K State.

 

LOL is that what he wrote?

 

Weak.  K-State's first 10 games (according to KenPom) was against a complete garbage schedule.  The highest ranked opponent they had in that stretch was 49th ranked Arizona state (loss) and their highest ranked win was at #91 Vanderbilt.  They also lost to #110 Tulsa.

I liked at the end they showed the three ex-Huskers standing together getting a photo taken and the announcers (who were speaking Dutch, I believe) were saying "Nebraska" and "University of Nebraska Cornhuskers" over and over.  ?

I can only hope my boy van Poelgeest was there cheering on his fellow alumni!

Ah yes I can finally be of some use to the board.  I am not fluent (don't need to be because every Dutchman speaks perfect English anyway), but the announcers basically said, "The boys from Nebraska taking a (nice) photo.  They all are taking the photo together, from the University of Nebraska Cornhuskers.  Dourisseau, Petteway, and Jeter all from the same state, from the same region.  Usually, they return home in the summer with some money"  Then they go back to game wrapup saying Jeter had a nice 22 points in the defeat.

 

Interesting game to watch tonight on the Youtube replay, given the lack of compelling college games tonight

Did you see that flop against Jeter and the technical shots he got for it? Sounds like an international rule we need to adopt.

This ?

 

In a semi-related note, did you see the end of the Villanova-Penn game on Tuesday where the 'Nova kid kept trying to draw a foul on his 3 point shots by kicking his legs out wildly to catch any kind of contact with the defender then flopping to the ground as if he'd been shot?  The refs refused to call the foul (which is the correct call there) and the kid was just apoplectic that they wouldn't.  I was pleased by that.

This was ridiculous!  He did it probably 3 times in 30 seconds.  The time he made one and wanted the foul he went nuts!
