Wofford leading UNC 73-70 with 2 minutes left. 

Is it just me or is this year even a bit crazier with upsets than in the past? Seems that a lot of the top teams have a loss to low-tier teams. I know that when Duke got beat by BC, the announcers noted that they've lost their first road league game in 4 of 6 years, so it might just be me, but when I was watching this game last night, I was just thinking that the way this season has been going, I'm not even surprised.

Bonzie Colson fractures a bone in his foot and is out 8ish weeks. 

Really sucks for the Irish. He is such a good player. Love watching him play.

NCST takes down Duke in Raleigh.

Bkje Devils are as talented as anyone in basketball, but they cannot keep guards out of the lane. Can win it all, or be out in S16.

Michigan trying to upset @Mich St and were 19-19 from free throw line....then the damn PG Xavier Simpson missed 4 straight to keep it in the air a bit then threw ball away on inbounds. Yikes

Moe Wagner killed it. Michigan needs to clean up their free throws late...but a greet showing by them.

If this year is teaching me anything, it's that if you make the top 10, you better just get resigned to the fact you're getting an L in the next couple days. Which will make it really fun when my bracket gets busted on the first weekend due to the higher seeds winning 30 of 32 games on Thursday and Friday.

I’m pretty out of the college loop. What are some non obvious fun/good teams to watch?

Oklahoma. I know they are highly ranked, but Trae Young is must see TV.

Trae Young is insane. 

Ive enjoyed watching Rhode Island (semi local kid, EC Mathews), Nevada and Boise State on the mid-major side. Then, Ohio State, Purdue (kill me), Arizona, Oklahoma, Wichita State and Clemson (another local kid, Mark Donnal) as far as more major teams go. Duke is insanely deep, but I haven’t really found their games to be much fun to watch.

Zavier Simpson fails on 2 FT and MD drains a trey with 3 sec left to take a 1 pt lead on Mich. But foul called on MD after a half court  pass and a drive and Mich pulls it out by 1.

I’ve not watched a lot but twice now Simpson has struggled closing out games
