Watching what might be the worst team to appear on TV this year. 1-10 Earlham College (D3) down 64-14 to Ball State with 12 minutes left in the game. Earlham shooting a blistering 9% from the field.

One of their supposedly reliable employees put out a story / tweet that a bunch of schools were involved and interested in signing Trentyn Flowers, a player currently in the NBA on a 2-way contract and has actually played in games.

All of the schools he said were involved were like "what the fuck are you talking about?"

The On3 guy got duped.

Some pretty good Big Ten games tonight and tomorrow.

There's at least one Big Ten conference game going every day for the next 10 days and usually 3 or 4 most days

I know Michigan is awesome, but USC is about to be exposed as a fraud.

Played an incredibly weak schedule so far

Big 10 refs are so terrible.

Missing call after call in this Nebrantska game.

MSU can’t get anything going to the hoop. And I can’t believe I’m pulling for them.

Nebrantska looks like a 70s NHL team. Bunch of ugly fucks.

That was an idiotic foul, Shartman.

You can usually anally rape someone at the end of a game and not get a foul called, but MSU gets that whistle (of course).

Lol at the announcers, that isn't "light" contact. He fucking blatantly grabbed his arm on the game tying shot for fuck's sake.

I'm jealous of the Nebrantska arena. It's newer, it's beautiful and perfect for games. Crowd is nuts in there.

Environment got to MSU. They got passive, took 28 3’s, had 19 turnovers. Dumb stuff on defense like going under screens with Sandfort and Mast.

Rushing the court as the favorite and team with a better record is something.

I really enjoy watching this Chad Baker-Mazara fellow from USC.

Super skinny guy with a ponytail who chucks almost immediately whenever he gets the ball and plays zero defense. Reminds me of LaMelo Ball

He will be 26 this month and is on his 5th team in 6 years. He was a real wildcard on Auburn the last two years but could tell he was destined for the sort of role he now has at USC with Rice out for the season.

It's crazy listening to this Baylor vs. TCU game and hear the announcers gushing over Brock Harding and then having Harding actually look competent.

That is how it was like every Iowa game last year. The announcers would be sucking him off while he was making bonehead play after bonehead play, then he would make a couple of assists and they’d talk about him like he was Pistol Pete.

Makes you wonder if he was the problem or the coaching he was getting or maybe just getting another year of experience.

I liked some things he did but in the end an undersized guard in a physical league. Probably best he moved on.

It could also have been being surrounded by a bunch of soft front court players.

Crazy that the ND coach went after that red but to be fair that call was terrible

Penn State is such a weird basketball program. They either have 1 or 2 elite players and finish top 6 in the Big Ten the win a couple games in the NCAA Tournament or they’re just complete dog shit. There’s never any in between.

Sort of get what you are saying but they have won two games in the tourney just once since joining the Big Ten with the Crispin brothers in 2001. They have finished top 6 in the Big Ten just five times and made the tournament only two of those seasons. They just fucking suck.

He didn't say they happened equally.

I don't think Nebrantska is great or anything, but seeing them +2.5 at Ohio State seems odd to me.

I don't think Ohio State is very good.

Tough to win on the road in the Big Ten though

I'm surprised Rutgers pulled that out. It's been tough sledding for them winning with a roster with guys under 25
