Depends of your definition of hoops.

Iowa State, on the road, holds on to beat TCU.
Hopefully, another boost for our NET.

This is big. It's a bloodbath conference and they're one of the worst teams (but still a top 50 possible tournament team), so they may lose a bunch of games and fall in the NET (because NET punishes losing regardless of margin more than KenPom/Torvik does). So a few road wins goes a long way to stabilizing.

Iowa St & TCU both top 25 so not sure what you mean by worst teams? Don't see Iowa St out of top 30 this year and should easily be a tourney team.

I refuse to believe that Arcidiacono is Nova’s best option for any reasonable amount of minutes. He is quite literally just a warm body out there and offers nothing.

What a difference a year makes. A healthy Fremantle is really the total package and can score from just about anywhere. I seriously didn’t think he was going to return to form. Need a healthy SJ defending him when X comes to us.
Miller is much better than Steele. As another poster on here put it, early in the season Miller had to clean the stench of Travis Steele off this team. Also Souley Boum is so much better than Paul Scruggs
He never really recovered from his foot injury last year

Souley Boum is one of my favorite non-UConn players, and one of the very few that I wish was on UConn. You could drop him onto literally any team in college basketball and he would make every player on that team better.
This guy was playing in front of a few thousand in UTEP the last two years, and now he is leading one of the Top 15 teams in the country. I wonder how many Souley Boums there are toiling in obscurity because they didn't get the right offer out of high school.

The Pac 12 has more "what the fudge happened in that game" scores than the rest of the P6 conferences combined. Basically every game involving Colorado is one of those games.

Kansas State is 14-1, with road wins over Texas and Baylor. Where the heck did this team come from?
Incidentally, KState's only loss is to Butler.

Anyone else catch the end of the Hall-Butler game? Seton Hall player goes up for a highlight dunk up 25 with :29 seconds left and is fouled. Video pans to Shaheen Holloway who’s arguing with a ref and mouths “don’t blame me, im just the coach”

Kansas State and Keyontae Johnson is one of my favorite storylines of the season. Johnson is healthy and thriving. This past week has had to be a little unsettling for him. Tang paid his dues and then some (19 years as an assistant!) and deserves every good thing coming his way.

I’m home alone tonight, it’s just me and the dogs, so for some reason I’m watching Gonzaga in a dog fight with Santa Clara on the road. Zags just took their largest lead of the night (4 points) with 6 minutes left.
Every team in this conference outside of Gonzaga would be a “pesky mid-major capable of pulling off an upset if they play their A game and catch UConn sleeping” if they came to Gampel.

The dynamic of him leaving Florida is really interesting. Obviously he wanted to keep playing, thus the transfer. So Florida either lost him somehow in the process of his recovery or hiring a coach so he wanted to transfer, or they didn't think he could contribute. Either way, looks like a big ouch.
