I don’t think Iowa or Wisconsin understand the concept of defense. 

I think Wisconsin was in NBA Jam mode and just kept burning the nets.

Recruiting services haven't whiffed on a prospect more than they did with Xavier Booker.

Dude looks completely lost and borderline disinterested. 

It was the same in high school.  All he wanted to do was shoot 3s.  Several close games he wasn't on the court in crunch time.  We really dodged a bullet by not aggressively recruiting him.

Records broken on back to back nights:

• Illinois hits Oregon with the biggest home loss by an AP Top 10 in college basketball history

• Wisconsin hits 21 3’s vs Iowa, most made 3’s by a Big Ten team in a game.breaking the record where Purdue put 20 3’s on Iowa in 2018

It’s raining 3s in the B1G.

Watching UK and UF run offense is an absolute treat.

Feels like either of these teams could be national champion.

The over was a ridiculous 166.5. I took it anyway lol

[Hovadipo 56,456]

I’m surprised Billy Napier hasn’t tried stealing Alijah Martin for his roster. That guy is built like a truck.

I have 157.5 with 2 player props that have already cashed. Fabulous start to the day.

I promise this isn’t political, but of note, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and his daughter are sitting courtside at UK for the UF game. AND they sat him NEXT TO THE UK BENCH. AND Gov and his daughter aren’t wearing orange!!

Wacky stuff.

I remember it used to be you dove on the floor and had possession if you so much as twitched a muscle they’d call traveling. Now these guys flop around like a fish on crack break dancing and its play on.

seems like there’s a happy medium in there somewhere

SEC basketball is currently what SEC football keeps trying to cling to but isn’t anymore. It’s miles ahead of every other conference this year. Watching this game after watching OSU-MSU last night, Jesus. It’s the difference between shooting a bullet and throwing it.

Kentucky and Florida was a very fun game. UK and UL both made very good coaching hires last offseason. Pope has a roster that he could easily go to a F4 with. I like the guy as much as I hate to admit it

Yeah, the Pope thing is really a problem. The idea that UK has Pope and Purdue has Painter, 2 guys I would actively root  for at literally any other jobs, really grinds my gears. 

[johnsoniu 6,481]

Watching UK this year, with Pope who seems like genuinely decent chap, and a roster of guys who aren’t renting the uniform for a year before heading to the NBA; I find my hatred of UK slightly waning. 
Then the camera pans to show the big blue nation hilljack fans and I remember…….eff em
