Good call. I wonder what the family dynamic will be like if Jr. pulls off the upset.

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.

This is beyond sad. Even ASU would have more fans that that 30 minutes before tip.

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

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.

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. :roll:

Dunk City on hold for another year?

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.

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.

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. :lol: 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 am

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.

Yeah, it has turned into a pretty interesting game. If Auburn would just have some better shot selection they'd have the lead.

It was a good game until Auburn stopped competing and kept missing shots.

Yeah, it looks like the time change has taken it's toll. They haven't made a shot in nearly 10 minutes.

At Oregon they have enough to run a train on some poor passed-out coed.
