Miami

 

[BillyC80]

81-79 final.

Out of control drive cost Illinois

Great game.

 

[AreYouNUTS]

Minnesota pummeling Clemson by 14 with eight minutes to go

 

[LOU-RU85]

That Illinois game was crazy. You just can’t let them take a 27 point lead and expect to come back. Lazy D for a long stretch cost them.

 

[RUinFla]

Watched some of the Minnesota-Clemson game. Clemson was down to 8 scholarship players. There were several injured players at the game, and they are all supposed to be back by Jan 1. Minnesota was up 8 to start the second half, built it to maybe 18. Clemson made a run, but ran out of gas. Pitino has a nice team, but it looks beatable.

Out of control drive cost Illinois

That kid did everything wrong on that play. Down 1, he walks the ball up, then waits at top of key for last shot, forces a drive that isn't there and misses a wide open guy that was in his field of vision.

In his defense both guards looked exhausted after that comeback.

Yeah , tried to be a hero while Frazier was wide open for the winning shot on the wing . He is really good maybe NBA good but still a really bad end game decision

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

Our conference really needed be 2-0 after these games. Illinois really laid an egg for the conference.

 

[RU-ROCS]

Havent seen Miami this year but I could see them winning Usually an athletic team They seem to step up in big games (nationally televised)
Similar thoughts on Michigan people always overlook them even when they are on a run.
And it is a given you are wrong on Pitt choice...That school from New Jersey gonna kick arss

Good call on the Miami upset. IL played like absolute crap in the 1st half and their great second half play fell just short.

Agreed. IL totally slept -walked through the 1st half. By the time they kicked it into gear, it was just too late to overcome the 19-point halftime deficit. Even so, but for a bone-head last possession, IL would have won.

One down 2 to go. I would be happy calling 2 of 3 if second is RU!!!!

 

[RU Mike73]

Worth noting. Worst ACC team not playing

Really? You do know VT beat #3 Michigan State?

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

Wow. I expected Louisville to win but Michigan can’t even get off a shot.

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

Really? You do know VT beat #3 Michigan State?

I thought it was Wake Forrest

 

[BillyC80]

Wow. I expected Louisville to win but Michigan can’t even get off a shot.

I thought Michigan must be doing pretty good when I heard Louisville had only 28 points for the half, until I saw that Michigan only had 18. Wow.

 

[shields]

The Cuse stinks.

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

Iowa is pretty good against zone

 

[RU Mike73]

I thought it was Wake Forrest

Wake playing TTFP tomorrow.

 

[BillyC80]

Michigan back in it.

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

Wake playing TTFP tomorrow.

Wonder why VT not in it

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

Anyone notice the fish with a cut near his mouth. I think he swallowed a hook

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

Back on serve with NW and Iowa. Ahead of schedule

 

[RU Mike73]

“Wonder why VT not in it“

ACC has 15, B1G has 14. Odd man out.

 

[kcg88]

Wonder why VT not in it

They were projected to be the worst team when this schedule was finalized, I think. But the new coach got some guys to come back from the portal and is obviously a really good basketball mind.

I knew that

 

[bac2therac]

Indiana is off to a strong start. They look better than expected.

 

[kcg88]

7-1 so far with Illinois the only miss.

I must have looked at your paper as I am 7-1 also with the same miss.

Score is 4-4.
We have the slight edge tonight, but I am smelling a tie.

Just saw Jose Alvarado is still out for Georgia Tech. Might have to switch my pick to Nebraska.
