College Basketball Random Chatter 2012-2013 Season

    Since we are talking gambling...took home first place out of 97 people (and 1,540$) in a weekly nfl pickem. Pick any four games each week against the spread. Finished the year at 43-25. I was in fire all season. Amazingly, someone else tied me. Tiebreaker is MNF wins, also ats, and I hit 11/17 for the win. I'll never have a year that good in the nfl again, neary a 65% win rate. I'm actually mad I didn't put individual money on each game!!!

    Yeah I think 55% would be a profit so 65% is really good

    ^ Lol. That actually looks pretty cool in slow motion.

    ^Thugs.

    That's pretty cool, indeed. Is that a new dance craze? It's not the new gang style or whatever the hell, is it? Whatever it is, KU's players pulled it off.
  • reclegend22
    By "gang style" I mean that dance move that was made famous by that obese Chinese man recently. Gangstyle or something or another. Not really sure. Don't keep up with that stuff.

    Wish Creighton-Illinois State was televised tonight. Don't see it on my sports package. Would've like to have caught the second half (it's an 8 pm tip) after the Duke game finishes up.

    Hoping the Blue Jays turn my my luck around tonight.

    Florida State loses to Auburn. The Noles definitely were vastly overrated to start the year. Maybe the most overrated team.
  • reclegend22
    There is a God. Creighton wins. I about broke out into the "Dougie" when I read the ticker. I'm back.

    Good one between Nova and the Johnnies on ESPNU. Tie ball game with four seconds left.

    Purdue takes down Johnny Groce and Illinois

    Do you have ESPN3 access? Just caught this post now, but it was on there. Had it playing in the background as I was doing other computer stuff, so I couldn't really comment on the game much.

    Maybe the most overrated, but not most disappointing. I think Drexel and North Texas are running away with that title right now.

    Had a friend lose a lot of money on a three-game teaser involving Illinois at +5 and boy does he hate DJ Byrd. My guess is that if he was alone in a room tonight with DJ and a hacksaw, he'd cut all of DJ's limbs off and watch him bleed out. That floor slide rebound timeout play by Byrd to give Purdue two more shots at the free throw line and ultimately a seven-point win, well, that's what happens to people who gamble.

    Good game though.

    I do not, unfortunately. My internet provider not does carry it.
  • Azubuike24
    North Texas for sure. Amazing they have 9 losses already.

    Jacksonville State +7 at home vs Belmont tonight. Definitely a "fly under the radar" spread tonight.

    (3) 'Zona struggling at home w/ Colorado

    Colorado is no slouch.

    KU dropped em by 36, though.
  • SportsAndLady
    Fun game to watch..Zona still down 7, under 2 min
  • SportsAndLady
    Arizona just got hosed at home.
  • gorocks99
    Zona might still win...

    ...or not. Wow.
  • Mulva
    Wow that's close with the clock. Dirty shot.
  • SportsAndLady
