One Big East team that had some non-conference success has continued to find ways to lose in Big East play, and did so again on Monday night. Plus a couple of different TV game results, two teams have at it when the game ends, and another conference comes out in support of something with transfers.
A battle for second place was easily the best of the big TV games on the night, with the winning team getting a big boost from an emerging role player. Plus a mismatch in the Big 12, a clear leader in the Patriot League, and a Cyclone is done for the season and perhaps his college career.
The greatest rivalry in the sport delivered again, though the Tar Heels would love to have it back – especially at the free throw line. Plus the Hurricanes get two players back but lose another one.
In our latest podcast, we’re joined by Stadium insider Jeff Goodman and talk about a number of subjects, especially the state of the game. Later, we look at a long losing streak that came to a halt, a team that still has a chance to run the table, and what games to look forward to.
In our latest podcast, we start with the Big 12/SEC Challenge, then look at Baylor and how they stayed on top of a relatively stable poll, a few conference races, and how some national awards appear to shape up.
Can the ACC picture for the NCAA Tournament get any more murky? Plus no surprises in the Big Ten despite one team without key players, rallies in the SEC and a health concern postpones a couple of games.
Is North Carolina turning a corner all of a sudden, and before Cole Anthony comes back? Plus a tough road loss in the Big Ten, one team stays winless in its conference, and a key Wolverine will be missing on Tuesday.
Not many results were all that surprising on Wednesday night, but one in the American Athletic Conference was a big surprise. Plus little separation remains in a couple of conferences, suspensions are handed out, and a powerhouse in one conference takes a big injury hit.
In our latest podcast, we talk about a couple of road wins that had never happened before, plus an oddity in the ACC, how several conferences including the Atlantic 10 are shaping up after recent action, and a coach getting fired on Monday despite no big off-court issues.
In a short time, a lot changed at Clemson without even considering the football team’s tough night on Monday night. Plus a dramatic ending in the Big Ten seems par for the course, an injured star looks just fine in a big win, and the Buckeyes and Jayhawks win while short-handed.
