We'll be top 5 on Monday.

And #1 if we get to 10-0

DePaul.....just when I thought big east could sweep

Announcers absolutely fawning over Charmin Kalkbrenner. “He put on 15 pounds of muscle”, “best rim protector in CBB”, “contender for national defensive player of the year”, “so dangerous in the pick & roll”

His stat line is a bunch of 0’s and a few 1’s now 3/4 of the way through the 1st half.

Creighton looks really good. I think they look better than Kansas.

I mean… let’s be honest, he’s generally a pretty solid player for Creighton.

Vanderbilt lost to Presbyterian.

Hey don't knock my alma mater. It was IPFW when I graduated from there. Those Mastodons are pesky!!

 

[AntG168]

I know competition, competition. But Creighton looks like an offensive wagon.

How could anyone look at UConn, Marquette, and Creighton and say Mich St is better? The. Big East is going to be a gauntlet

Yeah they look sharp regardless of the competition. High quality passing, drilling the open looks, tons of energy.

 

[Letsgohuskies11]

Creighton is going to be very tough

 

[HCCForever]

Baylor-Auburn was a good game to watch. Not sure why they were playing in South Dakota but very good early season game won by Baylor.

 

[Ricker]

Creighton Box score is impressive. 18 for 38 3's is 47%. Everybody on the roster scored at least 5 pts, every player was at least 40% from the field, 53 to 21 rebounding advantage with only 13 rb by their centers, and only 9 turnovers so they valued the ball. That is a box score that says a whole team played well, I don't care who they played.

Everything comes down to how everyone does in early tournaments. That’s what always sets the tone for the season as far as how respected each conference is, and thus how strong each conferences’ teams’ schedules are

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Looking forward to seeing him in high profile matchups

My father-in-law from ND loves this guy.

Basically, he got no other D1 offers because Nelson only played ND public schools…scouts didn’t believe his talent because he played against weak competition.

Kinda similar to Clingan in that sense. Happy to see him getting an opportunity at Alabama to boost his pro potential.

 

[Ricker]

Nelson is a difference maker like Clingan if you have enough other pieces

 

[REB1094]

MSU is 0-5 from three at halftime against Southern Indiana, after 1-20 against JMU. This might be a problem for them..

Luckily Southern Indiana is super bad and Michigan St is rocking them 37-14

 

[Austin316]

Lol JMU living in March

 

[storrsroars]

Kent St committed a ridiculous and unnecessary foul on their inbound with 1.2 left. Really stupid play. And then JMU was up 5 with 14 sec left in OT1, but Kent tied it to go to OT2 because a JMU guy stepped OOB taking an inbounds pass.

Lol JMU living in March

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Yale plays Gonzaga at 9 PM tonight on ESPN+.

I really question Gonzaga's ceiling this year, especially after starting SF Steele Venters (15.3p, 37.1 3P% last year at Eastern Washinton) is declared out for the year w/ a knee injury.

Obviously, Ryan Nembhard is great, Anton Watson is a very good power forward, Graham Ike was excellent last year at Wyoming (basically went 20/10) and Nolan Hickman is a solid all-around guard, but outside of those four, the Zags are super unproven.

With Venters out, Zags now have just ten healthy scholarship players.

I'll try to catch the start of tonight's game...I think Yale has a shot; or, if you are the betting type (I'm not), I'm curious about the spread.

 

[Letsgohuskies11]

Duke and Arizona play tonight at Duke. Should be a good one.

 

[M.S.G.]

The TJ Power experience begins at Duke......................................................................

Played 8 minutes in a 38 point blowout of Dartmouth the other night. 0-1 FG (1 three), 1 PF and 1 TO. He could end up playing even less next year than this year. Will be an interesting one to watch.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Awesome game from Richie Springs!

Kind of surprised he's not a starter, but I don't know much about their team. Why are all the minutes zeros? Thx ESPN.
