    Inspite of 18 turnovers, the Aggies managed to beat Wake Forest 57-44 which must've been a hard game to watch even for Aggies. Ugly ball.

    Yeah, growing up in Virginia, I remember Kentucky was usually the only SEC team we ever heard about.

    I don't think the software allows you to imbed Facebook stuff, I've tried. But as you noted just clicking on the Facebook gets you to the Bobby Knight interview. One of his tamer ones I'd say!:p

    IMO Bob Knight was one of the greatest college basketball coaches ever. Unfortunately, his legacy forever will be tainted by his unrestrained temperament, which in the end was his undoing. I'll always respect and honor his memory for what he did for IU for roughly 25 years beginning in 1971.

    Well Missouri just upset #1 Kansas. Missouri led by as much as 24 points in the second half.

    That's the good thing about college basketball, there are so many games nobody is likely to make it undefeated no matter how talented they are, was Kentucky the last team to make it through the regular season undefeated? A lot of parity in the men's game.

    A really good Houston Cougar team had a rough patch, still likely to finish as a top 10 team IMHO

    Some good news for Buckeye BB fans. Aaron Bradshaw center and 5 star transfer from Kentucky is back with the team. He missed the last four games while under investigation for a domestic dispute investigation buy the university.

    Vols are the new #1.

    In all, 14 ranked teams lost last week, including six teams in the top 10; Kansas and then-No. 11 Wisconsin lost twice. Only two teams -- Auburn and No. 12 Oregon -- remained in the same poll spots they were a week ago and the volatility saw five teams jump into the rankings.

    The Aggies snuck into Indianapolis and took one from the Boilermakers tonight 70-66.
    Wade Taylor had a game, and was probably the difference.

    I watched the Purdue-A&M game. Simply put, Purdue was out-physicaled. As I recall when Buzz Williams was at Marquette, aggressive physical play was a trademark of his teams. I saw that today.
