College Basketball

[cheezydemon]

Thanks for the good luck, I would agree with you. But then again, I agreed with the whole nation when it said Louisville was going to clobber us in football and then look what happened.

So...It should be a good game. Our fresh are really stepping up in the absence of Devo and Rautins, except for that West Virgina game

Absolutely! We clobbered WV and Marquette. At that point I would have been saying "no chance" even louder! But then Seton Hall had the best game ever and ended up beating the cards. Who saw that coming?

Here's to a good game!

I don't pay much attention to college sports, but I have noticed the men's basketball teams are almost all black and the women's teams mainly white. It would seem that the black guys should have tall, talented sisters and vice versa. Very strange.

 

[cheezydemon]

.........OK. Our womens team is mostly black for what it's worth.

GO CLEMSON!!:rockin: Ranked in football, basketball, and baseball.

 

[cheezydemon]

Dammit! My cards look good. They beat the ranked teams but lostto Uconn last night. (in their defense Uconn beat IU too last week)

GO BIG EAST!

Never count out a team coached by Jim Calhoun:rockin:

Grew up in lawrence. KU Jayhawks BB fan since 6years old.
Of course a big 12 fan except for mizzou. Tomorrow is the big game, can beasley and walker take on an entire team?

Michigan State Spartans!

I'm smelling a final four berth this year. And the freshman class!! Hoo boy, if they stick around for a few years, watch out.

Now if only my cable company would carry the Big Ten Network, I could actually watch more than every third or fourth game. Fans of Big Ten teams know what I'm talking about.

Well spoken, finally they are ranked! I can't really believe we aren't and Marquette is. We have spanked them by 18 or so twice this season.

Have you noticed that Georgetown and Notre Dame have the easiest schedules?

We got to play Georgetown and Marquett twice.

Notre Dame is 2nd in conference now.....HA! they have played the fewest games and the weakes opponents. That WILL change soon.

College Gameday is in Louisville Saturday and we are headed towards that game against Georgetown like a freight truck....Rutgers by like 30 points, Marquett by almost 20....Georgetown by(?)..........

 

[Professor Frink]

I think you're all missing the big idea here - UNC vs. Duke tomorrow, #2 vs. #3, Let's Go Tar Heels!

 

[cheezydemon]

Big to you maybe!

None of it really matters until march.

 

[cheezydemon]

OK when your unranked team beats the #16 team and the #6 team in the same week......








HOLY $HIT!!!!!!!! We Smoked Marquette and Georgetown.

Down by 8 at the half, and then we win by 8!!!!! Freaking awesome game. At half I wasn't even sure I wanted to see the rest of it. But of course I had to. Good thing!

 

[FatMonsters]

I particulary liked Pitino's Colnel Sanders outfit...that he ditched for the 2nd half

 

[cheezydemon]

Lol. That was frigging hilarious. That guy doesn't miss a trick. I heard several excuses for the wardrobe change, but my gut is that he wanted to make a statement to the team. Like "OK now we are here to play."

And don't you love the poles? beat the #16 and the #6 in one week, and you get 23rd in the AP and nothing in the espn/usa.

Marquette goose egged the week to unranked teams but still remained in the espn/usa poll.

DURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

Cheezydemon, love the way the Padgett is palying this year, he is finally healthy, hopefully for a while. My team is the Nevada Wolfpack. Kinda young this year, but still in the run for the WAC title.

Padgett is form Reno, and we were kinda disappointed when he went to Kansas out of high school. I watched him in high school a couple of times and he is really good. His dad still has some records from his playing days at Nevada.

College basketball is the best!

They do that with SU, but the opposite. We could be ranked, lose one game, and suddenly it seems like were out of the top 25. Duke loses a game and drops one slot. WTF? Not this year I know...Besides, we don't belong in the top 25 this year.

We should have beat Georgetown and UConn. And for not beating them, that's why we'll be overlooked again for NCAA, unless we take the Big East Championship...That is if we get invited to go (ie - if we don't fall out of the top 12 teams...)

SU vs Louisville is coming up!

 

[cheezydemon]

And Good luck to you Brother, all games are good in the Big East. I am looking forward to it!

rfidd, I agree. He is a beast! He made Hibbert look bad for Georgetown. No easy feat.

And nothing racist!! My favorite players are black, but it does my heart good to see a white boy who can really play!

 

[zugzwang56]

man I can't believe I haven't seen this thread. Good to see another Cardinals fan here Cheezy. I was at the Georgetown game and it was magical. Absolutely amazing.

Soundly beat DePaul last night and for you UK fans out there, what about that Vandy game. Ouch. 41-11 at half time hurts. They couldn't get anything going for the life of them.

 

[knarfks]

I'm glad pagett went somewhere and is doing well. When he said he wanted to play guard and be a ball handler at 7 feet his days at KU were numbered. He didn't fit in well at KU for some reason.
JR giddens is doing well somewhere else too, but I don't think you would find a KU fan that would want him back. Consistently took bad shots and passed up open ones, and only looked for the 3...he was 2nd to only lebron in the dunk competition, but not once in 2 years at KU did I see him drive the lane.

Yep, It hurt real bad but I still bleed BLUE!!!!!!!Go Cats......

Rock Chalk Jayhawk!

Here it comes brother!!!

Jayhawks indeed, but I have met a lot who said good riddance to Padgett and said that he wasn't all that good. If they are smart they are eating their words now.

 

[cheezydemon]

Well......Louisville is rolling. Just executed Pitt on the road. 7 wins in a row, including: Georgetown, Marquette, Syracuse, Pitt, etc.

 

[PseudoChef]

Go 'Dores!

Man, I hate UT fans.

 

[cheezydemon]

Notre Dame tomorrow. The BIG EAST is a frigging BEAST! No easy games.

 

[cheezydemon]

Has a 3 seed ever beaten a 6 seed by 30 frigging points?

The cards EXECUTED Oklahoma.

 

[aekdbbop]

Who would have thought that WKU would be in the sweet 16???

GO BIG RED!!!

 

[cheezydemon]

Indeed! Are you an alum?

Imagine WKU and U of L meeting in the final 4! lol. Fun to imagine anyways.

Yeah, just graduated in May..

I think we are going to have a problem with UCLA this Thursday.. but we've made a good run so far!

 

[cheezydemon]

I wish you luck, but my bracket needs UCLA to win! Currently winning my work pool.

UT LOOK THE F OUT!!!!! It will be a good game, but NOONE is playing better than the Cards right now.

Executed 6 seeded OK by 30 points????IN THE NCA Tournament??????? Holy Hell.

Look out Tennessee!
