RIP

Ben Howland

Alford needs to bench all of them for the half

 

[Seth C]

Welp.

 

[Mik317]

Holy fuck

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

WCS and Towns are so good, they are leading just a historic defense.

 

[Fjordson]

Good half.

 

[Seth C]

Good half.

Lol

 

[jakncoke]

Struggling against Oakland wtf is this team even..


also man that kentucky score i fucking hate kentucky and their fans but goddamn that score.

 

[jakefromstatefarm]

I don't expect Alford to keep his job through next season. You look at UCLA's roster right now and it heavily leans on holdovers from Howland's tenure...and his son. You throw in Alford's documented control freak streak and you get a picture of a guy you do not want representing your program.

 

[CronoShot]

UCLA has 7 points at half. Seven fucking points.

Ludicrous.

Struggling against Oakland wtf is this team even..

If you're struggling against Oakland, we're probably going to be screwed Monday.

 

[Branduil]

This is the kind of game that should get entire Athletic Departments fired. Unfortunately, that disgusting slug Guerrero has no real accountability. If he did, he would never have been allowed to hire Alford in the first place.

Im a lil drunk to remember your team but wouldnt worry too much, Pitt is literal garbage this year. worst ever in my 13 years as a fan

 

[Elfforkusu]

Back from the game.

Rayvonte Rice for President

 

[Pollux]

I was hoping to keep them below 20

 

[DominoKid]

and finally the walkons are in.

 

[HeisenbergLannister]

R.I.P. UCLA.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Is this UCLA's first year playing D1 or something?

 

[perfectchaos007]

Isaac Hamilton is a punk so I'm glad their UCLA team sucks

 

[thefro]

Nice win for Indiana over Butler today.

Hopefully not the only game this year that Troy Williams hits shots instead of throwing up bricks.

 

[iamblades]

Don't look now, but after today's games, Kenpom has UK favored in every regular season game. Finally turned that UL game from a 50/50 game(with UL getting the nod cause it's a road game) to a 55% chance for UK to win.

11.2% chance of an undefeated regular season, 20% if they beat UL next week. After UL the only team with (barely) more than a 25% of winning is @Florida.

The projected record is still unchanged at 29-2 though.

 

[jakncoke]

I hate this season

 

[perfectchaos007]

upset alert in East Lansing

 

[inm8num2]

MSU without Dawson is not a pretty sight to behold.

 

[iamblades]

Are the michigan teams having a competition to have the worst loss of the season or something?

Eh I guess this is still better than NJIT though. Barely.

 

[bronkonagurski]

Yeah it was a good win for them. Beating Georgetown and getting to 11-2 heading into conference play would be nice.

 

[perfectchaos007]

Texas on upset alert now

 

[sf2fanatic]

Is this UCLA's first year playing D1 or something?

Na our players are shinning in the NBA just like the UK players.

gonna be a long season

 

[ryseing]

So we have 21 TOs.

Only reason we're still in it is because WV can't shoot and keeps fouling.

FUCKKK we can't break the press.

 

[perfectchaos007]

Washington upsets Oklahoma and remains undefeated. They could make noise in the Pac-12

 

[iamblades]

Whoa KU getting shit out by Temple.

 

[perfectchaos007]

Whoa KU getting shit out by Temple.

Kansas always looks like shit non-conference. Then once conference season starts, they turn it on. I hate them for that

 

[Seth C]

I'm sure Bill Self is just letting them lose to teach them a lesson again. I know if Kentucky and Kansas played again today it would only be a 3-4 point game.

Maybe in Lawrence, but right now at a neutral site or in Rupp, it would be a UK blowout

 

[Seth C]

I'm just repeating what the delusional Kansas fans were saying earlier this week. On a good day Kansas loses to Kentucky by 15. They can't play within 20 of Temple right now.

 

[iamblades]

Also Oklahoma is joining the 'hold a team to single digits in the first half club today it looks like.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Dana O'Neil ‏@ESPNDanaOneil 12m
Purdue loses to Gardner Webb. At what point do Big Ten teams take the check in guarantee games?

So apparently the Big Ten is junk, ACC is junk, Kansas is junk...

 

[inm8num2]

Hooray, Michigan State beat The Citadel tonight to bounce back from the loss against Texas Southern.

Before this season I had a feeling it would be a bumpy one with the team on the bubble in March. We'll see if Izzo's tourney streak stays alive...

 

[bachikarn]

Alternate answer: Big 12 sux

 

[Seth C]

Sometimes I can't tell if Bill Walton is completely insane or a total genius.

 

[Elfforkusu]

So apparently the Big Ten is junk, ACC is junk, Kansas is junk...

Everyone sucks!

Except for Duke and Kentucky. Just cancel the tourney and hold the final now!

 

[perfectchaos007]

Alternate answer: Big 12 sux

That would be a valid conclusion, except that the rest of the Big 12 racks up quite a few quality out of conference wins, and many teams will finish with a much stronger resume than Kansas. But Kansas still wins the conference every time.

Also, 70% of Big 12 teams are AP ranked this week. Big 12 is the deepest and strongest conference in the country

Deepest, yes, but strongest, no. ACC has 3 teams in the top 5.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Deepest, yes, but strongest, no. ACC has 3 teams in the top 5.

And 12 teams in D2.

 

[perfectchaos007]

And 12 teams in D2.

D2?

 

[Randolph Freelander]

D2?

Division numero dos.

 

[perfectchaos007]

Division numero dos.

Yeah but then I guess I don't understand what you mean by the ACC having 12 teams in D2

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Yeah but then I guess I don't understand what you mean by the ACC having 12 teams in D2

Mostly suggesting the middle and bottom of the conference are garbage.

 

[perfectchaos007]

Mostly suggesting the middle and bottom of the conference are garbage.

I follow you now. Sorry I'm a bit slow tonight. I blame the looming Holidays


edit: I'm glad I stayed up for this Hawaii/Nebraska game just for that highlight alley oop by the Hawaii team

 

[Wellscha]

Did Bill Self Assassinate Seth C?

 

[perfectchaos007]

Deepest, yes, but strongest, no. ACC has 3 teams in the top 5.

That doesn't mean you have the strongest conference. By your metric, actually the SEC would be the strongest conference because they have 100% of their teams in the top 1. Disregard the fact the other 13 teams in that conference are unranked with a mediocre RPI's.
