Cal is scared of Rick Barnes.

Illinois and Ohio State in a tight one with 6 minutes to go, would be a big win for the Vols if Illini could pull it out.

WV at OU is clearly the best game of the night.

 

[bleedingTNorange]

WV at OU is clearly the best game of the night.

I would like to see WVU win that one, some have Oklahoma ahead of us

 

[Hoosier_Vol]

Yeah it's a AWFUL night for hoops on tv....Will be interesting to see what WV's defense can do with Young.

 

[scottchatt]

Who is the Big 10 homer on ESPN’s halftime show? He just said Ohio St Purdue and Michigan St Iowa are bigger games than Duke UNC this week......have you ever watched basketball? No mention at all of Tennessee Kentucky, which is on their Network tomorrow!

 

[golfballs]

I think I’m for Oklahoma here. They’re overrated and have at least 3 more losses on the schedule... at TT, at Kansas, and potentially at Baylor. WVU also has some losses... at Kansas, and either at Texas or at Baylor. Maybe even at home against TT.

 

[golfballs]

A win for WVU might be enough to spring them back close to us on the seedline.

 

[YankeeVol]

Im just gonna keep annoying Freak until we get the APSU logo

 

[Hoosier_Vol]

Down goes Boomer Sooner and Espn’s Love child Trae Young

 

[golfballs]

Ok, would be nice for WVU to lose a few more, which probably will happen. Supposedly the most inconsistent team in the country

[golfballs]

Upset of The Night: Butler over #5 Xavier

Butler is favored

 

[Hoosier_Vol]

They maybe "favored" but a unranked team beating #5 is still a "upset" regardless

:question:

 

[golfballs]

Is it an upset if Kentucky wins tonight since we’re ranked higher?

 

[appyvol]

Is it an upset if Kentucky wins tonight since we’re ranked higher?

They're favored spread wise, so I guess it could be considered an upset either way.

 

[BigZiti09]

Is it an upset if Kentucky wins tonight since we’re ranked higher?

Yes. Anytime you win in Rupp it’s an upset.

 

[golfballs]

Yes. Anytime you win in Rupp it’s an upset.

I said if Kentucky wins.

If we win it will be an upset because Kentucky is favored

 

[BigZiti09]

I said if Kentucky wins.

If we win it will be an upset because Kentucky is favored

My bad.

To me, no matter what the spread is and no matter who is ranked where.....the vols winning in Rupp is an upset.

On the flip side of that... under almost every scenario Kentucky winning at home is not an upset. Now if they are unranked one year and beat #1 Duke at Rupp then yeah I guess it's an upset.

 

[Hoosier_Vol]

Now your talking about a match up of two ranked teams. Not exacatally the same as a unranked beating the #5 team in the country.

There’s generally a pretty straightforward way to know if it’s an upset or not and that is by the Vegas point spread. That typically will factor in how well a team generally plays against an opponent or in a certain venue.
