College basketball 2009-10 running thread No. 1

Gumble starts off the halftime show with...um, a suicide joke. Really?

 

Man, once you get past the top four or five teams, it's just going to be a matter of who has shit itself the least lately.

 

Richmond and Xavier into OT in A-10 semis, an excellent game that is on CBS College network. Is that the best the A-10 can do?

 

congrats Purdue. You've doubled your halftime score in the first seven minutes of the second half.

 

I'll mail tape of this Gophers game the next time a college hoops purist tells me the NBA game sucks. I love college basketball and especially love this game as a Gophers fan, but this game is just one of many that is utterly unwatchable during the season, many of which happen during the supposed best time of the year. Of course, as a Minnesota fan, I wouldn't be surprised to see them somehow blow this.

 

All right, 48-22, it's probably safe.

 

For more support of smalltownguy's case about the more-than-occasionally disastrous art that is college basketball, I offer Georgia Tech - N.C. State. Horrible game. This has to be the weakest year for the ACC (and I mean in terms of excitement and good play, not just how strong the conference is in relation to others) in my memory. And I'm old.

 

I'm beginning to think nobody here watched that second SEC semifinal but me. :-\
Finals set for tomorrow around midday.

 

I'd rather watch biathlon than watch SEC basketball at any point. Sorry.

 

The first SEC semi may have been underviewed here, too.
Kentucky rolled past UT in that one.

Family and I are headed to see Spurs host Clippers.
Y'all keep it real.

 

Blitz is gone, but I at least did watch some of Kentucky's game. They looked fabulous, and if I hadn't seen the South Carolina game too....

 

Ah, the sideline magic that is Keith Dambrot....
