2009 NCAA Men's Basketball
 

College hoops are in full swing and with a record losing streak to start us off no less!

Any thoughts on PSU being a part of this historic moment Colonel?

Meh. The Nits have never been really strong in mens hoops. Still, the Highlanders ... well, suffice it to say I had to reread the article to get their mascot right. :lol

IU isn't looking too hot this year. Rebuilding and all. Looks like I'll still have PU and ND to root for. GOGO BIG 10.

Mighigan knocks off 4 UCLA. I must say I definitely didn't see that one coming.

Tubby Smith and his Golden Gophers have Colorado State this weekend. Here we go...4-0!

I know it's early but who wants in on the 2nd Annual I-Mockery Bracket Bunch?

Milhouse, R U E to defend your crown?

I'm in. :rock

I'm down.

We need to get the thread set up. Is Gadzooks doing the yahoo bracket then?

I wanna play too. :x

You betcha :x

lookie at this

I thought that kind of stupidity was reserved for computer AI

That's hilarious. I don't understand why Loyola's coach did it. He boasts about holding him scoreless, but the negative attention he's getting right now over it outweighs the attention he'd be getting if Curry had scored 30+(which is none, because no one gives a shit about Loyola.)

That's why some coaches will forever be second division.

"History Major"?? What was he thinking? :confused

Did anyone else see the Davidson/WV game tonight?

Curry is a monster. Dude hit two very late clutch 3's to put them over the Mountaineers. He missed his first 12 3's but knocked his last 3 and still managed to score 27.

Down goes Louisville as the 9th ranked Cards lose to Minnesota in Arizona today. The job that Tubby Smith has done at Minnesota is nothing short of amazing. Gophers are now 10-0 with a neutral site win against a top 10 team that starts two sure Lottery Picks.

Plus, the Gophers practically led wire-to-wire. Pretty amazing. They could break the rankings this week.

Once again the Big Ten is getting the toe up the arse. Two undefeated teams and eight with three losses or less--yet only one team(Purdue) in the top 10. Purdue ranks high because of its preseason position, despite the two losses to OK and Duke. Most of their starting rotation are sophomores, with star Hummel leading the pack. But this is not a great rebounding team--partially because of injuries. Minnesota and Ohio State are undefeated, the Gophers being ranked 23 with a win over #19 Louisville. The Bucks lost star David Lighty to a foot injury but keep on plugging. The team has beaten #8 Notre Dame as well as both Miami and Butler. The Spartans of MSU have two losses--one to the Terps and one against #1 NC. But they put down the Longhorns in Texas. Maybe all of this is immaterial, since North Carolina looks like Michael Myers.

Impressive, there are NBA players, considered among the all time best that have never reached that mark in a game.

Kentucky just lost their third in a row tonight against Miss State. Billy Gillespie has been a stand-up job there.:lol

The tournament is drawing near...

March Madness! Bring it on!

Who will be setting up the "i-mockery bracket bunch" this year?

If nobody objects, I'd like to set it up.

Seconded.

Thirded.

I'm totally gonna lose brackets this year. Things are too up in the air. Providence upsetting Pitt!? Maryland fresh off a win vs. UNC poised to upset its other ACC rival, which I'd love to see. Blake Griffin out indefinitely (costing OK a game against Kansas)... I get the feeling that it's going to be a wild and wooly tournament.

I assume whatever said bot was advertising he did not put the pic in that post Executioneer edited :D

Indiana has officially hit rock bottom:

Oh how the mighty have fallen...

Another comeback win and the Gophers beat dirty Sconnie once again to complete the sweep this season. Somehow Sconnie went up by 5 with just a few minutes left after ONLY SCORING 16 points in the first half. Granted, we only scored 23, but c'mon.

As a bonus, enjoy this little ditty featuring Sconnie coach Bo Ryan aka the Grinch:

:lol

O/T, I'd love to see the same montage featuring Jerry Jones.

Big changes this year for the Tourney:

:lol

That'd be sweet cause then the Terps would make it. :(

Swarthmore! The Swarming Earthworms will "dig" out of the 4096th seed hole. :rock

Temple! The Owls are back!

On the other hand, Penn is down & out. :(
