1/12/2026 Baylor was victim number 15 this past Wednesday. This was Iowa State’s first road game since blowing out Purdue on December 8. The Bears came in at 10-3 and these games between the two are always close. Winning on the road will be key in this conference; the Big 12 has 7 teams ranked in the top 25 including number 1 Arizona. The Cyclones ranked 3 will now likely move up to number two after the Michigan loss. Terrible uniforms displayed by Baylor, when you wear that

1/11/2026 Who needs the NFL Playoffs, or even the college football national championship when you have Atlantic-10 men’s basketball? I’m bluffing a little; that game between Miami and Indiana will be electric. But there’s nothing better than a packed Saturday of A-10 ball. Time to see what the weekend had in store!  First and foremost, George Mason continues its red-hot start with an 86-80 win over VCU. The Patriots had three scorers over 15 points and accumulated all 86 poin

1/11/2026 Despite being back in town for a couple of weeks now, it wasn’t until this Wednesday night that I returned home. With all due respect to 2230 N Broadway Avenue, it’s got nothing on 200 Baker Dr, AKA John Belk Arena. I might live in the former, but I feel truly alive in the latter (For those concerned that I just published my home address on the internet, that’s actually Gru’s address according to the official Despicable Me Wiki). I was worried that my long-term sepa

DOMINATION RANKINGS OF EVERYTHING If you'd like to be one of our voters, just click here: VOTE Uh, Dave, what are we voting for. Well, as you know, College Basketball Times created the Domination Rankings - of college basketball. (Come on, let me assume you knew that.) Anyway, we decided to expand things a bit to include, well, everything together. The result: essentially a satire on all rankings. Here's how it works - sort of: Our voters come up with a weekly Top 25 which

1/11/2026 The Catamounts improved to 2-0 in America East action this week with victories over New Hampshire and Binghamton. Next up is Maine. All eyes will be on Ace Flagg, Cooper's brother. When I watch this Maine team, mine eyes are fixed on the glory that is senior forward John Shea, who has been blessed with a strong chin and a head of hair as thick and mysterious as the Amazon. 11/15/2025 The Catamounts continued their winning ways this week by defeating Brown University

1/6/2025 My daughter came home from her first semester at college. She was in our kitchen eager to make herself a healthy meal as part of a new wellness campaign to kick off 2026. Then she did something that really threw me for a loop–she cooked herself some Brussels sprouts. My response was utter disbelief and contempt.  “I don’t even know you anymore!” For those of you who don’t know my eating preferences, number one on my list of hated foods is Brussels sprouts. They taste

1/5/2026 On January 3rd, Providence took to the hardwood for the first time since December 19th.  Not having to watch them for two weeks was a nice Christmas gift.  However that is the last insult I will hurl at them today because their matchup against St. John's was glorious.  The Friars bested the Johnnies in dramatic fashion after coming in a 14.5 'dog, with Stef Vaaks leading the way with 16 pts, and 4-6 shooting from 3 point land. I can't wait until he plays for Kentucky

1/5/2025 Notre Dame took a brief swing through Northern California last week splitting two games with a win over Stanford, 47-40, followed by a loss to California, 72-71. The California game ended in an absolutely crazy sequence featuring Cal point guard Darrin “Dai Dai” Sylvester Ames, Jr. Dai Dai hit a three point shot with 11 seconds left and then another three pointer with 5 seconds left, only this time he was (allegedly) fouled. He hit the free throw for a 4-point play a

1/5/2026 No. 18 Notre Dame spent the first week of the new year in the Southeast corner of ACC-land and ended that week winless in 2026. The Irish dropped games on Thursday to Georgia Tech in overtime, 95-90, and on Sunday to Duke, 82-68. They are now 2-2 in conference play and may very well drop out of the top 25 for the first time in several years. Notre Dame returns home this week where they have not lost this season to play both Boston College and North Carolina.  By the

1/4/2025 Holiday Hangover Duke had a tough time shaking off the holiday break rust, narrowly winning its first 2 ACC games against Georgia Tech and Florida State, both of whom have been generally unimpressive so far this season.  On Wednesday, Duke trailed Georgia Tech at the half by 4, then outscored Tech by 10 in the second half for an 85-79 win.  Although Duke played better and poised to put the game out of reach several times in the second half, Duke failed to do so and T
