This unc/duke game is high intensity too. As expected, but still

Foul discrepancy is Purdue and Northwestern 2.0. 

[str8baller 5,214]

Close one in Terre Haute! 
 

If you just tune in ISU is in the terrible uniforms for some reason! 

[str8baller 5,214]

Isu up 3 gives up an open 3 and fouls away but drake misses both. Tie ball game.  
 

Then the big boy for isu hits a 3.  Leaves up 3
 

48 sec. 
 

lets see if ISU stays in the zone…

This is a fun one. Never watched ISU ever, fun team. They are the real deal 

[str8baller 5,214]

ISU goes back m2m and gets a stop both time and then hits most of their FTs.  
 

Ball game.

Both teams were pretty good at times. Crowd sounded wild. Fun stuff

Unpopular opinion. I catch a lot of ish being an IU fan as a graduate of indiana State. My late father and late mother got their masters from IU. I attended IUPUI for 2 years as an IU undergrad. My ex mother-in-law and father-in-law's best man was Ron Felling.

I hear the "everyone who lives in Terre Haute should be Sycamore fans. It's where you live. I disagree. I've worked in other states. Just because their job is there doesn't mean they root for the hometown team. Not their school. Just because they live in the city doesn't mean they have to support the local team.

Now, can it be fun to jump on board? Sure! But to be pressured to follow the local. Team, because you live there? Nah, man. Support your team.

Long rant. May or may not be Maker's Mark induced.

but, don't sleep on the Sycamores!

Could see UNC and UCONN in the final game.

Can't recall if there's a generic women's hoops thread -- but this Maryland-Iowa game is a real wing-dinger. 

Iowa led by 18, now trails by 2 late in third quarter.

It’s been a very good game. A little bit defense optional. And Clark is an objectively great player, though I’m waiting for a teammate to slap her at some point. Her jawing isn’t limited to the other team. 
Side note: They mentioned during the Iowa MBB game the other night that she apparently dates the mouthy McCaffery son that graduated last year.
To quote the great Michael Bolton in “Office Space”:  “Their kids would have hooves.”

Pitino currently has Simeon Wilcher on his roster who is being covered by NIL. He in effect has 14 scholarship players. So Rick can shut up.

No fair! Only my team is allowed to pay players.

Home clock operator ends up screwing the home team Baylor.   Baylor was up 2 with 2 sec to go and shooting a FT and missed.  Iowa st would have had to thrown a full court shot for a chance to win but the clock operator started clock early so Iowa st gets ball side out.    Kid ends up hitting a 3 but was still in his hand.  Baylor holds on.   Even when the home clock operator tries to screw his home team college basketball still delivering 

[johnsoniu 6,410]

Baylor/Iowa St great finish. 
Baylor wins by 2, surviving a half court banked in buzzer beat that didn’t beat the buzzer by a scooch
