Non-ACC.

Just so we don't clog up the board with every good game that is on.

Syracuse beat Texas Tech by 35. I thought Syracuse would win but not like that. I didn't see the second half b/c I fell asleep but I didn't think they would look that good, that fast.

Alternatively Wake Forest looks like it was struggle all year long. Good for us.

On tap for tonight:

UConn-Pepperdine ESPN U 11:30pm
Florida-Syracuse ESPN 9:00pm

I got UConn big and Syracuse by 10.

I'll use this thread.

Michigan State (#5) is losing by 14 at Hawaii w/ under 8:00 to go.. If they don't play better that Maui Invit. field is going to ROMP them...

11/19/2005 7:52:08 PM

Didnt Stanford lose to UC Irivine today at home?

11/19/2005 7:54:29 PM

Hawai'i won by 22 and UC Irvine won by 16

11/19/2005 8:18:02 PM

(7) Gonzaga vs (21) Maryland
(15) WVU vs (3) Texas
(20) Iowa vs (10) Kentucky
(9) Arizona vs Kansas
(2) UConn vs Arkansas

wow what a slate of games!

11/21/2005 10:44:39 AM

Whoa, nice. Those first three should be good.

11/21/2005 10:46:08 AM

WVU is so fun to watch. They are so well coached it's amazing. This would be a major upset in my mind right now but I think at the end of the year WVU will be a very good team..

Oh and Wake Forest is up 30-27 w/ 4 mins left vs UNC-A

[Edited on November 21, 2005 at 7:52 PM. Reason : yea I realize they are ranked 13 but a lot of people are doubting WVU..]

11/21/2005 7:52:01 PM

is pittsnogle still there

11/21/2005 7:52:32 PM

Yes he is.

And this is a fun game.

11/21/2005 7:56:37 PM

you broke your own rule by posting about Wake, anyways they suck and i think they will lose to an underrated UNCA team

11/21/2005 7:56:59 PM

TEXAS DIDNT HAVE ONE FIRST HALF OF PROSPERITY

MORGANTOWN

THATS HOW I ROLL

11/21/2005 7:57:47 PM

I heart WVU

Ever since last year when they won that classic over WFU (I've hated WFU ever since Chris Paul decided to give a nutshot to Hodge), I've been a WVU fan.

11/21/2005 7:59:33 PM

NC State needs to watch how WVU runs their offense

they are making Texas look average

11/21/2005 8:03:40 PM

I love watching WVU.

What shocks me tonight, though, is how well-coordinated they are this early in the season. They've made a couple of errors, sure, but overall it's incredible.

11/21/2005 8:08:04 PM

we last had a successful backdoor 2 years ago.

11/21/2005 8:08:55 PM

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE MOUNTAINEERS FROM MORGANTOWN? THEY ARE NOW DOWN AFTER LEADING BY NINE. DONT WORRY THOUGH BECAUSE WE WILL PULL THIS ONE OUT, JUST LIKE WE WOULD HAVE BEATEN VIRGINIA TECH IN FOOTBALL AND WILL BEAT THEM IF GIVEN ANOTHER CHANCE BECAUSE MY LIFE IS FULL OF SECOND CHANCES SO WHY SHOULDNT MY SPORTS TEAMS BE. GO MOUNTIES OR WHATEVER THE FUCK THEY SAY IN THAT BASS ACKWARDS PLACE.

11/21/2005 8:29:26 PM

WV about to win it.

texas has 24 turnovers. WV has had some really sweet plays offensively and defensively.

11/21/2005 8:58:08 PM

if WVU would only make some FT's, this game would be over already

11/21/2005 8:58:44 PM

well fuck.. WVU blew this one..

11/21/2005 9:01:50 PM

good job espn

11/21/2005 9:01:58 PM

I hope Texas loses


I hate it when schools dominate both sports.


Well, so much for that

[Edited on November 21, 2005 at 9:03 PM. Reason : sdfs]

11/21/2005 9:02:48 PM

WVU you been Pittsnoggled

11/21/2005 9:03:51 PM

There was contacct but you can't call a foul there...

11/21/2005 9:04:02 PM

wow poor WVU

Texas sure doesn't look like the #2 team in the nation to me

11/21/2005 9:04:57 PM

they went out nc state style

11/21/2005 9:05:03 PM

no, i think aldridge was actually falling backwards, in which case he definitely couldnt have initiated contact

11/21/2005 9:05:12 PM

Well, i'm a believer that a foul is a foul with 3 hours left or 3 seconds left but you know, FTs win games. It's like the kicking game in football.

11/21/2005 9:05:44 PM

NyM since you are so pro big east...you should be pulling for WVU

11/21/2005 9:06:17 PM

WV Pittsnogled themselves. Gansi was fouled though...but who know if they'd even hit the free throw.

And these announcers blow- "rule of verticality"

11/21/2005 9:06:32 PM

^^ I was. I even broke out a few beers b/c I was on edge..

doesn't mean I think they should have made that call though..

** I need a nap before the UConn game damn it but I'm not tired. Work is gonna blow at 7:30am tomorrow..

[Edited on November 21, 2005 at 9:07 PM. Reason : f]

11/21/2005 9:07:03 PM

GG TEXAS

11/21/2005 9:07:22 PM

They only make that call if you have "NC State" on your jersey


Duh

11/21/2005 9:07:42 PM

well bite me

gotta make them free throws

11/21/2005 9:07:50 PM

Texas had big problems holding onto the ball.

11/21/2005 9:08:08 PM

Arizona taking it to Kansas early..

Iowa-Kentuck in about 15 minutes. I'll probably lay down and watch that one since State plays Iowa soon...

11/21/2005 9:09:48 PM

Is Kansas supposed to be any good this year?


Haha... start the "Fire Bill Self" talk

11/21/2005 9:10:46 PM

im sorry

you dont turn the ball over 24 times and expect to win

Texas has problems far worse than WVU's inability to make FTs down the stretch

[Edited on November 21, 2005 at 9:11 PM. Reason : asdf]

11/21/2005 9:10:50 PM

But you'll miss Rafferty's nonsensical outbursts.

I went to about every KU home game last year. Their frontcourt has some raw talent, but the backcourt will have tons of problems protecting the ball and defending the perimeter.

11/21/2005 9:12:35 PM

That game was awesome, feels like march already.

11/21/2005 9:15:46 PM

i wanted texas to win so we can get the #1 vs #2 matchup in a few weeks

but that was bullshit...borderline block/goaltend but a clear body foul


gg espn on showing greenbay packer and seattle skyline during pittsnogles last missed freethrow

[Edited on November 21, 2005 at 9:27 PM. Reason : wtf was that packers at the end of this game?]

11/21/2005 9:26:00 PM

The block looked clean to me.

The body contact could've gone either way, though.

11/21/2005 9:27:00 PM

Arizona-Kansas is much closer than I expected.

11/21/2005 10:18:52 PM

rondo has like 19 rebounds

11/21/2005 11:28:31 PM

so i'm watching the UK vs. Iowa game, and i see two Iowa fans wearing football jerseys. is this a sports fashion faux pas? do you guys think it's ok to do this?

11/21/2005 11:31:48 PM

iowa is likely going to kill us on the boards

11/21/2005 11:34:28 PM

Some of my thoughts from yesterday:

-Gonzaga looks very good. Not athletic enough to run all the way through the tourney, but very disciplined and coordinated.
-Maryland should make the tourney this year. Very athletic, not so well coordinated. I don't expect them to challenge for ACC dominance, but they'll win some games.
-Texas seems a bit overrated. Great frontcourt, clutch, but they had a lot of trouble dealing with the WVU defense. Size was the only thing that kept them in that game until the end.
-WVU could legitimately challenge for the top of the Big East. Great defense, incredibly well-coordinated offensive attack.
-Iowa and Kentucky both played good defense but had significant offensive problems. They both need to work on finding some rhythm.

11/22/2005 12:12:18 PM

some good games on tonight
