It’s beautiful 🥹

What a slate of games we have on this fine December Saturday

History tells us that one of these 12 teams will win the national championship & cut nets in April.

Every national champion since 2004 was top 12 in the week 6 AP Poll... and here we are

How important is it at this point in the season?
Its important but not end all be all.

This is a look at the 23/24 non conference. Teams will move in conference play but a lot of the high seeds that won in March ranked high: UConn, Purdue, Bama, Illinois, Tennessee, Clemson

A mid major focus:

*San Diego St is right behind Drake
UC Irvine defense is NO JOKE - allowing 58.8 ppg

The CBB Efficiency Landscape *post-Feast Week*⬇️

🟠 Miami

The Drake Bulldogs are the best story in college basketball…

Dalton Knecht’s last 2 games:

37 points, 12/16 FG, 9/12 from 3
27 points, 10/17 FG, 5/10 from 3

11.3 ppg on 52/46/92 shooting on the season. Unconscious shooter. I still have no idea how he fell to the Lakers at 17😭

Kam Jones would very much like that NPOY award, my god.

17/13/10 triple double what a night
😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨

And as a Dyson truther for years it feels great to see him cooking. I was ready to put my hypothetical scouting career on the line for him back in 2022
November 19, 2024 at 11:24 PM
No NBA player has EVER won DPOY & MIP in the same season…

Dyson Daniels, AKA “The Great Barrier Thief” has as good a chance as ever to do it. Currently 5th in MIP odds & 3rd in DPOY odds

Wins are wins …. & this was a NASTY dog fight win for McNeese State

MUCH needed victory for Will Wade’s Pokes vs a good North Texas team - 68th in KP & just beat Minnesota. Pokes are just an insane defensive team, so much intensity. Mid major Houston style

The math ain’t mathin on this one…

Shout out to Matt Painter & Purdue for always playing a great non conference schedule. One of the few powerhouses who always do all in the midst of Big Ten conference play starting🫡
November 18, 2024 at 3:34 PM
Gonna go ahead and say this if not a good 3-0 start (wins are wins????)
November 16, 2024 at 8:50 PM
LOVE this Xavier team. Have raves about them for months…

Great backcourt & balance with LOADS of experience. Take notice🙅‍♂️✍️
November 16, 2024 at 7:19 PM
I have NEVER seen this offensive output from Wisconsin basketball.

What a night for the Badgers, especially John Tonje with a 40 piece putting the nation on notice
November 16, 2024 at 4:30 AM
BRZOVIC FOR THE CHARLESTON WIN IN 2OT IN AN NBA SCORE GAME FOR 39 PTS ON THE NIGHT.
