In our latest podcast, we talk about a rivalry game in the Big Ten, a wide-open ACC aside from one powerhouse, one conference that appears to be doing official reviews better, as well as two undefeated teams left and a couple of shockers in the past week.
We conclude a league-by-league look at the biggest surprises of the season’s first two months, plus a recap of Saturday’s action including Kentucky outlasting Louisville, Cal State Fullerton stuns UCLA and UC Riverside’s improbable comeback.
In our latest podcast, we look at the two big results from a wild night that show once again that there will be a lot of teams in the top spot. We also look at scoring difficulties and what may be behind them, as well as a triumphant return to action for one young man and an ACC that isn’t as deep as usual.
A wild night of basketball started off that way as two highly-ranked teams went down, one to a team many had mixed thoughts about before the season. Plus close calls in Waco and Boulder, and a few other results on a light night include a buzzer-beater.
There were a few games of interest on Friday night, especially one that opened a new arena and for a while looked like history might repeat itself before a dramatic ending. Plus early conference games, a rivalry renewed in Rhode Island goes to the home team, and the Spartans take another hit on the perimeter.
In our latest podcast, we look at a big game in the Big Ten/ACC Challenge as it continues on, then look back at a couple of big tournaments and who won them. Also, we look at some big news out of Georgetown that isn’t so good, and look ahead to conference games coming up.
The Big Ten/ACC Challenge had a couple of its headline games on tap, and both were convincing wins for the ACC school though the series is all tied up. That, and a few other notes from Tuesday night.
A breakout performance against a stout defense looked like it might be enough for a big win, but it was not meant to be. Plus a couple of mid-majors break through, the Huskies were hot a little west of home, and a pair of Cardinals may be returning soon.
Opening night was as good as advertised, led by the big doubleheader in New York where the nightcap belonged to one freshman in particular. Plus a few road wins lead some close ones, a couple of mild surprises, and some major league blowouts with non-Division I schools.
In our latest podcast, off-court news takes precedence, from more allegations of possible payments to players to coaches’ lawsuits and late coaching changes.
