Dude was a goon Pitino sent into the game to instigate Grayson with cheapshots. Grayson getting one back in retaliation while get a foul on 3 was the best case scenario.

BF vs EA. Who will win? GAF.
Hopefully Springs is ok. I'd sit him until the NCAAs if it's just a tweak. Hopefully he can return as he's a senior. Would be a horrible way to end his playing career. Streaky shooter who will be missed if he can't go.
If Michigan's point guard loses the ball on a drive and pretends to be fouled for the third straight game there will be repercussions in photo form.

UCF destroyed Memphis earlier today by 30 points.

Going without Springs would be especially tough with how shallow the bench is. Hope he's at least back by next week.
So Tubby is still doing his, "the season is over after January," thing?

No need to post any proof. I'll fully admit that we are a team of floppers. Always have been under Beilein.

And Pitino is saying Springs may have a torn achillies...
Ugh, hate to see his season end like that and we're really gonna need him too. Damn.

Usually if you can see the avatar, it's not.
Anyone want to help me collaborate on a March Madness OT just in case?

Lol would be great for us to see USC's bubble burst.
Almost time for the March Madness thread

Looking pretty gassed. UNC gonna run us out of the gym next half.
Rest up for the tourney, fellas.

Time for Hurt(Or is it Hurd?), ironically, to get more playing time. Havent seen much of value from him. Gilbert I think will get more time. A better value. Big body small forward but turnover prone. Like Hurt, didnt play much in the BT season.
Less Konate. Konate usually makes 1 play a game. Today he did squat. I love Pitino yanking players after they fuck up. Sit on the bench and think about it.
Gophers arent done but McBrayer is gonna have to bring his A game every game.
Akeem Springs says his season and collegiate career is over. Will be interesting to see how they do without him on the court.

Gassed? More like playing unnecessary minutes for Giles and Golden, and no defense so they can save legs for the final 10 min.
It'll be a close game in the end. Ask any UNC fan.
If it's not then UNC wins both titles and we lose first weekend.

The only reason this is still within single digits is because we're draining 3s.

I'd rather see Vrank if Amile is out. Giles not going to be able to keep up.

Yeah.
I'm going to say heat of the moment, Kennard saw a hand and thought it was a teammate high fiving him.
If that was Grayson Allen, they would have thrown him out of the game.

Good call on your part. Was key to our comeback.

Harry Giles had 6 points, 7 boards, 4 blocks, and a steal in only 15 minutes against Carolina.
Unless Harry's people/Nike have worked some sort of deal with K to limit his minutes (which is honestly pretty possible), it's time to let him go.
Good things happen when he's on the court

Not done, but it's gonna be real tough to replace Springs' defense. There's a reason Gilbert and Hurt haven't been playing.
If they're forced to play Konate they'll be pretty much done though. Him and Curry being in together killed them against Wisconsin, Lynch must absolutely avoid foul trouble.

Stuff like this swings drastic. UNC can win 6 of next 8 if we draft a bad class.
I hope NW wins the B10 title.
Given two choice, which would you rather pick.
1. Guaranteed final four this year.
2. Guaranteed NCAA tournament appearances for the next 8 years .

Wisconsin is a decent team, so even if Northwestern loses today, team flies back to Evanston to enjoy Sunday at Welsh-Ryan before school tears it down for renovation.
Later option. Makes recruiting a lot easier.

Sounds like you shouldn't be watching any games then base on your track record. That been said, I never feel Schadenfreude for Kentucky teams like I for UNC, even though though Kentucky is supposedly enemy number 2.
Grover Cleveland

But since my post it's UK (-6). Maybe my powers were overstated.
I definitely think that UK fans have more disdain for Duke than Duke fans have for UK. Largely because of...that whole business in 1992.
The Turtles and Connecticut (while largely irrelevant, have a terrible habit of popping up and stealing national championships away) are ahead of Kentucky on my shitlist.
Speaking of the Turtles, Lunardi's latest bracket has Maryland as the 7 with Duke as the 2 in the East region. We could play the Traitors in the second round!

Great fight Gophers. Especially since you guys were down a starter and had almost no time to adjust.
Now go Wildcats.

Turtles fell off my shitlist after they left the ACC. I could not care less about them these days. Yes that even includes them taking in Sheed.
Calipari has definitely reinvigorated feelings about UK, but UNC still trumps all, with UConn considerably below, UK even further down, and then no one else, really.
Leaping ahead of UConn again in 2015 helped ease a lot of annoyance, I think. Not sure anything will fix '99 and '04.
A big "what if" is if UK had beaten Wisconsin. Regardless of who won that matchup.

Good game. Curry missed too many easy ones and Walton was solid from 3 and the charity stripe.
I think Wisconsin has turned a corner and are back to being good. Think they're gonna win and do some damage in the NCAAs.
Gophers should probably get a 5 seed, maybe a 6 at worst.
Still have no idea how Lynch didnt make a BT team. Dude has been an offensive jugernaut all year and the league's best defender.

Trying to read between lines of Dan Gavitt's answers on our set. I believe the fourth No. 1 seed will be Duke or the Pac 12 champ. UNC's a 2
Hahahahaha...hahahahahah...
If this happens. Can. You. Imagine. The. Salt.

In a blind resume comparison, we actually hold up pretty well against other teams in the running for 2 seeds tho. Especially against UNC, who by resume really has no business being a 1-seed like they were projected earlier and in some circles still are.

Groce is gone. Celebrate Illinois fans.
Thank you breh.
Same man. I'm supposed to hate Duke, but I was 2 when Laettner hit that shot. I don't really care.

Iowa isn't getting in after that Indiana loss. Don't know what EA is, but almost eveyone else has them out.

Fucking Northwestern couldn't even put up enough of a fight to keep Wiscy's starters on the floor the whole game.
I think our magic runs out tomorrow.
