tOfficial B1G basketball thread.

The best thing Coach Izzo did was not take that Cavs job when it was offered to him. And their pigskin program...as long as they aren't playing the Buckeyes I always root for them.

I'm with you. I like MSU basketball as long as they are not playing us. Izzo gets the best out of his players. I have a tough time betting against them.

I think the B1G will represent well in this tournament. I have Wisky as one of my Final Four teams. I think Wisky can take down Kentucky.

On another note: I'm on the UB Bulls bandwagon today. Twelve seed is due to take down a five. Sgt get your vcash in before it's too late.

I put my vcash on WV, think they will win but the 4.5 spread worries me

Ohio State is 2-0 in the series vs. Arizona. The Buckeyes beat UA 90-47 in 1971 in Los Angeles. They beat UA 73-70 in the 2013 NCAA West Regional semifinals, also in Los Angeles.

MSU looks like they have this one sewn up.

Well...maybe i spoke too soon. MSU pulling a Baylor right now. UGA within 1 possession with 20 sec left.

Spoke a little too soon as it seems no one can keep a lead this year but now it's all but over

Yeah, i flipped over to the Buffalo game for a sec and next thing i knew the MSU game got really close.

It should be one of the better games in the Tourney, but I'll take Zona by 5. They're just too strong and athletic. I've got them in the Final Four and taking down UK in 4/6 brackets.

 

[Tharvot]

Good lord, this buffalo - WVU game is disgusting to watch. Just witnessed the Buffalo PG lose the ball for no reason at all, wvu failed on a fast break, then buffalo raced up the court and promptly lost the handle on the ball again.

Really bad basketball...how'd i get talked into taking Buffalo?

 

[SpartyNash13]

This MSU team has taken about 3 years off of my lifespan and is why I drink heavily

Yeah, even if we can keep it close, I think they'll probably wear us down... Williams and McDonalds will foul out halfway through the 2nd half and that will be it.

Only hope is some players not named Russell step up and hit big shots. Man I miss Diebler who could drain 3's all day.

This would be where Loving would step in and help out, but that suspension really messed w/his mind.

Big B1G Weekend...three #7's going against three #2's, ugh...I fear that only one will survive...Terps & Bucky roll.

#7 OSU vs #2 Arizona
#7 MSU vs #2 Virginia
#7 IOWA vs #2 Gonzaga
#4 MARYLAND vs #5 West Virginia
#1 WISCONSIN vs #8 Oregon

They have a quality big man in Hammonds. Can't see Cincy having anybody to match up with him. They are pretty good defensively, but they go through stretches where they can't hit anything. I would expect the first team to 50 to win. If I had to guess I'd say Purdue will win, but I have no clue. Both of these teams are rather mediocre, and with the American being so bad, it's hard to evaluate how battle tested Cincy is.

In fact if I remember correctly, I can make fun you because they only got two bids.

Well, those big guys were big. They also suck, though.

This game isn't close if Ellis doesn't go full retard and get ejected.

The game wouldn't have been close the other way also if Purdue had made their freaking free throws..

They made a higher percentage than UC. Fact.

Some much for that theory.

I guess I was talking about the last couple minutes of the game when Purdue had the lead. The game should have been decided by half a dozen points or more.
