Watching Eddie Lampkins personal 7-0 run getting Barclays Center on its feet against Texas after watching a gritty Seton Hall win against a veteran VCU team and just happy college bball is back.

I know we used to have threads for other games so figured this would be nice for that!
 
Watching Ducks-Beavs right now.

Oregon starting 4 transfers and a JUCO signing, so pretty much their norm.
 
Go USF. Too bad they're playing at that Chase center and not on campus. I hate when they do that stuff. Why play mostly empty NBA arena when they could be playing in a packed arena on campus?

Agreed that this should be on campus, as it’s such a fun, intimate place to catch a game in person.
 
Weird thought- when in the Pac we used to root for all the PAC teams in OOC because we were always perceived as a less then league nationally and there was always an OSU or Cal that would go like 7-25 on the year and steal one from us away and it would kill us.

For the Big 12 do we want to root against the mid-low tier big 12 teams OOC as they could theoretically steal a bid from us and the Big 12's standing nationally is so strong it won't really matter if the mid or low tier teams lose. I get we want the Kansas, Baylor, Houston, Arizona, Iowa State's to do well but everyone else not too sure.

Just wondering who I should root for in the early season. A bunch of good games today.

Oklahoma State and Miami today
Pitt and LSU
Wisconsin vs UCF
Seton Hall vs Vandy
St. Johns vs Virginia
Texas Tech vs Syracuse
VCU vs Nevada
Nebraska vs Creighton
Mississippi State vs SMU
Baylor vs Tennesee
Duke vs Arizona
St. Louis vs Wichita State
 
Always root for your conference in the non-conference. We've got to play them anyway so may as well have all our B12 games be Quad 1 or 2 affairs for our SOS.

I know you're right, but ****... I don't know if I can do that.
 
How has Miami fallen off so damn hard over the last 2 years? That is one sh!tty team.
 
I'm not a huge college basketball follower, so hopefully some of you guys who know more can chime in. Is our conference under-performing so far this season? I know we're just a few weeks in, but I saw that Texas Tech lost to St. Joseph's, Zona was whipped by Wisconsin, etc. Are we just hanging our collective hats on KU this year? What teams have looked better/worse than you expected? Can CU beat the pre-season predictions? What say ye?

Tech’s loss wasn’t ideal but it’s going to be an “ok” loss when it’s all said and done. Neutral site. Mediocre opponent. Probably a B level loss on KenPom.

Arizona is absolutely shutting the bed and needs to cut that crap out.

Houston’s one loss was to an Auburn team that was willing to fight for it and is damn good. Baylor is the only other “top” team in conference that has losses and they’re on the road to Gonzaga (who absolutely pantsed them) and neutral to Tennessee who is a top 10 team.

It’d be great if a few of these flipped the other way but other than Arizona nothing I’m really freaking out about.
 
#6 Houston came back to force OT with #9 Alabama

Some fantastic games today.
 
Sean Miller trying his damndest to not drench another pullover in sweat on FS1.

Battle 4 Atlantis started today. Oklahoma got caught with 6 players on the floor at one point. No idea how that happens at this level.
 
Just tuned in for the end of UNC-MSU.

RJ Davis still playing college ball was a surprise. He's got to be the same age as some guys who just negotiated their 2nd NBA contract.

Anyway, 1 point game with a minute left. Fun.
 
UNC got killed by Auburn and then clearly outmatched by MSU. Not a top 15 team. If they can not get hot in 3pt shooting, they can't compete with other top teams.

MSU got some really nice pieces and might be top15 teams in the end of the season.
 
Great slate of games today.

Gonna check out Illini vs Cal's Arkansas team at 2pm.

Tonight finishes with Lobos vs Sun Devils tipping at 9:30.

One of the rare Thanksgivings when the basketball is more interesting to me than the football.
 
1. #5 vs #6 being on ESPN+ is hilarious.

2. I wonder if not all streams on ESPN+ are equal. This Marquette-ISU game looks good. The previous CU games I watched (not including the one that was completely unavailable) seemed laggy. Like live sports used to look 4-5 years ago when streaming. Do different games get different tech/bandwidth/whatever the f*ck you call it?

I pay for a high school sports streaming platform. Helps to be able to go back and watch my games at times. I'd compare ESPN+ to that. My guess is the cameras and what not they're using are specific to the school?
