Why the hell did UCONN fans/students storm the court after their win over Texas?

Re: Telvised Games thread 1/18 thru 1/24

Kentucky is throttling Arkansas. Their road game against Vanderbilt may be the only game they lose in the SEC..

Arkansas sucks and was completely outclassed today. They crapped their pants at tip off and never cleaned themselves.

^ No clue.

Let's see:

We lost to an overrated KState team who lost to...Oklahoma St.

We lost to a then 12-6 UCONN team with no quality OOC wins.

That was after squeakers against Texas State and a mediocre at best A&M team who will be a double-digit seeded team at best.

For a team with this much talent, that's unacceptable.

Re: Telvised Games thread 1/18 thru 1/24

I dont know why you would think that Texas, Kentucky, and Kansas are better than Syracuse or Villanova, especially when the level of Competition that Big East schools play is light years ahead of what Texas or Kentucky has to play.

In my original comment I said it wouldn't surprise me if Syracuse or Nova joined that top tier. My reasoning for not having them in there yet was because 1. Villanova doesn't always play defense and 2. This year I haven't been able to watch Syracuse much, I always seem to be busy when they play. So I don't usually like to make assertions without seeing the team play that much.

But due to recent results I am thinking Texas doesn't deserve to be in the top tier right now, I feel their rotation might be too big right now and I am having a hard time figuring out who the "guy" is that Texas goes to in big moments. For example a Scottie Reynolds, Sherron Collins, Wesley Johnson, John Wall, etc.

James/Bradley.

Re: Telvised Games thread 1/18 thru 1/24

Not that I condone the chants, but you become the "bitch" of the other team when you do something like that in a road game. Something like that is not needed. I know you've been to a college basketball game before. You do something like that, the crowd is after you the whole game. Just put up the flush the normal way and go on your way.

For the record, I love Evan Turner and I wish he could go to the Knicks.

Good win for WVU. We needed that in the worst way.

It still wasn't right, though. Those chants need to stop.

James/Bradley.

I could be wrong on this but my impression of Texas has been with them playing so many guards; that they get away from Bradley and don't always go to him but your right about Damion James being that type of "guy". Its just usually when I think of the "guy" I tend to think to think only in terms of guards because they bring the ball up and usually have the ball in their hands.

Most complete game by UK this season. They played Arkansas who has played some tough teams very well as of late nad really took it to them for nearly all of 40 minutes. The defense was outstanding.

Arkansas was outmanned and UK should have won this game the way they did, but until today they haven't demonstrated the ability to really put a team away.

Whoever said that Texas is overrated, just wait. They are very good and sometimes a loss or two can really turn a team around. Even the 1996 UK team had 2 losses that year and they didn't seem beatable. I think UK, Texas, Kansas, and Syracuse are my top 4 picks for the Final Four, depending on draws of course.

Oh and what a turnaround for UK. From NIT last year to ranked #1 in the nation! Good times for UK fans.

*Should be Bradley, I don't like Balbay handling it. I'd rather it be J'Covan and eventually Lucas before Balbay. But James will bring it up the court sometimes.

Jimmy ****s is far and away the biggest homer in college basketball. Everyone knows UK will be #1...no need to remind everyone 17 times.

Re: Telvised Games thread 1/18 thru 1/24

That is why I love when teams don't call timeout. The defense isn't set and you can usually get a better look in transition imo.
