This was the tweet from Josh Margolis - Can't add anything more than that.

Gardner-Webb does not have a single player over 6'7". Only had 3 wins over D-I teams before today, all 3 v. KP sub-300. Brutal loss for Neb

I was guess he meant 3 wins vs D1 team for this year but not all time.

I probably interpreted it wrong in my original tweet but you just watch yourself troublemaker, Santa's got his eyes on you!  LOL

Just didn't want any Gardner Webb bulldog fans that might of been visiting this site to get shortchanged on some D1 wins. Lol

UNC you had one job.

Gardner-Webb held on for the win, only the 3rd game they've ever won against a D-1 school.

I got to watch a little of the game. Nebraska had no energy. None. And neither did the 20 people in the crowd.

It's official. If you lose to Penn St, you've hit rock bottom.

Sparty down 10 with 2 min to go. It's time for the time keeper to do his thing to help Sparty get back in this game

The B1G, as a whole, is way down. The collective losses far outweigh the collective wins. Sparty losing at home to a directional school? Neb losing to a terrible GWU team?

[hsrtxp]

Down goes MSU 81-73.

If Northeastern won by 8, what is Northwestern gonna do? Is the entire MSU athletic dept tanking the season?

Do not overlook Izzo and the Spartans.  I would never bet against Izzo and his coaching ability.

Northwestern will do Northwestern things. MSU will beat them. 

[Uspshoosier]

Crazy how perception of coaches and programs can be. If iu lost to the 137 Ken Pom rated team at home some people would lose their minds even more then they have losing to 17th rated Ken Pom on a neutral court. Izzo and mich st can start 5-4( could very well of started 4-5) and national media and others can just say wait until march and izzo will be dangerous.
Which past history has proven this to be the case ( except last year middle Tennessee showed up). I know his history but I also believe each year u start with a different team and with as many new faces that play a big part in their program this year, none were around when izzo's march magic has actually worked. Izzo has earned the pass he will be giving I just find it as an interesting topic of perception. Having said all this I will still probably have Sparty in the elite 8 lol

Well, they play on the 30th. They've got 2 weeks, not 2 months to figure it out.

I think that MSU with Miles Bridges is pretty good, but not all that good.

Without him? No way, no way, no way. Not with Izzo, K, Auerbach, and Wooden all on the coaching staff.

Still should of been able to beat a northeastern team at home that probably has a bunch of unranked kids and maybe a 3 star kid while Sparty still had a bunch of those coveted 5 star kids even without bridges

Seems like the new equivalent to the Owner/AD showing full support "kiss of death".
