how the gently caress does ISU have such a big basketball fan base here

Jastiger posted:What the gently caress is this magic 3 point thing with Texas. They've made like 6 straight or some poo poo. They made 10/14 threes in the second half Normally I dislike it when people attribute such things to luck (numerous teams have shot well from 3 against ISU lately which is more indicative of poor D than luck in my opinion), but most college players couldn't make 10/14 threes in an open gym. Ungratek posted:how the gently caress does ISU have such a big basketball fan base here There's only like two or three longtime fans to my knowledge. They're a fun team to watch and got some good pub last year so I think more people are aware of us now. Ross fucked around with this message at 16:53 on Jan 27, 2015 |

Hoiberg seems like a likable guy. That's enough for me to pick who I want to root for in a conference I don't otherwise care about.

But it IS true...I think me, Melt, Thoguh actually went to ISU. And we're vocal about our support

It's also nice now that even more games are on TV. I moved back to Chicago right after school, and since it was Big 10 country, the only times I ever got to see ISU play was against Kansas because Kansas was a big draw, or if they managed to play a Big 10 team. Now nearly every game ISU played this year is on some sort of ESPN channel. Makes it easier to comment now that I can actually see the games instead of just looking up box scores. Edit: Also, Hoiberg is super likable, and the team has improved pretty much every year under him. So is a cascade of enthusiasm for the team. Especially when the football team is going in the opposite direction.

There are a lot of KU fans here too, which is good since we're the only ones who want to see Self break the conference streak record.

SA is based in Kansas City, there have always been a lot of KC fans, deal with it.

Please don't let WVU's press destroy K-State as much as I think it will, college basketball god E: alright, a technical 17 seconds into the game. hmmmmm

Kansas State lost to a SEC team not Kentucky so I'm not sure I can believe you.

Maybe UGA is better than I give them credit for. God, I'm a fan and I'm so hard on them. I guess I still have issues with when Dennis Felton was here in Athens. They're up m Vandy at home right now and if the don't blow it in the last minutes of the Arkansas and LSU games they would be at the top of the conference with Kentucky.

What happened to Florida? I haven't been keeping up with them. KU fans wanted Chris Walker really bad at one point but as I understand it after a year and a half he still isn't starting? And hasn't scored in double figures in conference play?

Tulsa wins at Tulane to go 8-0 in the AAC. Again, still a very back-loaded schedule, but they've got two more easily winnable games, then 6 of the last 8 are against kenpom top-100 teams. I dunno, I still don't like Haith as a hire, but feel pretty lovely criticizing him for the SE Okla St loss after finding out about his family issues around that time. The real test will be recruiting for future years at a small school with fairly strict academic standards, but for this year at least he's doing all that can be expected to position them for a run at the AAC title. edit: congrats VT for getting off the schneid elentar fucked around with this message at 03:22 on Jan 28, 2015 |

Cinmeon Bowers is absurdly fun to watch, like a Barkley Jr., but it's baffling that Pearl gives him so much license to run the floor on the break.

OctoberBlues posted:Pretty sure Baylor isn't even going to make the NCAA tournament, sorry aff. That would fit the pattern but theyre already way ahead of where they were last year at this time. They dont need a huge winning streak. But yeah they suck a bit more this year and havent gotten the big recruits like they did the past few years so well see.

Man, I am so loving tired of watching this team lose close games. Two blowout losses this year and the rest have been by less than 10 points and came down to the final seconds. The basketball gods owe us big time.
