College Basketball Fans?

LOL, yeah, de be bad.

I have to agree about the sloppy play of both teams...especially Indiana. Kentucky has too much maturity for those kind of frosh turnovers and mistakes. (They looked a bit like my Ducks with their 8 freshmen! ) Speaking of which...Oregon slaps around Kansas State in one game and then gets beaten by San Diego in the next? Consistency...we need it...would be nice if these guys treated each possession like it's precious...cuz it is.

Amen there bro. FWIW, San Diego flat out kicked KY a$$ last year! Unless things have changed drastically, they are a very good team. KY has got to stop giving up too many turnovers. It is killing their game. I still say it comes right back to fundamentals. For example, KY can't seem to hit a free-throw to save their lives! Come on-that is a free shot. I don't get it. To be honest, it is almost pathetic. I mean, if KY can't hit a free shot, then think about hitting a guarded shot. Sorry for the rant, but as a long time KY fan I am becoming impatient. Both, with the program itself AND the coach for allowing such laziness. Pitino would never put up with it. Maybe it is time for Billy Clyde to go. Unfortunately, I am beginning to think so myself like many other KY fans. At this stage of the season, I don't think KY could even beat the University of Evansville let alone Western KY. Very troubled times here in Big Blue Nation!

Cheers,

Ouch, Phil. That's sad fan-talk for it being so close to the holidays.

But yeah, free throws. The Ducks beat #8 Texas if they made their free throws. Dumb. My wife can make free throws.

Sorry, I get a bit emotional when it comes to my Wildcats. Just have to overlook it. I do agree, however, that not hitting free throws is not good. I suspect there may be a coaching change in the very near future as KY fans are growing tired of the way things are. As with anything, only time will tell.

Oh man, the University of Evansville will be playing North Carolina Thursday night! This will be interesting, but lets face it North Carolina is the $hit. Did, I mention they are ranked #1 in country? I guess UofE has a good team this year, but playing North Carolina....????? Anyways, just thought I would mention it. Heck, I may even go to the game. BTW, the game will be televised live on ESPN at 6:00 PM Central time.

Cheers,

[speakerman39]

My bad, the game will be in North Carolina. Would be a long drive for me. But hey, if you are going to dream why not dream big I always say.

Cheers,

Phil

 

[speakerman39]

Well, the Purple Aces lost to North Carolina tonight. I must say, however, that UofE put forth a valiant effort. Kudos to them for doing so. With that being said, once again North Carolina proved why they are the #1 ranked team in the country! It was a better game than I thought it would be.

Cheers,

[speakerman39]

Well, my Cats looked quite good today. It is about time! Hope this trend continues.

Cheers,

Phil

 

[speakerman39]

Holy smokes-Meeks scored 46 points alone in that game! That is a school record and his personal best ever. Kudos to Jodie Meeks. Just wished KY could play that well for now on.

Cheers,

Phil

 

[speakerman39]

Glad to see my Cats still doing well. However, the rest of their schedule looks to be much more challenging. Will find out soon what they are really made of. Who knows, my Cats may surprise many of us. Lord, I sure hope so.

Cheers,

Down Goes Carolina!!!!!

Whoo-hooooo! The title says it all! I love it! Way to go BC! At Blue Heaven, even! I guess Blue Heaven is a little more blue tonight!

Not to mention my Clemson Tigers are still undefeated. Their next game will be a tough one against Alabama, though!

 

[speakerman39]

My Cats lost today to Louisville. However, it came down to the final seconds. At least, my Cats lost with dignity. Kudos to Sosa for hitting that 3-pointer to win the game!

Cheers,

Phil

Come on March Madness....

 

[speakerman39]

Come on March Madness....

OMG.........amen there bro! My absolute favorite time of the year. Early final four pics? I would venture to say that you can go ahead and write down N. Carolina and Pittsburgh. There are a few other really strong contenders. That is, teams like UConn, Purdue, and Syracuse to name a few. What are your thoughts?

Cheers,

Phil

 

[speakerman39]

My Wildcats beat Vandy!!!!! Woot! Woot! This was a very good game. Unfortunately, I only got to see parts of it. Just as I had hoped-my Cats are getting much better!!!!!

Cheers,

Phil

Hi cuse and welcome to the forum. I will say that Syracuse is a great team. To be more specific, I see them making it to the Sweet 16. Only time will tell.

Well, I have to gloat while I can; my Clemson Tigers are now 16-0 after beating the Wolfpack Tough times are a'comin, though, as we have Wake Forest on Wed and the Heels after that.
Looks like the Big East is really tough this year! Lots of teams in the top 25. Like the ACC, they will beat up on each other all season long, though. Hopefully they will still be well enough when tourney time rolls around to be up to the task...as long as the Heels lose.
Should be a great game on tonight with the Heels taking on Wake!

Duke, I am looking forward to seeing what happens between Wake and NC. Should be a great game. Glad your team is doing great!!

No, their best is 17-0 which they did two years ago and also in the '86-87 season. I almost don't care how they wind up if they can only beat NC at Blue Heaven. The Tigers have started fast in the last few years but tend to fade once in league play. Right now they are 2-0 with one win at Miami, so not too bad. The played NC really tough three times last year only to lose. They should have won the first match up at home. Losing really took the air out of their sails for the next several games and had a bearing on them not doing as well the rest of the season, imo. We'll see!
It's game time! I really want to see NC fall again, but that would only make it harder on my Tigers later this week.
