OK, You Have My Attention

Toughest Schedule

Harvard

Game Of The Week

Louisville vs Kentucky 12/26

12/25

• Oklahoma vs Harvard...in Hawaii, it's Christmas and there's nothing else on. Harvard has been playing much better as of late while Oklahoma continues to flow.

12/26

• Louisville vs Kentucky...big time battle for Kentucky, two very good teams with rabid fanbases who hate each other

12/27

• Maryland vs Marshall...Maryland is starting to put it together as Diamond Stone adjusts to the college game

12/28

• UNC vs UNC-Greensboro...Will Brice Johnson continue to dominate with aggressive play? Has UNC bought in on defense?
• Stony Brook vs NJIT...Both Puriefoy and Warney coming off monster games for SB...NJIT coming off of 9 point win over St. John's
• Rutgers vs UMASS-Lowell...UML has over-performed a bit so far this season...Rutgers coming off of lackluster win over Fairleigh Dickinson...should be a close one.

12/29

• Florida vs Florida St...two good teams, same state...Florida overrated at the moment?
• Purdue vs Wisconsin...first real test for Wisconsin with Greg Gard in charge
• Texas vs UCONN...both good(?) teams...with very good coaches
• Albany vs St. Francis BK...healthy only concern for the Great Danes as Freshman Joe Cremo comes off a career night
• Miami vs Princeton...Miami appears to be the real deal this season and they're fun to watch
• Siena vs Vermont...just win Vermont

12/30

• Virginia vs Oakland...Kay Felder vs the Virginia defense
• UNC vs Clemson...because both have nice color schemes
• Syracuse vs Pittsburgh...old big east battle, now ACC style
• Indiana vs Rutgers...first Big Ten game for Rutgers...could get very very ugly if the Rutgers defense doesn't show up.

12/31

• HAPPY NEW YEARS EVE
