Mid-Major Update

    Here’s an Update on three teams that have been playing well recently. Saint Mary’s had a disappointing time in the Wooden Legacy tournament earlier this season. The Gaels went 1-2 as they lost games to Washington St and Georgia. They have been on cruise control ever since. They’re 18-2 and 7-0 in league play – alreadyContinue reading “Mid-Major Update”

The Long Wait (Welcome Creighton, Liberty)

It’s going to be a long agonizing week for the Middle Tennessee St Blue Raiders after their upset loss at the hands of Florida International in the Sun Belt Conference semi-finals (more on this later).  They were dominant in the regular season winning all but one conference games, but March is cruel as the BlueContinue reading “The Long Wait (Welcome Creighton, Liberty)”

Rock Chalk

I haven’t seen a more impressive team this season then Kansas. Coach Bill Self’s squad lost Sherron Collins and Cole Aldrich and hasn’t skipped a beat. The Morris twins are proving to be a load in the paint. Marcus and Markieff are averaging 30 points and 15 rebounds between the two of them and inContinue reading “Rock Chalk”

Conference Tournament Previews (Addendum)

SUN BELT: Troy, North Texas and Middle Tennessee St all tied for the overall conference title with 13-5 records. Troy is the No. 1 seed by way of a 2-1 record against UNT AND MTSU. However, the Trojans has been done no favors by having Western Kentucky on its side of the bracket. There’s notContinue reading “Conference Tournament Previews (Addendum)”
