Marquette doesn't even get a shot off coming out of a timeout with plenty of time. Yeesh. Regardless of the outcome of this game, they are not good. Not right now anyway. FWIW Dayton is 73 on KenPom, so not a slouch.

Will be really interesting to see how NBA teams rate Peat at draft time. The risk averse teams are gonna call him an undersized 4 whose range won’t extend and the smart ones are gonna say, yeah, but no one stops him and he moves well enough to defend. 

Yup. Said it in a comment after game 1. Great player, but juuust enough of a “tweener” I could see NBA teams being iffy to the point he at least considers coming back for a boatload of money vs possibly slipping out of the lottery. Sadly, it may come down to his tourney performance as it seems half the nba gm and owners don’t start watching until then.

Maryland pulled away in OT.   Low majors and mid majors choking on the road at a high major after  being up most the game is always going to be a thing.  So many opportunities wasted by teams in the last minutes of a game.  Like clockwork every year

As long as they are in the NET top 50 at the end of the year then it’s all good

I am going to hate playing Illinois this year

Marquette going down in flames.

Marquette will probably end up beating Purdue and balance out these early losses

First half of Illinois vs Bama is some of the best basketball this year so far

Alabama taking control. But “home” crowd will bring ILL back in it.

Love my kids dearly. They are absolutely NOT getting the invite if I’m sitting on the floor next to the other team’s bench.

In a game where no one watched because it was on BallerTV,  Incarnate Word beats Southern Indiana in the boardwalk battle and will play the winner of High Point/UIC that just tipped off

BallerTV?  There's a dirty joke in there somewhere.

The joke with BallerTV is on whomever buys that crap. They were the source for 3SSB  streams and I bought a day pass for $10 a couple of years ago to watch an event and the stream was complete trash. Constantly buffering. half the time the cameras weren't moving. Gave up after a couple of hours. An utter screwjob.
