B12 bball "season thread"

College basketball is honestly the worst it’s ever been. I’ve watched way less college this year. It’s kinda sad how down the talent is and the G League is putting a huge hurting on it. I’m just going to have to watch more and more NBA.
Moss and Dok shot 14-23.
Everyone else shot 11-34.
Sloppy night but a road W. On to the next one.
Kind of a weird game, not much flow, OU hung around but never really seemed to threaten.
It's like KU was playing without their star PG or something.
Kind of surprised you guys dont have another capable PG. It really wasn't a big deal last night but I'll admit to having a little chuckle watching Charlie Moore put up 30 against Nova. Really odd how his time at KU turned out.
I thought Garrett actually looked like more of a PG in the traditional sense than Dotson Garrett didn't turn the ball over and ran the offense and got guys looks. He is a better passer than Dotson. I believe they said Garrett played point in HS.
Yes, congrats to Charlie Moore on averaging 16.75 points a game during DePaul's now 4 game losing streak.
I think his man just scored another bucket while I was typing this.
Baylor has certainly made some hay with wins at TxT and at Ku. They are in the best position presently to win the league. What happened, they ditched the zone defense. That was the fundamental change.
His team has only had to sacrifice a little length to gain a lot of foot speed and quickness. They are dangerous for sure.
Well that decision was made because they have guys that that are more suited to playing man to man than the zone. They have three small guards a 6'5 4 man and Gillespie who isn't their typical big.
To be fair in any one year there is a very, very small minority of teams playing exclusively zone defense. The odds would suggest that practically every national champ would be a man defense team.
CBB changed, Drew adjusted. They played a lot of quite a bit of m2m last year as well. He's very well respected but making this shift and actually improving isn't getting enough attention. Baylor as a whole isn't really getting the respect they deserve. They beat UW who beat Baylor but comparing the schedules, the Zags have no business being rated ahead of Baylor, no one does. They've played and beaten more top 25 teams than anyone.
yeah, I don't think Gonzaga is top 5 but they will remain #1 for the rest of the year because of their schedule.
