Non Tiger basketbal games... - realtigerinstl - 02-22-2014 03:53 PM
Just curious...what motivates you to watch a game that does not invole our beloved Tigers.
A. Conference affiliation or some type of direct impact on the Tigers
B. The game involves a team which you love to hate.
C. You have a second team that you enjoy watching.
D. You're just a college basketball junkie and can't get enough.

a little bit of most of those, though I wouldn't call myself a junkie, just a huge sports fan
I also enjoy watching the Grizzlies.

I will watch any conference game, any top 25 game to see what the Tigers have to overcome Tournament time. Keeps me grounded.

BTW...my first answer would be A. I realized that today while I was watching the cards and bearcats. I haven't cared about watching their game in years. For the past few years my answer would have been B.

A. I'm not so much a college bob fan as I am a Memphis tigers fan!

Today it was B. I tuned in as Cuonzo called a timeout while Barton hit what appeared to be the game winning 3 with 2 seconds left at TA&M. Ref called the timeout for the Vawls while Barton was midair about to release the ball. It was great to watch, long story short, they tied on the next play went to overtime and lost.

All of the above for me!
I support two college teams every game and three more teams most every game, except when they're playing either of my two favorites! I prefer to watch any CUSA/AAC game first, SEC game second and (the former) Big East because of Louisville and Cincy, mostly.
But I love to watch just about any basketball game.

C: Wichita State, reminds me off all the hate Memphis got in CUSA. Can't help but root for the underdogs.

Me too. Easy to get used to being in a great conference, though, huh?
RE: Non Tiger basketbal games... - Psicosis - 02-24-2014 12:25 AM
For basketball and football, I mostly try to catch conference-mates in action. I used to watch everything I could, but I got too bitter over realignment ~10 years ago and mostly just watch stuff that affects the Tigers.
There are also some teams out there that I have a fondness for, so I catch those if I notice they're on.

RE: Non Tiger basketbal games... - BIGDTiger - 02-24-2014 12:27 AM
Ima basketball fan & student of the game. Therefore I watch.
