5 min before.   5 pm tip-off against a NAIA team with students on break.    ISU isn’t known for attendance anyway but this is low.    First time I’ve been back to a game here in 18 years 

As an alum, class of '70, even I would call that sparse. Come to think of it, that was probably the last time I went to a game, although I did see a John Mellencamp show there sometime in the early '80's.

Not if you are meeting up with old friends you haven’t seen in along time 

I wouldn't talk too loud with them.  Probably hear an echo.

lol, swing and a miss at a joke on my part. I was joking that you were laying down taking a nap from the picture orientation. Oh, well, sometimes jokes just fall flat.

Bowling Green beats NAIA Carlow University by 79 points, 129-50.  Bowling Green led by 53 points at half, 76-23.

Could have been worse.  No Bowling Green starter played over 20 minutes and the bench scored 69 of the 129 points. 8 different players, including 4 bench players, were in double figures.

Pitt up 17 on Jacksonville.   Pitts last 5 games have been decided by 4 pts or less.  Looks like they will end that streak of close games.  

[Uspshoosier]

Illinois St up 14 on UTSA in the second half.   Illinois St coaches rocking the ugly sweaters 

Little Rock up 2 on Jacksonville St early in the second half.   
 

ole miss/Sanford just tipping off 

with all these cancellations going on I’m just glad I got some college hoops to watch during this stretch

What can you possibly learn  as a team from a game like that? How (not) to schedule?

I realize that getting games at the last minute if Covid affected the schedule have an impact, and you want your guys to play against someone other than teammates, but jeeze...

Samford is about to win at ole miss

Maybe not.  Lol.  They didn’t block out on the missed FT.   Likes like Ole Miss ball down 2 with 3 sec to go

This game is crazy.  Ole Miss hits a long 2 to tie it up but I think it was after the buzzer.  Samford is going to win

You don’t learn, obviously.  But I think with a low D1 school it’s probably better than losing the home gate.  Guess you just have to come in with the attitude that you’ll get some guts some minutes that normally wouldn’t.

Bakersfield ended up winning it

Davidson up 6 at Bama at half 

[Loaded Chicken Sandwich]

Would be a big win for Xavier. Naturally, I have a very soft spot for Xavier and always have. Kind of a 1b type team for me. 

[Uspshoosier]

Davidson up 6 with 5 min to go
