[It Takes Eleven]

Can we update the title to include the word "basketball" so not to be confused with football

Done.

God lee our game is on at the same time as Michigan State-Arkansas

 

[Bammerboy321]

Uhhhh

 

[Bammerboy321]

Arkansas lost a good one at Michigan State. The freshman for MSU, Cam Ward, is ridiculously good. Arkansas' length and talent is going to be a real issue.

FWIW, Kentucky is at Louisville tonight: 8 on ESPN.

Probably the first matchup in a while that I've been interested in. Last season's game was decent. This one might go down to the wire.

 

[Bammerboy321]

Louisville beat Kentucky 96-88. Mikel Brown Jr looks so damn good. I don't think Pope has figured out how to coach defense yet.

Illinois also beat Texas Tech 81-77. Alabama will play them later this season.

 

[Bammerboy321]

I'm in Minneapolis for work this week, so I didn't get to watch last night. But did see that Gonzaga smashed Arizona State. They - like Purdue - are probably going to destroy us on the boards if we get similar effort from our guards and forwards like last game.

Zona beat UCLA 69-65

 

[Bammerboy321]

Georgetown just came back and beat Clemson. Is Georgetown back?

Houston up 68-62 vs auburn with 5 minutes left.

 

[Bammerboy321]

I will say, auburn definitely looks worse under Steven Pearl, but their offensive sets are still impressive. They're passing the ball very well and their spacing is good.

Houston up 68-62 vs auburn with 5 minutes left.

I have it on a second screen and every time I glance over, there is an auburn player slithering on the floor like they've been tased. I was hoping that ended when Broome and CBM left.

God I'm glad others catch onto that. Last year, they exaggerated every single injury as if they were shot in the knee. Then bounced right back up and played like nothing. It's like they're pulling a pity card.

 

[Bammerboy321]

Houston is definitely getting good looks. 70-66

 

[Bammerboy321]

auburn is17-27 from the FT line

 

[Bammerboy321]

BOOOM BIG THREE FROM HOUSTON

 

[Bammerboy321]

Yeah that kind of relentless effort on the boards and passing from auburn was impressive.

 

[Bammerboy321]

How that is a foul on Houston is beyond me. And that's the second Cougars player to foul out. Officials have heavily favored auburn.
