Bustin' shots

We can think of a couple of schools who need those shirts


So college football has their infamous make plays rant. And we have our "make shots" thing. As if that is not what they are trying to do:

Fan: What are you doing?! C'mon, we're losing! Make shots!!
Player: You know, you're absolutely right. I don't know what I was doing out there! I need to make those baskets!

Le sigh

Oh, c'mon George Mason. Well, we've got our first award for the season.

For you Patriots, leading 6th rank Villanova until the final minute of the game whereby you had an epic collapse of judgment. You get the Always Be Closing award.


Where was Blake during that collapse...

Chick fight of the night

Dayton vs. Georgia Tech
Thursday, January 19th @ 11:30 am EST


The clip of course is not the actual game, but merely an interpretation of it. This is one of those games that will be highly entertaining to watch but really won't mean much in the grand scheme of things. Both teams will be out of the top 25 by the end of January and NIT bound come March. Doot doot.

Your Wednesday Moment of Zen

March To Madness presents... Thirsty?

5 things we learned

1) Kansas, Michigan State and Kentucky won their games against unranked opponents by a combined total of 8 points. Although it is not time to panic, this season is going to be a wild one with lots of changes in the top 5 spots.
2) SDSU is who we thought they were.
3) The SEC are who we thought they were.
4) ESPN might be on to something with that 24 hours of basketball. Each year we say "Ain't gonna do it," and each year we succumb to it nonetheless. So sleepy...
5) This is NOT a rebuilding year for Memphis.

And why?

Our theme music:




So we ended up watching the SDSU/St. Mary's fiasco game. The part of this horsewhipping that made us laugh (in that frustrated sort of cackle that happens when you are shocked and angry) was this graphic:



We were beaten by 22 points by an unranked team. And we told you so. Hope the rest of you enjoyed ESPN's 24 hours of basketball. The season has officially started.

Kentucky's weapon

All we can say is John motherfucking Wall. With Kentucky tied with Miami of Ohio and only 0.5 seconds left, Mr. Wall just calmly takes the ball down the length of the court and shoots the game winning 2.

Amazing.

Here is the scene from the nosebleed section:
