SYRACUSE takes lead over Virginia
39-36. Virginia only 2 points in 2nd half over 8 minutes. Outscored 17-2. We should pass Virginia with a loss and win for the Bearcats.

 

[Garybearcat]

Virginia a loser to Syracuse 66-62!

 

[Garybearcat]

Purdue beats Maryland.
Bad for SMU that would have moved them possibly into Top 25. In the long run better for us UM loses pollsters would eventually move them ahead of us if they continued to have just 2 losses.
Early games going our way.! Duke tied with Pitt who has only won 1 game in ACC.

 

[Garybearcat]

Iowa St beating Kansas at Kansas 78-75. This would be huge for the Bearcats.

Would make my day if Tulsa can knock off SMU. 20-10 with 3.30 in first half

 

[WAITE HOYT 2]

Pimptino has Louisville playing very well right now. Very hot right now.

Would love if Tulsa could win. I don't think we get that lucky though.

Not good for the conference if they lose. We need them to win so when we play, if we lose it's still a good loss.

That wouldn't be lucky for us at all. The better SMU does the better it is for UC.

Could this be the week we crack the top ten?

Could this be the week we crack the top ten?

I really really doubt it. We'd have to pass 4 teams for that to happen. It looks like the only teams we have a prayer of passing are Virginia, Kentucky, and WVU. Passing all of them wouldn't even be enough, and I don't think we'll pass any of them anyway.

Edit: OK to be fair, UNC and Wisconsin play tomorrow, and UCLA is playing now (although winning handily early on). So if some things go right, it's possible we'd have a shot at the top 10. But I still think it's super unlikely. If we go undefeated thru the SMU game though, I think we'd be top 10 the following week.

I love this season. Really showing what Cincinnati Basketball can be.

It's gonna be close I can tell you that, two teams with 5 losses in front of us now, they will both be behind us, as will Virginia I think. If Wisconsin or UNC lose tomorrow I think we definitely pass all 3 of those teams +1. If we get to ten, I could see us going all the way to 8 over Baylor and Arizona. I have a feeling we end up going up 2 or 5/6. Don't think there will be an in between.

Watching Louisville and Virginia and I know this has been discussed before... But Dan Dakitch is the worst color announcer in college basketball.

Totally agree! He is a big ten homer which is annoying. He is just to me plain and simple a butthead. He needs to stay on big ten network.

God he is the worst. And he is against kids being allowed to transfer, wants the graduate transfer rules eliminated, and is even against them being paid a stipend. He really believes the athletes are property of the schools, and if they want any rights they should just be good enough to be in the NBA or tough luck.

I wish he was forced to work for room & board only, since he clearly isn't good enough to call NBA games. God, he is such a puddinhead.

remember this guy

'15 UNCA Transfer G Andrew Rowsey. Remember this guy. First to games this month he has scored 22 and 21 points. avg 11 per game 18 min a game. Take Broome in a second.

Sorry, must of jinked him. MU lost to Butler and 0 points for Rowsey. Take Broome in a second or less.

Had Iowa state won, we could have had another clean sweep from our previously played opponents winning
