Around SBN: Cal RB Jahvid Best Seriously Injured, Carted Off Field

What to watch: 2/25/09

07_03_07_photo_group_v2_medium

Northwestern at Indiana (6:30 p.m./Big Ten Network)

Attention shoppers: outside today we have...cripple fight. Cripple fight, outside.

Connecticut at Marquette (7 p.m./ESPN)

Go go Golden Eagles.

Notre Dame at Rutgers (7 p.m./ESPNU)

Any shot Rutgers has at finishing last in the Big East hinges on a loss here.

George Mason at UNC-Wilimington (7 p.m./MASN)

Mason has been wildly inconsistent over the last month, but a loss to the CAA's cellar dweller would be shocking.

Kentucky at South Carolina (7 p.m./Raycom/FS South)

Why couldn't this game be at 9? It's been a rough week and I really feel like rooting hard against somebody not out of necessity but out of, you know, revulsion.

South Florida at Seton Hall (7 p.m./SNY)

It's all exhibitions until New York for these two.

Virginia Tech at Clemson (7:30 p.m./ESPN2)

I wonder if Cheick Diakite is any relation to Nouha Diakite. If he is, then my distaste for VT just went up for the first time since the '06 Gator Bowl.

Navy at American (8 p.m./CBS College Sports)

If you read The Miracle of St. Anthony (and you should have) you'll recognize the name Derrick Mercer, who is now the diminutive starting point guard for the first-place American Eagles.

Wyoming at Colorado State (8 p.m./The Mountain)

Drop basketball.

Villanova at Depaul (8 p.m./Altitude)

This is the point where, if you're a Blue Demon fan, you just go ahead and root for the imperfect season and start brainstorming with your buddies about t-shirt ideas.

Iowa at Michigan State (8:30 p.m./Big Ten Network)

I haven't followed the Hawkeyes particularly closely, but every time I catch an Iowa score or highlight segment, it's not pretty. I wouldn't expect tonight to be much different.

Duke at Maryland (9 p.m./ESPN)

On any other night, the "JJ is Redickulous--ly gay" picture would have been a given for this post, but Buzz needs our help, and my priorities are in check.

Kansas State at Missouri (9 p.m./ESPNU)

I fear Mizzou's destiny is to be the well-seeded team everybody has losing in the first round come three weeks from now.

George Washington at Charlotte (9 p.m./MASN)

Charlotte has four A-10 wins, half of them are over the top two teams in the league and a third is over George Washington. I'm not really going anywhere, I'm just saying. 

Mississippi State at Tennessee (9 p.m./Raycom/FS South)

A big game because of...seeding?

Texas Tech at Texas (9:30 p.m./ESPN2)

Gitcha guns up.

UNLV at Utah (10 p.m./The Mountain)

How in the hell did we lose to these guys without Wink Adams?

anybody out there?

watching uconn-marquette?

it pains me to say this, but i think i like buzz. he is the anti-gillispie at halftime, classy and happy to speak with the reporter.

also love marquette’s i’m-not-afraid-of-you strategy. gotta love the little guy showing he ain’t scared. if it’s close in the last 5 i think they pull it out.

anyone?

broken foot

i cant see him playing another game in a marquette uniform

marquette is so up an downth

they throw up wild shots and don’t get any ball movement for 3 minutes, then they can’t miss. they get back in it, then uconn gets the ball and goes on a 10-0 run. i swear that sequence has happened 4 different tiems

by doctorofdunk on Feb 25, 2009 8:27 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

incoherent mess of a post

but you get my point. hope mcneal can avoid his 4th foul in the next two “segments.”

by doctorofdunk on Feb 25, 2009 8:29 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

My God Marquette plays no defense.

It’s like they’ve never even heard of help defense.

by CARD_G6 on Feb 25, 2009 8:39 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

and poor shot selection and spacing on four straight possessions

but if they follow the script of the game, they’ll hit 3 3s here.

let’s hope.

the difference in the game

might be those 3-pt plays off putbacks.

by doctorofdunk on Feb 25, 2009 8:49 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

i'm going to go ahead and saw these refs suck

but not nearly as much and Robinson with his screaming dunks

by Ben Go CARDS on Feb 25, 2009 8:56 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

yeah what a silly call on mcneal there

that has happened in the lane many, many possessions in this game and not gotten called, why call it in the last 2 minutes?

by doctorofdunk on Feb 25, 2009 8:57 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

well i feel bad for James

but i have to believe our chances of beating them just got much better. without 1/3 of what makes them so special, Marquette is really going to have issues with the rest of their schedule

by Ben Go CARDS on Feb 25, 2009 9:16 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

same here

I feel terrible for James. He’s been a helluva player for four years and is very well-liked among the Marquette fans, and he gets hurt at the end of his senior year. Bummer. I also didn’t like to see Dyson go down. Of course, it’s like not we haven’t seen our share of injuries at the Ville.

anyone see that UK final score?

77-59. One step closer to that NIT berth…hahahaha

by twistedwedge on Feb 25, 2009 9:41 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

One of the commentators....

on Game Day this morning said yUK is probably a “lock” for the tournament and that was AFTER they showed the game film of SC beating them. Now that they’ve lost AGAIN, they don’t deserve to go……Bilas was saying this morning that somebody had yUK as an 11th seed BEFORE they played SC….I don’t get it. Loved the loss today; they have almost the same situation in BB that we have in football. I think Gillespie is awful – hope they keep him. hahahahaheheheheh

Re: Kansas State at Missouri

I fear we may see the 2 most over-rated 1-seeds of all time, i.e. Oklahoma and Memphis
