College Basketball Talk

[jilbagh]

anyone else into this rivalry???

Tarheels really had a chance last night to win, blew it on a defensive breakdown and Duhon went in on a red carpet to the hoop for a layup...Roy Williams must've been really frustrated...i'd hate to be at practice tomorrow!!

[Inna]

hahaha..i'm totally into ACC basketball (since i go to NC state :D ) but i'm still a huge Duke fan...i didnt get to see the game last night cause of my dern tv not working well..but i got to see the last 5 minutes of the game..it was awesome..UNC deserved everything they got hehehe..Rexxxx is the man...cant wait for the State/Duke game

ya i'm not too fond of Duke...plus once they are all american players in college with Duke...they crap out from becoming stars in the NBA...because they play a totally different game and learn a different system than what is played in the NBA.

Jordan, Worthy, Fox, Wallace, Carter, Stackhouse...to name a few Tarheels

Dukies...Grant Hill was the only hope, now he's basically awol...any other stars?

[Hogg]

Elton Brand, man! The most underrated player in the NBA.

whatever u say it cant get more boring than N. Carolina/Duke thread....what were u thinking??

[fstkhnan]

for example......cal poly/ UCSD sounds sooo much better lol....:D :D :D

[Inna]

I'm not much into NBA..so i really dont care what happens to the college players after they go into the NBA...i just care about how good they are while playing the sport in college..thats why i LOVE Duke..or as Chapell "Heel" calls them DOOK ...lol..i think its funny..the bigger the rivalry the better the game to watch

[jilbagh]

oh boy:eek:

You go to another ACC school but love Duke? Well, I guess I would've been a USC fan no matter what school I went to but that's still kind of weird. I'm guessing/hoping you liked Duke before you started college.

I guess i should have said i love Duke Basketball thats about it..its a grt school and all but i'm not about to go to a school just cause i like their b-ball team....and Yes, i started likeing their b-ball team in middle school..so i've been a fan for awhile now:D

[Hogg]

Don't tell me you would rather go to NC St. over Duke.

What's wrong with going to a school because of their sports team? That's why I go to USC. :p

u go to USC cuz of its sports??? ru an athlete??or just a fan?

[Hogg]

1. Fan
2. I wasn't serious. Even if I was, it's not like I would choose to go to UC Riverside or another crappy school because I was a fan of their team(s). USC just happens to be a good school with a good football team. I've been a huge SC fan since I was a kid so it's perfect.

[jilbagh]

I still hate duke

Duke is a great academic school and all, but have you checked out their majors..not much to choose from and nothing that i would ever considering majoring in....and its wayyyy too expensive..i prefer NC state:D ...or UNC ;) (hopefully transfering there next semester)

[Inna]

[Hogg]

[jilbagh]

Congrats to NC State for knocking off Duke!!! Job well done!!! Damn them duke's!!!!

[Inna]

Hehehe..i was rather excited that we won..i kinda feel bad though for Duke..they looked so good being undefeated..but oh well...it was an amazing game....I'm proud of my WOLFPACK!!

13-0 Baby (home games that is):D

[dstyle]

good job, but duke actually had one loss already.

[Inna]

i ment in the ACC

[dstyle]

haha my bad :D

[loseyourname]

And Stanford goes to number 1. Not that I care about Stanford, but at least it's a Pac-10 school.

[Hogg]

We're going to hand Stanford its first loss on Thursday.

[dstyle]

ya they can if they play liek there suppsoed 2. 2 much talent to lose anywehre near 10 games. fire bibby,

[fstkhnan]

Originally posted by Hogg We're going to hand Stanford its first loss on Thursday.

no ur not.....they rock.... 21-0 record......unbelievable.....and they're ranked 1st in 2 rankings!

[Hogg]

Originally posted by fstkhnan no ur not.....they rock.... 21-0 record......unbelievable.....and they're ranked 1st in 2 rankings!

They're going to win because it'll be the first time ever I grace the basketball team with my presence. It helped lead the football team to an undefeated record at home and it'll do the same to our hoops team. (Competely ignores the fact that the football team is actually good)

[Hogg]

:mad: All the people I know at SC are lames who don't like sports so I guess Stanford will remain undefeated. (I still think we're going to win.)

[dstyle]

Sc is winning, but theyre not showing the game or the clips game on tv. i feel robbed.

[Hogg]

Listening to this game on the radio is like having Beyonce naked while she's stuck in a glass box with no way in. xxxx Fox Sports Net for showing UCLA-Cal instead of this game. Two mediocre teams or a mediocre team vs. the #1 team? Morons! God damn this'll be bittersweet if SC pulls this out.

[fstkhnan]

hahaha. and Stanford is 22-0 now.....they beat SC 76-67.....

[dstyle]

mean mean u r. its ok sc will kill them in fball

[fstkhnan]

Originally posted by dstyle mean mean u r. its ok sc will kill them in fball

ummm well we're in Winter season now.....so there is a long time to get to the football season....lets live day by day....now Stanford is on top of the basketball polls....and SC sux in bball....hahahaha YESSSSS

[Hogg]

lol @ this ho hatin'. Sorry, I didn't mean to call you a ho. It just came out. They would've pulled it out if I was there. :****(

Stanford with its tree mascot can pray to stay past the 1st round

let's accept it u guys....Stanford is and going to stay the National Champ 2004!so congrats selefen!lol

[Hogg]

There's no way in hell Stanford is going to be NC. I'll bet on that.

[fstkhnan]

they will be for sure....I dont usually bet on things that im really sure about, cuz I like taking risk, and this one isnt gonna be a risk.....but trust me dont bet on it, I dont want my fellow Armenian to lose a bet!

stanford is too soft to be nat'l champs....uconn,duke, kentucky as a sleeper, kansas can make a run, gonzaga..

sorry coach montgomery!!!

place your bets on uconn, duke, kentucky

i dont know about Duke anymore..they've lost two games in a row (State and Wake):( .......i just hope at least one of the NC schools will be the champs this yr:D

[dstyle]

USC is gona winded. ok ok its a pipe dream, but if they win the conference tournament championship, and play like they're able to maybe just maybe they can win.

[fstkhnan]

see, a "maybe" is a possibility......but it's less than 50-50...it's about 10% chance!the season is getting close to the end.....so we'll see!

[jilbagh]

another sleeper...Oklahoma State... Eddie Sutton has his squad taking no mercy this season!!! Also U of Texas, the longhorns are out to dominate, and they're successful...Stanford has no chance against these big 12.

[jilbagh]

Stanford gets lucky again with a last second desperation 3 pointer to win by 2...they're time is coming to lose! hopefully in the tourny to make way for Kentucky, UConn, Texas!

[jilbagh]

Like I said...Stanford will collapse soon!! and they did! Good game against Washington, 26-1 nice record for Stanford...it won't matter in the tourney.

Time for N. Carolina and Duke!

[steelers10]

i know it might be a little early but it will soon be college bball season again and im thinking about how the panthers are gonna finally win this years tournament...they have the tools and players to accomplish this feat after getting of so close the last 3 years...anyone disagree?

[dstyle]

They look good again for a run, plus they have great recruiting from what I remember. Anyone can win, would rather have pitt then the likes of duke, blah. Still would want CSUN or USC to win lol.

[jilbagh]

OK STATE!!! watch out for OK STATE!! and Texas

[steelers10]

hmmmm i like john lucas III....he was smart for transferring out of baylor after the murder and subsequent scandal....i dont know if they can do it though....just a thought

[jilbagh]

hmmmm i like john lucas III....he was smart for transferring out of baylor after the murder and subsequent scandal....i dont know if they can do it though....just a thought

they're older, wiser, and have 3 new great transfers...watch out!!!

[Inna]

USC is playing us on the 28th and I just wanted to know whether they have a good basketball team and if its worth it to go to that game

[jilbagh]

they're 6th-7th in the PAC...not a great team

[jilbagh]

isn't Oklahoma playin @Duke this year? is it in Norman?

[Inna]

isn't Oklahoma playin @Duke this year? is it in Norman?

Yes, Oklahoma is playing Duke, its going to be in NYC tough.

[jilbagh]

Yes, Oklahoma is playing Duke, its going to be in NYC tough.
might be worth the trip to see jj reddek

[Inna]

might be worth the trip to see jj reddek

if all you want to see is JJ redxxxx than why dont you just go to one of their home games, I'm sure the tickets in Durham are cheaper than in NYC

[loseyourname]

I'd expect Arizona and Oregon to have really good teams this year. UCLA had a great recruiting class, but they might still be a year away. Even though none of the three are ranked, they could surprise some people. It's a shame what happened to USC with Robert Swift. That guy won't be getting any play at Seattle this year, especially if they remain this good.

[jilbagh]

fighting illini are looking damn good!!! KU, rock chak jayhawk baby!!!

[loseyourname]

Jayhawks are not looking so good right now.

[jilbagh]

yeah 14 days later after i post that...they'll bounce back, Bill Self's teams down go down that much. OK State had an upset. Other than Arizona I dont see any PAC 10 power teams. The ACC is loaded again, Tarheels are underratted, it's crazy. Don't underestimate OU, Wake, Syracuse and UConn

[Inna]

so how bout them tarheels?!?! :D

I thought I would never be a tarheel fan..but things really do change when you go to school here..your blood turns CAROLINA blue

[loseyourname]

How about them Yellow Jackets, eh? Damn, they should have beat Duke today. These tournament games have been great. I'm very impressed by Florida lately.
