    Indiana university update...

    had no clue that killingsworth transferred to indiana. figured his eligibility expired. i liked his game at auburn. thats as good an addition as any of their freshman recruits.

    Why the NIT is a joke....

    buddy: with all due respect, i think burns has enough credibility to offer his opinion. he doesnt post often but when he does, its often beneficial to the forum. i know a lot of 5,000-post idiots, and a handful of 100-post sages.

    nit monday: wichita at vanderbilt ....

    fwiw, there is a 7th non-conference opponent that played in nashville but it was ut-pan american. didnt want a non-board team to skew my numbers. but for those that do care, the box score is here. another low-scoring 1h for the visitor (22 pts)...

    nit monday: wichita at vanderbilt ....

    rander: because i love madjacks so much, i decided to go back and check the scoring breakdown for you. beside each team is their box-score line. the first number is their 1h points, then 2h points, then final score. toledo 21/36/57 vandy 32/41/73 tcu 26/29/55 vandy 41/37/78 cmich 15/39/54...

    nit monday: wichita at vanderbilt ....

    for the last few seasons, ive always capped vanderbilt as a team with a nice home court edge. the unusual layout of the floor and backdrop can throw even some good visitors off their game. after watching two mac teams (toledo and central michigan) go into nashville this year and throw up...

    scott -- some scattered replies to various parts of your post: carolina/saint/acc tourney if saint did indeed say that, then 'the boy done lost his mind'. im sure your paraphrasing (or at least i hope you are). saint strikes me as a guy with a lucid mind. cant imagine him saying the premier...

    NIT 3/21/05

    definitely think western michigan is the way to go there. they seem to be truly happy playing some sort of postseason basketball. cant say i like the vandy over though. that friggin gym and the way its set up seems to give first-time visitors all sorts of trouble. central michigan missed like...

    SWEET 16

    scott: youre asking vyrus what he sees in oklahoma state (and their last 8 games)... while youre sitting on a carolina future ticket when the heels came into the ncaa tournament having not played a dominant game since valentines day?

    Big 12 Sweet 16

    nickelback: why do you have it in your head that arizona plays in anonymity. this is the year 2005 bro. every single power conference team either has a package with foxsports or espn/abc that puts about 90% of their games on the air for the nation to see. not to mention arizona gets the...

    fullerton titans v. g-town hoyas (nit).

    thanks for the info. would never lay that chalk with georgetown, but your post has served its purpose if for no other reason than deterring people from a short-handed fullerton play. some teams rally around that stuff, but like you said, not exactly eager to jump on a shorthanded big west team...

    Big 12 Sweet 16

    michigan state? absolutely. thought the line would be duke -3. but with it opening at 4.5, im putting a 50/50 split on the spread and moneyline. utah? can definitely see that one too, although i have had a bitch of a time betting for/against kentucky this year. they screw me no matter if i back...

    Big 12 Sweet 16

    actually nice to see vegas really step out and take a stand on a lot of these games coming up. installing ncstate, louisville, and arizona is ballsy on their part. this much i do know -- arizona is done after thursday. but washington deserves way more respect than theyre getting. what about...

    arizona is favored in that game? gimmie a break. couldnt care less about the seeds. oklahoma state is simply a better team than arizona. with you there

    sunday ncaa tournament: round two ....

    thanks smitty. fully expecting michigan state to take out duke in the next round. im not an anti-duke person, just really like the spartans to win that region. and btw - i had msu in that wisky game earlier this year. one of the truly ridiculous 'final minute folds' youll see.

    sunday ncaa tournament: round two ....

    nch: smitty put it very succintly and really took the words out of my mouth. its not that i dont think vermont is capable of playing with the same intensity as they did friday. but its more about the way the game was won. very emotional, up and down game then went down to the final possession...

    sunday ncaa tournament: round two ....

    split on saturday. lost money though with more on cincy than milwaukee. have seen a couple other uwm threads floating around. bottom line is that theyre absolutely legit. its unfortunate they had to deal with the stigma of playing in a down horizon league this year. but as ive told many friends...

    ncaa saturday: round two ......

    yeah really. when i saw the brackets come out, thats one of the first things i thought of. amazing how kentucky and utah are always placed in the same region every damn year. hopin that streak ends today. but good point, lol.

    ROUND 2 --- LETS ROLL

    love the play vyrus. was pulling for you on the lafayette moneyline. the game was there for the taking. just didnt make the necessary plays in the final 3:00. but that cover was never in doubt. no way in hell that team deserved to be double digit dogs with all the talent theyve got. catch you...

    ncaa saturday: round two ......

    im almost 100% positive that oklahoma was a 3.5 or 4 point chalk against kent state in the 1st round that year, but would have to defer to sun tzu or dr.freeze because they probably recall the # better than i would. i know 100% for sure that kent wasnt favored but the number was relatively low...

    Saturday/Sunday Tourney Picks

    best of luck falcon! can certainly respect the logic of those playing boston college. not playing uwm for as much as i did in the 1st round, as i think cincy is a better play later on. only part i really dont agree on (and am surprised we dont) is the physicality of the horizon league. obviously...
