Hey, anyone want to pay to clean the Florida locker room? You don't get to meet anyone, or even attend the game, but you get to come in at 5 AM!

looking like time maybe to just shut this whole thing down for a week or two, unless we want to lose whole conference slates or the tournament again

Super glad I flew down to Charlotte to watch VT St Bonaventure. I was convinced we'd lose, so it was great watching us splash 3s only like eight rows back from the court. Now time to get crushed at Cameron.

Kentucky will play WKU Wednesday instead of Louisville, with game proceeds going toward tornado relief funds, which is nice.

They reached out to Gonzaga, Ohio St, and Texas but couldn't make anything work on short notice. They also reached out to Bellarmine, which would at least be a game against a school from the city of Louisville, but that didn't work out either.

I know a lot of the conferences have covid forfeit policies, so I'm guessing this scrambling for games that a lot of teams are doing will be less common in a few weeks.

The Louisville team has an outbreak? Oh no!

I'm not happy that Louisville has Covid, but gently caress Louisville either way.

And I know that because of this hubris UK is gonna, at some point, get Covid as well.

Assuming Baylor beats NWST on 12/28, it's going to be two undefeated, top 10 teams, facing off on New Year's Day with Baylor and Iowa State. God I hope we don't get crushed. It's at Hilton Coliseum, but since it's winter break, I hope there's enough kids around to fill the place.

Auburn closes conference play with Allen Flanigan returning for a 71-58 over Murray State. 11-1 with like six wins over teams with real tournament chances and a very respectable loss makes for a great start to the resume. SEC is going to be sick, might go like 12-6 but still feel like I'm going to like this team a lot.

At least it’s not like a few years ago and UH still has more talent than anyone outside maybe Memphis but all the depth is gone. This still feels like a Tournament team but maybe a double digit seed. Cincinnati on Tuesday will say a lot about prospects going forward.

Edit: Or not, since UH forfeits the game due to players with Covid.

Edit2: And now Kyler Moore is in a boot with a bad ankle injury. Cool cool

Baylor beat Iowa State, but I can’t even be mad about it. Every time Baylor needed a bucket they made it. ISU fought until the end, but they just don’t have the offense to compete with Baylor.

The lack of offense is what’ll kill them in a few games I’m sure. They just don’t have enough shooters to come back when down. ISU absolutely sucks from 3, which makes any quick comeback even that much harder. They still play really good D, and that is how they’re going to win.

don't think I've ever seen frontcourt talent so concentrated in one single league as the B10 right now; the Kenpom all-league team is Liddell, Murray, Davis (the lone swingman), Edey, and Jackson-Davis and that is just a wild stat-filler lineup even before you get Trevion Williams coming off the bench

Murray State is joining Belmont in moving to the MVC, which pretty much wipes out the OVC from being relevant ever again.

edit: looks like UT-Arlington, UMKC, and Illinois-Chicago were all also considered, league may add a 12th team but none of those are going to boost much of anything, unless the Dallas market really is that lucrative.

Iowa State beat Texas Tech in a pretty ugly game where both teams sucked on offense. Tech missed a lot of free throws and ISU spent most of the 2nd half lost on O. The defense carried the team again.

Fittingly, Tech hit a half court, banked, three pointer at the buzzer to lose by 4. The line was ISU -4.5, so a bunch of people just lost a bet on that three, lol.
