Day 1 games

[the nail at the foul line]

The Zags will give Houston all they can handle.

First half isn't even half over and already.

And it is likely accurate.

 

[gharding07]

BYU is my major dark horse team. Good start.

 

[DC407]

Glad. Maybe the league will adapt next year. Real basketball, less rugby and less injuries with a better chance in March.

Lol, UGA was turnover prone all season long. It's why they lost so many games in SEC play. Let's not make it seem like the refs have anything to do with their performance.

 

[UKWildcats1987]

UL getting slaughtered aside, from a competitive standpoint these first 8 games have been atrocious so far

 

[Lempface]

Don't look now y'all, Clemson about to break 30!

 

[zannmann]

Here come the refs for Clemson. They called three fouls against McNeese in one possession.

 

[CastleRubric]

UGA off to a terrible start.

21-3

3rd quarter
UGA running game stymied

 

[Someguywhodoesntlikeyou]

Georgia, Texas and Oklahoma didn’t really deserve to be in

 

[Jazzycat]

Pretty pitiful showing from UGA…I hope that UK can shoot well and defend because these teams are all playing at a pretty high level - minus Clemson..

 

[fatguy87]

Gonzaga is dangerous if on. People are gonna judge the sec based on 11th place and 14th place teams losing to the 2nd or 5th place teams in other conferences.

Let's see what auburn, Florida, Bama, tn, UK and a and m do. Throw in Missouri and ole miss too.

Georgia, Texas, Oklahoma and Vanderbilt were/are all underdogs.

The SEC is expected to maybe get 1 win out of those.

Auburn only winning by 20 or so is more damning than any single other individual SEC performance.

 

[yes_takeaside]

Seems like that McNeese guy on the runout pick up his dribble and put it right back down.

Refs getting into now

 

[MbergCat]

Georgia, even if expected to lose, is embarrassing the SEC right now. How tf did we lose to them?

 

[darkshadesofblue]

Well my bracket is effed right out of the gate. Had Clemson going far but was also on the fence about them losing to McNeese. Should’ve went with my gut

 

[UKWildcats1987]

Georgia, Texas and Oklahoma didn’t really deserve to be in

Then who did? They were more deserving than unc or SD st or iu or WVU.

 

[HenryMuto]

51-29 !!!!!!!!

 

[the nail at the foul line]

9 minutes first half Zags 30

8 minutes 2nd half Clemson 29

 

[bbncal02]

i guess i wasn’t the only person that had high point beating purdue.

a yeah. I picked that in my fun home bracket. I’m having an awful day. This is why I don’t do pools anymore.

 

[drew_ukfan]

I did pick McNeese

 

[bbncal02]

51-29 !!!!!!!!

Yeah this is actually really bad for the Day 1 matchups. Committee didn’t do good. These are all blowouts. Yawn city. But hey at least Bubba got his 100k.

 

[fatguy87]

BYU might be a sexy preseason pick.

They can return a solid core of Saunders/Keita/Hall. Maybe Denim doesn't go pro.

They are bringing in Dynbasta and a top 30-ish center recruit in Staton.

Add an impact transfer or two and they are primed for a pretty darn good season.

 

[bbncal02]

UL getting slaughtered aside, from a competitive standpoint these first 8 games have been atrocious so far

Yeah. No joke. Just checking the scores at work and I’m like “Ewww”.


ACC is getting slaughtered. No surprise there

More reason for us to win too. We can’t let BYU win and us go home.

 

[JFCats22]

UGA showing some life

 

[ukwazoo]

Lol at #4 & #11 on Clemson. Go home

 

[DC407]

Lol, yep. It's not like there were other good choices.

 

[fatguy87]

UGA showing some life

I'm rooting for them to at least make it respectable. I'd like the game to be somewhat entertaining.

 

[ImTheVillageIdiot]

I did pick McNeese

Me too. Picked Gonzaga to elite 8 as well. Feeling like that could happen

 

[WeWant9]

I had an E8 rematch in my bracket. Told the zaga fan I was chatting with in Seattle, “see you in the tournament.”

I didn’t pick UK to make the Elite 8 in line though. I had Tennessee. I’m always afraid to pick the Cats far because I feel like a jinx

 

[HenryMuto]

Shades of the end of Kentucky/Oklahoma

Clemson cut it from 22 to 13 in 2 mins

I can never not pick the Cats, even when I know it won’t happen lol

 

[yes_takeaside]

Wade pulling a Cal. Taking the air out of the ball

 

[crawfords corner]

UGA coming back

 

[runt#69]

Clemson ....ugh a slight beginning to kill the ole brackets' with that stinker.

 

[yes_takeaside]

The ticky tacks called by the female ref are ridiculous

FTs keeping Clemson alive

 

[HenryMuto]

Everything has froze for me on my TV for all games WTF

 

[65pacecar]

Probably good the Clemson coach signed his contract extension before this game today.

 

[ukwazoo]

Everything has froze for me on my TV for all games WTF

It's all blowouts right now anyway. Clemson has cut it to like 10 with 3 mins left, but mcneese shooting ft

 

[gharding07]

BYU FLEXIN

 

[UKcats1988]

Demin for BYU has so much potential, big fan of his game and what he could turn into
