That Iowa team looks like it's arse but you know they're gonna play us like it's the Super Bowl and Sandfort will hit 10 3s.

Geez, checked in on the Okie State/Green Bay game. New coach Doug Gottleib has sweated completely through his shirt. Impressive.
I'm sure he wants that win BADLY. Hell he pretty much begged for the OSU job I think their last 2 openings there.
Damn Baylor Gonzaga why you gotta start so late?

The Devries era at WVU starts out with a win. Took a 21-0 lead and never looked back. 3's rained down from everywhere--so refreshing to watch after huggie ball.
WVU has a few players. should be much improved over last year's disaster.
Tucker Devries and Javon Small would start for most big 12 teams.

I think you have found a good coach. May take a little time for him to get a footing for recruiting and such, and get up to speed with the level we play in the Big 12.
That was a game that I would have 100% watched if it wasn't that late. As it turned out, glad I didn't stay up. It felt like a lot of Baylor's ranking was respect for their body of work over the last few years. They're very talented, but they have a lot of key losses.
Dang, Baylor losing by 40 wasn't on my card. They follow up with playing Arkansas which I think is Top 10 good. Woof.
UCF looked good.
Texas....lol
Looking forward to UNC - KU and Auburn - Houston this weekend.
really like this time of year!

Media/fans: "Start of college bball sucks, no one plays anyone, these games are terrible."
Scott Drew: takes his team of transfers/freshman into a frenzied crowd on the road against a loaded and experienced Zags team and gets drilled by 40.
Media/fans: "Wow, Baylor isn't as good as I thought they were, they have holes to fill, this wasn't a good look"

I will give him credit for throwing them into the fire. Those teams typically grow up pretty fast and are a tough out in march. Izzo historically does this to his teams.
the difference is losing by 40. We will see how they come back against Auburn.
They are basically getting 2 Elite 8 games back to back to start the season.
