I really don’t care to watch other games when we are not playing.

So frustrating.

Yesterday, stuck in a pretty empty airport, I watched North Carolina Vs Virginia, sipping coffee at a mimosa bar. Can't remember the last time I watched a non-Wildcats, non-Tournament college basketball game. Probably an Indiana Big Ten game when Tom Crean was coaching the Hoosiers. Either way, UNC and especially Virginia looked pretty mid.

Akinjo learned that end of game play from Miller.

Had 19 seconds, down 3, dribbled it out chucked up a bad 3 point attempt.

Good job tech coming back from down 15.

Their vaunted defense didn’t show up on the road. Their refs didn’t either.

Would be nice if Auburn lost today. If they do, we’d probably have a shot at being ranked #2 on Monday.

More likely, though, we’ll be #4. And I wouldn’t expect Gonzaga to surrender #1 again for a while.

Baylor didn’t look good at all. Out of sync. Have to give OSU credit though. Their defense was tough.

Baylor is still a legit national title contender. They’re clearly just slumping a little at the moment. The Big 12 race just got more interesting.

Purdue is playing Illinois right now. I know it's in bad taste to root for Illinois but an Illinois win wouldn't be the worst thing in the world. I believe Illinois hasn't lost since they played us.

Kansas barely won on the road
Duke in a tough game (early) against Florida State
Wisconsin playing at Northwestern
Kansas State at Texas
Iowa State at Texas Tech
Tennessee visiting Vanderbilt down one in the first half

any of the teams outside Tennessee in the top 20 tonight who lose help long term with seeding for Arizona.

Nova’s gonna be a tough team to seed this year. They’ve got good wins and bad losses.

I’ve got a ton of respect for Wright. Would not wanna see them in our bracket.

im just saying a lot of road loses in conf play and lots of ranked opponents losing - i started doing this the other day when folks in another thread were chatting with me about Arizona and its seed........i was blabbbbbbing that the Cats most likely would be a #1 or #2 seed unless they "shit the bed" down the stretch (which could happen) in these last 15 or so games. i said Arizona wont have more than four loses on the season, thus keeping them in the top 8.

i wanted to start following the challengers and potential challengers for that periphery top 8 and how their win/loss looked heading into february.

well, as you can see, already five teams in the top 25 have lost in the last two days, four to unranked opponents.

so, once again, if Arizona can get a road sweep this weekend, they are one big step closer to all but making that a guarantee as other top 25 teams continue to lose around the country.

I don't have a good feeling about tonight's game. And, as always, in the PAC, I am usually pretty happy with a road split.

They’ll get better. That front court is elite. I see them making the 2nd weekend but someone will get them before they see a FF. I’m not sure they’re the National title contender i thought they were.

Still, i want no part of them and the refs come March.

They're getting some tough games from very marginal ACC competition. I could easily see them getting knocked out by a hot mid-major in the 2nd round. We'll have to see what their region looks like, but I'm not expecting much from them in K's final season.
