Nice win for the Beach.

Rochester native Gabe Madsen lighting it up for Utah. Seven 3’s vs Houston pretty much keeping them in the game.

He has been a great pickup for them over the last 3 years.

Is his brother playing there too? I thought they were a package deal coming out of high school.

They both started at Cincinnati, but then Gabe went west and Mason went east and is at Boston College.

We only play Maryland once this season but I'd love to get payback for the three losses against them last season.

I’m sure it’s just the setting, but that Pentagon court looks small. Like a few feet short.

Gosh, I was going to try and follow or at least pay some attention to the South Carolina- DePaul game last night. Couldn't do it because of residual effects from Thursday's debacle.
Gamecocks 74 and the Blue Demons 68.
Cooper with 31 minutes, 9 points, 5 assists, 2 turnovers. 4 of 6 at the stripe and 2 of 6 on FG
Kid Kool-Aid off the bench with 16 minutes, 4 points on 1 of 5 shooting. 2 of 2 at the line and 2 turnovers.

Oregon State is not good (to understate it) but that's a 20 point neutral court power conference win for Nebraska. Think they've had all 5 games with D efficiencies under 100; with how soft the middle/lower-middle of the conference has looked my intrigue level in them is slightly raised.

This BIG non con is a disaster. They might as a collective unit have 1 win against a tournament team so far

Dennis Evans and Louisville vs. #19 Texas right now on ESPN. 15 minutes left in the game, tied. Evans with 4 fouls.

Multiple mentions of wingspan.

I see that Evans has 2 blocks, 4 fouls, and absolutely nothing else.

The offensive plan for him appears to be stand outside the lane by the baseline and move to the top to set a screen, and under no circumstances pass the ball to him.

Bethune has all the makings of a Sweet 16 team........

Minnesota kicked the shit out of Missouri in such a way as to make a winless Jackson State win on the road at Missouri.

 

[stocker08]

Missouri just blew a six point lead with less than a minute to play against Jackson State.

They used up all their good fortune on Thursday.

 

[stocker08]

One of my top ten favorite sports weeks. College Basketball tournaments.....meaning that bball starts early and is on all day.....all week.

0-5 Jackson St just went into CoMo and beat Mizzou.....great look for us

It's one early season game, not a best of five. Who cares? I'm old enough to remember when DII Chaminade beat #1 Virginia with Ralph Sampson in a holiday tournament.

 

[MUgopher32]

That Mizzou team is not good at all. Will get beat bad most nights in the SEC.

The good news is the Gophs were trucking them until they stopped coaching like a D1 team.

Bad news of course is, they ultimately got a L to that bad team.

It's going to end up being a bad loss in the only OOC game of note. We should absolutely care, given the context of how the game played out and what Missouri did today.
