NCAA 2018-19 Season Thread

They fired Matta just to bring in someone who can't even win games in Columbus

 

[New Jersey]

Seton Hall with a potentially season-saving win. Need to take this to Indy on Saturday.

Holtzmann is starting to disappoint after a great first year at OSU. But even more startling is seeing Archie Miller struggle at Indiana. They lost several in a row and went from ranked to garbage rather fast.

Now people are calling for his head.

They're sooooooo bad. Not watchable at this point.

Iowa beat Michigan by 15.

NC State...

A ranked team scored 24 points at home. Wtf.

I was about to post the ESPN article. That Hokie defense has Charlottesville nervous.

Crap that's a football score...

Are you kidding? Offenses are putting up more points than what NC State did in basketball.

Yeah I meant if you just saw a score reading:

Virginia Tech 47
NC State 24

Youd likely assume that was a football game...

That Hokie Defense couldn't defend UVA in Charlottesville.

Be curious to see if they play better at Blacksburg.

 

[John Price]

Been hard on Indiana not for personal reasons but because they were ranked and lost 7 straight. That's inexcusable. I expect more out of a coach like Archie Miller. Losing 7 straight at IU is not okay. That being said, they beat MSU so they are immune from wrath for now.

 

[Kyle McMahon]

So when was the last time a team scored 14 points in the first half of a game and then did WORSE in the second half?

 

[rangerssharks414]

Welp... down by 25 at home in a game when they were favored by 15...

 

[John Price]

Even Coach K didn't think Duke could pull off historic second-half comeback against Louisville

 

[rangerssharks414]

Liberty at Lipscomb for first place in the A-Sun! I think Lipscomb will win a game in the NCAAs if they make it.

(Yes, I'm probably the only one in the world watching this game.)

Edit: Liberty wins. Lipscomb won on Liberty's home floor earlier this season.

March is almost here!

 

[New Jersey]

Seton Hall have effectively pressed the reset button after last night's dismantling of Georgetown. Go Pirates.

 

[rangerssharks414]

In the "nobody gives a **** department" (except me), Furman and UNC Greensboro are in a tight game in the Socon.

Edit: Furman pulled away late and won by 10. Matt Rafferty had 26 and 10. Watch out for him in March should Furman make the dance.

When will OSU fans call for Holtzmann's head? They lost to 10-15 Illinois last night.

They got a 5 seed in the NCAAs last year, and this is only his second year. I'm sure they're disappointed, but he mainly is coaching guys from the Matta years.

osu is a football school

 

[rangerssharks414]

Dayton was down 22 in the second half. They have roared back to take the lead against a good VCU team.

Edit: VCU takes the lead with 6 seconds left and wins by one. What a game.

 

[rangerssharks414]

Huge win for the Pirates! (I watched the end of it. The defense was amazing down the stretch.)

@New Jersey

I’ll be attending each of the Pirates’ last five games of the regular season to do my part. If we win at home against Xavier and one of St. John’s or Georgetown away, we’ll be firmly in control of our own destiny.
