On a day where football took center stage, a school known for its success on the gridiron saw continued success on the hardwood thanks to a guy who can just coach. Plus the Spartans get a big win in the nation’s capital, a few other results of note, and one big tournament announces its field for next year.
Oklahoma State continued what has been a pretty good week for the Big 12 in winning tournaments, though they are being chased. Plus a great week for a first-year coach, the Blue Demons remain undefeated, and a late game was as good as advertised.
Campbell’s 5-foot-9 guard Chris Clemons has become a must-watch player, and nearly brought the Camels back to upset Georgetown-were it not for Trey Mourning. Plus, Ja Morant & Charlie Brown deliver prize individual performances and Cincinnati wins the Emerald Coast Classic.
For the second time in three days, a big-time matchup for a tournament championship was at least as good as advertised. Plus several more tournament final matchups are set, a concerning development in Nashville, and a first loss of the season in a blowout.
The most telling game of the day had one team pulling out another where they seemed vulnerable and it was one that got away for their opponent. Plus tournament action heats up, with a few surprises as a day off looms for many of them.
Baylor and Butler continue to win even as they look to be a bit down, showing their staying power. Plus a few more tournaments continue, a couple end, and a Wildcat has to have an injury checked out further.
The ACC just might be ready to become the juggernaut it was expected to become. Plus more tournament action, including finals set, and one team with potentially another significant injury.
