Selection Committee Games of Interest

Bonnies hot as it gets and from way outside.  I am not exaggerating.  

[HuskerFever]

Second batch of games tonight:

 

Richmond/St. Bonaventure: 39-56 13:31 2nd

Providence/Xavier: 29-43 Halftime
Kent State/Buffalo: 29-39 Halftime
Temple/Wichita State: 13-17 11:42 1st
Mississippi State/Tennessee: 12-15 10:53 1st
Kansas State/Kansas: 12-15 10:53 1st

Bonnies 10-10 in second half 7-7 from deep Mobley 6-6 from deep this half, none within 4 feet of the line.  Something to see, since I have a lot of TV's.

Might as well root for a quality URI/Bonnies A10 championship at this point?

[royalfan]

Getting pretty close to that point.  Richmond not quite done here, but getting close.  

[HuskerFever]

It really seems like Richmond is starting to walk around in transition.

Richmond is such a tease. We all know how this is going to end.

[royalfan]

Damn should have been an and 1 and they get 1 and foul on second miss.  That is probably the game. 

[HuskerFever]

If only that layup fell down. This would be a 50-50 shot at the end of the game!

[HuskerFever]

How did Providence get back in this game? Did Xavier steal Auburn's 2nd half playbook?

[royalfan]

Damn Mississippi St player getting cared off on a board not letting neck etc move.  

[royalfan]

Scary situation he was hurt on previous trip and laying under basket they were shooting at, other end Miss. St. stole it and guy went in for layup off balance a bit and landed on right on his head.  Incredible that play was not stopped.  Hope the young man is okay.  It looked to be the freshman Weatherspoon who is pretty decent player for them.

St. Bonaventure is a pain in my ass.  They are not a very good team, I am convinced of that.

That's not good. Was his first injury related to the second one?

I don't know for sure but it looked like a lower body injury of some kind the first time, and carted off due to getting his head landed on.  Did not have volume on that game, but that looked like what happened.

Not to make light of the situation, but at least it wasn't two blows to the head. That tends to do much more serious brain damage. Hopefully the kid is alright.

[royalfan]

Current situations to be aware of Kansas up 6 with 12 minutes left on ESPN need them.  Wichita up 2 on ESPNU need them with 11 left.  Tennessee up 7 with 15 left on SEC network.  Need them.    And obviously the health of the young Mississippi St player.  

[HuskerFever]

It's hard to argue around tournament time that the Big East (former Horizon, A10, etc.) teams make for some real college hoops entertainment. I'm so glad it's March.

[royalfan]

Weatherspoons older brother stayed in game and was playing while teared up.  

[HuskerFever]

That Providence mascot is terrifying.

Another at large gone?

Officially, yes, but they were likely in after yesterday 

[royalfan]

Huge game underway on CBS Sports Network.  We have got to have Nevada win.  Direct spot lost on the line if they do not.  Not a good start.

Hasn't been a good day. What little hope I had is starting to fizzle out.
