I'm wondering on a scale of 1-10 how bad the Aces are gonna get thumped in the Gulf Coast Tourney. I mean they did beat Miami Ohio, so maybe they won't get dunked all over by FGCU.

Purdue beat Grambling 82-30 today. They beat up their pre-Maui cupcakes and showed signs of a competent offense for the first time in several seasons. Too many turnovers and missed free throws are going to cost them a few games this year but they should be a bubble team. For the first time in over 30 years they're using a zone on a regular basis. We'll see how often it gets used against better competition, they've been giving up way too many open corner 3s.

SDSU shot 24% from the field, 3-24 from 3, and 70% from the free throw line. And won 51-27. If this team could shoot at ALL, they'd be a serious force to be reckoned with

Flash Gordon Ramsay posted:News: UVa has a tough matchup against GW tonight Hoping something actually comes of it this time, hardly the first time the university has been called out on its lovely, toxic culture. Lots of really strong student voices emerging yesterday, but the admin couldn't look stupider or less helpful if they tried—the independent counsel they named to conduct the investigation into the frat rape culture was himself a brother at the rapiest frat in the RS article. And then there was an (apparently) unrelated student suicide yesterday too. Anyway: here's to basketball and temporary reprieves and please God nobody getting hurt in Charlottesville for one night, at least.

Iowa is favored by 3 1/2 tonight, which is somewhat in line with the Sagarin ratings, but definitely not in line with the Pomeroy ratings. I know it's early, but I was thinking that last year the lines usually matched up with Pomeroy even in November.

How are people expecting the ACC to play out this year? I know Louisville is now a part of the conference and should be pretty good this year, so is it Duke/UL and then UNC/UVA/Syracuse? I know the Big 10 and Big 12 guys were already posting a bit about they expected things to play out, but would be curious to hear from some others about different conferences. SEC is clearly UK/UF and then a bunch of meh.

We have a really good team but our depth is very young. A senior, a junior, and a bunch of freshmen. Once the rotation tightens up around ACC time and the team is more comfortable together, we ought to be drat tough. I would expect something like 27-10, and 3rd-5th in the ACC. paperchaseguy fucked around with this message at 23:17 on Nov 21, 2014 |

Handy betting tip for all you gamblers out there: Always bet against the spread when UK plays a non-top 30 team after beating a ranked team. Or just do it for all of November and December disregarding the previous game.

Welp, Florida is screwed with injuries. G Eli Carter is now hurt. It may be as simple as a sprain, but it could be a Lisfranc which sidelines him for the year. Add in Finney-Smith's hand injury, and Murphy's suspension and we are really hurting. Louisiana Monroe took us to OT

Mississippi State is 3-0 and just had an 8 point win over Utah State, a team that beat us by like 15 last year. We aren't very good, but signs of improvement are always good.

I definitely think Nebraska-Omaha will just keep getting better, they've also got a nice little arena outside of Omaha. It was almost completely empty for the game I went to a couple years back, but it was nice. edit: I guess they are having a new arena built for next season. The one they play at now is mainly a hockey facility, but I thought it was a pretty cool place. v  vVV To be fair, Seattle is pretty much in the same position as Omaha, and seems to be improving from the dumpster fire they were a couple years ago.

I'm posting roughly two miles from UNO, AKA the University of No Opportunity, AKA West Dodge Street High School. Screw that "Omaha" nonsense.  And yeah, they'll be in a new arena closer to campus next fall. I believe their hockey team, which has been D-I for awhile now but was sharing the CenturyLink Center with Creighton, will play there as well. I think it was necessary for them to get bumped up to D-I in other sports. Nebraska is a basketball state now, y'all (... I'm posting this 90 minutes after the football team lost at home to Minnesota)

Marquette is just really bad this year. Omaha shot 57% after Ohio St ran a layup line on them in the previous game. Guards couldn't stop anybody from going right on by to the hoop. They've got a top class coming in next year but what's on the roster right now isn't looking good.
