Richmond is 0-2, and both games were home games.

Delaware won 76-63, and Jacksonville State ran Richmond out their own gym, 94-61.

Regarding the two Richmond losses, Richmond was down to Delaware 49-18 at halftime, and to Jacksonville State 50-29 at halftime. These were blowouts!

Jacksonville State lost today to Buffalo, 81-76. Buffalo is Cincy’s first opponent in the Classic. Cincy is now 10th in KenPom.com.

Can anything be done to block signatures or if not the posters who use massive, meaningless huge signatures which makes reading their posts very difficult.
I asked one guy nicely by pm to consider removing it and he cussed me out.
But several have them. Its not like they have any purpose other than making their posts hard to read.

No telling how many pounds of sweat went through that jersey. What's left of it is neatly folded in a plastic bag and put away. Yes, I washed it first. I also have a second generation UAB practice jersey that Coach tossed me in 1983. It is green with white letters on one side and white with green letters turned inside out, size XL and hangs down to my knees, much more durable and still hangs in my closet. I haven't worn it in years. The next time I wear both, UAB will be one minute away from tip-off in the first round game of the Final Four. All things are possible for one who believes.

Your avatar is fine, its not offensive and does not get in the way of reading content.

One guy has a long rant on Haase and other off topic nonsense and another guy has a huge pic of legion field.

When I asked little big dee nicely to remove it, FU was his response.

I watched the entire Richmond game and they looked worse than Chattanooga. Their best player is out until December and they play many freshman and sophomores. We'd have to play extremely poorly to lose this one.

Assuming we don't blow the Richmond game, what are your thoughts on our chances vs Cinci?

From what I'm seeing, the (legal) video streaming option is a $30 subscription charge.

Guess I'll be snuggling up to my radio/phone for these games.

Saw that. Audio will be my choice unless something else becomes available.

Don't single me out.

How do you not single someone out, if you were the only one who told him that.

Guess your own answer to seem to know all anyway.

Bring home the Cayman Island's Classic Trophy, Blazers! I believe this UAB Team can do it!

Belief can defeat any obstacle: we have football!

Some of the best new players were already on the roster: somehow, Nate Darling learned to attack the rim. Cokely picked up a mid-range shot. Lee resigned as Mayor of Blockingham and started defending his man.

The ability is there.

This guy is pulling our legs...

Its so all different in tournaments (The Cayman Islands) have to through the record books out in tournaments like this. Well It's, the Caymans they might see that beach and forget to play Basketball. That's what happened when Romo saw Simpson before the superbowl, He saw Jessica and forgot he had a game the next day. (Only Joe can pull that off - Nameth).

Say to my Face punk

Hey guy did you just call me a drunk guy. Say to my face punk f.

No. He's just saying, like all of us, that your posts are rambling, incoherent, and barely readable or understandable. Basically, your posts are written like a raging drunk, quasi-literate, dotard.

Should I Retort. Still waiting on your Vote which. I have not received, Did not know fans from one team come against their own. fans. Since where sharing the truth. I think about 5 of you are f ing as hole fans.

Blazersax, are you on the marijuana again?

South Dakota State (3-0) is getting hammered by Kansas 57-28 at halftime.

Speaking of someone apparently on drugs...

Two teams stand out when looking at this bracket—Iowa and Cincinnati—particularly with the Hawkeyes expected to improve upon last season’s rebuilding year and the Bearcats serving as the Wichita State Shockers’ main challengers for the American Athletic crown. But keep an eye on the winner of the UAB-Richmond quarterfinal, as both of those squads will be keen to win a couple of games in the Caymans to serve notice to their respective leagues’ frontrunners.
Quarterfinals

Iowa over Louisiana
South Dakota State over Wyoming

Man, I pray UAB doesn’t go 0-3 in this tournament.

Looks like is basing it on preseason RPI. Uab is one of the lowest ranked.

whether that guy was on drugs depends on when that was written.
before the season started, thats almost exactly how i had it going...i figured we'd go 0-3, based on last seasons overall performance (but hoped for better)
