Running 2022-23 NCAA Basketball Thread

The University of Detroit's (sorry, not Detroit Mercy, what an abomination) Antoine Davis set the Horizon League career points record last night against Fort Wayne. He is Mike Davis's (Indiana) child, and the older Davis is the Titans head coach.

Hopefully this one goes to class, unlike his big brother at UAB.

 

I believe he's already graduated. I'd like to think the Society of Jesus takes this "education thing" seriously.

 

We would get letters every year
One year it was UDM
Then it was U-D
They never can make up their minds

 

After watching Indiana dismantle UNC, I'd hate to catch the Hoosiers in a tournament. That defense is tough.

 

Will UNC go from No. 1 to unranked in two weeks? They head to Blacksburg for a Sunday game with my Hokies in what promises to be a madhouse since the students are still in town. Caught a nice break from the ACC schedule makers there.

 

The rush to cram conference games in before January is starting to create bowl game conflicts. Missouri supposedly doesn’t want a potential Liberty Bowl matchup with Kansas because they are hosting Kentucky in the SEC hoops opener at the same time. (Meanwhile the Cats are worried that their standing Music City Bowl reservation would conflict with the rivalry game against Louisville, even though that’s going to be more like a snuff film.)

 

The more league games you have to play, the more likely this conflict becomes. And when the playoff expands, it could get really odd.

 

Carolina might not be Louisville bad but it again looks like hot buttered ass.

 

They deserve years of ineptitude.

 

I am not saddened when bad things happen to Loserville.

 

Louisville hosts Florida A&M on Dec. 17 in what might be its only chance at a non-conference win this season. Their other remaining games are Western Kentucky, Lipscomb and at UK.
