College Bball Thread

Illinois St/Ohio probably game of the night.  TCU/St Francis on TNT at 8.   Still can’t watch Sec + and Acc extra so don’t get to watch Malik play for Miami.

Since refs have to work 4 trillion times a year, DJ Painter Carstensen (big bald) is reffing high flying IU Indy, I hope they go so fast he passes out.

Edit: They're catching their breath by taking a 10 minute review for a ball that might've gone off a fingernail. I kid you not, they had the review screen inside a giant metal briefcase that the nuclear button would be in. Sorry for the blurry pic, I couldn't do a screen capture of an ESPN+ game for some reason.

They said something about reviews last night and mentioned coaching challenges, but I missed the gist of it. Has there been a rule change in that regard?

Yup, this time MACtion made them bring all their teams instead of just a football cameo.

There's a 50% chance USPS has this tattooed on his back, kinda lengthy

Might try Alice Cooper for solace.  He will welcome you, I’m sure.  LOL

Totally off basketball topic, but the new The Revenge Of Alice Cooper (with the original band) is among the better albums I've heard this year

Wilmington v Delaware tips at 11, then Calumet College of St. Joseph v Evansville at noon. Both ESPN +

Hemenway is still playing college just in case anyone was wondering.  lol.  I watched that kid play AAU on the circuit back when I went around to those events.   Transferred to Vandy last year but didn’t play and now finishes his career(hopefully) at home at Evansville 

[LIHoosier]

What the hell, Delaware?

[Home Jersey]

Three D2 teams have beaten D1 opponents this season. Those 3 D2 teams have combined for 1 D2 tournament appearance all time (they're really, really bad).

Hawaii Pacific (qualified in 2017) beat Boise State by 1.

Northwood beat WMU by 4

Wilmington beat Delaware by 9.

Wild stuff!

GTown started out with an 11-0 lead but Maryland got it down to a 5 pt deficit at the half.

[AKHoosier]

Good win for Georgetown on the road.

First home opener loss since 1976 for Maryland.
