Big road win for FAU.  

FAU has been impressive.  12-1 now with their only loss being at Ole Miss.  Won at Florida.  There other D1 wins prior to the North Texas game were against low majors but they wont them all by double digits and averaged a 19 pint margin of victory.  But C USA is very unlikely to get any at large bids so you'll probably see UAB, North Texas, Charlotte, and FAU battling it out in the conference tournament.  FAU has a net of 13 but they'll probably end the year with one Net 1 game, just a few Net 2's and everything else a net 3 and 4.

Projected 2 more Q1 and 4 more Q2 plus the conference tourney.  Small chance that Conference USA could get multiple bids but they have a chance

Hopefully we’re not Iowa’s get right game. Although on the road in the Big 1.o it wouldn’t surprise me.

Help a brotha out. I see several people use, BIG 1.0 and big 2.0

What does that mean? I've never seen it answered.

UCSB/Cal State Fullerton have a good one going to the wire.  UCSB down 1 but at the line, 1:16 left.

[Hoosierfan1901 7,018]

SEMO within 7 with 40 seconds left 

[RaceToTheTop 28,157]

Dagger 3 by UCSB -- but they really need to reiew it because it looked like his foot was on the line.

[RaceToTheTop 28,157]

Reviewed, kept as a three.  UCSB up 4 with 23 seconds left, CSF at the line.

[Hoosierfan1901 7,018]

USI escapes SEMO, 86-81 and wins their first ever conference game in D1

[RaceToTheTop 28,157]

UCSB wins.

Stat of the night:

USI’s Jacob Polakovich went got 27pts/26rbs and is one of the best rebounders in the country

Kentucky fans are not happy... Cals saving grace is that recruiting class for next season, but doesn't seem the fans care a whole lot.

Taken before or after he punched someone out?

Don’t think anybody is playing as well as the Missouri Tigers right now. Nice to see for their new Head Coach.

They have players who can get hot from 3 and we haven’t been great at guarding the perimeter. I could see that happening.

I wasn’t sure where to post this so I decided to post it here.  
 

Whose brilliant idea for this team to take almost 2 weeks off?  I am not thinking of this from a fan’s perspective but from the players perspective.  Knowing this teams history and their propensity for coming out complacent after time off is not advantageous for this teams confidence.  The best way for this team to build confidence is to play an opponent 

I’m sort of guessing here, but I don’t think Woody liked the old schedules we’ve had. I bet this break is an artifact of trying to beef up the schedule this year on about a year’s notice.

Day basketball.   Nothing better 

North Carolina/Pittsburgh tied with 4 min to go

They’re also a Big 1.o team with a pulse and the game is on the road. Do we have someone who can stop Murray and the rando who will go for 20+?

UNC goes down at Pitt. (Who is now 3-0 in the ACC)
