***General CBB 2020-21 Season Thread***

[IndyClone15]

I've had a hard time wanting to watch CBB this year with how our season has gone, but I love CBB too much. I think I've finally kicked apathy in the ass and am ready to get into the conference tourneys and March Madness.

I’ve felt some of this too. The OSU-WV game is sure helping, though. Very good basketball being played.

WVU loses by three. They hit a three pointer that would have tied it, but the clock had already hit zero. Fun game

Virginia wins at the buzzer vs Syracuse. Great start for CBB today.

Got to say that I'm more and more impressed with Boynton every time I see OSU play. I think they really discovered a diamond in the rough with that hire.

And yes, I know he had the #1 NBA draft pick fall into his lap, but he did sweep Kansas in his very first season there, and they also won at WVU without Cunningham.

It's much easier for me to root for Tony Bennett vs Jim Boeheim

Georgetown/Nova is close. Nova just drilled back to back 3s to go up by 5 with just over a minute left.

He's so far maybe fit the more traditional mold of building up the program rather than injecting instant success.

They had a streak of 24 years in the tourney, with their last miss being in 1995 when Coach K missed most of the season with a back injury.

Longest consecutive streaks
KU — 30 — 1990 to present -- I assume that doesn't include 2021, but not sure
UNC — 27 — 1975-2001

Georgetown takes down Nova. There were a few questionable fouls at the end that went Georgetown's way (in my opinion), but Nova still had a decent look at the end to try to win it.

we're reacting live on discord.

Some really good games so far though. Think all the early games have been within a basket.

Your assumption is correct.

Two stand-up programs there.

UT/Tech wasn't the cleanest game but was super fun to watch.

Was like two heavyweight fighters swinging away.

Baylor/OSU heading for a fun ending

 

[madguy30]

It's too bad KU/UT didn't work out.

These teams are playing some tough ball.

 

[Cyched]

Think OSU beats Texas tomorrow. They're red hot

Maybe ISU should just hire Boynton.

Seems simple enough.

Can't say I'm heartbroken about Baylor losing.
