    Friday Degenerate Board – 2/3/17

    I can’t hide anymore. After the last week of gambling, where we took a sizeable hit, I fled the country. I contemplated the meaning of life, the disappointment I put my fellow degenerates through, and if this column should even continue. Who am I kidding? I didn’t give a shit because like I always say, […]

    There’s always a week, every year, that chaos rules college basketball. Last week was that week.

    We’re Not That Drunk 2.03: Reid Forgrave says to love your-Self

    Well the flu bug is starting to make its way around TGS headquarters. Don’t be discouraged though as college basketball analyst, Reid Forgrave carries this wonderful episode of We’re Not That Drunk. The guys discuss everything from gambling odds on the National Championship to what drinks certain college coaches prefer. As always, the guys put […]

    Consider this article a preemptive strike on what is almost certain to happen next week. You see, Creighton lost at home to Marquette – a team that’s ranked #32 on Kenpom. This loss, coupled with the loss of star point guard Mo Watson, was enough to drop the Blue Jays nine fucking spots. One game. […]

    Baylor is now the number one team in the country, and one of just two undefeateds (Gonzaga). I’m totally fine with this and have argued in favor of the Bears for weeks, however, they were less than impressive last week in their climb to the top. Elsewhere in the country, the ACC is starting to […]

    It appears that some AP voters have made a New Year’s resolution to not be so awful anymore, but unfortunately that trend hasn’t continued for the majority of folks. You see, The Baylor/Kansas conundrum finally got fixed by a UCLA loss of all things. All of those #1 votes that were on UCLA went to […]

    POLLitically Incorrect – 12/28/16

    As you’ve probably noticed, college basketball doesn’t typically play any meaningful games the week before/of Christmas. Most teams try and beat down an inferior opponent and send their players home for an extended break before starting conference play. Surely you can see how this would make for a really boring column, so I’ve decided to […]

    Well last week we bitched and moaned that Baylor needs to be ahead of Kansas. Guess what? The voters still screwed it up, but I firmly believe we got through to a few. Baylor was 16 votes behind the Jayhawks yesterday, and they closed the gap to 11 votes this week – yes I’m taking […]

    There’s so much proof that rankings are meaningless, but they’re fun and give us a talking point. So here we are. Baylor, having the best resume of any team to date, has six first place votes while Kansas has none. You’d think that would be enough for them to be ranked ahead of KU, but […]

    Friday Degenerate Board – 12/9/16

    Lesson learned, don’t bet against the Lions. I bet against them to win the NFC North, and bet a bit on the Saints to win straight up last week. The Eagles are the exact opposite – the Eagles are bad. It should have been expected in Carson Wentz’s rookie season, but their hot start and […]
