Not every game is a work of art. Winning ugly is still winning. Iowa is a solid team.

Purdue is NUMBER 1 for the first time in their history.

UConn's Paige Bueckers is out 6-8 weeks with a tibial plateau fracture.
That’s hard to believe with all the teams and players they have had over the years.
I'm still in disbelief (although they deserve it!). What a fun team to watch - the number of times they've gone on 9-12 point runs in the span of a minute (usually led by Ivey) is incredible. No doubt they'll lose a couple games, but now that Brees is retired, maybe New Orleans and the Superdome has room for some more Boilermaker magic in April!@BoilerCLE where you at???

Virginia lost at James Madison last night, 52-49.
The ACC is putrid this year.

Duke is Duke and the rest aren't probably good. Watched Syracuse play Villanova last night. I'm thoroughly convinced Boeheim would have retired if not for the chance to coach his two sons. The Orange are not good.

And this is always the answer as to why college sports are better than pros.

I hope Purdue's radio guy didn't go through their engineering program.

Haha, the play-by-play guy is one of my students. The “let’s go!” guy is actually the pro in the booth (the adult)—alumni are always nuttier than the actual kids. College sports really are the best.
Ok, time to retreat back into my cave...
I'm really afraid of what the program is going to look like going forward. I'd love to know what the move is after Jimmy. Seems like he forced kids to leave so both his sons could play there and when all leave what will we have left? Syracuse doesn't pay coaches either so it will probably be a promote from within scenario. Recruiting already not what it once was (although next year's class is supposedly pretty good).
It appears we still have curse of #1 going on in College Basketball.. You guys will be just fine.

It's hard to say losing to #1 is a bad loss, but this has to be close.
Never trailed in regulation.
Led by double figures for a good part of the 2nd half.
Led by 12 with 6:00 to go.
Led by 6 with 2:00 to go.
Lost by 10 in OT.

I graduated Seton Hall in 1969 (Grad School in 1985) and have followed the "Pirates" basketball team through highs (1989 NCAA Finals where they were victims of arguably the worst call in NCAA Finals History) and lows.
They have a pretty good team this year, and are 9-1 - they beat Texas and Rutgers this week. I don't think they're as good as their ranking, but it should be a fun ride this year.
