Why did Missouri fans storm the floor?

You guys are already ranked!!
Kansas is (was) only ranked 16th in the nation!
Great game to watch and a heckuva 2nd half performance by the Tigers, but act like you’ve been there before. Just because it’s the Border Showdown doesn’t mean you go all out like you’ve just beaten the #1 team in the nation.
STAT of the GAME
Mizzou scored 16 in the 1st half.
Honorable Mention
83% free throw shooter Sherron Collins went 1-4 from the stripe.
29 Kansas turnovers, many of them caused by the swarming press of Mizzou.

Stat of the Day – Dayton goes 0-24 from three point land and still wins

Stat of the Day – Dayton goes 0-24 from three point land and still wins

And in the process Dayton broke a 13-year-old record for futility set by Canisius, which went 0-22 against St. Bonaventure on Jan. 21, 1995.
Dayton edged Auburn 60-59 in overtime in the Chicago Invitational Challenge at the Sears Center in Hoffman Estates, Ill. on Friday. The Flyers are underfeated at 5-0.
At least Auburn hit seven three-pointers. The Tigers went 7-for-31, but at least they hit seven three-pointers.
But I’m sure Auburn would trade those in for the win. The loss dropped the Tigers to 3-2.

National championship game – as it happens

As Kansas and Memphis square off for the National Championship, what better way to watch the game than to do a running commentary…
Before I start, I promised my pick, and that is Memphis. Even though Kansas looked incredible against North Carolina, I like how Memphis is rolling right now.
Of course, I’m forced to listen to Billy Packer and Jim Nantz once again – man, do I hate listening to both of them.
First Half
- Memphis darts out to a quick 9-3 lead after the first 4 minutes. Play is a bit helter-skelter right now, especially on Kansas’ part. Two early turnovers …read more

Games to watch this week – February 20th

No matter what sports you follow, you should always want to see the best teams and/or players competing against one another. #1 vs. #2.
It appears that college basketball fans are going to get their wish, as long as Tulane and Auburn don’t spoil the party tonight.
#1 Memphis versus #2 Tennessee on Saturday headlines the must-see games this week in college basketball:
Tonight: #3 North Carolina at North Carolina State – it is always a war when these two in-state rivals hook up on the basketball court.
Saturday February 23rd – #2 Tennessee at #1 Memphis – Memphis nearly lost to UAB …read more

Good injury news for Clemson’s Mays

Good injury news for Clemson’s Mays

It is never good news when a player goes down with an injury, but Clemson basketball fans were happy with the news on star forward James Mays’ injury.
Originally, it was feared that Mays had fractured his hip, but it turns out that it is only sprained. Instead of being out 4-6 weeks, Mays could be back on the court sometime in mid December.
Mays is averaging 15.5 points and 7.3 rebounds for the 18th ranked Tigers who are 6-0 this season. The Tigers will desperately need Mays’ inside presence and scoring as they enter conference play.

UConn vs. Memphis…as it happens

UConn and Memphis will be squaring off in the championship game of the 2K Sports College Hoops Classic at MSG this evening, and I wanted to do a running commentary of the game. I want to see if Derrick Rose is the real deal, and if Memphis can challenge for the national title this season.
UConn coach Jim Calhoun just said that Memphis is the most athletic team in the country. Memphis coach John Calipari called the Tigers offense “Princeton on steroids”…they are always attacking the basket, always pushing the ball, lots of motion. The Huskies are going to have their …read more
