There were a lot of weird results today, per usual for any Saturday in college hoops. But I might need an entire damn 30 for 30 on Iowa State losing by 19 to Kansas State.

Seven. More. Weeks.

It was one hell of a day for teams on the bubble. Teams that I had seeded 35th-47th or among the first five out in my bracket earlier this week went a combined 13-1 today, the only loss being Wake Forest vs. Duke. Xavier and BYU also became a good bit more interesting today.

You know, it’s going to be funny if UNC ends up being the first team out, and the selection committee chair - UNC AD Bubba Cunningham - has to do media rounds, talking about decisions he neither agrees with nor was allowed to vote on.

Unless Stetson can come back from a 37-point halftime deficit against LSU, it's another perfect night for the SEC, improving to 152-20 overall.

So when mass shootings of average people and school children occurs, it's all "there's nothing we can do, these things just happen" but when a CEO gets shot, we need a special hotline, new safety protocols, and to lock up housewives over frustrated phone conversations. Got it.

To put these numbers in context, in the 2023-24 season, all teams combined went 426-1396 (.234) against Quad 1, and there were only 23 teams that posted a winning record against Quad 1. (18 if you remove the five mid-majors who went 1-0.) For an entire league to be sitting at .590 is insanity.

Records this season in Quad 1 games, by major conference: ACC: 11-43 (.204 winning %) Big Ten: 16-38 (.296) Big 12: 12-27 (.308) Big East: 8-17 (.320) SEC: 23-16 (.590)

Finishing up my bracket projection for this week and we're now up to 13 SEC teams in, plus two more among my first four out. Madness.

Liam McNeeley is a great player, but he also probably leads the nation in fouls committed on offensive rebound attempts.

Arizona will need to go 11-9 in Big 12 play just to have like a 40% chance of dancing. Based on what they’ve shown thus far, good luck with that.

If it was a specific player who sparked that point of emphasis, it was definitely Marcus Smart. But they need to bring it back. It's getting irritatingly comical to watch a guy hit the deck before the contact even comes.

I miss the days when we made a concentrated effort to get flopping out of college basketball. It seems to be worse than ever now, and the refs keep buying it.

Memphis winning at Clemson may well end up being the most important result of the day, given the complete lack of opportunities Memphis will have on its plate after nonconference play ends.

Great point. I'm 15 years out of college and 12 years away from potentially sending one to college, so I am at a peak "forgets that winter break is a thing" point in my life.

Of the 21 best games today according to KenPom Thrill Score, 13 are not true on-campus games. Ridiculous.

Unless I miscounted, D1 teams are 363-2 against non-D1 teams this season, the lone losses coming from Oral Roberts vs. Rogers State and Alcorn State vs. Xavier LA. I ASSUME the Dons will win, but it'd be quite the outcome if they don't.

Oh joy, we're talking about expanding the NCAA tournament again. I think their plan is to float this unwelcome notion every 2-4 months until we reach the point of asking them to f'ing do it already just to be done with the constant conversation about it.

Maybe Cleveland ends up sending money in the deal, but it’s hilarious that the breakdown of Gimenez’s 7-year, $106M deal might be: Guardians - 2 years, $12M Blue Jays - 5 years, $94M

I should probably be blown away by this much NIL, but I also just yesterday wrote an article about players who could one day eclipse Juan Soto's $765M contract, which makes $5M for "a generational-type scorer" feel low haha
