UNC vs. Duke is gonna be a blowout. Duke looks like crap this year. It seems that everyone on their team has regressed since last season.

UNC has the look. Duke lost their swagger without the Landlord and JJ.

It's a pity that some of the Duke fans on here don't want to admit that.

Also, Jamar Smith and Chester Frazier won't be playing against Minnesota. :roll: This year is cursed. :evil:

I can't wait for the UK vs. Florida game next week, I honestly think if Morris can stay out of foul trouble that Kentucky has a chance to win this.

I could go out there for him and Illinois would still win.

Eh, idk. This game worries me. Btw, Randle is still injured as well. Go figure. :roll:

Should be an easy game for us but you never know. Especially with how things have gone for us this season.

At the Hall baby. We already won in Minnesota, so it should be a no brainer but like I said with the way our season has gone this is anything but a sure win.

It will be no problem at all. Minnesota lost to a D-2 school, from my hometown. Sure, they are national champs and #1 in the nation, and undefeated, but still.

I think there is a chance that UNC vs. Duke could be a blowout ... but I think there's also a chance that it's a much better game than some think. College basketball is the one game where, while depth is always preferred, it isn't as significant, as a well-coached team that utilizes their timeouts can succeed. With the relative inexperience of UNC this year, it does seem that if a team can get superb guard play and slow the game down, they can keep it close. Now, this would require Greg Paulus to be on top of his game, but Duke has the potential of doing that if Paulus is on, as they'll play solid team D. Not saying Duke will win, but I think this could be a very intriguing game if Paulus is playing well. If Paulus is struggling, yeah, they'll probably be smacked around.

Duke Vs. UNC is almost never a blowout, they bolth always come with their A game even if one is having a down year. IF you do not know this, you don't watch ACC basketball.

so that makes the starting line-up for UofI what PG-Meachum SG- McBribe SF- Brock PF-Carter C- Pruitt. I really dont like fraizer being out because now we only have one point guard which could end up hurting UofI. Im fine with Smith being out though cause he has been ice cold, and you can tell the injuries are still affecting him.

Buffalo is actually leading at the half
This presents a chance of possibly winning a game :shock:

[GB12]

Wisconsin beats NW and Indiana loses to Iowa.

DJ White was aboslutely awful today and there were just way too many fouls. They've done that all year and it could kill them come tourney time. Errek Suhr almost won this game for IU though.

[SuperMcGee]

OMG Buffalo wins a game!
Now we need to take advantage of the easy part of the schedule and get out of the cellar.

[portermvp84]

Good game between Iowa and Indanna. I'm just glad Iowa pulled it out.

[GB12]

UNC-NC State game is close.


Also Marquette won and they retired Wade's jersey.

[GB12]

UNC loses!!!!!!!!!!

What happens now?

[wingboy2999]

Old Man Sam Young is probably the coolest man on campus....... because he looks 50 when he is a sophmore.

[SuperMcGee]

UNC :(
But anyway, I'm glad Huggins n crew won today. Always liked Huggins

Now please A&M, please beat Kansas

[sweetness34]

Well a win is a win I guess for Illinois. Wasn't pretty but I'll take it. Ugh, this is has just not been a good year all around for us. But hey, we're at the .500 mark now in the Big 10, and that's pretty damn good for all the crap we've had to go through this season.

[regoob2]

Well UNC lost :( . I know they have the offensive power but what do you think about their D. It didnt seem they could get key stops

[GB12]

So what happens with the rankings? Had UNC won they would easily be #2, but both they and Wisconsin lost. #4 OSU has 3 loses while Wisconsin has only 2 and the head to head win over OSU. UCLA is at 5 and beat Oregon but will that be enough to put them up to 2.

1.Florida
2.Wisconsin
3.OSU
4.UCLA
5.UNC

or

1.Florida
2.UCLA
3.Wisconsin
4.OSU
5.UNC

It's Wisky and Florida at the top, no question. I've seen both teams play this season and they're the best IMO.

Btw, Wisky won GB, what the hell are yout talking about?
