Wow BYU is gonna be in the bonus for a very long time.
Bama-BYU refs read this thread & went for massive tip in the other direction
Foul, three ball, offensive rebound. Foul, three ball, offensive rebound. Foul, three ball, offensive rebound.
Rinse and repeat in this game.
71-61 w/ 12:45 still to go is something
Do we need to move the 3 point line to the NBA line?
I was rooting against byu because I hate byu but then I had the thought that bama is just the new Carolina and now I think I just need to watch the other game.
Edit: I also hate Alabama.
Edit2: fuck I hate both these teams too
Cardio King Jarin (credit @Hooandtrue) getting in the paint for his one bucket per game.
The NCAA reacted to Bennettball twice — shortening the shot clock and moving back the 3-point line. React to Oatsball by moving the 3-point line back again, or just remove it altogether.
Honestly I’m not even sure moving the line back again would do much, players will just extend their range like they’ve done the past couple years.
In my opinion the best way to combat insane three point rates is by allowing teams to hand check again and cracking down hard on moving screens. Offenses are allowed to create so much space off the dribble and on the perimeter because of constant ball screening and the fear of the foul.
Of course I’m biased, but this “more points = more fun” ideology annoys me. Gotta be somewhere in between Bennett and Oats lol.
Bama 19-41 from 3, and we still got 10 minutes left in this game.
Not sure a team is beatable at the college level when they’re shooting like this.
Texas Tech shot 46 in the first round which was a record… not for long I assume lol
Edit: and they were 13/46
Yeah that’s gonna get broken lol.
This game might be sufficient evidence for the hot hand theory all by itself, lol. Except for Demin, who’s bricking everything.
Kevin Young just learned the lesson Pete Gillen took three or four years in the ACC to learn: Don’t try to speed up a more talented, more athletic basketball team. They’ll destroy you.
And of course, we all know this means that Bama is gonna shoot like 1/31 from 3 against Duke on Saturday. Likely because of satanic powers.
Young made a sweet 16 in his first year at a program that wasn’t even in a power conference 2 years ago. Bro should be giving out lessons, not taking them
What’s the tourney record for points in a game? Marymount had to be involved in scoring or allowing 120.
Lesson #1: coach at a school that has money to spend and will spend it. How long will it take Odom to learn that lesson? I’m thinking about 2 years.
