3/19 Games

[Se Il Illini]

Both Tenessee and Texas have post players who can make the 10-12 foot jump shot. I am seeing a lot of mid range jump shots falling today. Michigan State is exhibiting the toughness and the grit required to win in March.

Michigan State not a blue blood.

Miami’s guards overwhelming IU early

 

[OrangeAndBlueBlooded]

IU losing composure, showing their frustration with each other.

 

[BackThatPassUp]

Regardless of what happens, it hurts knowing we have at least 3 wins over sweet 16 teams this year.

 

[WWWWRocU]

Isn't Baylor being a bit undisciplined at the end of there game relative to trying to whittle down the lead? No offensive cohesion or plan.

 

[Illini8420]

Miami is showing that guard play wins games. Gimme 2 or 3 skilled guards who can dribble and shoot rather than any number of talented bigs and wings at the college level.

TIL Wisconsin has more conference titles than us.

 

[Goillinikobd]

FDU. FAU, I’m exhausted just watching.

must see tv

 

[Illini8420]

FDU is trying to cook the FAU big man every possession. Smart.

Depends on your age, I guess. To some, Cincinnati and C.C.N.Y. are blue bloods.

14 of them before 1950.

Not really. A blue blood is a blue blood. That doesn't change because of age. If MSU is a blue blood so is Louisville, UConn, Villanova, NC St. There's a core group Duke, North Carolina, Kansas, Kentucky, Indiana, and UCLA. 2 titles and 10 Final Fours, most of them since 99 is not a blue blood.

That's when our Nattys were, so I guess it evens out.

But then exclude Duke because they didn’t begin their rise until 1986. They’re New Money compared to the others.

I'd say Indiana is most definitely not a blue blood at this point. What major success have they had in the last 15+ years?

 

[Illini8420]

Hey maybe throw some NIL money at Roberts from FDU he’s a baller

 

[GoodePodzMelendez]

This FDU/FAU is a basketball clinic. Roberts and Davis are complete players.

 

[Goillinikobd]

K State and FDU.,What is it with 5’ 8” point guards?

 

[IlliniFaninHoosierLand]

Why is Andrew Catalon yelling?

Don't really consider his call yelling. This is pretty much on par with how he normally calls games. Granted when he's calling NFL games, it's usually a bad game involving the Texans and/or Jaguars.

 

[Scoregasm]

I like number 11and 2 on FDU.

 

[Rudd21]

My new FF picks are Alabama, Kansas State, Houston, UConn. Not quite the best for TV ratings methinks

 

[RabidDawgClassic]

And thus my point about depending how old you are. To older folks, IU is a blue bloods. To young folks, Michigan State meets that criteria. To my grandpa, C.C.N.Y or even Ohio State fits that bill.

 

[IlliniFaninHoosierLand]

FAU over FDU in a battle of F_U schools.

 

[IllinoisssssssVarsity]

Well I know which FAU player is gonna be running bleachers next week
