2011/2012 NCAA Basketball Thread

[maildude]

I can't find the damn thing. I did seven different searches. I can't believe somebody hasn't started this thread for this season.

Question: While I watch my SPARTANS blow it, I'm wondering why BI hasn't gotten on in some thread, cawing about how great the Buckeyes are.

Because I'm still recovering after last night! Actually I gave my tix to my brother and nephew. Obviously they had a blast!

Boiler Up! It's great to see the conference take the challenge. This is the only time (until the tournament rolls around) that I root for Sparty, the Bucks, or the Hoosiers.

Speaking of The Ohio State... Hi, Jinxy.

My Heels dropped one to UNLV last weekend in Vegas. They play UK Saturday at Rupp. I am actually glad they aren't going in there ranked number #1. Should be a good game.

College Basketball only gets exciting for me in Feburary. First because football season is on during the early months, Second a longer season means more cupcake games to schedule which means alot of blowouts and unwatchable games. College basketball really takes a back seat for me for some time.

All that being said, the Duke/OSU game last nite was one of the first glorious games of the season, because Duke lost big.
My team, UCLA is off to a bad start, nothing i didnt expect tho, UCLA is going to be bad for at least another year.
I think ill know in another month whos really standing out as championship contenders, cause the cupcake games dont teach me anything about who the contenders are.

My dipshit girlfriend likes to play this every time the Hoosiers win (thankfully, that's not very often). It's infuriatingly catchy.

Even as a Boilermaker, I can appreciate IU's history. And they do have some very fine women in B-Town.

No conference has tradition like the Big Ten. I'm not talking about just basketball either. Great athletic programs, great academics, great tradition. Most conferences can boast at most one of those aspects. Michigan, Indiana, Ohio State, Penn State, Nebraska, Wisconsin, Northwestern, and on and so forth.

Hi Andronicus.

Houston, SMU and UCF are hardly a replacement for Syracuse, Pitt and WVU:

Great win last night for Indiana. There are only a couple of times each year when I root for the Hoosiers and last night was one of them. My dislike for the Wildcats far outweighs my dislike for my in-state rival.

 

[maildude]

Yeah...but they should be more careful!

Meh, she was a Kentucky fan. It's too bad she wasn't trampled to death.

The Seahawks are testing the Panthers. Don't take the Northeast Conference lightly...now OR in the tournament.

Congrats to SPARTY. And so much for the clock controversy.

I'm currently watching (Tivo'd) Duke vs Temple. All I have to say is -- huh??? :wtf:

Wisconsin got fucked.

Aggressive man-to-man has been a problem for Coach K all year.The Bucks pressed them all night, and SPARTY stayed out of the zone the entire second half when those teams played him. Congrats to the Owls for a long overdue win.
