1st game since the tragedy, UVA upset Baylor...and scored 86! in regulation!

Armaan had 26

[HinnyHoosier 4,336]

J'ville State giving Alabama a game so far. Only down 4 with 2:36 left in the half.

Kansas up 1 with 1 min to go.

I'm gonna lose money on the spread but it's worth it if Kansas goes down to these guys.

[Uspshoosier 44,200]

Wow Grady with a big 3 for Kansas after S Utah made a heck of a defensive play.   Kansas up 4 with 35 sec to go 

[Uspshoosier 44,200]

Kansas is going to win it but they had to fight for it.

Oh damn, Nova made a comeback

Michigan St gets a foul on Nova by hip checking their own guy on a screen

I go upstairs to put the kids to bed and they are up double digits and come back down and they are only up 1.   Wow 

[LIHoosier 24,996]

Its MSU up 2 with 7 seconds left and Nova has the ball and just used their last timeout

[TheWatShot 13,335]

I know people like the "chess match" element of back to back timeouts late in games, but to me it just seems like over-coaching. 

[HinnyHoosier 4,336]

Doo-doo last possession by Nova. MSU wins.

The Illini look good! UCLA not a top 10 team.

[Brass Cannon 24,064]

Some hot takes from last night 

Michigan State I am not sure if they are good or not.  They are very back and forth.  Probably good knowing Izzo. 
 

Illinois is better than I thought.   That unbalanced conference schedule looks large.  No room for error on our part

If last nights IU and last nights Kansas teams were to play at Kansas we have a shot.

Central Arkansas up 2 at half

Good news is, we can play a LOT better.

Bad news is, Kansas likely will, too.

Seems like they are to me. They’ve played 3 quality opponents already and went 2-1. I’m not convinced IU would’ve went 2-1 on that stretch.  I think they’ll be a classically tough Izzo team by Feb.

I was in on Illinois. This is proving true. As much as I hate Underwood, I respect him. He creates winners. I had them #2 in the big.

Michigan State admittedly is surprising me. I’ve always like Hall. He’s really good. Izzo obviously does a good job winning but he’s got to be even exceeding his own expectations. Sissoko is better than expected. Bench is thin. Walk/Hoggard/Akins very capable guards. I think our size is a big issue for them.

The B1G has some damn good coaches. That’s for sure.

Last nights win was huge for us. Win 1 or 2 of the next 3 big ones and we are in great shape.

MSU looks better than I thought, although st this time of year Izzo is usually playing like ten guys or more significant minutes, and he’s a little tighter right now. They’ve got about 6 guys he trusts, two of whom — Hoggard and Sissoko — are also very up and down. Maybe Kohler comes around as #7, but they are not very deep. Fine unless they have injury issues.

They were so smart and composed down the stretch in the face of that crazy Baylor pressure. Bennett is such a good coach.

NET will debut on Dec 5.
