ARK UK the highest scoring SEC regulation game since 1996
sun run by NCSU in the first half, lighting up UNC for 1.369 ppp
I knew what the 1996 game was without looking it up
In 1996 UK dropped 86 on LSU...

In the first half
Is amusing to see Jeff Sheppard drop the final dagger in the half
Knecht playing his way into the top 5 of the NBA Draft would be the best defense of the Transfer Portal I've ever seen
Top 5 SEC scorers
1. Dalton Knecht (Northern Colorado transfer)
2. Mark Sears (Ohio transfer)
3. Antonio Reeves (Illinois State transfer)
4. Wade Taylor
5. Sean East (Bradley/UMass transfer)
This has to be the worst defense of Cal’s career
His identity has always been defense and getting hot shot freshmen to guard has been the biggest feather in his cap in his time at UK.
Could he be gearing up for one last pay day in the league?
There's no way any NBA team would hire Coach Cow (except maybe the Bucks).
Best time of the year. Conference tournaments start this week.
Lots of awesome Conference Tournaments upcoming.
Interested to see if the teams that have a 1 seed locked up (specifically Purdue and UConn) put in their full effort or if they're content mailing it in and regrouping for the real tournament.
Gonzaga apparently a bubble team and may need some wins. I'd have them locked. Wouldn't want to play them or Michigan State round 2 really.
Houston lost a key piece in Tugler. Huge off the bench for their defense.
Looks like st johns is the bubbliest bubble team, I assumed they were drawing dead a couple weeks ago when I looked them up, would be more fun for them to be in
and we are drawing live for kentucky st johns round 1
Gonzaga isn't remotely a bubble team. They were last week but then they blew out two good teams on the road. I still think their streak of eight straight sweet 16s will end because I don't trust their guards' ability to score vs. good teams. But they're a far better team than they were a couple months ago. Great coaching job by Few.
Yeah didn't realize a win over st Mary's and another ok win would take them from last team in to like a 7 seed for some reason.
When you get to the bubble, very few of those teams have true road wins over other tournament teams.
Purdue wins the B1G for the second straight year. Play Illinois Tuesday night, a win makes it outright, but even a loss and a win in the last game vs Wisconsin or Illinois losing at Iowa makes it outright again.
Purdue makes it back to back outright B1G titles by winning at Illinois.
Also, we already lost a one seed in a conference tournament! Eastern Kentucky goes down!
linardi had them as the 1st team out and wake forest as the last team in
tonight...beating depaul on the road is kinda meaningless but running up the score isn't plus having pitino sr as your HC helps on any borderline decisions (imho).
what also helps st. johns is wake forest losing as a 13.5 fav on the same night.
also want to throw out a LOL to Akron losing outright as a 22 pt. fav. Good thing for them is that the only MAC team making the tourney is their conference winner so they're not drawing dead yet.
UNLV improves to 3-22 in their last 25 vs. San Diego St. tonight!
they are also now 10-1 in their last 11 games.
Is it too much to hope for a bump up to first 4 in by week's end?
ACC tiebreaker for the regular season title (not that it matters):
if UNC beats Duke, they win
If Duke beats UNC, it goes to a tiebreak
Tiebreak:
UNC lost to Syracuse and Clemson
Duke lost to Wake and Pitt
Both lost to GT
If Clemson wins @ Wake, Duke wins the tiebreak
If Wake beats Clemson and Pitt beats NC State, UNC wins the tiebreak
If Wake beats Clemson, and NC State beats Pitt, then Clemson, Cuse, Wake and Pitt finish in a 4 way tie for 4th, and it goes to a literal coin toss
