College basketball picked the wrong night to start playing. Could positively not give a shit. Might just watch the Duke-Kentucky game tomorrow.

Get out of my head.
On the one hand, Dookie. On the other, Kentucky.
Can't they both lose?

They probably will in March.
Watching the game now. One thing sure hasn't changed, DeLaurier can't fucking play without fouling (3 fouls in 4 minutes so far).
He backtracked a little and said Zion might start over him, but not Juwan or Webber.
I'll just say I'll admire that he didn't throw Jimmy King or Ray Jackson under the bus.

Due to standout guard Nick Emery's involvement with boosters, BYU must now vacate 47 wins and forfeit a scholarship, the NCAA's committee on infractions announced Friday.
Poor diehard
The punishment was complete bullshit, but i'd expect nothing less tbh. Self reporting might go away forever.

That Army game was lackluster until they opened it up in the last 10 minutes. It was 67-61 in the second half before they ended the game by outscoring them 27-11.
This game, they came out much stronger, or maybe Eastern Michigan isn't all that good (though, according to the broadcast, they're picked to win the western division of the MAC). 48-13 at the half, pushed the lead out into the 40s really quickly in the second and then sort of coasted home with bench players getting lots of minutes. Hell, Cam Reddish only played 12 minutes in the game due to a
Next up is Maui, and if it goes chalk, they'll play Gonzaga in the final.

Hell, Cam Reddish only played 12 minutes in the game due to ageneralgroin soreness. Barrett played 25, Jack White 22, then Zion and a few others at 21.

They ran UK like they were an NIT team

Coach K wasn't going to have them up for a service academy, his alma mater, on Veteran's Day? Not buying it. What I can buy is that it was a let down game because all the energy of the opener.
In all honesty, though, the first half tonight is close to my entirely unreasonable standard when watching Duke play. In that I am literally unsatisfied as I'm watching unless they score every time down the floor and stop the other team every time. And I do mean every single time. It's unreasonable and I know it as I'm watching it. And yet that's what I want to see. If they ever pulled off like a 73-0 half, I'd be like, "well, yeah, that's what you're supposed to do. Do it again next game."

Duke got the win, but Auburn was closer than they should have been, ultimately losing by 6. RJ Barrett needs to be a bit more selective with his shot, he hasn't been particularly efficient so far, and today had 18 points on 20 shots. Duke as a whole was just 28% from 3 (7-25).
On the plus side, Reddish did alright despite foul trouble (3 in the first half), and Marques Bolden was a beast as a rim protector (7 blocks).

By Adam Go To PostBut Randolph / Haspha / Jay Williams
Lose to a mid-major, brehs.
Been saying Duke ain't shit.
Just finished watching the game on DVR. I'm 50/50 on RJ Barrett. I like it when he's in transition going to the hole, but I wish he would stop shooting otherwise. He forces it too much. (Don't really want him to stop shooting, but definitely stop forcing it.) Volume shooter.
13-26 vs. Kentucky.
9-19 vs. Army
8-21 vs. E. Mich
5-14 vs. Sen Dog St
7-20 vs. Auburn
9-25 vs. Gonzaga
Bruh.
I think Tre Jones is going to end up being my favorite player on this team, much like his older brother Tyus.
By diehard Go To PostI mean Gonzaga might be the better team its not shockingNot really... they actually have played together for 2 or 3 years
