BiH,
I actually agree with you. I think the charge and missing the two FTs earlier got in his head a bit. Also, he passed to Mason on the possession earlier which I didn’t think made sense. Mason had his pass knocked out of bounds, thankfully, but it seemed strange to me when

Inter got the team everyone wanted, which will more than likely set up a great semifinal against Barcelona. I believe Mourinho will be putting everything into the Champs League now, even if it means sacrificing Serie A.

Hearing Murray Hewitt’s voice never gets old…even if the commercials could use his comedic talent much better.
Cornell is impressive, Temple got fucked with them as a 12.

Turn off the sound and watch the replay of Johnson’s setup and motion shooting the free throws. They never had a chance of going in. After the first one, he sighs heavily, looks up at the ceiling (?), moves his feet nervously and generally gives off the body language of wishing the earth

Trips, thanks for all your posts this season. I don’t always agree with you but that is sort of the point of a blog isn’t it? Your assesments are usually well-written, informative and fair and where else can you find those qualities?
As for the team, I watched a loose, confident and

Why didn’t we call a time out after Wake hit the go ahead jumper?
The clock would have been reset to ~1.5 seconds. Wouldn’t the ball have been advanced to half-court? Or was that rule changed?

If AB can get inside the top 15 or so, he should go. If he can’t, then he should come back. He’s got a lot of warts on his game, but a lot to build on as well…..

“This may seem arrogant but I believe its true – if you are a coach in virtually any sport at UT, you will be a good recruiter.

It’s not Brown’s fault they made a bad call. It is Brown’s fault giving the ball up there. In his defense, he was in a pretty sick spot in the corner. Not in his defense, he is allowed to dribble and shouldn’t BE in the corner in the first place.

I knew what you meant with the homer comment.
I agree that it mostly comes down to Denmon and English shooting well again. They don’t have set career highs, but they do have to at least hit their season averages for Mizzou to have a chance.

- I moved Illinois up and I believe if they played Wisconsin tomorrow, they would kick their ass. Yet, somehow I didn’t have the balls to switch those two. I may switch them in the next 2 or 3 weeks.

Wilner also has Mizzou and Bama at 1 and 2, with LSU at 16 and Kansas unranked! I wonder sometimes if these guys watch the same games the rest of us do.
But Adam Van Brimmer from the Savannah (GA) Morning News takes the cake for extreme voters. Check his poll out while you’re over there. Bama at #2, South Florida unranked, UCLA in the top 15, and so on….
