Per @stathead.com, Duke-Alabama on Saturday will be the second regional final to feature teams that scored 100 points in a regional semi.

The other was the 1970 Mideast final between Jacksonville (beat Iowa 104-103) and Kentucky (beat Notre Dame 109-99).

The MSL Entry Draft is running right now. Syracuse's Finn Thomson was selected first overall by Brampton Excelsiors.

Absolute masterclass from Cooper Flagg today. My favorite part was how replicable it all felt between the playmaking, floor awareness, getting to his spots, and positioning. There was never a stretch that felt like he was playing outside of himself or hurting the offensive flow.

Cooper Flagg's 42 points vs. Notre Dame are the third-most in a single game on 14 or fewer field goal attempts in the history of the CBB reference database, which dates back to 1938-39.

Final stats: 42 points on 11-14 shooting, 7 assists, 6 rebounds, 1 steal

Shoutout the assistant who tried telling me Tanner wasn’t a D1 player 🤣 24 and 11 #light
FINAL: Sacred Heart 99, Canisius 82

Tanner Thomas with a 24 point, 11 rebound double-double, and the Pioneers move to 2-1.

Canisius falls to 0-14, 0-3 in the MAAC.

SHU shot 54% from the field, had 28 assists, including 9 from Mekhi Conner

NFL should have some kind of option to bounce one team per year from the playoffs and input someone good. steelers and texans don't need to participate this year. drop whichever and let burrow go to orchard park

Will be draft malpractice if Michigan's Danny Wolf isn't taken in the top 40 picks in June. His game is built for the pros.

This Vanderbilt team is insane. 12-1 going down the wire on the road with a strong 11-2 LSU team.

The Vandy Bench has outscored the LSU bench 31/6

We had many recent years (mostly pre-COVID years) of grind it out, low scoring, bad shot selection games in CBB. Copycat game, for a while it seemed like Packline, then "No middle" defenses were giving offenses hell

Nice to see Florida-Kentucky play uptempo, high scoring, efficient game.

To recap Cam Skattebo’s Peach Bowl
—100+ yards thru 3 quarters, vomiting entering 4th quarter, gets an IV
—throws a 42-yard TD pass on 4th down to make it 24-16
—Next drive catches a 62-yard pass, then runs in the TD, then runs in the 2-point conversion to tie the game
—Has more yards than Texas

Feel like this game is tied because of two equally important factors:

— Cam Skattebo, brought down from the mountains after being birthed by the gods

— Joe Tessitore's vocal chords manifesting it from another dimension

Kenny Blakeney wearing a sweatshirt from Ricky D's Rib Shack down the street here in New Haven, maybe to troll the Yale coaching staff that is still in suits, or maybe because it's really good.

The Rochester Knighthawks officially announced they have a one year deal with Mike Sisselberger, pending league approval.

Expect to see Siss suit up against Georgia this weekend.
The Rochester Knighthawks are adding faceoff specialist Mike Sisselberger to the active roster, I'm told

Blair 73-30 Phelps | End 3Q

Blair was 15-20 from the field in the third quarter. It felt like every possession was a wide open layup or dunk. Rippey is up to 24p/6a/4r/2s

I created a thing that puts every player's box score stats from the night before in one interactive table. Ive been using it every morning to quickly check who had a good/bad game instead of looking at 10 different box scores

updates nightly
