ND/Duke entertaining game today so far.

IU got rolled.

Cincy with a big win over Memphis

[Jay Bee]

Notre Dame with a fierce run.. 60 all with 7:49 left.

Rodney Hood is sooo legit.

Curious what Coach K does with Quinn Cook & Tyus Jones next season. Ayyyy...

I4 losing to Michigan State - Spartans top guys are tough. If they stay healthy.. yeesh, great team. BUT.. on I4.. some are (re-?)framing the season as 'transitional'... wonder if the media will wake up to the Crean buyout if things get worse.

I4 still has plenty of talent and can change certain things up to give them a better chance of winning.. should be a tourney team, IMO, but we'll see...

Kansas State with a huge upset over Oklahoma State.

SDSU with a good win @kansas today. helps MU.

[Spotcheck Billy]

loved watching Wake beat the Tarheels on Sunday - 'Ol Roy's team sure has its ups and downs this year

The Big ? will be interesting.   Can't wait to see how the Bucky/Spartan/Badger triangle shakes out.   No one else there really impresses me.   Boeheim has a whole new league to confuse with his zone.   Duke's lack of inside presence will hurt them over the long run.  Kansas has horses, but have maddening lapses.    We are all frustrated with MU so far.   But if Gardner, Wilson, and Mayo start bringing it every game, MU is not that far from being a NCAA second weekend team.

That triangle will likely work in Wisconsin's favor. Sparty and OSU travel to Madison. Wisconsin doesn't travel to either East Lansing or Columbus. Favorable schedule will be pounced on.

This year is much like last year, no great teams with a small group of very good teams and a large swathe of crap. Similar to Louisville don't be surprised if the Champions struggle a bit early and then roll momentum in late February.

Also as with last year, MU has a chance to do some serious damage due to the lower level of play. Took advantage then but not sure they have it within to take advantage these next eight weeks.

Gret game tonight between Wisonsin and Illinois. Illinois has surprisingly a nice team this year. Go Illini hope they make some noise this year. I think a top 4 finish in the Big 10 is possible this year for them.

Yechh, turned it off in favor of the Blackhawks game awhile ago.

Purdue over Illinois. B10 cannibalizing itself this season

Illinois is bad.

[jesmu84]

Looks like OSU is going to drop another one. This time @nebraska

[jesmu84]

Michigan playing well lately. Just knocked off Iowa.

UMass goes down to unranked Richmond.

SLU continues to win. Anyone wish Larry/Pilarz really would have turned us into them now?

Looks like a good one so far between UW/Minn

[jesmu84]

And down goes Bucky...

and a bonus from Minny (brunette on the left...):

Iowa taking Michigan to the woodshed today. Who the hell wants to win that conference?

Very tough to win on the road.  Would anyone want to play at Nebraska in their new building?  11-1 I think.  Penn State is always a game on the road.  Minnesota, Wisconsin, IU, all tough games at home, goes without saying MSU and OSU.

Nonsense.

Big day in TX to rush the court, hey?

Did Smart cost himself some NBA draft bread by shovin' the old fart honky in the crowd?

Not too, dare I say, "smart."

[jesmu84]

Wisconsin, at home, with an 8 pt halftime lead against a depleted MSU.
