Every single year the Ivy League takes a break from fucking up the world through its various alumni to fuck up everyone's bracket instead.
Louisville has now lost its third straight game by a single point, something which may never have happened to start a season.

Louisville is bad

Syracuse lost by 20 to a toothpaste

and yet somehow Mizzou has decided to do things like "play a fun brand of basketball" and "roll 10-11 guys who can all contribute"

i have no idea how a team that is basically entirely new to one another is putting up 90+ points every game this quickly (even if they're playing cupcakes, the past several years of cuonzo ball made me forget what fun basketball looks like)

Kentucky-Michigan St. going to double OT. UK couldn't make free throws to seal it in regulation or OT. Tshiebwe has fouled out for UK, so advantage MSU there.

It's amazing what they can do with computers these days.

Going to love ISU having to take a flight into Spokane in the middle of February going forward. I'm really wondering what the Zags get out of this aside from some extra money. They already sleep walk their way to the tournament every year, and usually with a very high seed. It's not like they need better competition to get into the tournament.

Maybe not the thread for it but the Kansas Regents voting for Kansas to have to get permission to leave the Big 12 to save K-State's rear end is infuriating.

These people hate Lawrence and KU every day of their lives until they need them. gently caress those western Kansas douchebags. The 10% chance of KU joining the B1G put the fear of god in them and now this. Of the three mentioned Regents, one is a Baylor alum, the other two both are KSU alums.

quote:

If the University of Kansas ever decides it wants to change athletic conferences, it will have to win some state approvals that aren’t required today.

Members of the Kansas Board of Regents on Wednesday unanimously approved a policy that will require any Regents university — KU, K-State, Wichita State, Fort Hays State, Pittsburg State and Emporia State — to get approvals from at least three non-university officials before moving to a new athletic conference.

The new policy comes on the heels of major conference realignment, which has sparked discussion about whether KU may need to move from the Big 12 Conference to protect its athletic programs.

The new policy requires the chair, vice chair and president/CEO of the Board of Regents to approve any move to a new conference. Specifically, the policy requires those three officials to grant approval before any university official enters any “discussions or negotiations” to begin to join another athletic conference. It also requires the trio’s approval before any final decision to move to a new conference is made.

I nearly posted yesterday "I don't know if Michigan is any good, but they sure are fun" because it kind of appears they've turned into a weird Iowa amalgamation. Minimal-to-no defense, but finally a cornucopia of shooters surrounding Dickinson to make it a Beilein-era shooting team.

That leads to fun games like Michigan-EMU last week, and blowouts versus Pitt. But when shooters can't hit the broad side of a barn, and opponent is even slightly hot, holy poo poo it looks rough. At any given time it looked like maybe 2.5 players on the team knew what they were doing, then ASU chucks some poo poo up that rolls on the rim perfectly (when there wasn't outright blown defense).

this team without Dickinson, holy moly I don't know

it's very rare of me to think of a college sports victory, especially an early season one, as objectively a "good" thing for a school—often it turns out to be the exact opposite— but that Baylor victory was pretty important for UVA right now just as an institution

This. APD is just as likely a culprit as any of the suspects they have. The rumors swirling around this are insane, Rio Grande Rivalry might be taking a long hiatus.

Unsubstantiated rumors below:

NMSU player got catfished, went to UNM campus to meet with the fake girl;
UNM students try to Tonya Harding or rob the player, one student gets killed by the player and another student shoots the player.


Again, all of this is just word of mouth rn, and APD aren’t unlikely suspects considering how often they enjoy shooting random people.
