--Official Saturday College Basketball Thread--

[TarHawk]

I'm stuck at work.. What's everyone watching?

This is what I'm following right now...

- #8 G'Town currently beating up on #2 Nova

- #6 West Virginia struggling at St. John's

- Keno up on Marquette in the first half

 

[dhow]

West Virginia, down 33-22 at half, only outscored St. John's 57-27 in the 2nd half. I'd say they got a stern talking to in the locker room.

 

[dhow]

Providence down 1 w/ 13 sec left

Not watching either, just following gamecast

 

[HawkeyeShane]

Clones up on K-State 35-31 at halftime.

 

[dhow]

Clowns have lost 18 straight vs ranked teams, and 7 straight to K-State.

I listen to KC sports radio every day and all I hear about is how good K-State is. Not seeing it. But then again, I didn't watch last week when they took KU into OT

 

[JHHawk]

Minny up 36-30 at half vs PSU in State College.
Minny fighting for their tourny lives.
PSU fighting to avoid a winless league season and DeChellis being shown the door.

Big Ten hoops...can't beat it with stick!

Big Ten hoops...can't beat it with Lick!

Fixed that last part for you...no charge!

 

[JHHawk]

Here comes PSU...still down 5,but Minny is tight...at this point,the pressure mounts on the opposing teams that do not want to be the only win of the year for PSU..

 

[spliff45]

Well, the Clones are down 50-40. Evidently, half time is a bad thing for ISU.

 

[woodyk1]

Wisconsin up 40-26 at half in Michigan.

Wisconsin up 40-26 at half in Michigan.

Wisconsin is on absolute fire

Shooting 68.2% (15-22) FG and 69.2% from behind the arc 9-13. Bohannon just crosses the half-court line to nail a 3 pointer at the buzzer to end the Half.

 

[RLeahey14]

I'm watching OU lead Texas by 18 at half. I hope the beat down continues.

 

[chadfrey]

My observations thus far....
G-Town is a heck of a club on their home floor.
No men's team should ever wear pink unis again. I mean NEVER.
Clemente is a heck of player for KSU. (Knew this going in, but it was confirmed today)
Memphis has better looking cheerleaders than Iowa State.

 

[woodyk1]

UNI up 8-2 quickly on Southern Illinois on ESPN2.

 

[TarHawk]

Man, what happened to Texas? Have lost either 4 of 5 or 4 of 6 since getting to #1

 

[dhow]

5pm games are pretty exciting and high scoring

Tennessee 30
South Carolina 16 Halftime

UNI 18
S. Ill. 18 Halftime

 

[dhow]

25-23 SIU

Freeman has 14 of their 25

Wasn't it 2 years ago @ UNI where he came back from injury to play in that game and score 20 or so to help us win? He ended up sitting the next couple after that.

Eglseder is missing all his bunnies!

 

[woodyk1]

Nice late game comeback by UNI. Adam Koch would not be denied.

Illinois up 14-4 early on Michigan State.

 

[woodyk1]

With Lucas hurt, Izzo just brought in the walk on point guard who usually runs the scout team. Interesting.

 

[DDThompson]

Watched about 10 minutes of the Wisky-Mich game and about 10 minutes of the MSU-Ill game.

Fairly entertaining.

Lots of off-ball movement and ball movement. Lots of throwing into the post and back to the perimeter. And in those 20 minutes I remember counting 1 ball screen.

I hate offensive schemes that rely on ball screens.
