Re: Game #6: Auburn University
I was expecting a rapid improvement for Powell this year simply because Bobby Hurley is now on the coaching staff. Being that it hasn't happened, either A. my expectations were too high and it is a work in progress, or B. Powell just doesn't possess the skill set to be the PG we all want him to be. ...

There's your answer. Not reviewable.The officials may also check if the shot was made before the expiration of the shot clock, but only when such a situation occurs at the end of a half or an overtime period.

Re: College Player Scores 138
You can watch the full game on Grinnell's official athletic website - I couldn't make it through five minutes. Just horrible basketball. Also of note, there were 26 additional shots taken by players on his team - 134 shots total!

For next year, they'll have four players to fill two spots (PF and C): Aaman, Hare, Biruta, and Onyekaba. Martin could also see time at PF, but looking for another guy in that area isn't the worst idea. Aaman works hard but is a bit limited in the talent department, and Hare is a giant question mark...

Good question, GONZO. First determinate here is margin of win by UMass. Your bet shows a 10 point margin, Billyboy shows a 14 point margin. So if UMass beats URI by 13 points or more, Billyboy is the winner. If UMass wins by 11 points or less, you are the winner. The problem is the margin differenc...
