I can’t be the only one. I love hoops season. I always did but it was such a skull dragging before Pike in the B1G and previously. Now that we are good it’s a passion again. Something to look forward to without pending doom hovering over your head.
Watching and rooting for Temple for our NET.

Just saw the Illinois Texas box score... Marcus Carr is still in college
I watch much more college hoops these days. I especially like big ten games. Actually checked BTN tonight just to see if a game would be on to flip between that and the Devils. Butnits a MSU classic. What network is Temple on?
Double checked birthdays, and Caleb is older than Carr by around 5 months. Both were born in 1999, Caleb on January 3 and Carr on June 6.
But it certainly feels like Carr has been around forever, and this is his third school.
Great comeback win for Illinois
Illinois wins!
In other news, New Hampshire knocks off Boston college on their home floor in OT. Should provide a nice little boost to Columbia’s NET.

I actually turned it on when I saw it was in OT and immediately turned it off because BC was up 71-66 with two minutes left. Lol that they ended up losing 74-71.
Going to be tough for Temple to pull their NET up in the short term. December's schedule is full of teams with NETs of 200 and above.
229 Penn
66 Ole Miss
307 MD-Eastern Shore
206 East Carolina

Still, part of the formula is efficiency and scoring margin. If they can beat these teams by 10 for more and put up good, offensive and defensive efficiency numbers, they may make some small gains. Every little bit helps.
Also Nova even if they will have a down year figures to move up closer to 100 or inside the top 100..right now i think 155
I generally don't have a problem rooting for SHU in most other games, unless it's against a B1G school or if a SHU win would negatively impact our seeding.
I'd rather SHU be a Q1/Q2 game, and for both of us to be good. Makes our games more meaningful and juiced, especially since they no longer matter for conference seeding.
Don't get me wrong, it doesn't break my heart when they lose, and I get a good chuckle when they get embarrassed, but on the balance I'd rather they be a competitive program overall.

Agreed. There’s some recruiting overlap, but Seton Hall generally appeals to different types of kids. I think a competitive rivalry is better for both schools. I’d rather them be decent.
Happy for Syracuse and Boston College to continue to fall apart.
