2014-15 Games of Interest

[WuDrWu]

The big priest is 0-1 on the road this year.

and somehow the MVC is a respectable 5-6 in true road games without any of the wins coming from WSU. I would have guessed much worse than that before I actually looked it up.

Villanova will definitely jump us, and rightfully so.

Why? Signature wins?

Villanova pounded a good VCU team and then beat Michigan the very next day. Both games were at a neutral site.

Also, like the Shox, they had a pretty good year last year too. 28-3 in the regular season. NCAA 2 seed but lost in the round of 32 to eventual national champs UConn.

That's a pretty good week for Nova.

#5 North Carolina down 48-42 to Butler with 11 minutes left.

BIG EAST.

Game on for Evansville vs San Francisco

[ShockTalk]

Butler is in huge foul trouble. They have to finish this off in regulation if they want it.

They also have 27 offensive rebounds, while UNC has used its 14 FTA disparity to terrible effect, making just 55%.

If UNC had not played so bad themselves, they would have won. I'm glad they didn't, but Butler was driving me nuts. Butler was doing all they could to give the game back to UNC and UNC wasn't causing any of it.

After Butler went up by 14 with 8 minutes left, they showed poor ball/time management jacking up most shots in the first 10 seconds of a possession. That would have been fine if they were shooting well and the shots were quality shots, but Butler was 1-14 FG (a single put-back). 6 of those misses were 3 pointers with 4 of them coming during the first 3 minutes of that time while they still had a double digit lead. 13 of their last 15 points came from FTs. Butler also had 5 turnovers during that time. The big difference was that they got so many offensive rebounds.

Evansville looks like they've got a win over San Francisco under way

EDIT: got it done

Mock is a double double machine (when they get him the ball).

Two shades of purple (UNI-NW) on CBS Sports.

[Cdizzle]

Utah and NMSU up big. LMU up 8 with 4:30 to go. Hopefully our schedule can keep piling up the wins.

Things I am thankful for: 1. Bruce Weber is not our coach....

Stephen Hurt sure had a nice seat on the bench to watch Pitt destroy the Mildcats.

UNI has a nice team. They look significantly quicker this year despite mostly the same roster.

[Dave Stalwart]

It kind of fell through the cracks because it's in Alaska at 2am and espn doesn't pull it up in today's games but MoST is playing Colorado St tonight, too.
