What was the line for this game?

Got ND @ -1.5

ND's home tenacity + UK needing time to acquaint themselves was my reasoning

Thanks. I figured they would be favored considering their home dominance

I was referring to the Super Six, aka the six most elite programs in the history of the game. That's not hating. Ohio State is not one of them.

Apparently, beating Kentucky is not a big deal.

As a nd fan it's a good win but Kentucky isn't a top team this year. it feels great to beat Kentucky but yet I kind of expected it

Michael Dixon leaving Missouri. Strangely, he's able to transfer and play now. Funny to realize that he could literally be playing somewhere else very shortly...for a guy picked 1st Team All-SEC...

With two rape allegation this guy seems pretty toxic. It will be interesting to see where he ends up.

Aside from that, he sounds like a good guy.

When I saw on the sports ticker that a Missouri Tiger was transferring my first thought was Frank Haith. :D He'll be following suit -- by being fired -- in two or three years.

The thing is, he hasn't been charged with either. One of them is from 2010. Maybe it's still pending, but it's still "allegations" at this point...

Never said it did...but again, it's from 2010. We'll see if he's ever charged...

It's not like I'm defending it. I don't give a shit about his legal trouble. I really only care about his impact on college basketball...he's an elite player and could really decide to go anywhere and make an impact.

Tennessee and Georgetown, while not surprising with Martin and Thompson III at the helm, locked in a fierce offensive showdown with 2 minutes left.

37-36 G-Town :laugh:

The winner gets UCLA in a "first to score 30 wins" contest.

If the score isn't ugly enough, look at these stats for the teams combined.

3-pointers - 4/22
free throws - 7/20

26 fouls and only 31 field goals made...

I have Arkansas +9.5. They are generally very, very good at Bud-Walton Arena. Even last year they were brutal on the road, but very good at home even with like 8 new players.
