Zags up 6 with a min to go.  Looks like they are going to hold on

Watcha think if we end up facing them in the Battle 4 Atlantis?

It will be good for the SOS.  Definitely need to play them with the non con schedule IU has.   I think the Zags are one of the best teams in the country so I wouldn’t expect an IU win.

Could be a rough year for the Smellermakers.

Will Berg is.....not good.  I know that Painter loves to play his seven footers but if Caleb Furst can't start now, I have no idea why he stayed there four years.

Might be worth mentioning that Will Berg has now played in 66 minutes of college ball and at 7'2", he hasn't blocked a single shot.

North Florida maybe a candidate for this year's Florida Atlantic?  3-0 now with road wins at South Carolina and Georgia Tech.  Will also play road games at Georgia, Nebraska, and Florida.

Yeah they lost by 2 to Wake who is projected to finish 3rd in the ACC in Greensboro,NC.  I’m sure Michigan travels well but I’m sure it felt like a home Wake game

It will be interesting. From the game I saw their guards were always going to drive the train. Jacobsen had some potential but wasn’t going to dominate any big ten games. Going smaller with furst seems like a good move to me be painter has him squarely on the bench. Painter loves him a “rim protector “ every bit as much as woody.

I just looked at their schedule. Holy crap it is tough. They better get it together quick.

They really are now. That Jacobsen kid could be really good. But they have to trust Berg now because I don't think Painter wants to play someone under 7-3.

Berg is incredibly slow. He has quite literally never blocked a shot during a college game.They’re going to have to rely on Furst or Burgess; probably Furst.

These ESPN+ announcers on the Notre Dame game rival the B1G+ announcers in deep cable excellence.

Might be the year they finally drop a non-conference game. I envy it, though. That's the kind of schedule we should be playing.

Bama’s non con schedule is ridiculous in a good way.   I doubt you can find a harder schedule for this year

Yale’s Samson Aletan has taken two total shots in two games for Yale.

Tonight he has 11 points in the first 15 game minutes. Guess what position he plays for Yale.

Yup; he’s the guy that’s being guarded by the three Puredoo centers.
