2024-25 NCAA Basketball Thread

The SEC has won 67 games in a row as a Conference...woah.

Since we wouldn't get the W at Iowa State, would it be accurate to say the largest resume opportunity on our schedule will ultimately be the road game at UConn?

Yes. It's a shame that our most difficult conference road game (@uconn and @creighton) will not carry the same gravitas that they likely should. But true road games in harsh environments against good teams (including tonight) will always be the hardest games to win and worth the most gold stars on selection Sunday. It's not a mystery, there's a reason we are underdogs as the #6 team in the country today. Life's tough on the road

[K1 Lover]

The Purdue win will be just fine. They have wins over Alabama, Ole Miss, and Maryland already.

Win tonight and our resume is awesome. We'll be at worst tied for the second most Q1 wins in the country.

Yeah I have no doubt Purdue will still age well. Just thinking we could benefit from a truly large, headlining win if we somehow end up being in the 1-seed conversation, or if it comes down to it, fighting for a 2-seed.

[GoldenEagles03]

Butler needs to stop fouling. They can win this game. Telfort basically hasn't even played and they are right there.

My wife's been making cookies so my mind is wandering.

What kind of cookies?

[PGsHeroes32]

Badgers cant make a shot

But living at the line again

[The Sultan]

What kind of cookies?

Shortbread, chocolate chip, pecan sandies and fudge.

[MuggsyB]

Shortbread, chocolate chip, pecan sandies and fudge.

Nice. 

[The Sultan]

Nice. 

That's why the "will you clean the bathrooms while I bake some cookies" question is always a solid "yes."

Cookies solve problems.  I like those Amarettti mini cookies.

Spot on Muggs, but they can also create problems like Diabeetus.

True.  I'm very careful with my sugar intake.

Drug addiction is bad

Coffee is one of my indulgences but I don't think it's bad for you.  Especially premier 100% Kona Peaberry.

Don't let the medical community fool you.  Coffee is fine for you.  There isn't any proof coffee does anything to the human body.

I've gone cold turkey with coffee before and my blood pressure remained exactly the same.  I indulge a bit but I think I'm fine.

It doesn't affect blood pressure.  That's a lie told to us by big pharma
