College Basketball 2023

[LinvilleGorge]

Is this the return of the old school "5"? The two teams in the title game are driven by old school 5s. These guys aren't highly sought after by the NBA anymore but they can dominate college ball. That's like the best case scenario if you're a college program. We can throw NIL money at you and the NBA isn't beating down your door. 

Give me all the old school bigs and undersized shooters I can get.

I do think the two best teams are facing off for the title. Kinda feels like '05 with UNC vs. Illinois though I honestly think both of those teams were better. 

But I do think UConn is 10-12 points better than Purdue. I think they're better everywhere.

Imagine hanging in there but still losing by 14.

Perfection vs. GOAT status.

Iowa off to a good start.

The women’s game is better than the men’s game right now… it had to be said.

Joking aside, the women's game has been on the upswing for a few years now. So have the ratings, unlike the men's game.

South Carolina is a lot bigger and a lot more athletic.

Should have prefaced, the college game is in better shape.

Caitlin Clark loafs back on D a lot.

This feels about like the Bama/Purdue game. One team shooting well from 3 and the other keeping pace by playing in the paint.

Bama/UConn but I was literally thinking the same thing.

Nice way to end the half for SC

Clark’s ball handling skills need to improve quite a bit.

If she had Fulwiley’s ball handling skills she’d be unstoppable.

Yeah. Don't know why I was thinking Purdue.

Oh, and just a general comment about the women's game, it looks like they sold out the arena too.
