Anybody watching SDSU v Nevada?! Unbelievable first half for SDSU...they're up 55-25 at the break.
 
Xavier blew a 16 point second half lead to providence lol


the absolute best part of it was bluiett blowing the layup to basically end the game with 18 seconds left (and the shot clock off) and then providence tying it on 2 FT to send it to overtime.

but you know all their close wins are from great coaching and senior leadership, not luck

Can't stand Grayson Allen or Duke, but they suck at calling charges nowadays. And UNC is having an absolute breakdown.

yeah i didn't like that charge cause i thought allen took off then the guy slid under him.



but allen deserves all the calls against him, another dirty play tonight. just too much.

Yeah can't complain it went against him, but like you said he slid under after he was in the air. I could care less it happened to him, but these refs have to stop looking at just the line, it turns in to so many bad calls.
 
Last night was great. I met some of my friends and their wives on the west side at wild Mikes and it was full of Xavier fans.

It was great to watch them lose

Didn't see the play, but the rule is supposed to be defined that you have to have your feet set when the player starts his shooting motion. I might not have worded that best, but basically when he picks up his dribble to get ready to shoot, not just when they leave their feet. I like that more charges are being called cause I think rules are geared to hinder playing defense but I've seen too many where they let guys slide in late and after he picks up his dribble. This of course applies to help defenders, not to a defender already engaged with the offensive player. Some people don't understand there's a difference. If you're already engaged with the defender basically you just have to stay your position and not move into the defenders way if he tries to slide around you. You don't really even have to have your feet set because your allowed to stay in your position, even moving. Meaning if you're backing to the basket and staying true a guy can't just run you over.

this was a secondary defender that i thought clearly slid under allen after he already started his jump. i took a little freeze frame. this is when allen is taking off, the defender clearly not yet in the position he was when he took the charge, he's even still in the restricted circle.

Yep, clearly a blocking foul
 
Great finish in the America East final. UMBC with the comeback and game winning three at the buzzer.
 
Watching the WSU game....they seem to have some chemistry issues. I have noticed that absolutely nobody talks to Frankamp. He got injured and nobody helped. McDuffie is kind of a head case.
 
Honestly I think. Houston winning is the best thing for us.

Zero debate now about UC and WSU swapping seed lines.

We have nothing to lose tomorrow and very little to gain.

I like us against Houston as well. WSU Morris was a nightmare match up for us. Washington was out manned by him. We also seem to plat very well against Gray.

All that said if Evans doesn't show up we will be in trouble.

watching this kansas wvu game.


when you're playing the elite teams, you must score late in the game. hoping your opponent just can't score won't get it done. these elite teams are too good at offense. wvu learning that lesson for the 3rd time this year

Evans will show up tomorrow and will take Gray down mano-a-manbun. I'm guessing he'll put up 17. Could be wishful thinking but somethings gotta give for him.
 
Buffalo fights off a late Toledo run to win the MAC for the 3rd time in 4 years in Cleveland.
Who knew they would be our best OOC win of the season come this time.
