State plays UNC every year to anyone else?

Agreed, though I feel like that call will always be subjective...this just tilts it so more blocks are called in the future (in theory), which should be happening now anyway.

Too bad they couldn't get the shot clock lowered. 35 is way too much. Doesn't need to be 24, but maybe 30 would work.

I like it in college. It really does even the game up a lot.

Agreed, no reason not to move it to 30. 35 is way too long, so much standing around. If I wanted standing around, I'd go watch HS basketball.
