Interesting results from last night.
Sure Michigan State, Maryland and Louisville all won their opening exhibition games -- but against these lesser opponents -- yep, California and Georgetown, but not THE California and THE Georgetown:
State, down by 13 points in the 2nd half, came back to beat Division II Grand Valley State -- 61-57
Maryland struggled to to edge Division II California University (of Pennsylvania) by 79-78
and Louisville barely over little NAIA Georgetown College (of Kentucky) by 94-92
Full Version: Those scary exhibition games
I was following those scores at the bottom of Illinois' Gamecast last night and I just couldn't believe how close some of them were. An MSU fan on another board said that MSU is in some trouble right now, especially with an injury situation.
My Zags bombed Augustana (who??) 89-53 last night. Full house for the exhibition too.
Those are some tight games. Might be tough years for the programs but we will see. I can't wait to see Gonzaga play either. That's my team.
WVU is playing a Division II school but it's a school like 20 minutes away
these games should be pretty much a joke and a nice payday for the opposing teams

T-Daddy,
WVU looked very athletic last night in their 30 point win over Fairmont State.
Coach Beilein will instill WVU's standard high basketball IQ into this freshman dominated team. But, you have got to love this group is highly athletic which is a sharp contrast from thr group of Herber, Pittsnoogle, Gansey, Collins, and others they are replacing. They'll take some L's this year in their growing pains, but I love the look of the team in the coming years.
6-7 Joe Alexander is going to be a dunking athletic machine. He has major hops. He's easy on the eyes too

I'm hoping we make the BE tourney and my real hope is for us to make the NIT
