Duke/North Carolina might be playing at 6 tonight but they won’t be on the main TV for me.   Furman/Wofford should be a good one

Pretty wild that this is the first time since 1960 that Duke and UNC have played each other unranked

Pretty interesting interview with Matt Painter. Said growing up, his entire family was IU fanatics. He was, too. His dad went to Final Fours in '76, '81 and '87 -- and Matt went to the Superdome, too. He said he really wanted to go to IU, and Knight recruited him, but never offered a scholly. Said he'd have been happy just to sit at the end of the bench (and with the Grahams, Chris Reynolds, Damon Bailey, Jamal Meeks, Lyndon Jones -- that's right where he would have been). ... Painter was good friends with Pat Knight growing up.

Typical Indiana kid. IU was just stacked at that time. Painter has done well for himself.

Triple dub for Ayo today vs. Badgers. Whooped em down the stretch. Talk about team identity. Today Wisconsin’s identity was getting monster dunked on. Coffey had to have 10 poster dunks.

75-60 Illinois final.

I think Ayo is better than Garza. Ayo doesn't need to be hidden more than James Blackmon Jr on defense.

purdoodoo shoots the ball pretty well, puts effort in on defense but where they really excel is being able to play extremely physical on both ends without fouling. In the same vein as Wiscy.

Approaching halftime and Nebraska even up at MSU.

Sadly for MSU, the two teams seem to be at a similar level.

I understand the basic reasons why, but it’s still baffling how bad MSU is.

Nice road win for Wofford 

[Uspshoosier 45,975]

That was fast.  Kentucky/Tennessee was tied when I put the kids to bed.  I come back and Tennessee is up 10 with 3 to play 

 

Colorado up 2 on Arizona with 15 sec to go 

[Uspshoosier 45,975]

Colorado shoots 84% from the foul line as a team.    No shocker that leads the nation and currently would set the record for best % for a single year

Hadnt watched Duke or North Carolina all year. Neither having good seasons and no excuse for it. The skill and athleticism is off the chart.

I think Roy is either A) Just done trying or B) He had a lot to work on and the pandemic interfered with that.

Drake down 16 at Valpo with 8:40 to go 

[Uspshoosier 45,975]

Only fitting that the last 2 undefeated teams this year would be the Zags and Baylor.
