#1 in a bit of trouble

[OrlandoCuse]

I nominate Syracuse University for future participation in this Orleans Casino/Las Vegas Invitational tourney. I'd LOVE to visit the City of Sin to watch my beloved Orange participate in a Turkey Day tourney of this kind.

Or the Bahamas tourney, now that its better than Maui.

Yes, but Atlantis is very expensive, and that casino is the only game in town. At least you have options in Vegas.

Just goes to show EVERYONE is vulnerable in todays game of college basketball. It's not so much a matter of if you are going to lose, it's just a matter of when and how often. UNLV, 4 returning staters/seniors played with great poise and focused on each possession. Great win for a once great program which is back on the rise.

13 threes. any team without an extended zone in their arsenal would have went down.

Funny thing is, this is barely considered a quality "$" win for UNLV on RealTimeRPI with UNC way down there at #90. But damn, what a great performance by the Rebels.

Looked like most of those threes were wide open too. I guess Roy Williams doesn't preach "close out on shooters"...maybe GMac can give him some advice on this topic?

LOL, do you really think UNC will be hovering around #90 in the RPI all year?

They will be in the top 10 by mid January.

Did Roy pull his starters with 21 seconds left and admit defeat?

Lol...hell no. I know they'll be up there in no time. It's just funny to think about with the current RPI.

First time I've looked at the RPI this year, and found it rather surprising we were #1!!!!

Fun times. Let's hope we can maintain a top 10 RPI all year long.

Pulled them because he knew the court was getting stormed. He made it as easy as possible for his players to get to the locker room. Rowdy fans are less likely to go after a walk-on.

The most overrated head coach on the face of the planet bar none.

Might be our football coach.

Sry, drunk anger post.
