Could SMU be a program for the long haul, beyond the days of a big-name coach? Plus the absence of a starter isn’t a problem in Fort Worth or Tuscaloosa, the Fighting Irish take another hit to their depth, and a historic loss in the nation’s capital.
In the early going, there’s a surprise co-leader in one major conference after Sunday. Plus more Pac-12 madness with one school picking up a second big win, a good in-state matchup elsewhere, and a referee considers moving on.
Wichita State and Cincinnati were poised to be the hottest things going in the American Athletic Conference this year, and both have generally delivered early in the season, if going through minor hiccups. Who else is going to join them at the top? Is it possible it could be…Tulane?
Taking a look across the country late in December, as many have moved past final exams now and conference play nears…
The season is here, and opening night provided us with a range of outcomes to think about.
It was a decidedly different year in the Pac-12 from the prior one, but there were some good highlights in the month of March and next season could see a decidedly different look to the standings.
Oakland makes the Horizon League race a little more interesting as it winds down. Also, for the second straight Friday, it was a good night to be a road team.
Tuesday marks the 39th day of the college basketball season. Incredibly, almost every NCAA Division I team has either played one-third of its regular season schedule, or is coming up on the mark in the next few days.
The Pac-12 had quite a season and has a tough act to follow. Perhaps more notable is that the landscape is changing and a new program appears to be carrying the flag right now.
It was quite a night in the NCAA – or is it the ACC – Tournament. Plus one coach gets hurt in his team’s win, more coaches are on the move and one decides to stay put.
