Michigan got the first big win under its new head coach, and now has a chance for another one right behind it. Plus the Orlando Invitational gets going, lots of drama in a tournament out west, and a cool story coming out of the big upset in Durham a couple of nights earlier.
On a day where a football team in the same area grabbed everyone’s attention, an ACC team got their first conference win in fine fashion. Plus a healthy win this time around in the Big East, the Hawkeyes seemingly couldn’t miss, and one team continues to dominate of late in a Pac-12 series.
It wasn’t a wild night in terms of results, so an ACC result stood out a little more than it might have otherwise. Plus a team wins with its star playing just three minutes, a Final Four team continues to turn a corner a year later, and a couple of first conference wins come a bit later than expected.
In our latest podcast, we start by looking at the wild night that was, then the Big East and Big 12 consume much of our discussion.
A wild night included surprise results and a conference scoring record broken by the same star who held it before. Plus one SEC team is hard to figure out, a Big 12 team is not in a good place, and an expected dandy out west was just that.
If any St. John’s fans were concerned about this team being a tease once again, the Red Storm did something to help quell those fears, for now at least. Plus one conference splits the difference in wins on the evening, while another that has struggled almost saw another team drop one.
In our latest podcast, we talk about Arizona State’s win over Kansas and how the Sun Devils have carried the flag for a struggling Pac-12, as well as a couple of hot seats out west, a great coaching job in Texas, and a wide-open race for a major honor.
In our latest podcast, we see non-conference play drawing to a close before long and start with a couple of teams losing their first game of the season. Then we go on to how a few conferences shape up, news of a coach returning to action in an overseas professional league, and look ahead to a busy slate of games.
Buffalo’s quest to remain undefeated during their great early run was stopped when they ran into a buzzsaw. Plus another first loss of the season, another hit to a conference that has taken too many, and two Big 12 teams have opposite results in close games.
After Saturday’s loss, what do we make of Kentucky at this point given that they have lost to their toughest opponents while beating up on worse teams? Plus lots of rivalry games were on tap, while one school couldn’t travel for their game and saw it canceled.
