College Hoops Around The Country [TN opponents, RPI, others]

[Lankykong]

Boom! Iowa State won. They were just waiting for my negativity

 

[Lankykong]

I haven't watched him a whole lot, but I think he's really good. He doesn't have much help on his team. He could be dynamite when he has 4 other NBA level teammates on the floor with him. He does need to learn to get some better shots, but he doesn't miss by much, and he can drive the ball.

He could easily average a double double in today's NBA.

He's good, but he took a bunch of goofy shots this game. Only one other guy on his team played well today though, so he did ok.

He's really good. A bit of a whiner, though. A lot of people are sick of hearing about him, so they have begun to nitpick his game and point out his TOs without acknowledging that he won't have to do those type things in the NBA. And for him, he'll need to realize that he doesn't need to do those things at the next level. He has Steph Curry range, and is probably just as quick.

He'll fit right in the NBA- good and a whiner.

My gosh that last possession of regulation for Missouri.

Sheesh.

 

[The Dog]

Looks like Mizzou is going to choke away a 12 point lead with 2 minutes to go, at home and lose to Miss. St in OT

 

[WarDamnVols]

Come on Georgia, pull it together and get the upset.

**** Georgia

 

[Kinger]

The bald ref is giving the game to Missouri. 2 tough calls for MSU cost them 5 points in overtime

 

[The Dog]

Well, I spoke too soon. Mizzou wins 89-85

 

[bleedingTNorange]

My gosh that last possession of regulation for Missouri.

Sheesh.

That was awful, brought back some memories.

 

[bleedingTNorange]

Are y’all not watching this Xavier/Creighton game?!??

 

[BigZiti09]

That was awful, brought back some memories.

Really did.

I almost think Cuonzo would be better off telling his team to throw it out of bounds under the Missouri basket and just play defense.

 

[bleedingTNorange]

Creighton win would be huge for the Vols, Xavier went up 2 but Creighton gets fouled on a 3 ball with 4.6 seconds left, makes all 3...Creighton up 1

 

[bleedingTNorange]

Woof...they call a blocking foul on Creighton with 0.3 left, Xavier makes them both and wins the game. That one sucks!

 

[The Dog]

Are y’all not watching this Xavier/Creighton game?!??

I am. The refs are deciding this game. Last 2 fouls shouldn't have been called, imo. Xavier up 1 with 0.3 seconds left

Damn that sucks. Did they guard the inbounder? Was it a good foul call?

Was not a block on Creighton. There was potentially contact on the three from them

 

[Lankykong]

Damn that sucks. Did they guard the inbounder? Was it a good foul call?

Pretty sure yes, and no. Announcers say it wasn't a foul

 

[golfballs]

Gasaway said it was a terrible call.

 

[bleedingTNorange]

Damn that sucks. Did they guard the inbounder? Was it a good foul call?

They let Xavier guard catch it going towards his basket, too easy of a catch and drive imo

 

[golfballs]

Xavier has been getting lucky all year. They’ve played a ton of close games and manage to eke them out

 

[Lankykong]

2 could have been called fouls on Xavier if they wanted to continue calling like they didn't care about the game situation. Too bad they only tried to decide the game twice.

 

[golfballs]

Ok, need UGA to come back and for Purdue to win

 

[golfballs]

Do we want TAMU or UK?

Even though we played UK twice and it’s better for our RPI, TAMU is at more risk of sliding down to a Q2 game.

 

[Knox-a-rue]

The end of that Creighton/Xavier game, ugh. Saw a tweet that described the last minute as an extended commercial on why you shouldn't watch basketball.
