Depth is a huge problem in college basketball because some refs are seemingly on a mission to blow the whistle as much as possible for the first 35 mins a game. I almost never see a college game anymore where 2 or 3 key players arent in foul trouble. NBA refs make some bad calls too but you dont see the whistle happiness resulting in 1/2 the teams in foul trouble 1/2 way through the game.

Chance to win you're football loss back to me?? Valentines Day Massacre?? Not!! Sun Devils get it done at home on Friday night!

I totally agree on Syracuse. I feel like they can run the entire table.....no losses.

As long as you promise not to spit on me after the game!

I think Duke beats Syracuse next Saturday.

Cuse is always one hot 3 point shooting team away from a loss. This will happen in the tourney. when they aren't in the 2-3 they leave their comfort zone.

more so when you play the 2-3

I have been wondering what you guys think of some of the top college players' chances at the NBA level. Guys like Wiggins, Parker, Randle, Smart, Embiid, Fair, Ennis, McDermott, etc.

They are an under dog. Pitt is minus 2 across the board.

Nice call, though to be fair it took a pretty crazy shot.

I don't know, games in the 50s don't really get the juices flowing for most.

I know there isnt a stat for it but Pitt has to lead the country over the last 20 years in losing games they should have won. Differnt players, different coaches, same results.

dylbert · #17 02-12-2014, 09:22 PM

My Final Four today

ARIZONA
DUKE
MICHIGAN STATE
IOWA

Gotta love Wildcats v. Blue Devils championship game!

Yes, I doubt that this will hold. Too many games left before Selection Sunday... Oh, someone is going for 3-peat in pick em contest too.

This is the equivalent of Stephan Curry banking a long trey and getting it down. I think Syracuse was ahead for 1 second in the second half. But at the pay window, they never ask how.

That was a ugly loss. Just gave the game away.

My brother and I did our $200 future last night. He got first pick based on coin flip, I got next two.
He took Cuse, I took Witch St and Kansas and he took Duke. Obviously its more then likely no one wins, we covered 4 of about 12 teams that can win it. Its not what team goes furthest, you gotta win it all.
We did our NBA one also. We take 4 teams each in that. I knew he was on OKC and the Clippers. So I took first pick and gave him next four. I took Miami. He took OKC,LA, Indiana and Portland. I got Miami,SA, Houston and GS. The NBA bet is like free money for me. How he left Houston and SA for Portland and LA is unexplainable. Plus for a bonus I have GS, who I still believe in and am confident they will go on a run.
