Good Wins: Clemson (twice), at Virginia Tech, vs. North Carolina (ACC Tournament)
Bad Losses: None (worst losses were at Northwestern and at Miami)
Strengths:
1. Toney Douglas. The Atlanta, GA product erupted for Florida State this season. In his senior year, Douglas averaged 21.1 points per game while running the Seminoles’ offense. He also hit more than 44 [...]

It isn’t called March Madness for nothing.
Only in Conference-USA, where the Memphis Tigers look like they will never lose another game, have upsets been few and far between. “Carnage” is the only word that can adequately describe what’s been going on with the nation’s top teams this weekend throughout various conference tournaments.
In the ACC, Clemson [...]

Friday of Championship Week is often billed as the best day of the college basketball season, and it certainly did not disappoint in Atlanta at the ACC Tournament. Three of the four quarterfinal games were decided after the final buzzer sounded.
North Carolina 79, Virginia Tech 76
With all the carnage among college basketball’s top teams throughout [...]

In case you’re wondering, there was basketball played outside of Madison Square Garden (site of the Big East Tournament) on Championship Week Thursday. You might not have known it while being engulfed by Syracuse’s 127-117 six-overtime win over UConn, not to mention Villanova’s buzzer-beating victory over Marquette and West Virginia’s emphatic upset over Pittsburgh, but [...]

Good Wins: vs. North Carolina, vs. Virginia Tech, at Maryland
Bad Losses: at St. Louis, vs. Harvard

Strengths:
1. Tyrese Rice. Having a stellar point guard who can manage games with his experience has always been a recipe for NCAA Tournament success (not to mention success in general). Boston College has one in Rice. The senior is [...]

Butler 75, Davidson 63
The Worldwide Leader in Sports got what it wanted when Stephen Curry, a gametime decision due to an ankle injury, suited up and stepped on the floor for the opening tip. Unfortunately for Davidson, Curry’s presence made little difference against Butler on ESPNU BracketBuster weekend.
Butler went into Davidson on Saturday afternoon [...]

Make it 10 straight for the ACC.
This one, however, came a little bit harder than most of the conference’s previous nine wins in the ACC-Big 10 Challenge, and was a little bit more difficult than expected.
So bragging rights go to the ACC yet again, but let’s be honest, this is pretty much all about the [...]

Is 10 the lucky number for the Big 10?
The tenth annual ACC-Big 10 Challenge tips off on Monday and the score is ACC 9, Big Ten 0. That’s right; the Big 10 has never won, and it has only been remotely competitive once since 2003 (losing 6-5 in 2005). Overall, the ACC is 56-30 in [...]

Blake Griffin and the Oklahoma Sooners deprived the Madison Square Garden faithful of a chance to see Davidson star Stephen Curry. But the fans, at least, will get to see another Pre-season First-Team All-American in Griffin, himself. The semifinals of the Pre-season NIT tip off in New York on the day before Thanksgiving, pitting Boston [...]

Winthrop was 56-2 in its last 58 home games heading into Friday night. Davidson brought a 16-game winning streak into Rock Hill, South Carolina. Something had to give when the Eagles and Wildcats squared off inside Winthrop Arena in an opening-night BracketBruster showdown on ESPN2.
Although Davidson star sophomore Stephen Curry endured one of the worst [...]
