Tuesday Night NCAA BBall Open Thread
MSU vs UK about to start the second half and Kansas and Duke to follow.
Figured we should have an open thread for these games.

Down goes Frazier!
Couldn't have happened to a group of more highly touted young men. Which I just love to see.
Go B1G. Can't wait to play State (In AA... a little nervous about heading up to Lansing)

It sure seems like there was a lot of fouls in that game
November 12th, 2013 at 10:05 PM ^
Glad to see MSU win one for the B1G. They will be very tough this year...

Jalen wants "competitive jealousy" to happen so badly.

Cal did the right thing, and they got the stop...just didn't get the rebound.
November 12th, 2013 at 10:08 PM ^
Not gonna lie, MSU looks really scary.

Calipari made the right call in my mind. They should have stopped MSU, and 5 seconds is enough time to move the ball down and make a play or call a TO. In addition, if you foul there you are fouling a good FT shooting team and essentially asking your players to make threes. UK was shooting 22% on threes, which included numerous open threes. I wouldn't have banked on the threes.

It was the right move...just have to get a stop, and when you do, you have to get the rebound. They did part 1, but not part 2. Can't fault the coach on that one.
Beilein actually made a MUCH riskier choice not to foul vs. KU late in the sweet 16 game and J-Mo made the underrated play of the game on the stop before "The Shot."

Go Kansas. Hate Duke.

Just going off the eye test, which in basketball is a lot more predictable than football (I saw Michigan as a Elite 8/Final Four team at this point last year)...but way more, teams, upsets, etc. So it's a pointless exercise, but I need something to do while watching these games...so why now?
I'll give it a shot...
1. MSU
2. Duke
-----------------------------------Championship 2
3. Kentucky
4. Louisville
-----------------------------------Final Four
5. Syracuse
6. VCU
7. Wichita St.
8. Florida
-----------------------------------Elite 8
9. Creighton
10. Ohio St.
11. Michgan
12. Kansas
13. Harvard
14. Arizona
15. Marquette
16. Oklahoma St.
-----------------------------------Sweet 16
Wisconsin and Maryland are my two teams that I wanted to include, but didn't.

This is slightly OT but has been driving me crazy for months. There is this one song that is played at Crisler that I like but have no idea what it is. It is purely a beat, last season they would play it when introducing the starting lineup. This year I have heard a few bits and pieces of it, but since it has no lyrics I have had trouble finding it. Does anyone know the song I am referring to?
November 12th, 2013 at 11:26 PM ^
Are they playing during this game? If so, I can check on my DVR...
November 12th, 2013 at 11:29 PM ^
...this?
Cause this is awful.
However, Michigan plays "We Ready" by Archie Eversole all the time...even this year they do it.

No, it was after the video intro. It was played when the lights would go dim and the PA guy would say "A 6-6 Sophomore..." and this song would be on in the background.

I never thought he was classy. He ran it up on us every chance he had.
November 13th, 2013 at 9:14 AM ^
Are you kidding me? This is a joke, right?
November 13th, 2013 at 9:31 AM ^
Nothing is real here anymore.
