You just like going out of your way to rip on every Minnesota team don't you? Difficult to watch? I prefer completely and entirely average. We have beaten 2 top 15 teams this year. But yeah, losing at home to Michigan just can't happen.

Yeah, the Gophers are difficult to watch, though. They play good defense and their offense is putrid.

Uh, I'm a Gopher fan ( and Twins and Wild). They are difficult to watch because they piss me off.

As I said in my previous post, we lead the Big10 in scoring. Offense isn't the problem. Our defense is very overrated, people just assume that because we have a lot of good athletes that we're good defensively but that doesn't matter when you have a team full of morons. I'd say the only real good defenders on the team are Damian Johnson, Ralph Sampson, Justin Cobbs and Nolen before he got suspended.

As if North Carolina's season wasn't bad enough already....

Penn beat Cornell by double digits, most mind blowing upset of the season if you ask me. Cornell was ranked 22nd and Penn had just earned their 3rd win against Dartmouth the week before.

Some really good early games tomorrow.

Really good one now WVU @ Pitt. 23 seconds to go WVU down 2 with the ball. Here comes Da'Sean Butler... If it's not him taking the shot whoever does take one should be kicked off the team lol.

EDIT: So maybe I just jinxed him but that shot was like 70% in.

2nd EDIT: WOW what a shot, here comes 2nd OT.

wow sick game

damn Siena got smoked tonight


Palmer...Buckeyes vs. the Illini..who you got

[Scotty D]

This Pitt-WVU game is awesome, wheres Kevin Pittsnogle when you need him?

[GB12]

Holy crap. I'm hoping for OT3 though.

EDIT: which it will be.

[PalmerToCJ]

Wow... This game is definitely a good one.

Ill-OSU is definitely the game of the day on Sunday. Hard to say really. If it was at OSU I'd be all over the Buckeyes but given it's at Assembly it's a coin toss. OSU's road record isn't good but I think at least a few of those losses was when Turner was hurt which are really throw away games. Illinois just came off two big wins which makes me think this is setting up to be a letdown type game, especially with how OSU is playing. With a gun to my head I'd go OSU. Should be a good game, probably not quite this Pitt-WVU game though haha.

Ohio State should win. They are clearly the better team. However the same was true for Michigan State and Wisconsin. That would be an extremely impressive run if they could knock off all three in a row. Illinois will fall back to reality eventually, just not exactly sure when that happens. I'll take OSU to start that fall on Sunday.

[bored of education]

I think OSU rolls easily. But I want to bear Evan Turner's children

[yo123]

Ohio State is Evan Turner and nothing else. Buford is ok I guess. Illinois is the overall better team in my opinion, Demetri McCamey is a stud, most underrated player in the conference

great game back yard brawl

Rupp was nuts today for Gameday, I love it.

Looks like UCONN is all but out of the tournament.

I expected Duke to beat Maryland given they're at home but not as much as they're beating them by right now.

Vandy is losing to LSU at half at home which is just mind blowing.

Jason Bohannon has 7 three pointers and 30 points total as the Badgers are destroying Indiana.
