It's college basketball season...

[CTU2fan]

Thank you Providence for doing what you do best.

I'd still put them in.

Amidst all the Championship Week coverage on ESPN I happened to see that George Mason got whacked in their conference tourney and thus will not be pissing on anyone's parade this March. A small part of me smiled inside. Well, actually a large part, like my entire face. Another guy might not be that petty, but I'm not that guy.

UConn-'Cuse into OT...

 

[thetitans2k]

triple OT. great game.

 

[thetitans2k]

Thabeet is such a peice of shit.

 

[phillyfan26]

Five overtimes. What the fucking fuck.

 

[phillyfan26]

6 overtimes. Jesus Christ.

 

[thetitans2k]

this game is insane.

 

[phillyfan26]

I don't have a TV in my room, I'm just following it on ESPN.com. Absolutely crazy, even still.

I want 'Cuse, simply to help 'Nova's chances if they beat Louisville.

 

[thetitans2k]

Syracuse owns OT 6

 

[thetitans2k]

you can watch it on justin.tv

 

[phillyfan26]

Awesome. Thanks!

Is that Raftery? He's the best.

 

[phillyfan26]

I love how they're blatantly annoyed by the fouls now.

 

[phillyfan26]

9 people have fouled out, each team has taken over 100 shots. Unreal.

 

[speedracer]

40/51 on free throws in a 6 OT game is pretty good.

 

[CTU2fan]

I should be pissed, but I'm not. Epic game.

 

[Hewson]

Think the boys from Syracuse will be fresh for tonight's game?

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

i think they might be a tad rusty. what a game though.

i'm envisioning a highlight film set to PJ's All Night for ESPN. i should get on the horn with the producers.

 

[speedracer]

Think the boys from Syracuse will be fresh for tonight's game?

The books don't think so; they rate WV as a 6-6.5 point favorite.

 

[CTU2fan]

I 100% want Syracuse to win tonight (and win the tournament...them or Nova). Nothing bur respect for those guys, rival or not.

Except Devendorf, dude's a punk.

 

[DaveC]

Thank god college basketball is finally getting interesting.

[/madnessgambler]

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

it's been fairly interesting all season... where've ya been?

 

[DaveC]

I have no attachment to any American college team, so I have a really tough time actually following along during the regular season, since I have nowhere to focus my attention and there's so many teams.

I'd still put them in.

I don't have the same confidence that you have. Granted Providence has a few solid wins and a winning record in the toughest conference in the country, but they also have had some bad losses - the opener to Northeastern still disgusts me. Beating Depaul doesn't really help them either since their RPI is terrible - it would have been better to play Cinci.

They're just a frustrating team because on paper they don't look bad, but have the time it looks like they don't give a fuck. We shall see what happens, but I have them NIT bound at this point.

Of course it's nothing new in college hoops but, damn, there are upsets everywhere you look on the TV.

LSU lost to Mississippi St., Ohio St. looks like they're gonna beat Michigan St., and UNC is losing to some football school.

 

[2861U2]

Come on, Illinois!

 

[LMP]

Wow, would never have thought that FSU's basketball team would make it to the ACC Championship over its football team.

Here's to hoping they beat Duke.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Come on, Illinois!

Hell yeah, baby. Where have you been all year? Did you go to the U of I?

Too bad my boy Chet Frazier is hurt right now, but I have a feeling he'll be back for the big dance.

 

[phillyfan26]

I'm glad Wake lost. The most irritating Wake fan goes to my high school. He guaranteed that Maryland wouldn't have a chance.
