I'm trying to see where their first loss comes from. Well, at least until UConn's visit to the dome 11th Feb.

UCONN isn't good enough to beat the Cuse this year.

This is THE DEEPEST team in Syracuse EVER...as far as I am concerned. Boeheim in the past, could depend with MAYBE 2 players off the bench and just about it. Now, he goes 4 deep and almost fields a whole 2nd team. This is also the most amount fo shooters the 'Cuse has ever had as well. You have 4 or 5 guys that have very good to excellent range. The zone defense has been better in the past...but it is still the best in the country. The CAN be streaky on the good and bad...but mostly it's been good.

Boeheim also doing some really unusual stuff with his lineup. He's got starters who don't play many minutes...Christmas starts every game but only plays like 10-11 minutes a game. Scoop Jardine also starts but gets less minutes than some reserves.

Whatever, I guess...it's working for now, so why change it.

That is due to how deep this team is.

I guess he doesn't think Christmas is very deep LOL. Deep or no deep it's still a very strange rotation.

Well Pitt is just terrible this year, I guess after 10 consecutive years of going to the big dance missing a year is ok.

Pitt lost too much talent to the pros.

They missed a ton of layups...

wild game last night at "The Ralph"

University of North Dakota (yep no nickname anymore...thats what they go by now) beat North Dakota State 59-54. 1st time the 2 teams played in Grand Forks in 8 years (they played last year in Fargo). It was a fun game to see on TV. Crowd was so into it.
If they do this again it NEEDS to be on a weekend. They would have had a lot more folks there.

Murray State survives at Morehead State and is now 19-0

Well, we managed to win @ ND, minus Boatright. (the NCAA can pull their thumb out anytime now!)

 

[SandraC]

I wonder what kinda seed Murray State will get if they go through the season and conference tournament undefeated...

[Mr Tony]

4 seed

Saturday night on ESPNU they had a great point (I think it was Mark Adams the color guy who said it)

"If Murray State runs the table until Bracketbusters GameDay SHOULD be held at Murray, KY"

 

[Mr Tony]

Thank goodness ESPN is giving Murray State some lovin...any game not televised by ESPN or the Racer TV Network (road games) is being picked up on ESPN3 starting with Saturday's game

Notre Dame isn't the same this year now that they lost Hansbrough and Abromatis.

West Virginia got robbed today. There should have been goal tending called and it wasn't at the end of the game.

It was a bad call and should have counted, they would have gone into OT....where anything could have happened.

 

[Mr Tony]

21-0 Murray State

Congrats to Murray State for cracking the top ten for the 1st time in their school's history!
