Are Spurs Fans College Fans?

[Spur|n|Austin]

I keep up with UT and UTSA. Very sad tbh.

Try being a Texas Tech hoops fan I was there while Bob Knight was there though, that was fun. We at least made the sweet 16 then.

Other than my Alma Mater, I don't care for college hoops much besides March Madness.

I just watch my alma mater UTEP(which I currently attend) when they play Memphis.

there was this game in the tournament where i think #2 ucla was playing the adam morrison #3 gonzaga and gonzaga blew this huge lead with like a minute left. kept turning the ball over and just being generally stupid. my roommate said something i'll never forget: "The reason march madness is exciting is because the players suck." whenever i watch a march madness game and it gets exciting, i look for the reasons and frequently it is because one team just doesn't understand how to not blow it.

College basketball is boring unless you are playing in the game.
Watching it on TV (unless you are a Homer) is boring too.

i think that was the year Noah and Horford dominated out of Florida and beat UCLA in the championship. Sadly, im in my 4th year at UCLA and they completely sucked ass my first 3 years there after being perennial contenders prior. Lame how they were good before I gave a about them, and I never got into college ball because they sucked in my time there. Apprently they're doing well now, but I don't bother watching college ball

I watch Texas.

i projectile vomit.


Nothing worse than to watch the Spurs, and then try to stomach a Texas game. Unless one enjoys self initiated acid reflux.

[blkroadrunners]

I'll watch UTSA and maybe UT games every now and then, but the only other time I'll get into colled bball would be during March Madness since I make a few bets.

colorado vs stanford right now. andre roberson.

I don't like college ball either. The shot clock and slow pace is what kills it for me. I also hate how offenses attack the zone in college. They just swing it around the perimeter for 25 seconds, then finally drive to the basket where they will usually miss or get fouled. I also don't understand how many people say that college is all about defense and in the NBA players just don't care. That can be true in some cases, but playing a half-assed zone against teams that don't know how to beat it is not tenacious d by any stretch of the imagination. Kind of an ugly brand of basketball, I'd rather watch my Spurs.

^ agree 100%^

[rascal]

The game got watered down when players started jumping early to the NBA.

lol NCAA BB


Bunch of white guys shooting 3's

One of the few times I've agreed with Lefty. NCAA is just a place guys named Cody, Luke, Tyler and Adam can play and not get their sht blocked / get dunked on. Very boring, especially this year since it's painfully obvious with all the upsets that there is no real talent out there.

Damn, how do you go to UCLA and not attend the games? Student seats are incredible in Pauley.

SpurRaider21, can you give us your take on Shabazz and whether he's going to live up to the hype from what you've seen of him at PP.

Since he's a fellow alum, are/were you a Westbrook fan...he's like the one UCLA guy I can't stand in the league...even more than Matt Barnes tbh.

College ball sucks until march madness.

If players would stay 4 years, it would be better, but still bad, imo.

Strange because I prefer college football over the NFL.

Agreed...college football is far more entertaining than the No Fun League.
