    It might be a top 10 matchup. Did 'Nova lose this week? If they didn't, it's going to be a really good game. It looks like UConn is starting to come together as a team and getting a lot of help from Napier, Oriakhi, and Smith to help keep the pressure somewhat off of Kemba.

    oh my god---i saw pictures of that somewhere about a month ago. what a disgrace. the article i was reading was saying this is the future and more teams will try out shit like this.

    i'm old school. give me the boston garden's court or the old spectrum court. you don't need anything fancy.

    I was very happy when Temple went back to the simplified court a few years ago. They had this big ugly thing all the way out to the 3-pt arc.

    Not college, but the Sixers simplified court is pretty sweet too.

    I was reading about that Oregon court - just hideous. That school is crazy with all their uniforms & such.

    Just watched the Sportscenter not top 10 from yesterday online and figured Roscoe Smith would be #1.

    What a complete choke job by Marquette. Buycks is a moron, hold on to the ball and let them foul you at the end. Also terrible coaching to have Cadougan and his 44% FT shooting in the game when it's on the line. Complete choke job.

    yeah temple's court looks so much better now.

    the sixers court...eh, they should have just made it look more like it did back at the spectrum. the out of bounds area should be red. too much blue going on with that court for my liking. i think the blue is a shade lighter than it was back in the day too. i don't like the overly huge logo at half court either.

    back to the big east----marquette/louisville....WOW!

    nice rebound today at home against Notre Dame for St. John's. If you're flipping through channels, Gus Johnson is doing West Virginia-Purdue on CBS now.

    Yep. My friend said a lot of students were lining up outside Gampel last night for the game.

    love Gus Johnson but see no point in the non-conference non-rivalry games once league play starts. i'd rather see West Virginia play someone in conference.
