Feast week is here. Day basketball starts at 12:30. Yale/Green Bay in Paradise Jam on espn +

Kansas St had a 20 + lead on California and let them get back in the game late. They also should have lost at home to Tulsa. Tulsa was up 5 with 40 sec to go. Stop Hagerty and IU should be fine. KSU plays Nebraska tonight in the finals of the Hall of Fame classic on Peacock at 9:30 if anyone wants to watch them

I mean this crazed fanbase hadn’t seen an IU team hit more than 10 threes in 3 consecutive games since 2016. Give them that in your first 3 games of your Indiana coaching career and you are going to some hungry fans wanting more. lol.

The top looks good however the middle looks as crowded as it has been. I’m even too teams like Michigan are struggling. Purdue, Illinois and Michigan State are the only 3 teams so far in the B1G that have stood out. Others have struggled with lower competition and should be lucky they won those games and others just haven’t played anyone yet to get a gauge of where they are just yet Feast week will give some amassers

Not surprised a team with all new players that have only played 5 regular season games struggled in some games. Personally I think this is the norm in college basketball for teams that bring in a new team each year. IU looking as good as they did in the first couple games probably changed people’s expectations on where IU was early in the year. Most picked IU middle of the B1G and most on here said they were a border line tourney team and some thought they were not a tourney team at all. Still won by 20 and played a terrible game where one of your best players played like crap. Effort needs to get better and I think it will. I think some of these guys still are playing like they are on a non B1G team. Playing at IU or any power conference you have to play hard every night. Bigger stage with bigger expectations. They better bring effort Tuesday because Kansas St is physical and has a shot maker that can go for 40 on any giving night. Luckily they played a crap team and got away with it but for IU to be successful this year their main guys that got the majority of the NIL money are going to have to play like it. If not they are going to lose some games. In a 30 + game season a team probably has 5 games where they play above where they are and 5 games below where they are as a team. It’s the middle 20 that show what a team is made of

Wake up 5 early in the second half over Texas Tech. If Wake holds on then Colvin will play against his old team in the finals. Kansas st up 2 over Miss st in the first half. Winner gets Nebraska tomorrow

In a game where no one watched because it was on BallerTV, Incarnate Word beats Southern Indiana in the boardwalk battle and will play the winner of High Point/UIC that just tipped off

Marquette will probably end up beating Purdue and balance out these early losses

As long as they are in the NET top 50 at the end of the year then it’s all good

Maryland pulled away in OT. Low majors and mid majors choking on the road at a high major after being up most the game is always going to be a thing. So many opportunities wasted by teams in the last minutes of a game. Like clockwork every year

Zona is your number 1 overall seed as of today. 3 of their 5 wins. @Uconn, ucla, Florida

Maryland hit a 3 to send it to OT

ISU wins it at home over La Tech

Maryland down 5 to Mt St Mary’s with 3:18 to go. Buzz just got a big commit from an in state 5 star kid today as well

Michigan up 6 at half over Middle Tennessee

San Diego St lost in 2OT to Troy, Arkansas and Washington both should have lost last night. No matter the amount of money paid for a roster college basketball still finds a way for the small schools to compete and I’m here for it all. There will always be kids overlooked. Something special about teams with less talent going into a place a competing their butt off. Delivering. Wish it was a little easier in the night so I could of watched some of them live however the next day replay will do

Not really. They just got outplayed for the entire game. A lot of hero ball between the guards. Not much offense ran

Washington wins in 2OT. Southern had a 5 pt lead in the first OT with 30 sec to go and then did what low major teams do to not get the upset. Fouled a 3 pt shooter and missed a FT late.

Washington down 12 to Southern with 3 min to go in the first half

Maybe Duncomb pulled him down

Yeah. Not sure what Pringle was doing. Duncomb didn’t do anything on purpose. Arkansas up 1 with 12 sec to go. We shall see if they call anything excessive on that

Winthrop up 1 with 35 sec to go. Bad last couple of possessions that every small team makes when they are up 4 or 5 against a high major with under a min to go.

Duncomb has taken it to Brazil the last 2 times on offense

Winthrop up 5 with 1:26 to go

Arkansas tied it up and the. Winthrop comes down and buries a 3 with 3:12 to go.
