If You Like Painful Basketball And Dickhead Fans, Root For Virginia
Look, I'm not going to complain about Virginia's style of play here. You don't need to read the umpteenth article telling you that there's not much joy to be found in watching their version of rockball which involves, on offense, walking the ball up the court, wheeling man after man around the perim...
If You Like Drama, Root for Maryland
Freshman Melo Trimble leads Maryland in games played, minutes, points, scoring average, free throws, free throw percentage, assists and steals. But Trimble's game is at least as pleasing to non-analytics obsessives. Early into a season in which his team earned a reputation for thriving in cliffhan...

Today's wild day of NCAA tournament action stayed crazy as North Carolina State's BeeJay Anya delivered a late jumper to give the Wolfpack a 66-65 win over LSU. It was all possible due to this clever dribbling from Trevor Lacey:...
The Arkansas Bench Threw A Shoe Onto The Court In The Middle Of Play
This might be the most bizarre sequence of events you'll see this NCAA tournament. First, for some unknown reason, Arkansas's Rashad Madden kicked his shoe off and into the crowd. I suppose it was loose and he felt he was better off without one?...
Cincinnati Forces Overtime With Last Gasp Layup
I—and everybody else, surely—was screaming "SHOOT THE DAMN BALL ALREADY" at Cincinnati's Troy Caupain as he seemingly took an eternity to attempt and tie the ballgame. But Caupain's internal clock had Swiss watchmaker-like accuracy, and by golly he was going to use up 7.3 of the 7.4 seconds he had t...
Arkansas Bro Tries To Catch Home Run Ball In His Visor
With sixteen meaningful college basketball games on today, it's entirely understandable why someone would want to sit out in the rain watching SEC baseball.
