>>63530540
Couple years ago they struck a deal to get their own TV network, But only people with time warner cable have access to it, which sucks because thats where most of their games are being broadcasted

It's even worse when he has to guard 3s instead of 4s though. Gonzaga isn't going to be able to play big ball unless Sabonis can check 3s.
>zags and pitt pouring sweat
will any players fall out before the game is over?
I'm already thinking this is going to be a very low scoring affair
Does Japan not have air conditioning or something?
>>63533169
It's also 10:00 am there, though they might not feel it because of the jet lag.

>>63533579
that's what I'm thinking
to hot and humid to play because of dehydration, and the court has got to be collecting moisture from the air alone
If I'm gonna watch apehoop for a word, my word is Poontang
>inb4 a Marine rapes someone before the game is over
>>63533612
The humidity is the problem, plus 2.7k people in the gym. Guys keep falling on the court because of it.
so lads are we going to try and keep /cbb/ alive all season or just for days with lots of top 25 games?
the last couple years since the tripfags have stopped showing up as much, the threads usually died on slow days
You can't cancel the game! That sweaty Asian marine came all the way to America-Japan to see it.
>>63533284
I'm ready senpai
>>63533733
I bet if they were playing this game on a Carrier, there would be less issues for the court surface
In fact, I think if they had just got the kids to adjust to concrete before the season starts, they could play those Carrier games on the tarmac, no issues
maybe break in some sneaks with tackier soles before the game

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Marines, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

who /blowout/ here?
>>63535312
>preseason kenpom
Come on now.
>>63535586
Its statistically more accurate than the preseason polls.
Of course no preseason ranking will be particularly good, but going off Kenpom is better than pretending everyone is equal of going off the human polls. (there are probably a couple other formulaic ratings that are better though, I haven't really looked into it)

>>63536019
>Comparing it to preseason polls isn't saying much
its comparing it to the thing most people use
>Vegas odds are probably the best thing to go by at this point.
Liek just taking them in order of the liklihood Vegas gives them to win the championship? I really have no idea how accurate that is. I know Kenpom and a handful of other preseason metrics have specifically designed their calculations to use metrics that have correlated with being good predictors in past seasons. A good portion of the ranking is the team's average ranking over the last few years as it turns out that is the single best metric to predict performance
I mean I don't take any ranking too seriously, but its better to use a ranking than just guess

I am entirely indifferent to where Western Illinois belongs, but please never even mention RPI unless specifically trying to predict the actions of the selection committee who still apparently uses it for some reason
Its just an awful metric, and its a damn shame anyone uses it for anything

i just wanted the worst looking number for shitposting desu senpai

is that one of those fake colleges that plays these BTFO games just to get the compensation cash from the bigger schools?
Anyone else remember that other game were it was like 150-10 for that church school and /sp/ found it was basically a shell school
>>63536692
>it was basically a shell school
this is true of pretty much all non-catholic religious schools
>>63536734
Yeah, but this school was found to basically be entirely ran out of the back rooms for a public church in the midwest somewhere
>>63536692
Remember when sp was going to create a university to cash in on that cupcake schedule money?
>>63536777
>it was basically a shell school
I know, I was just kidding, I was actually in that thread
>>63536112
>Liek just taking them in order of the liklihood Vegas gives them to win the championship?
Exactly. Take last year for example. Final kenpom top 25 were
1. Kentucky (preseason KP #3, Vegas #1)
2. Zona (KP#5, Vegas#2)
3. Wisconsin (KP#6, V#4)
4. Duke (KP#1, V#3)
5. Virginia (KP#8, V#16)
6. Villanova (KP#9, V#10)
7. Gonzaga (KP#18, V#8)
8. Utah (KP#42, V#45)
9. Notre Dame (KP #69, V #47)
10. Wichita (KP#10, V#10)
11. UNC (20, 5)
12. UNI (70, 69)
13. Oklahoma (28, 21)
14. Kansas (4, 6)
15. MSU (12, 15)
16. Louisville (3, 10)
17. Baylor (24, 27)
18. ISU (25, 10)
19. Iowa (32, 24)
20. Butler (67, 69)
21. OSU (14, 20)
22. Xavier (66, 67)
23. SMU (36, 26)
24. Georgetown (22, 27)
25. Texas (19, 9)
Kenpom was an average of 15.04 spots off in predicting it's own top 25. Vegas was 12.72 spots off.
The Texass vs. Washington game is such a shitshow
Almost as bad as the earlier gookland game, but at least thing is actually gonna get finished and has Walton
UF 59 - 41 Navy
Woo, 1-0
Who else /muchimproved/ here?
This team looks watchable and we were missing our five star, top 10 overall "best player in program history" wonderkid freshman.
>>63535061
I think they do with football too. McNeese is a small school that is close by. LSU gets to support a local small uni with a big check and collect a win. A good situation for both.
Scoring seems to be up a ton so far. Not sure if that's due to 30 second clock or freedom of movement rules.
>>63536977
>gets a hyped recruit
>thinks it will change anything
It won't. How land is shit and 5 star kids will literally expect to be given women and money everyday to play sports in Mississippi when they could be playing at a respectable program
What the fuck is Walton talking about?
Do you have a source for the Vegas ratings stuff, sems interesting
First time watching college apehoop. Who is this faggot commentator on the Texas Washington game and is he always this annoying
>>63537054
the 30 second shot clock is going to have a very minimal ffect on scoring. It'll mean one or two more possessions per gamee, but will also make offenses worse
>>63537058
Our 2016 recruiting class is already better than any other in the past 15 years.
Also. Newman's dad is an MSU legend. That and Howland having some NBA players is why he came.
I'm not expecting miracles, just better than 13 wins and 66 points per game.
>>63537058
also he and Quindarry are from Mississippi... He is a life long Mississippi State fan.
>>63537071
I just went to internet archive and plugged in

Damn it hurts to hear how much worse Bill Walton has gotten
Used to be my favorite commentator during the early 2000s back when he worked nba games
>tfw I had to work
They're gonna be over 100 foul shots by the end of this Texas/Wash game
>>63537303

Texas/Wash was literally one of the worst college basketball games I've seen in years. 88 free throws on almost entirely phantom calls.
Seems like the first game in China was required to be a close one and the refs felt the heat to call the game with that in mind. Absolute bullshit game both ways.

Nonconference play is more important because you're playing teams you don't scout a whole lot and vice versa. It's a lot closer to the tournament. It also gives you an idea of which conferences are good.
