2017-18 Men's Basketball Thread

[full house frog]

I believe that rematch rules in the first round have been eased or changed all together. I will research to find out but I think it’s been changed.

 

[full house frog]

After doing research and asking several people the committee usually does everything they can to not have a rematch but there is no rule against it. Happened with SMU and USC rematch recently.

St. Bonaventure really wouldnt be one of those teams you would want to see as an 11 or 12 seed. They lost games when Jaylen Adams was hurt or not 100% but since he has been healthy they have been on a roll. They have 2 NBA caliber guards and would be a lot better than a typical team seeded at 11.

We got them without Jaylen Adams and still had a tough game with them.

Big 12 schedule:
Kansas > Texas
Texas Tech > West Virginia
Oklahoma State = Iowa State
OU > Baylor

 

[KCFrog]

Let's just keep on winning so maybe we get up on the 5 line.

Worry about beating K-State tomorrow first. Then go from there.

West V favored by 7 at home

 

[f_399]

Wonder if tech will do this to end the season. Rest some banged up players for the tournament.

 

[PurplFrawg]

Tech getting pantsed by WVU in Morgantown so far. 14-0

 

[Horned Toad]

Probably resting up for Saturday afternoon. No way they want to split the season series with TCU at home.

 

[Portland Frog]

Watching KU vs UT. Let’s hope 2018/19 is the year their run at consecutive conference titles ends.

 

[FrogLifeYo]

UT has very little interest without Bamba ..

 

[Portland Frog]

UT has very little interest without Bamba ..

Yep. And given the emotion of senior night at home for KU it would be a shock if UT got the W.

 

[Portland Frog]

TT getting worked by WV half way through first half.

 

[FrogLifeYo]

in the last 2:00 Min TX has fallen for an easy Jr high inbound play and had a backcourt violation...Shaka likely to be CDC’s first firing

Do you not believe in 7 or 10 seeds?

 

[Portland Frog]

The rich get richer. Duke has 4 starting *freshman* and will still contend for a national title in 2018. Their incoming recruiting class for next season? They have the top 3 players ranked in the ESPN national top 100. All three of them. Good grief.

What was the recruit’s name who chose Duke over the frogs two years ago? He rarely gets any playing time this season for the Blue Devils.

Edit: Bolden is the player with Duke.

 

[Prince of Purpoole]

Wow very little resistance from UT at this point.

 

[Portland Frog]

WV up 18 on TT with 7+ to play.

Lol my bad I don’t know how I forgot to type those in. I have it all written down so when I’m back home I’ll edit the post and add those in


Edit: went back and edited the original post but I’ll post it here again. Let me know what you think just did it for fun. I based it on current records didn’t project. I also think I probably gave a lot of the mid majors better seeds than the actual committee will
