    2011-2012 Season Thread

    Figured I'd start this up now. Teams are starting to have some of their exhibition games.

    Didn't have a general thread for all of college ball last year, maybe this will bring a little more life to this section.

    Post all of your predictions, analyses, scores, rants, etc. of the upcoming season in here.

    Ready for another great season of college basketball!!!

    Carolina won 100-58 last night against UNC-Pembroke.

    Duke plays last year's division 2 National Champs and D2 preseason #1 Bellarmine(?) tonight. 2nd year in a row we have played the previous years D2 champ.

    Re: 2011-2012 Season Thread

    Duke won 87-62 last Saturday night. As usual Coach K didn't try to win by as much as possible and played a bunch of guys in a bunch of combinations. That combined with a lot of youth of the team means only winning by 15. Plus we were playing the best D2 team there is.

    Duke's 2nd exhibition is tomorrow night against Shaw.

    Anyone else can add info about exhibitions if they please. I never know a lot about the exhibitions other than Duke and UNC.

    Well the season starts tonight, but the only big time teams that play before Friday are Arizona, St. Johns, and Texas A&M.

    The season starts Friday for most teams.

    Duke beat Belmont by 1 last night. 77-76 I think. Belmont is a good team, probably top 40 I would think. Didn't think it would be that close though.

    We play again today and Coach K can tie the record for most wins at 902 with a W.

    Pitt won yet again today, but they played sloppy for the last ten minutes of the first half. We should have blown them out...

    UK played Marist in their regular season opener and won big, they started slow but picked it up in the second half. On Tuesday they play Kansas which should be a good game. From what I have seen Michael Kidd-Gilchrist is going to be a big time player, so watch out for him.

    Duke-Michigan St. Tuesday night in Champions Classic at Cameron North aka Madison Square Garden. Coach K passes his old coach Bob Knight for most all time wins if we win. 903.

    Is it bad that I kinda hope we lose so that K can break the record at home?

    Why do the Pitt students(assuming) wear shirts that say 'zoo' on them?

    ACC still undefeated.

    It's the nickname of Oakland, the neighborhood that the school is in....

    Un-fucking-believable, Pitt loses to some no name school tonight. So fucking mad. How the Hell does Pitt lose to some team like this? Even MORE sloppy play. Even MORE turnovers. Even MORE "just" thrown up shots. How the Hell does this team think they're going to go anywhere with the sloppy play so far this season. I hope they get out of this slump, they barely won against Ryder than lose to some no fucking name school. Un-fucking-believable. Just unbelievable. Just another thing to add to the shit list of a horrible sports year.

    I can't wait until the UK v UNC game on Saturday. That is going to be a great game but I am a little nervous about my Cats, they have significantly less experience than UNC and the Heels will be trying to prove something after that loss.

    I love this game every year. One of them has to lose.

    I hated the game in last year's NCAA Tournament though, because one of them had to win....

    Bench-clearing melee halts end of Xavier's rout of Cincinnati

    CINCINNATI -- Eighth-ranked Xavier defeated crosstown rival Cincinnati 76-53 in a game that was called with 9.4 seconds left when the teams got into a brawl.

    The game was stopped after words led to shoving and both benches cleared. Coaches from both teams had to pull their players away.

    Mark Lyons scored 19 points, and Tu Holloway led a 12-point run in the first half for Xavier.

    Can't expect much out of anything from Cincinnati.

    From the replay it looks like both teams, and especially Cincinnati, will be lucky to have many players left their next games...

    Duke plays again tomorrow night.

    Carolina looks good.

    Pitt has lost 2 in a row.

    Jim Calhoun is serving his completely comical 3 game suspension for being a CHEATER

    Re: 2011-2012 Season Thread

    Duke lost to Temple last night.

    Coach K did not have a good game plan and did not make adjustments. He made adjustments on offense, but with like 4 minutes left and it was too late. Prob the worst game I remember him coaching.

    Temple kept driving past our guards and making all their shots/ making great passes when our bigs stepped up. Should have at least tried a zone to limit the 1 on 1 penetration. But sometimes K is too arrogant to go to a zone. He is better than he used to be though, when I was a kid he NEVER went zone.

    Maybe its that we are too guard heavy minded, but we should have thrown it in to the big guys EVERY TIME. When we did Temple could not stop it. They had no one that could guard our 6'10" and 6'11" big guys.

    Temple also did a great job of stopping our fast break. Of course they made a very high percentage of their shots, so that helps.

    This Duke team has some work to do.
