Team of the Week: New Mexico (22-4) The Lobos had one of their best weeks in the program’s recent history. They beat San Diego State by 10 on the road, never letting the Aztecs within reach. Then they came back […]
Team of the Week: Notre Dame (14-8) Few thought Mike Brey’s team would contend in the Big East after losing leading scorer Tim Abromaitis for the season (torn ACL). Instead Brey has done an amazing job instilling a solid defense […]
Okay, so, I’m not actually there… but I’m watching the game from my recliner on a 42″ Panasonic plasma TV. It’s almost as good. Besides, sitting at home I’m “privied” to more stats, different angles and a quieter atmosphere to […]

Matchup: Defense? Anyone play any defense? Neither team knows how to play quick-strike defense and both teams have dribble-drive scorers. Both Michigan and Tennessee lack players that average more than one steal or one block per game (save Tennessee’s Melvin […]
Matchup: Duke is Duke, they’re on TV more than “Leave it to Beaver” reruns. Hampton is Hampton they’ve played fewer ranked teams than “Leave it to Beaver” reruns. Oh, and Duke just won the ACC tournament. And, no No. 16 […]
Matchup: UNC is habitually ranked in the Top 25. Long Island hasn’t even played a team in the Top 25 since 1997 – their last trip to the Big Dance. It’s Big vs. Small, here. And worse for the Blackbirds […]
Matchup: Pac-10 vs. SEC – this is why people watch… football! Too bad this is a basketball game. In reality, Washington is either really good (read: Pac-10 tourney) or really bad (read: February 2011). Georgia, hit the same type of […]
