Ties it, as you alluded. But this group of nine straight also contains UNC, 1985-93.Is that the record? I think Duke did it from 98-06 also 9?

Meh, cheating scandal.Ties it, as you alluded. But this group of nine straight also contains UNC, 1985-93.
UNC is also playing some truly shitty basketball at the moment.. not sure how much it has to do with MSU at the moment. Hubert Davis needs to teach some of these guys in the low post how to play defense..and maybe take a charge once in a blue moon.Every tournament, I'm reminded not to bet against Izzo, and by the next year I forget and pick them to lose in the first round again.
Three previous seasons:Every tournament, I'm reminded not to bet against Izzo, and by the next year I forget and pick them to lose in the first round again.
He’s only good as an underdog.Every tournament, I'm reminded not to bet against Izzo, and by the next year I forget and pick them to lose in the first round again.
About the worst start UNC could have had and they're down by one. Really hard to tell how good any college team is at the moment.Three previous seasons:
2021: lost in the first four play-in
2022: lost in the second round
2023: lost in the sweet 16
Not exactly a totally stellar record the past three years. One sweet 16 is all.
The four previous NCAA Tourney appearances:
2016: lost in first round
2017: lost in second round
2018: lost in second round
2019: lost in final four
So in Izzo's last seven tournaments, he's made one Final Four, two Sweet 16s, and been eliminated before the Sweet 16 four times.
It's not a terrible bet to bet against Izzo in the NCAA Tournament lately. Maybe they have a good run in them this year. Who knows.
I could have included more context—-I really didn’t think they would beat Mississippi state, although the SEC is proving to be not so good.UNC is also playing some truly shitty basketball at the moment.. not sure how much it has to do with MSU at the moment. Hubert Davis needs to teach some of these guys in the low post how to play defense..and maybe take a charge once in a blue moon.
Edit: they have lost in the first or second round 5 of the last 7 tourneys...
Anyone done longer? Asking for a friend LOLTies it, as you alluded. But this group of nine straight also contains UNC, 1985-93.
Heh, nope, that’s it, that ties the record.Anyone done longer? Asking for a friend LOL
They're going to be a really tough outIowas State really makes you use a lot of energy on offense.
The only prayer Texas has is for this to be the ugliest game possible.Ugly start to Texas/Tennessee
4-3 after five is a good startThe only prayer Texas has is for this to be the ugliest game possible.
Feel like college basketball now is even more about streaks.. It's always been about that to an extent, but now with how many players leave early it feels like games can change very quickly.I really thought UNC was in big trouble the way they started and the way MSU started, but it totally switched in the last eight minutes of the first half.
Agreed.It’s still in his hand after it hits the State defender.
Yeah, and not just for a moment but for like a while.It’s still in his hand after it hits the State defender.
Ncaa officiating has been less than stellar this tournamentWhere’s the backcourt violation, you crooks?
