2022-23 NCAA Men's Basketball Thread

[MuggsyB]

Muggsy, you are right.  Just saw Fran replay on Twitter.  He should have been tossed. Also his team would probably have a lead had he not done that.

100% total boneheaded reaction by McCaffery.

Still a bad loss to Wisconsin

Wisconsin is just about guaranteed to be 12-2 if they hold on here.

Lehigh
Grambling
Western Michigan
Minnesota

in their next 4.  Should be a NET helper for MU.

Still a bad loss to Wisconsin

A brutal game to lose, idk about a bad loss.  UW could win the B1G.

[MuggsyB]

Brutal defensive breakdowns for Iowa.  Crazy stuff.

Playing and beating that array of Losers shouldn't do much to help Becky, I wouldn't think. Their respective NET rankings are:

#106 Grambling.
#241 Minnesota
#318 Leheigh
#346 Western Michigan

Zero chance at winning the B10-12-14-16

Not so sure.

Purdue and UW are the only 2 teams at 2-0 so far.

Illinois dug themselves an early hole with the 0-2 start. Rutgers (who just lost to Seton Hall at home) beat Indiana by 15.  UW and Purdue only play once and it is in March I believe.

Go Purdue!

[GoldenEagles03]

Watching Mississippi State against Minnesota and they just look so beatable.  Missed opportunity for us, but maybe we'll get a rematch in March.

[tower912]

Mississippi State is going to find their rhythm and pull away.

[MuggsyB]

We should have one loss.  Oh....well. 

[wisblue]

Maryland, Rutgers, Ohio State and Iowa are all better then Wisconsin.

And yet the Badgers are 2-0 against those teams already. Looks like another top 4 finish, if not another conference title for UW.

[MuggsyB]

Iowa lost at home today with Wisky shooting 1-16 from three through about 30 mins.  That's on them and McCaffery losing his freaking mind over a nothing play. 

[wisblue]

Seton Hall won a 45-43 thriller over Rutgers.

Rutgers might be 2-0 in the B10 if they hadn't fouled up by 3 with 7 seconds left against OSU.

How are you doing Blue?

Blue, blue!!!

well if like 4 or 5 plays went a different way...

We have to figure out how to win close games.  We lost our composure. 

[tower912]

We have to figure out how to win close games.  We lost our composure.

Three freshmen, three sophomores, three juniors.   Respect the process.

We suck

[tower912]

Minnesota/Mississippi State announcers just said that MU's 55 points is the most that MSU has given up in a game this season.

They play unreal defense and are now up 14 early in the second half, in their first true road game.

[wisblue]

How are you doing Blue?

Good, it's just taking me some time to get focused on the college basketball season. It's been awhile since college football has required any of my attention this late in the year.

[MU82]

We should have one loss.

We have exactly as many losses as we "should" have.

And had we won any of those three games, fans of those teams would have claimed they "should" have won.

[GoldenEagles03]

They play unreal defense and are now up 14 early in the second half, in their first true road game.

They are playing Minnesota.

I know their defense is great, but their offense isn't anything special and they are beatable.  We probably should have beat them too.  Oh well.

[Elonsmusk]

Well, we do rank 323 in the "luck" category, so there's that.  Meanwhile Miss State ranks 91st in luck and Wisconsin 183rd before there 2nd OT win in a week..
