  1. Boise: 2 games and done guaranteed CSU: probably 2 and done USU: probably 1 and done (has played over its head all year & NCAA officials won't let Osobor get away with barreling over people) UNR: will definitely beat Dayton but very little chance of beating Arizona which will similarly have tons of fans in attendance SDSU: will definitely beat UAB; 50/50 chance of beating Auburn (much as the NCAA committee might hope for an SDSU-UConn rematch, w/o Arop, Mensah, Bradley & Seiko, there's no way this team beats UConn) UNM: racist chants don't work for Climpsin fans and Lobos prevail; 50/50 chance of beating despicable Baylor 1+1+0+1+1.5+1.5 = 6 wins is a reasonable expectation from the MWC this year; however, just watch, the conference will nevertheless win just half that many
  2. Why a whopping $595K? This charming spread in California City can be had for a mere $176,000: https://zerodown.com/search/details/8552-hickory-dr-calif-city-ca-93505/40663110
  3. To a man, the pundits opined that UVA didn't deserve to get into the tournament. Particularly for that reason, it's time for the MWC to show its worth and start WINNING games and that begins with CSU.
  4. If they do, they'd be very wrong. I just checked and Clemson's elevation is just 725 feet. Sat amongst a bunch of Lobos on Saturday as I did once before at the MW tournament and as then, your fans were very classy. For that reason and because I detest Climpsin, Go Lobos!
  5. My initial impression was that the game could be a nail-biter. However, in looking closer I see why SDSU is favored by a TD. I expect the Aztecs to come out cold and get behind early as usual with Dutch either substituting early, calling an early TO to scream at them or both but we just have too much depth for UAB. I expect to see a bigly amount of Wolf Packians in SLC. With that support and your two terrific guards, I also see you winning and advancing despite being the lower seed.
  6. Let's see if you still feel the same if the MW's 6 NCAA tournament participants fail to win more than 3 games combined. And yes, I WILL be rooting for all 6.
  7. Saturday night, Fareed Zackaria had an interesting special on the possibility of a red China versus Taiwan war. The consensus was China might do better trying to blockade Taiwan rather than invading it. Although China has been building a lot of weaponry, China supposedly buys almost all of its microchips from Taiwan as 60% of the world's production is manufactured by an off-shoot of Texas Instruments there. As for a Chinese invasion of the US, armies always fight better on their home turf and China has very few battle-tested troops and command officers compared to the U.S. I was unaware of it but the biggest problem Taiwan now has is its far-right nationalist government the ruling party for which seems hell-bent on moving Taiwan back to authoritarianism rather than the democracy it's been over the last couple decades.
  8. Unless you're a MAGAT, Bartiromo has as much credibility as that Britt woman from Alabama.
  9. The TV networks run college sports these days. For football, that's primarily ESPN and Fox. For hoops, basically the entire post-season is run by CBS. Since that includes conference tournaments there is no way CBS is going to allow anything to diminish the ratings by doing something like Dave Rice suggested regardless of how fair that might be.
  10. I think a fifth MWC team will be one of the so-called last four in. Also, if the relevant factors were like they were back when SDSU played in a couple NITs, you guys would get in because you're exciting to watch. However, aren't there a lot less NIT participants these days?
  11. Damn straight it is. A year and a half into Brian Dutcher's tenure as HC, some guys there were saying Dutch needed to be replaced. Prediction: If the Aztecs should lose their next two there will be a poll asking whether Dutch should be on the hot seat next season.
  12. Is virtue signaling some sort of new Christian Reich sect?
  13. Donald Trump: What's not to like?
  14. Hey, you never know. Mentioning Jesus in front of millions of brain-dead Born Aginners could actually help Uncle Joe.
  15. LeDee is understandably not the same player he was a couple weeks ago. It's been a long season and they're asking too much of him on offense. Also, for reasons unknown to me, he has rarely been setting up at the FT line as opposed to almost always posting up in the key. But Martin had the game of his life. Props to him and props to you guys. I hope we get another shot at you in the MW tournament. (Oops, didn't notice you're a UNM fan. Bad luck to you guys today.)
  16. When a reporter said to Burt Reynolds many years ago that the money he was supposedly going to be paid for Smoky and the Bandit 2 was obscene, Burt's reply was something like "Absolutely. The only thing more obscene would be to turn it down."
  17. Decent is a good way to put it. My guess is about 100 grand. However, Keshad was probably making decent money at SDSU too but he's probably making twice as much to play at Arizona where the cost of living is about half as high. Both guys are probably headed to Europe (or maybe Japan like Jamal Franklin) where they will make similar dough for 8-10 years. (With endorsements, Franklin has been making north of $1M.)
  18. Yeah, I see Lamont pulling a Keshad Johnson and bailing for real money at a big-time power conference school for his final college season. If he does, more power to him. Lamont has been a great Aztec and, to be frank, his offense, and particularly his FT shooting, has regressed considerably this year.
  19. Boise is just 3-9 all-time in San Diego, it's Senior Night, and Butler, LeDee and Trammell who have endeared themselves to fellow students and alumni will be playing their final game at Viejas Arena. So I'm almost certain you're going to be wrong.
  20. Not sure how relevant ^^ is to the subject of this thread but I enjoyed watching it. That young woman is quite erudite and objective and if she was my daughter, I'd be very proud of her. Also, although I consider myself a liberal, I find college wokeness to be out of control. Question: How often do biological women who have competed in sports at the college level but later realize (if that's the correct term) they are transgender then opt to attempt to compete as a man?
  21. Tied (1-5) Tied CSU and UNM Wyo FSU SJSU AFA
  22. That was a first-rate asinine ruling that is certain to eventually be overturned by less political members of SCOTUS. When you may ask? If Biden wins again this November, possibly as soon as 2028. Because Clarence Thomas is very unlikely to still be on the court by then and if Trump is still alive, he is almost certain to run for president again and he will have been convicted of at least one felony.
  23. Truer words have never been spoken.
