Kentucky is getting ready for what could be an even better NCAA Tournament run than last season.

Rutgers, St. John’s Get Attention in a Wild Big East Week
Recent nights have had a couple of wild games in the Big East, with Rutgers’ thrilling last-second win over Villanova and St. John’s taking care of Connecticut.
Hartford Dogged by Offensive Struggles
Offense has been hard to come by all year for Hartford, and Saturday was no different in a crucial part of the game. Although the Hawks looked good at times with their ball movement, shots didn’t go at a key juncture of the game en route to a 61-50 loss at Boston University.
Maryland Can’t Get Over the Hump at Boston College
Maryland has lost several games this season that they were right in, and as a result looks to be square on the bubble. The close losses may add up if they aren’t able to pull out a close game or two in the final weeks.
Yale Must Bounce Back From Missed Opportunity
Yale was so close to making the Ivy League race a little more interesting on Friday night in a tough loss at Harvard. It was a missed opportunity, and now they must bounce back and take advantage of a relatively favorable schedule the rest of the way.
Huge Weekend Looms for ACC’s Five Bubble Teams
Boston College, Clemson, Maryland, Miami and Virginia Tech have plenty of work left to do, and this weekend’s match ups present huge opportunities for nearly all of them.
Flash Mobs and the Soul-Endangering Jimmer Mania
We’ve had a busy week, with another major winter storm wreaking havoc and leaving two teams stranded. Plus, Kansas students have fun in the stands, Jimmer worshiping isn’t cool with all BYU students, and the Big East doesn’t have any Final Four contenders. Wait, what?
Bracket Breakdown: Mock Tournament 1.0
In our first projected NCAA Tournament field of the 2010-11 season, we immediately notice the difficulty in filling out a 68-team field with somewhat mediocre teams.
Not Quite the Season Towson Had in Mind
It’s fair to say that this season hasn’t exactly gone the way Towson coach Pat Kennedy drew it up. After Wednesday night’s 82-78 loss at Northeastern, the Tigers are winless in 2011 and 0-14 in CAA play.
Oliver Injury Gives Hewitt a Lineup Dilemma
The Yellow Jackets’ strength wasn’t size before 6-6 Brian Oliver went down for a few weeks with a thumb injury. Would a four-guard lineup make sense for Paul Hewitt’s team?
