Let the games begin! Weekend (11/10-12) Games

[SCGamecock]

Missouri lost to Western Kentucky.

Hmm.. where's our good friend @Bliss? ....

Seriously though, WKU is a sneaky good team but Missouri should've won this game with little difficulty. I wonder what happened.

Number 20 Texas A&M is up 56-48 over Houston with 3:06 left in the third quarter.

Also ranked #20, Cal is tied with St Mary's, 66 all, with about 9 minutes left in the game.

And LSU lost to South Florida. Not a banner day for the SEC so far.

MTSU beat Vanderbilt .

MTSU beat Vanderbilt .

Not a huge shock. MTSU also a solid program. But yeah, not a good sign for Vandy.

 

[Plebe]

Cal is playing without Anigwe, right?

Never mind. I just saw the box score and she's playing.

St. Mary's is a decent team but this is not a good sign for Cal.

Baylor is becoming known for this type of scoreline against their much-lesser OOC foes: 121-63 over Lamar.

Kalani Brown had 26 points and 21 rebounds.
Also scoring in double figures: Chou, Cohen, Wallace, Cox, Morris.

Early on, the score was about 10-10. I guess Baylor went on a big closing run.

DePaul lost at home to Northern Colorado....

Tulane crushed Maine 42-34....

I didn't think DePaul should've been ranked to begin with. Losing January, Schulte, and Grant is a lot to make up for. But I'm still a little surprised they'd lose to Northern Colorado. Hopefully Bruno can bring his kids around in time for Big East season.

You mean like this fiasco from last year.

If you want to be abused, head on over to Baylor.

Tulane crushed Maine 42-34....

"Crushed"??? Hardly. I was there....game was nip & tuck the whole way. It was tied at 34 before Tulane scored the final 8 points. Both offenses were horrifying.

Does anybody know if the Notre Dame game is televised at 1pm today (Saturday, November 11, 2017)?

Also, am I correct to assume that Notre Dame is the only top 25 team playing today?

Looking at WatchESPN's schedule for today, yes to ND being the only top 25 team to play. It also seems that the game will be shown on the ACC Network. I'm assuming (I know never assume) if you're able to get WatchESPN, you can also watch the ACC Network.

I'm here and disappointed. WKU a good team but, yeah, we should have won. I have no explanation.

Just looking at the box score, Cunningham and Frericks were great (combined 49 points on 20-of-30 shooting) but got little help scoring-wise. The rest of the team was 9 of 29.

The differences were in 3-point shooting and free throws. Mizzou shot 5-of-18 from three and 13-of-19 from the line, while WKU shot 8-of-19 from 3 and 19-of-22 from the line. Mizzou's overall FG% was better but not enough to overcome the deficit on 3pt shooting and FTs.

Yes, ACC Network is available through WatchESPN/ESPN3.

Starting lineup for the Irish today vs. Mt. St. Mary's:
Thompson (Sr.)
Ogunbowale (Jr.)
Mabrey (Jr.)
Young (So.)
Shepard (Jr.)

You can tell that the Lamar coach isn't a lawyer. He has his hand in his own pocket.

That was the Winthrop coach Kevin Cook at the end of last year's Winthrop-Baylor game (won by Baylor 140-32).

Cook would be suspended in January 2017 and fired in March. Here's an informative article about the coaching situation at Winthrop:
What happened to Winthrop women’s basketball and former coach Kevin Cook?

Dayton beat Tulane 71-65.

Missouri 36 Quinnipiac 35
4 minutes left in the 3rd

Sophie Cunningham pretty quiet with only 8 pts

It was tongue-in-cheek due to the 76 combined points.

I figured as much after I posted....I'm just a bit touchy after such an offensive debacle.

Maine leads Harvard today 71-46 in the 4th Q....a total turnaround from last night.

Anyone else watching past UConn games to get ready for tomorrow? Think I'll watch the 2015 South Carolina game that was played during a blizzard next. Or maybe the 2016 Miss St game. Or the 2015 Texas game.

I watched the Oregon game the other day. It was a nice upper.
