2025-26 College Hoops Thread

[MU82]

#20 Auburn wins in OT over mighty Bethune Cookman, 95-90.

Rough start for Little Pearl.

AUScoop must be in meltdown mode.

Yes.  Koa Peat was beyond impressive as was Dybantsa.  BYU is a very dangerous team if they figure out how to defend. 

I didn't watch a bazillion games yesterday, but I watched a few. Peat was the best defensive player I saw. He was everywhere and kept making impact plays. I like the pace Dybantsa plays at - controlled, confident.

I'll give some props to Nova. They rallied from a double-digit deficit to take a lead fairly late in the game, and hung in there right till the end. They took some inadvisable 3s, but they made some bombs, too. Might be better than most thought under Willard? We'll see.

I sure hope so. Williard is such a lovable guy.

Boise State lost to a Division II school, Hawaii Pacific. BSU musta been distracted by their own blue field.

Lindsay is a very good 3pt shooter and he got hot for Nova.  It was surprising that they tied it up in the 2H but the game was never really in doubt.

Yes.  The game that was tied with less than 6 minutes to go was never really in doubt

I had a friend tell years ago that MU got "run out of the gym" in a game, versus a team I can't remember, that MU never trailed by more than 10 and lost by 7.

This is actually garbage.

What is "actually garbage?" Are you suggesting they should have known they were going to beat Boise?

Agreed. If these games counted for NET, everyone would load up on them. That would be "garbage".

Also, something tells me that if BSU is on the bubble, the committee will take the game into account.

[CountryRoads]

What is the reason that D1 teams can schedule D2 teams in non-exhibition games?

Garbage that it doesn't count against Boise State's resume. Basically just a free loss because they chose to schedule a D2 school during th regular season.

It will count.
