 We are about 19 hrs away from the best sport on the planet beginning the regular season.    This is like Christmas Eve for me.   I cannot wait to begin this long journey of college basketball with everyone on here.   This thread is now a part of my college basketball watching experience.   For older posters you know the drill.  Come in and enjoy games.  Someone will always be in here ready to talk about the season.    For the newer posters that are hoops junkies come in and introduce yourselves and enjoy the ride.  We might have disagreements and go back and forth on certain stuff in here but at the end of the day we are all in here because we love this awesome game.   I’m hoping with IU hopefully being good more people will stop by and join the fun.   Slate tomorrow is lacking but that won’t stop me from watching in the college basketball room. 
 

games to watch tomorrow 

Baylor/Miss valley St (noon   First game of the year)

IU/Morehead St

Michigan/Fort Wayne 

Indiana St/Green Bay

Ohio/Belmont 

Murray St/St Louis 

Vanderbilt/Memphis

most of these are only on espn+ so not much viewing for people who don’t have it On regular tv probably a bunch of blowout games 

Thanks in advance to everyone that comes along for the ride.    Always more enjoyable sharing a passion for something with others during the season     I told Mrs USPS and the Little USPSs I will see them in April (kidding of course…..)

 

Murray St/St.Louis is one that could have implications late in the year as mid majors try to claw for a spot.

EDIT:  took a look at what Murray St has coming back….they lost a ton.  Joined the MVC this year and bartovik had them in the bottom half.

Auburn/George Mason could be good tonight

Michigan/Fort Wayne actually has some upset potential.

Your feng shui needs work.  Need another screen on the left side of the room.

I do in March.   If you want to talk to Mrs USPS and tell her I need another one during the season that would be great.  Left side has no room it’s dark but there is a couch around there

Baylor went on a 19-0 to stretch their lead to 30 at one point.    Up 38 with 30 sec to go in the first half.   Best thing about this game was finding out today is future Bears day meaning that elementary schools are at the game.  Now that’s a field trip.

I hope we do this at some point. Too many young people in this state are growing up fans of UK, OSU and other out of state teams.

If Baylor still had Matthew Mayer they'd only be up five.

Sounds like you need a bigger room! [emoji6]

I think that is more about those teams being more successful in the day and age of social media. Kentucky gets the big time recruits and Ohio State had the elite football program. Indiana has had.... Yup.

To the surprise of nobody here Archie is trailing at home against a team he was favored against. The more things change I guess
