Definitely one of the weaker Maui fields I can ever recall.

But will still be watching.
 
what a weak field

i will NOT be watching
 
Given how Oregon looked last week, Chaminade vs. Oregon could be a close one
 
They're not even playing in Maui.
 
Wisconsin over A&M.
 
Jesus, Butler is terrible. Their average age is like older than the OKC Thunder.

Thought they would surprise this year, guess not.
 
i bought a new laptop a couple of weeks ago and i accidentally set it to the Pacific time zone and i just haven't bothered fixing it

so earlier today i noticed that ESPN had the Notre Dame/St Mary's game listed at 930. I have been clicking on the ND/St Marys game on the streaming website i use furiously for the past few minutes and i kept getting the Bucs/Giants game. I'm thinking "WTF YOU PIECE OF SHIT WEBSITE"

then i realize, you idiot, the game is on at 9:30 PACIFIC, not eastern. so i'm just gonna chat girls up on bumble until the game tips off in two hours

They still got time to figure it out. But I have no idea what people saw in them.

Did they return everyone from last year? Yes. Did they also suck ass last year? Yes.
 
sample size is small and Saint Mary's is a good program, but I'm going to assume ND is not very good

Beat High Point and something called CSUN by a combined 15 points

I would have pegged ND as a tournament team coming into the year. They should be playing better. Disappointing loss. Now they get Chaminade and then either A&M or Butler. SoS is going to take a huge hit by not winning.

ND has been pretty mediocre since Bonzie Colson broke his foot in 2017

ND at Illinois is a very interesting game now
 
Going to be the third straight first half where Oregon shoots under 30%. It’s really hard to believe how bad Oregon is playing

St Mary's is uglying this game up. If Oregon doesn't let it frustrate them they should be okay here.

Dana's track record speaks for itself. Oregon's started slow before and got better as the season went on. That said, this offense is as bad as I've ever seen at Oregon under Altman. This is just a bad basketball team right now.
