Well since nobody else has done it yet I thought I'd start it up. Let's discuss some college basketball! Hook'em Horns!

Well my team looked terrible on offense tonight and won by 30+ on a #5 ranked team. Gonna be an exciting season. Got cats!

I just saw that score a little bit ago and was like WTF?! Definitely didn't think Kansas would get beat by 30+. As usual look like Kentucky will have a strong team.

Horns playing Iowa tonight and only favored by 4. Must be something I don't know about Iowa. I'm thinking Horns by at least 10.

Texas with a great win over UConn today next up is Kentucky on Friday. Going to be a tough game but I think Texas is one of the only teams that can matchup with the Cats size.

We take down Syracuse and the Big10 wins the Big10/ACC Challenge. Woot! After a miserable football season I'm looking forward to a good basketball one.

Texas should be blowing Kentucky out right now but their inability to shoot free throws and massive amounts of turnovers have kept Kentucky in this game. Both teams looked pretty bad in that first half.

Don't ask lol. Last year we started 6-4 with a loss to Charlotte and still went on to have a great season so it's not really a big deal, but good grief lol.

Yeah it's still early in the season and teams have to get their rhythm going and start firing on all cylinders.

Ok so how 'bout now? NJIT then Eastern? A paltry 42 points against EMU.... Wow have they fallen. The B1G part of the schedule is going to be rough. All our big guys have Marino's mobility and Pettigrew's hands, and all our shooters are streaky as ****.

Give it time. Beilein is a fantastic developer of talent. This team is YOUNG. 2 juniors and 1 senior on the whole team and the senior hardly plays. It'll come.

Kentucky almost got dropped by freaking Columbia. That UK offense is horrendous, very stifling D though and size galore. This is not even close to the Anthony Davis championship team of 2012 but I'd be surprised if they had more than 3 losses this year. Can't decide if I hate them more (almost entirely because of Calamari) or UNC, tough call.

GO DUKE!

Duke is a bunch of homos. Uk hasn't won by any less than double digits all year. Surprise me if they got beat honestly. I'm sure they will lose a few. But they are the best team in ncaa by a long shot

They'd have to have an effective offense to be the best team in the NCAA "by a long shot". Long shots are part of their problem. When they come across a team with some size down low that rebounds well, they're going to have problems. I just look forward to them falling short in the tourney again.

So let me get this straight, you down Kentucky for beating Columbia by ten, but duke beats elon by 13 and they are far superior? Lol what a joke
