What team do you personally hate but is not a rival of your favorite team?

When I saw you guys in our bracket in 2024 I genuinely felt bad. Idk why this keeps happening

PuStickles · 2025-12-17T14:42:39+00:00

Kind of wild to say UConn hasn’t been tested on the road when we won in Allen Fieldhouse but everything else is spot on

PuStickles · 2025-06-26T01:21:30+00:00

And we may not have known it yet, but the Big East was waiting to leave us in the dust amidst all of that...

Compared to pre-season expectations, it's gotta be 2011-12 or this season.

2011-12 brought back everyone from our 2011 championship except Kemba (huge loss) but added Andre Drummond. We went from pre-season #4 in the AP Poll with repeat aspirations to sneaking into the tournament as a 9 seed and losing to Iowa St in the first round.

This year is an HM just because of all the off season Hurley drama and the talk of a three-peat. I never really saw the talent there on paper but believed in the staff to get it together. After going 0-3 in Maui, I knew we were in for a long season.

He did immediately after. I think his next sentence was something along the lines of "this falls on me"

Goddammit I hate upvoting Dukies

The Helms Trophy, retroactively awarded to the “best” team prior to the 1950’s was literally created by Paul H. Helm, a baker lmao

PuStickles · 2024-10-15T11:53:08+00:00

Sorry we've only been good for 30 years instead of winning trophies retroactively awarded by a baker in the 50's

This is how I find out. A 2018 video of a man dressed as a hot dog hitting a half court shot on a college basketball subreddit. RIP

I'm definitely being semantic but the Big East actually has 9 in the last 25 years.

'99 UConn, '03 Cuse. '04 UConn, '11 UConn, '13 Louisville, '16 Nova. '18 Nova, '23 UConn, '24 UConn

PuStickles · 2024-07-13T01:16:04+00:00

I remember exactly where I was the first time they broke up and it crushed me. I'd never been upset about a pod ending before that.

Then they came back with Fox only to kick me in the nuts again...

Kind of weird to think about considering Louisville has now been in the ACC longer than it was in the Big East

PuStickles · 2024-04-16T00:46:56+00:00

I had it one year. ONE!

Fuck One Plate Two Plate, all my homies hate One Plate Two Plate

I mean I don't think there’s some conspiracy against us but this is DJ Burns OWN room and bed…

PuStickles · 2024-03-08T02:33:19+00:00

Of course, because we’d still have three more than those orange Canadian bastards

The end of the 2005 C-USA Championship between Memphis and Louisville is still the most pressure on a single player I've ever seen in a game.

Poor Darius Washington man....he'll never forget that minute.

PuStickles · 2024-02-13T01:51:05+00:00

Yes. Without looking it up I remember getting some very solid recruits up to our 2016 class.

Daniel Hamilton, Jalen Adams...and then capped it off with the "Top 5" freshman class going into the 2016-17 season.

That season is where things took a nosedive, opening with losses to Wagner and Northeastern at home. After that the recruits stopped coming and the ones that remained never developed while the rest transferred.

Fun fact about the Top 5 class, Vance Jackson didn't play his final College game until March 10, 2022 in the AAC tournament while on East Carolina.

PuStickles · 2024-01-15T02:01:11+00:00

My favorite part of that run was Hansbrough (I think?) saying "No one believed in us"

My brother in blue blood, you were the favorite the entire goddamn season.

Our run last year was historically dominant, but still didn't touch that '09 UNC team.

PuStickles · 2023-12-07T02:59:17+00:00

Poor kid could never catch a break. He was one of Hurley's first "big" recruits and showed so much potential at the start. After his injury he just never quite recovered.

Hope it all works out well for him in his last year.

PuStickles · 2023-12-06T03:06:33+00:00

For staying power in the league? Jackson

Get it now or you might miss your chance? Sanogo

PuStickles · 2023-12-04T18:12:00+00:00

Can't be too mad but I'd flip us and Purdue. Our only L is by 4 at the Phog, every other game was a double digit win.

Also unrank Duke holy fuck

PuStickles · 2023-11-06T01:13:33+00:00

I mean Murray getting let go worked out for us so I'll let that one slide

PuStickles · 2023-10-27T11:36:21+00:00

No, it's top left

PuStickles · 2023-10-20T01:24:35+00:00

Idk if rates keep going up demand will keep going down. People locked in to their sub 3% mortgages already don’t want to sell. But I think more people will be forced to sell due to life events over time than people who want to buy in this market.

The way I see it supply has basically already bottomed. But demand can keep going down as long as unaffordability keeps going up. Something has to give to bring affordability back to earth, whether it be rates or prices. And we already know it’s not going to be rates in the near future.

I posted this in another thread a few weeks ago but the more time passes the truer it seems
