02/21/06 Boston College @ Virginia – Charlottesville, Va. RSN (XM 191) 7:00 PM (I’m going to pretend that this game hasn’t happened yet and write what I planned on writing before the game. My thoughts about the actual game will go in the comments.) This game doesn’t really have any particular meaning, but that probably…

It wasn’t a good week for the ACC bubble teams. Maryland and Virginia both slipped in almost every poll while Miami and Florida State basically spun their wheels. For Miami and UVA, their only chance was to make some big gains in the final few weeks of the season, and that didn’t happen this week.…

First off, a site note. I, and others, normally comment on games during the week in the “The Week To Be” threads. So, sometimes what I write here is redundant and other times I am just brief because I already discussed a game in that previous thread. Feel free to jump in and say what…

Way back on January first, StateFans Nation wrote an excellent post looking at how the RPI affects bubble teams. They looked at every season back to 1999 and found that basically if you are in a power conference and have an RPI of 35 or better, you’re in (duh). If you have an RPI between…

As you’ve probably heard, last night J.J. Redick broke the NCAA record for career three-pointers. The man whose record he broke, Virginia’s Curtis Staples, was actually in the house to watch the title switch hands (does anyone know how or why that came to be? Did Staples have to transfer a title belt or something?)…

Chris Chase has just what you need to make your Valentine’s Day just a little sweeter. The Adam Morrison mustache bit is particularly inspired.

We don’t play on Monday nights around here. 02/14/06 Maryland @ Clemson – Clemson, SC RJ* (XM 191) 8:00 PM Maryland really needs this game to keep their NCAA Tournament hopes…

And I’m not talking about “Eye Of The Tiger.” The Zou, a Mizzou blog (get it?) runs down the impressive list of lowlights of pretty-boy Quin Snyder’s career in Columbia. Yeah, it was a rough ride, but at least he can fall back on modeling (I mean look at that picture! Do you think the…

It’s getting to be the time of year when you can start to seriously evaluate teams’ postseason chances. With about a month of play left to determine things, it’s still a bit early for some teams, but we can certainly tell who the significant players are. With that in mind, I’m reviving a feature I…

A couple of years ago, I wrote an article about Oklahoma State’s Eddie Sutton. At the time he had just offered a scholarship to former Tar Heel recruit JamesOn Curry (who as you might remember, lost his opportunity to play for UNC when he was busted for selling drugs). In that article I used the…
