On a busy Saturday with a wide range of matchups and outcomes, it was one of the last games of the night that stood out for its wild ending – and not a good one for a team that started conference play in a really good place. Plus an ill Gator is able to give it a go, which helps them out.
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.
San Diego State remained undefeated and continued one of the season’s best early stories, gritting out a win over recent nemesis Fresno State on New Year’s Day. The Mountain West, American and Southern Conference were among the few busy to start 2020.
Conference play is about to begin in earnest all around the country. How does every conference in Division I shape up after non-conference play has (mostly) completed? We take a look here.
Saturday was a big day with a lot of consequential matchups and results, and we take a look at notes from many of the games here.
The Big Ten/ACC Challenge is in the books, with the Big Ten winning and two ACC teams having scoring challenges. Plus a reversal of result in one rivalry, a big win for a team that’s had a tough few days, and one more team remains undefeated.
Another season is almost here, so it’s time to reflect once more as we finish up our look ahead to the conferences this season.
The Pac-12 champions were expected to have a chance at that before the season, though not quite in the fashion they did it. Plus championship games rule the day, a few more semifinals set the stage, and one more coaching change.
With just two days of games left, the big questions revolve around potential top seeds in the NCAA Tournament and a few potential bid thieves that remain. Plus more coaching news, a couple of players announce plans to transfer, and a different start to the season is ahead for one conference.
Recapping the mass of conference tournament games Thursday, as well as the bubble winners and losers, a list that included mostly losers among those truly on the fence.
