Today's Nonconference Opponents "Games of Note"

[ripemupshocks]

Indiana wins. Bad late game management by Iowa.

[ShockerFever]

I can see why nobody wants to come to Iowa to play for McCaffery. He's a major doucher. He had another meltdown on the bench again today.

[KC Shox]

Has anyone else noticed Gonzaga is 5 - 0 against the Big 12 and we are 0 - 0? Hey Big 12, throw us a bone will ya we aren't exactly RPI killers.

01/03/12 - Green (good/win) and Red (bad/loss) - FINAL

Dillard (DII) at Southern Mississippi(USM won 134 to 41)
Northern Colorado at Weber State

[Speed]

That Dillard team, was that the men's suit & alteration dept. or the cosmetics counter. Or perhaps the shoe dept. w/every player sporting something from the Johnson & Murphy collection?

Tennessee is playing Memphis on espn2 right now. Memphis has led from the start land leads 42-28 at the half. Memphis is shooting 64% from the field while the Vols are only shooting 28%. The arena is much quieter than when we played the Vols and there are a sizeable number of Memphis fans in attendance. At least you can hear them (they have had a lot more to cheer about).

There was a missed goaltending call with about 2 minutes left in the first half. A Memphis player clearly blocked a ball on the way down but nothing was called.

[shox1989]

Tennessee trying to hang close, now down 64-54 with 9:10 left in the game.

[shox1989]

Tennessee now down by 6, 66-60 with about 7 minutes left.

[shox1989]

Now down 69-64 with 5 minutes left.

[shox1989]

Memphis up 79-75 with 45 seconds left.

[shox1989]

Memphis sent the wrong guy to the foul line, you would think that would be a technical but one wasn't called. Memphis is making their FTs, little chance for TN to come back and win.

Tennessee made a great comeback after being down by at least 21 in the second half. But it is going fall short.

Memphis up 83-78 with 7.7 seconds left. Final Score Memphis 85, Tenn 80.

01/05/12 - Green (good/win) and Red (bad/loss) - FINAL

Charleston Southern at Radford
Western Carolina at The Citadel
DePaul at Providence
Howard at Coppin State
Lehigh at Virgina Commonwealth
Northern Colorado at Idaho State

[JaminShock]

Howard leads 31-25 at half and CSU leads 40-32 at half. Neither Radford or Coppin State are any good, but any wins are good wins, especially road ones.
