2022-2023 B1G Basketball Thread

I also saw the TV slots are exactly the same for Saturday and Sunday. I feel like those Sunday tip times get worse every year. The only bad thing about moving games off CBS, is no longer needing to finish all of the Sunday games before 60 Minutes.  Only two games start before 5:00, and four of them start after 7:00. Can't wait for 9:30 Sunday night tip

For a cord-cutter like me I'd add not being able to watch. 

I would think they could split it in half.

Apparently yet another Bama basketballer was present at the murder allegedly committed by one of their stars:

youtube TV seems to have all the games

Pitt was up 20 at one point.  I predict  they end up losing by 10+.

Somebody needs to burn this game film of Iowa St-Pitt and bury the ashes.  Horrible.

Iowa St is shooting 9 percent this half.

9.

Big 12 - overrated

Thoughts and prayers to Purdue fans who now have to deal with this Columbus announcing crew

Iowa State was so bad they got blown out by a wholly mediocre Pitt effort.  I think Iowa State today was the worst P5 performance I have ever seen in the tourney.

This has also convinced me the NETs blind spot is bad teams who get good numbers while doing poorly in a good conference.  Neither WVU or ISU looked like a tournament team

the Huskers would have rolled Iowa State

For as much as he whines, and he's not wrong, the last thing Zach Edey wants is for refs to call his games straight.  Yes, he would draw 10 fouls in the first 20 possessions, but he would also have fouled himself out.  They ignore his fouls, while ignoring when he gets fouled

I've said I wish they would do "classic" conference tournaments as preseason tournaments.  Maui and Atlantis are nice, but if they did a Big 8, or SWC, or pre-expansion ACC, or old Big East conference tournaments.  I would LOVE that

I agree somewhat on the NET.  It isn’t perfect and spits out some weird rankings sometimes.  That said, I find the WVU take strange.  They lost an 8-9 game by 2 and led for large chunks of the game.  I didn’t see anything from that performance that screamed “not Tournament worthy.”

I'm not sure Maryland is a tournament team, or MSU in a 1997 system where the better teams were more spread out, and actually had to win games, rather than just accumulate good losses.
