glduck Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Oregon is fun because nothing is ever off the table. Get blown out at home by Cal? Yep. Sweep UCLA? Ok. Get swept by ASU? You know it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glduck Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 Arizona is the first Pac team going into the tournament that I think can legit win it all since those three Howland UCLA F4 teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glduck Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Yikes. The B1G had one of the worst tournament showings of all time last year, and they follow it up with Richmond knocking out their tournament champ in a 12/5 upset. Also yikes — the Mountain West had a good regular season, but neither Colorado State or Boise State looked competitive in their losses in the morning session and Wyoming lost in the play-in game. The tourney is a couple of hours old and they’re already down to SDSU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBug708 Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 At this point, it's win and move on. UCLA looked UGLY yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glduck Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 SC looked really good for like 4 minutes of this game and nearly won. Needed to look good for 4:30 to win, apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only true black eye is Iowa losing to Richmond. Michigan offsets Wisky, and Illinois lost a 4/5 game to a team that went to the final four last year. Every other seed has held.

No. Tired of people giving the B1G a pass. They had 9 teams in the tourney, only 2 made it through to the round of 16 with 3 teams losing to lower seeds, 2 of them to much lower seeds. The Pac would be panned for a performance like this, I don't see why people need to try and make excuses for the B1G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glduck Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 And when you combined the last 2 seasons, the B1G has had 18 tourney teams and a whopping three made it to the second weekend. (to put a feather in our cap, the Pac has had 8 tourney teams and 6 have pushed through to the second weekend) Seems like the B1G of late has morphed into a conference that the committee and the computers love, but their top teams are a step behind when we all come together in March. I’ve noticed this anecdotally the last two tourneys we were in, when we were a 12 and 7, respectively, and ran Wisconsin and Iowa (a 5 and a 2) off the court. A lot of B1G teams seem to play a big, slow brand of basketball that isn’t translating. But again, the computers love them. There was an interesting graphic in yesterday’s Illinois/Houston game: Illinois had 6 Q1 wins to Houston’s 1. When you look at their schedules, Illinois lost to virtually every decent team they played non-con (Arizona, Marquette, Cincinnati), picked up one Q1 win over Notre Dame in the ACC/B1G Challenge, but then racked up 5 Q1 wins in conference play. Boom, 4 seed. Boom, out of the tournament in the second round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mano Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 B1G in basketball is reminding me a lot of the past decade Pac in football. A lot of decent teams that beat up on each other with few to no elite level teams. The Pac gets crucified for this in football, while the B1G is rewarded for it in basketball.

KUGRDON Posted March 24, 2022 Author Share Posted March 24, 2022 Flowers puts up 27, breaks Klay’s single season three point shot record as WSU heads to NYC for NIT semi-finals. Such a disappointing season of lost opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
