SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 14
State Farm Tip-Off Classic: LSU vs. Baylor 12:30 ESPN2
State Farm Tip-Off Classic: Penn State at Texas 3:00 ESPN2

Wow, two incredible games of basketball Sunday. I do think Texas topples Mazzante-less Penn State, but that first game will be a doozey to watch.....
I'm not going to even try guessing that one.....better get the three best conditioned refs out there though.

LSU 76, Baylor 69 -- LSU's superior backcourt strength plus Augustus will puncture the Bear balloon.

Texas 77, Penn State 62 -- The Longhorns will be tack sharp today

Also...in WNIT action

Notre Dame 72, Nebraska 60 -- The Husker forwards are nothing compared to Batteast.

Texas concerns - Texas will probably be without Kala Bowers who continues to suffer from intestinal disease of some sort. Nina Norman is limited by a knee injury. She has been coming off the bench for about 20 minutes. She has been playing well but not shooting well.

The Lady Tigers said their concerns were their inability to rebound, get to the free-throw line and limit turnovers.

"If we block out and rebound like we did tonight we'll get beat (by) 40 and that's not an exaggeration," LSU coach Pokey Chatman said of her team's matchup with Baylor. "They're just relentless."

Let's see ..... I've got the folding table set up by the TV with 3 loads of wash to fold and another load in the washer and I've got the exercise bike and treadmill by the TV in the 'gym' corner of the family room. Looks like I'm ready for an afternoon of basketball watching......

:D Let's get it on Big 12!!!!!!!!!!
