biggiest take away is through 6 games IU in B1G games only has the best defensive efficiency in the league.   Would have never guessed that.   Crazy 

Definitely not what I would’ve expected

Tennessee/Florida got moved up to 5 pm because of weather.  It’s on ESPN2 

[Uspshoosier 46,397]

Samford/Western Carolina at 6 on cbsports network.  2 of the best from the SoCon this year.   Both teams 15-2 

[RaceToTheTop 26,313]

Florida at Tennessee getting an early start tonight due to weather.  Tennessee up 22-11 midway through the first half.

[RaceToTheTop 26,313]

Knecht had a string in the first half where he scored 20 points in a row for Tennessee in the first half.  Only had 2 before that and 2 since but Tennessee is up 63-51 with 11 minutes left

[RaceToTheTop 26,313]

Knecht now up to 29 with 9:37 left.  11/17 from the field and 4/4 from three.

Kid going to make a decent NBA player.

Seems like they picked coaches with the worst results but not IMO the worst hires.  They had Tom Crean's hiring at Georgia being the 20th worst hire.....but Georgia got a guy who had been to the final four and had a #1 team at difference stops.  Seems on the surface that's about as good as Georgia could get.  Results weren't there, but it wasn't a bad hire.

ISU up 14 at half.  Nice run at the end of the half

Nice road win for Samford

Been doing bracketology long enough to know that mid majors have an uphill battle when it comes to at-large bids but Indiana St is absolutely good enough for one of the 36 at-large spots.   I hope the committee feels the same way if they don’t win Arch Madness.   This team deserves to make the tourney

TCU up 2 at Cincy with 1:02 to go 

nc state just tied up wake with 2:30 to go.  They have been down all game and their coached got tossed by High Knees in the first half

Cincy hit a 3 to go up 1 and then TCU comes down and buries a 3 to back up 2 with 18 sec to go

 This game is officially wild.    lol.  Cincy ties it up TCU fouls inbounding it.   Cincy misses both FTs and fouls on the FT.   TCU at the line with 2.2 to go
