Huge win by URI against Oklahoma State (part of a 1-and-1 deal). Played inside the Mohegan Sun casino's arena.

Minnesota vs Purdue tonight. Really tough game, but Purdue should be fine since it's at home.
Plus Chris Kramer is a Golden God. |

NCAA really needs to change the rule about school sanctions if it only involves a player no longer in the school. Today, USC basketball team is upset that because Mayo won't ever be punished, they have to be punished by missing out on a potential post-season for stuff they never did.

Nice win for Mizzou over No. 10 K-State yesterday. Hoping we can get back to the tourny this year and make another run next year.

I still expect to see my currently #8 ranked Michigan State Spartans take the Big Ten Conference, maybe the Big Ten Tournament (which, if anybody will care or recall, was a huge debacle for us last year...), and quite possibly win a National Championship. They showed last year that they know how to take a loss in the conference tournament on the chin and move on to become National Runners-up who only really lossed because they were outclassed, and there's nothing wrong with that, except if we're lucky enough to reach another title game this year they need to be hungry for it this year and play like it.

Wishing the Gophers had a little more to show in their third season with Tubby Smith. They have some cool players, but the team still doesn't generate the buzz that a "big-time" team would. Aiming for fourth in the Big Ten doesn't exactly thrill me.
Mizzou is playing well against Oklahoma though. Opening up the Big 12 season 3-0 with wins over No. 10 K-State, and road wins at Texas Tech and Oklahoma would be very, very nice. |

Wow, hell of a game between State and Minnesota yesterday afternoon...was honestly thinking in the early half when the Gophers started to expand their lead that we'd be 6-1 by the end of the day. Fortunately though, the Spartans found just enough in the tank in the last 1:27 of the game to pull off a 65-64 victory.
U of M worries me this Tuesday. They used to not be able to play for shit for the longest time and were a perennial laughingstock. The Spartans better not go into Ann Arbor Tuesday expecting a cake-walk like they've had in the last several years though, or they will lose for sure. |

I cannot imagine anything better then Big 10 basketball. Purdue vs Wisconsin was amazing tonight. Physical, had 3 huge runs and two players, one from each team were absolute superstars.
E'tuan Moore is probably the best 2 guard in the country and was outstanding in the clutch. Had like 14 points in the 2nd half. Wisconsin had this big guy named Nankiv or something. I forget his name cause i'm drunk, but he shot lights out from the 3 point line. 7/8 and had 25 points. GREAT GAME cant wait for Purdue vs Michigan St. |

Plays SF and honestly, when he's shooting well, he's the best in the country at the position. The guy rebounds for about 8/ per game. ANd he's all fire no matter what. He's all heart. He's one of those guys who will get tons of play come tournament time cause of his leadership
But Moore is the legit best SG in the country according to Rivals.com. Kramer is probably the best defensive player in the country. And Johnson is a fantastic big man. Purdue had a bad stretch. They lost to Wisconsin in Wisconsin, which isnt suprising. They lost to Northwestern who is pretty damn good. And i forget who else they lost too, but they are still an amazing team. I think they'll win out. I truely believe they'll catch Michigan St in the Big 10. |

I fucking love College Basketball. I'm getting the College Baketball package next year for sure.
I just love all the different styles from all these teams. It's so diverse compared to the NBA. |

I really hope that they dont expand the tournament to 96 teams..there will be so many sub .500 teams that dont deserve to be in it..
I dont mind expanding to 68 with 4 play in games for the right to face the #1 seeds though, but thats as far as they should go. |

That sounds similar to the old NIT set-up where it was 48 teams but the odd number only affected teams where winner would face the top higher seeds (#1-4 per region) while rest of the bracket was left untouched. So worst case scenario would still end up with the same "meh" teams a normal 32-team bracket since the highest seeds would be eliminating each other in 1st qualifier round.

Just get it over with. Add 3 more rounds to the tourney from what it is now. All 347 teams are in - top 91 get a 1st round bye.
In this era of "include everybody", why not? |

didn't realize how bad Michigan is doing. They were predicted in the top 10 in some early pre season polls.
And NC |

Purdue vs MSU tommorow night. If Purdue wins, they're technically leading the Big 10 ( or maybe tied with Wisconsin, not for sure ), via win over MSU.
HUGE GAME. I cant state this enough... HUGE GAME FOR PURDUE. Robbie Hummel, we need you! |

If Purdue wins MSU will still be in 1st by a half game at 9-3 and Purdue will be tied with Wisconsin, Ohio State, and Illinois in 2nd at 8-3.
