2024-25 College Basketball Thread

Game Starts on Another Channel should be the free space. Unless it’s the first game of the day on a network, the tip-off will be overlapped by the preceding game.

 

Your honor, my client cannot be held responsible for any toxic posts during Bama-Auburn basketball.

 

Bruce Pearl financed a waterbed in a past life.

 

Mizzou wins 87-74nat Georgia, and it wasn't close after the Tigers took control in the second half. That's a deep, talented team the just earned its 19th victory this season.

Two seasons ago was a very fun one as a Mizzou fan. This season has been the most fun in a long, long time.

Kim English will not be coming back to be Mizzou's coach.

 

That's the biggest win of all.

 

Burns, I don't know if you're connected to Mizzou, but there was an alum push to get English hired before Gates got the job. Lots of pining for the guy who was beloved — truly — as a player. I think Kim will become a very good coach in time, but Gates is the real deal for Mizzou; I'm a fan.

 

Muck Fizzou.

 

Alabama with a fools gold run to tie it in the second half but then Auburn put it right back to the nine-point final margin it deserved to be based on the entirety of play.

There has to be an intervention for Mark Sears. Either move him to off-guard or straight up give his minutes to LaBaron Philon. Eighteen points but a plus/minus efficiency rating of only +3 because he had enough bricks for Trump’s stupid wall. Last year was the outlier. So either he can cut out the hero ball or he can sit it out. This has been building for weeks.

 

Well, there's that.

 

Joey Brackets referred to this as a “bad loss” for Georgia. A remarkably dumb comment.

 

That implies he had any credibility in the first place.

 

It is in the sense that they can’t afford to give anything else away, much less a home opportunity.

Unless one of Texas, Georgia or Arkansas has a strong finishing kick, pencil the SEC in for 10 bids.
