Branham is a solid shooter and perhaps he figured they'd key on Liddell? I see that Branham was on fire from three range tonight.

Me, to kids: we are rooting for Rutgers. It helps the Illini
Kids, to me: you love the Illini, you love the Illini!
Yes, yes I do

SMU up 3 over Houston 24 seconds
It's crazy with these guys at home. They win on a half-court shot against Purdue. Then they get FT's to win on a ridiculous ref call on Keegan Murray of Iowa with 1.5 secs left. Then they blow out MSU. Then they go on a 12-0 run at the end of the game to beat OSU, who hasn't lost a dumb game all year.
They weren't even considered a bubble team because of their nonconference record, but now ....

Most of the night ,yes.....but Liddell is their best player and using a freshman over EJ is just puzzling........EJ down low gets a bucket or gets fouled most of the time........

OTOH, MD blew them out at the RAC, up by 20 in the first half and cruising comfortably to victory just two weeks ago. Baker was healthy but their D just couldn't contain Ayala and Russell on the perimeter. Since the 2nd half of the NW game in Evanston, though, gotta like the way they've played.

Sampson and Pearl go down on consecutive days (and Alford). Takes a little bit of the sting out of the Illini loss.
That's just it. They only get up for the top teams at home. I REALLY can't stand teams like that.

Don’t forget They beat Purdue too!
Ramblers struggling against Bradley, about 4 mins left down 3
Didn't know we were ever interested. Under his "leadership", they played some of the worst possession ball with the lead that I have witnessed this year when they blew the game against NC State in the Big Ten-ACC Challenge. Imagine having to root for Brad Davison in the last game of the challenge against Georgia Tech for the Big Ten to win the challenge.

Loyola loses again. I think their chances of getting an at-large bid are sailing away.

TxT goes down in Norman to Okla. Porter Moser pulled off a big one
They looked atrocious
I just heard several days ago that they are in even if they don't win their tourney. They lost one guy overseas to the pros from last year, but everyone else is back. 4 seniors and 4 grad students on the team. Wouldn't hurt my feelings if they didn't make the tourney, though.
Nebraska finally wins one.
