2019-20 Games of Interest

It's early but SMU is making Houston look horrible.

Up 3, final seconds, Kentucky fouls. Interesting strategy.

That happened in the OkState game also. Haven't these guys heard. Kenpom says don't foul.

[Aargh]

SMU found an interesting way to outrebound Houston in the first half of their game. Shoot 75% from the field (60% from 3). SMU has only missed 5 shots in the first half.

Guess we can add Jank to the list of genius' smarter than everyone. Bet he's pretty stoked about fouling up 3.

[pinstripers]

He should have

[Cdizzle]

They did.

[pinstripers]

I think the point is to foul before the shot

[Stickboy46]

SMU pulls it off. Lifetime contract for Jank!!!

Yep. Turns out playing against 5 other guys, and the clock, and the refs has a lot of variables you can't control. Weird.

UNI falls to Loyola .. watched a little bit of it. As expected UNI is a bunch of chuckers. Crutwig for Loyola is solid though. Really good offensive touch for a big man

Can he transfer and get a waiver?

Yesterday ended up being a mixed bag for the "Bubble Watch" and the Shockers, However, we got a few teams to lose on the 9 to 12-seed line so that is very good right now.

BUBBLE WATCH - 02/16/20

Other
Temple vs #16 Villanova - This is not a bubble game for Temple, but if they can pull off the big upset, it would be helpful for the AAC

[Ixiah]

Probably not the best place to post this but was checking out the remaining schedules for some AAC teams. Memphis appears to have the toughest - they still have to play WSU at home, @SMU, and Houston twice!

[Dan]

We have @ Cincy, @ Memphis, @ SMU, Tulsa at home. Not exactly cakewalk. Not to mention another round with Temple.
