Three top 10 teams played today and they all lost. I wonder when the last time was that every single top 10 team who played on a certain date lost, minimum 3 teams...

Indiana State seems like they might be one of the worst 5-0 teams in Missouri Valley history... Does anyone here have a kenpom subscription? I'm just wondering what their final conference record is projected as, I'm not seeing them finishing better than 9-9. And that is after a 6-0 start, because we all know they will beat Drake on Saturday.

Should I go to the South Dakota at South Dakota State game tomorrow or the Baylor at Kansas State game? Kansas State seems like a no-brainer, but I love those little schools, and USD/SDSU is an in-state rivalry.... Hmm.... edit: I see that KSU charges $10 to park, I assume it is easy enough to park for free on one of those side streets a few blocks away?

I just really like to drive to random college basketball games. I save the longer trips for when my girlfriend has other plans since she is more normal than I am and doesn't like driving 10-12 hours roundtrip in a day. edit: I'll be going to the Baylor/Kansas State game.

Thoguh posted:News: For the first time in probably forever, Iowa State is on a two game streak against Kansas. I was discussing Iowa State/Kansas with someone last night and discovered that from 1999-2001 Iowa State actually beat Kansas five times in a row.

In Missouri Valley Conference news, Wichita State and UNI both won again - that Wichita State at UNI game on January 31 is going to be huge, especially if both teams are 19-2. Which they should be, UNI at Illinois State is the most likely upset before then.

I just noticed that Harvard lost to Dartmouth yesterday. It's early but that helps Yale's chances - Yale is currently the only undefeated Ivy League team at 2-0 in the conference. Yale hasn't made the NCAA tournament since 1962, and in fact, since 1986, only Penn, Princeton, Cornell, and Harvard have won the Ivy League (regular season champ gets auto-bid). I don't know about you guys, but I think it's time we finally see a new Ivy League team in the tournament, I'm officially rooting for Yale from here on out. Go Bulldogs!

Chris Allen got kicked off of Michigan State's team. I can't really keep track of all of Iowa State's transfers, but I'm sure Allen wasn't the only one where that was the case. Edit: oh, Korie Lucious too, him and Allen go together... Nolan Arenado fucked around with this message at 16:18 on Jan 30, 2015 |

I was bored at work today so I made a Google spreadsheet with every conference tournament bracket. We did something like this a few years ago and it was a cool way to keep track of all of the tournament results and it's public so anyone can edit those in realtime once the matchups get set and the games start in a little over a month. Until then, I guess you can just take a look at all of the different formats and marvel at how stupid the MAC's is. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TCUEwtkOclwruXd7PpsZhaxe2AGNpuuSXWWoM6EiUk0/edit?usp=sharing

It's the most extreme example of the direction smaller conferences have been going in recent years. Best I can tell, they want a huge event spread out over lots of days and involving all of their teams so they can make money. But they also want their best team to win the conference tournament, because that team will have a better chance to win in the NCAA tournament. And that's how you end up with a five day tournament featuring 12 teams where the top 2 seeds get loving triple byes...
