Texas is done. They might beat some pile of shit in the 1st round (as a 3 seed), but they're not getting past anyone with a pulse at this point.

I see them losing Saturday @ Waco and then maybe getting 1 win in the B12 tourney. Going into the Dance having lost 4 of 6, this feels familiar!

Jordan Hamilton has regressed to 2010 style play and the team has followed suit. Just laughable. Please, go to the NBA and take this gut wrenching feeling with you. Tristan Thompson is still amazing. He was the only reason we were even in the game tonight. He should be freshman of the year.

That's pretty much how I feel about WV, too. I have hope, but it's hard to stay very optimistic.

I watched a good part of the Texas game last night. Looks very much like our play. Texas is leaving the corners wide open, and no one under the basket(same shit we do). Against good passing teams you're gonna get beat like this. K-State looked pretty damn sharp though, great job of executing on the offense, moving the ball around A LOT, and boxing out for defensive rebounds(especially in the 2nd half).

We've got UCONN tomorrow night at home, and Louisville at home to finish the regular season. If we win both of those games, I might change my tune. I'm guessing we lose both.

This wisconson rematch will tell alot... BUt they stand a chance this year at least...

Kansas... OSU... Duke...Pitt... BYU shoots itself in the foot because their player drank alchohol

Lobos took out #3 BYU again tonight, this time in provo by 18! Two season sweeps in a row baby!

WV played a fairly decent game last night. Fully exposed UConn, I hope everyone was paying attention because we showed how to beat UConn. They can not penetrate a good zone defense, which forces them to take perimeter shots. They play their star players waaaay too long and by the end of the 2nd they don't have the strength to put up those long balls. On man they can/will hurt you. That's two games in a row we've switched to zone with 5 or so minutes left and utterly confused the hell out of the other team. However, realize these aren't normal zones, last night was a point drop, and against Rutgers was the 1-3-1. Huggy is on to something here, the end is where we have been letting games get away from us.

Watched most of the Duke/Clemson game. Didn't realize Duke was so predictable and gimmicky. They do execute really well for the most part. The only reason they will do well in the tourney is due to being a high seed. They will not repeat.

Interesting. Texas has never been very good playing zone D or playing against it.

[Mikes2nd]

duke and purdue choke... OSU wins the big 10, woot..

Florida wraps up the sec

[HilbillyHomeboy]

WVU FTW! Boys did me VERY proud, wow!

Just like I said, Duke is gimmicky and predictable. They're nowhere near the caliber of team they were last year.

At least we quasi-righted the ship for the B12 tourney. I don't think we have the legs to beat KU (if we get to the championship). We'll see if we can actually start making jump shots because if we can't (which we haven't been), we won't get there anyway.

WV is the 6 seed for the BE tourney. We play the winner of thr Marquette/Providence game. Should be Marquette, but they've been goofy lately. Either way, we should win that. Then we face sPitt. For the 3rd time this season they will beat us. They're just too fucking good. Truly the real deal.

Agreed. Pitt is a team I'd rather not run into in the tourney. Once was enough this year
