Brisket is on the smoker for tomorrow (new pecan pellets - hope they are amazing), basketball soon, bourbon and beer...this is the life.

Let's enjoy the day! Boomer!

Big 12 vs SEC to start. Baylor up 3 early.

Big Troy fan today.

Big Troy fan today.

I never had an issue with Kentucky basketball until the last month.

 

[NickZepp]

Alabama is struggling with Bob Morris.

 

[pnkranger]

SEC sucks ya’ll. Pretty lackluster play across the board so far.

 

[SoonerDutch]

Honestly who didn’t expect to see the SEC struggle until we take the court.

 

[NickZepp]

Baylor has controlled most of this game and finally starting to show it on the scoreboard.

 

[Boom Soon]

Honestly who didn’t expect to see the SEC struggle until we take the court.

I definitely thought the SEC would have a better showing. But, anything can happen in March.

I get that. I do think Adolph Rupp was kind of a racist. and like I posted in another thread my granddad was friends with Don Haskins.

they were old white guys together, who weren't racists. it was possible.

Go Texas Western.

 

[NickZepp]

Rob Morris vs Bama may be getting real

Baylor/Miss State is close in the last 90 seconds.

 

[pnkranger]

I'm so confused how a team like Alabama can beat Kentucky by 29 and Mississippi State by 38 and be struggling with Robert Morris.

 

[NickZepp]

Robert Morris leads.

Their style of play suits being an underdog much more than it does being a favorite. They have such a wide variance of outcomes because they play so fast and rely so much on shooting 3s. Couple that with not the best defense and on an off night they can get beat by anyone

 

[NickZepp]

Baylor wins.

Bama is back up by 5.

He Probably was but honestly don't care. It was a character flaw at the time that was common but a lot of social norms were different then. No love lost for Kentucky though.

 

[NickZepp]

Bama will win. Iowa State is blowing out Lipscomb. Memphis leads Colorado State.

It’s mental. The approach isn’t always the same and you do still have to execute. They likely took this game too lightly. It happens all the time
