Would anyone like to discuss Evansville Purple Aces basketball?

It is November 25. College basketball is back today.

Messy breakup with college basketball in March. Now it’s calling me Thanksgiving week to “see how I’m doing”? I don’t think so.

Everyone gets one game to make their best "classic late arriving Yum Center crowd" or "looks like no one wanted the corporate tickets tonight" jokes. After that, we're moving on.

Louisville twitter: We waited so long, college basketball is back! So excited!

*game starts*
Louisville twitter: CAMERA ANGLE! I AM SO MAD!

It’s early, but Evansville appears to lead college basketball in players who look like dentists who voted for Trump.

Ah, I see they are using the Live 95’ camera angle for this game

I’m happy to be here and even happier that college basketball will be played, but this is even weirder than I anticipated. pic.twitter.com/Sl3c9hoW0c

This is going to be the first Louisville Men’s Basketball Game without Ryan McMahon in 9 years.

Getting ready for the start of year number TWENTY, as part of @LouisvilleMBB broadcast team. Not courtside but good sight lines and just glad to be able to broadcast college Bkb!

With the great @paulnrogers1.
Here we go! pic.twitter.com/rNv5R5Ay0P
After an entire offseason and huge, emotional, intense pre-game buildup, I'm so, so glad that ESPN producers managed to miss the tip-off.

The crowd noise sounds like a vacuum cleaner in the other room
— Trevor Joelson (@MountTrevorest) November 25, 2020
FYI, this camera angle is here to stay for the 2020-21 season inside the Yum! Center. Tyra said during the media tour earlier this week that it was to keep the camera well socially distanced from fans.
— Matt McGavic (@GeneralWasp) November 25, 2020
I don’t think the cameras that bad.

Aint nothin more cathartic than parlaying Paul Rogers game calls into a Kentucky Legends meat commercial oh boy we’re so back
— Malik Williams Stan (@fakechandler_) November 25, 2020
Me: it's absurd they are going to try to play this game, there absolutely should not be any crowd in there, and it doesn't matter if we are any good because this season will be weird/bad no matter what.

Also me: Sam looks like Cisco out there with his passing, JJ is sleeper ROY

Dre Davis just pushed David Johnson into a foul because he missed a rotation. You call it one thing, I call it leadership.

Quick under-8 update: the shots are hitting but my “Evansville is not even trying to defend its 2019 Super Bowl trophy” jokes are not for some reason

They just played Joker and the Thief in an nearly empty arena. Might be the saddest I've been during the pandemic.

There's 7:55 left to go and I just realized David Johnson has no points.

My passion for U of L basketball waned for a bit, but I'm happy to say it's being revived. My wife and I are expecting, and like all to-be parents I've started to think about what I'm going to share with them, and with U of L basketball brings that "type of emotion."

UofL has had two players forget to take their mask off when they came into the game. I don't know why that's so funny to me.
