Of the 12 coaches, Rush picked the one whose fans have the deepest passion, the longest memories, the greatest lung capacity and … did I mention deep passion?

Only interesting game really is Minnesota LouisVille. Pitino Jr playing his dad.

Good call. I wonder what the family dynamic will be like if Jr. pulls off the upset.ASUHATER! wrote:Only interesting game really is Minnesota LouisVille. Pitino Jr playing his dad.
By the way, I briefly went to Middle School with Rick Jr. before his dad got canned as the coach of the Knicks. He was kind of a dick.

Re: non conference game thread
This is beyond sad. Even ASU would have more fans that that 30 minutes before tip.

Utah/Ball St. Looks like Millers coaching tree is becoming very productive. Ball St looks vastly improved this year in Whits second year

Loved the fight in Navy. A few poor decisions from pulling off a huge upset.

Okie State, wow just sad
Re: non conference game thread
Wazzu went to El Paso and got beat by 13. Miners too big.
Saw some of the Zag's game. They scored easily. Wesley might be their best all-around player. Sabonis looks good. Pangos healthy. Should be an interesting game.

Re: non conference game thread
I watched some of it during the commercial breaks of the ASU game. The announcers kept making a big deal about USC having the #12 recruiting class in the nation. Yeah, that sure helped them.

For some reason, the coach seems to lack charisma/personality. Think he'll do well if he recruits well, but wonder if he's over his head in the Pac-12.
Re: non conference game thread
Kentucky down to Buffalo at the half 38-33.

49-39.

It's long past time to bring this back to the court, let's do it with a small update:

Interested in the Gonzaga-SMU game, as soon as they cut this dank Stanford game off.
Re: non conference game thread
Looks like there's about 1500 people at the Oregon basketball game. Every Pac 12 game I've watched so far besides ours are more than half empty.

Gonzaga has more than it share of Eastern European big men.

Looks like they had Wiltjer playing some 5 their bigs in foul trouble.

Florida lost to Miami 69-67. Fire Billy Donovan! Their offense is in trouble!
Re: non conference game thread
Gonzaga looks legit. Better than I thought, actually.

Re: non conference game thread
This 11pm tip for Colorado is a joke. Does ESPN really think people will stay up and watch them play Auburn?
On a more amusing note, some Colorado fan threw something on the court, and they were warned if it happens again it's a technical. Though I do have to give their fans credit for mostly filling up the place.

It's their 24 hour tipoff marathon they do every year. Saint Mary's and new Mexico state play at 1 am. There will be games tipping off at 3 am and 5 am and 7 amAZCatGirl wrote:This 11pm tip for Colorado is a joke. Does ESPN really think people will stay up and watch them play Auburn?

They should at least do something like that on the weekend. Monday night really isn't the best time.

It is a pretty good game, definitely more competitive than Gonzaga - SMU and not nearly as ugly as ASSU and Buffoon Cookman.AZCatGirl wrote:This 11pm tip for Colorado is a joke. Does ESPN really think people will stay up and watch them play Auburn?
Re: non conference game thread
Yeah, it has turned into a pretty interesting game.

Yeah, it looks like the time change has taken it's toll.
