So who is starting up a GAF March Madness Pick em? I want in.
Also sorry if old but anyone post the 2 dunks by Kwame Alexander? Nice dunks
As a Big Ten fan, I honestly think it's reffing. Big Ten teams spend the whole conference season beating the crap out of each other. It's hard to score points when you're doing that. And because half court offense is such a pain in the ass, every team is hellbent on eliminating fast break opportunities to stop the other team from getting easy buckets.i dont understand "big 10 basketball" - 16-22 with 2:29 left in the first half? reminds me of Wisconsin-Mich St the other night, the halftime score was 19-31 but only because michigan state went on a big run at the end of the half.
is it 'solid defense'? I know OSU's got a good defensive rating, but UK does as well and we go on to score in bunches...it's like every big10 team is fine with a super slow paced game, and will only 'run' when the other team wants to -- see the IU-UK game from december, or when the other team is just...bad (see OSU v. minnesota, purdue).
on the other hand you have like the vandy-ole miss game from the other night. 102-76. or the duke game, heck, 78-73. i just dont get games where both teams are low 50's/60's.

Some teams (Michigan State) translate that style into something that works in March, others don't.
Not sure I've ever felt this bad about a 30 point win before. I knew it was going to be a sloppy game playing Texas Tech at home, but Kansas looked thoroughly uninspired the whole game.
The next 3 games are huge for us. At aTm, home for Mizzou, at Okie State. The first one is a look-ahead game, then mizzou, then a let-down game.
Literally spit out my beer when bilas said Buford is a clutch shooter.
.
Why the fuck do people keep saying shit like this? Does anyone remember the Kentucky game?
Hold me Illini fans. Neither of our teams is making the NCAA's or even the NIT for that matter.
i remember that. knight's dagger, buffords missed 3, the world was right that evening.

I wasted $400 to go to Newark for that game.
And then I got lost in the asscrack of Jersey on the drive home.
What a night.
He would be a shitty NCAA ref that the NCAA picks to ref in a certain location.
And people are clearly blaming the conferences. Stating that omg i wish i was in the Big XII since these BE refs are so bad. When in reality, every conference has shit refs, everybody complains, and it is the NCAA doing the selection and cutting the checks.
No one is saying shit about the conferences, it's simply a reference to the group of officials that do mostly ONE CONFERENCE. Maybe they do others, but the BEAST crew is mostly Higgins and Burr. Refs like Hightower and Valentine do Big Ten games.
It has no relation to bitching about the conference, so please shut the fuck up about it, because no one is saying that.
I wasted far more than that going to the 06 bcs champ game. Not sure I was more depressed that night, or when I got the bill from that trip.
Took me about 2 minutes to realize who you were with the radical avatar change...
I watched my username movie last night and it's almost baseball season. Time for a change, I need a bigger picture though.
