oh my god. This might be super offensive, but who exactly is honored by this?

I saw that but they're black on the back and I don't think the NCAA lets you have a jersey in separate colors like that or Oregon would do it every game.

Not shocked in the least. As most know I follow college hoops handicapping heavily. All 3 of those schools are well below average when it comes to covering the spread. They also are usually underdogs. Pretty easy to $convince$ a kid not making any nil $ to lose a game by 20 instead of 16.

Big Mondays not what they use to be.  Tuesday slates always kill it 

One big game 

Iowa St/Kansas 

some good mid major games though 

Charleston/William & Mary 

UAB/N Texas

I'm watching Colgate/Lehigh.  Pretty good game 42-37 Lehigh 20 secs left in first half.

When you are watching a 9-14 Colgate take on a 8-13 Lehigh team on cbssports you know your are a hoops junkie.   Love this thread

In a game that a bubble team like Pittsburgh needs to win, Virginia is up 18-4 on Pittsburgh’s floor

Indeed, I do love college hoops!  Unfortunately, Lehigh blew this wide open...69-51 8:44 to go.

Honest to God, this may be the worst offensive half I’ve watched this year. 13 mins in and Pitt has more to’s than baskets.

NC Central and Norfolk state all knotted up at 29 with 5 mins left in first half!

So if this holds, you could say MSB beat 5 thugs at once...again.

That was  one of the best threads ever on this site.   BT Banners Hall of Fame thread   How long ago was that 

[Uspshoosier 47,241]

Pitt still down 16 with 12:50 to go.  This would be a terrible loss for a bubble team 

[Uspshoosier 47,241]

This one is getting interesting.  Incarnate Word up 5 with 3 min to go
