College Basketball Countdown
With college basketball slowly taking the college sports drivers seat, there’s no better way to preview it, than with a top 10 countdown. The great thing about top 10 countdowns is they are so rarely done. Especially on websites or networks like Fox Sports. I don’t think I have ever watched a countdown or best of show on Fox Sports Net. Not once. Never.
10. Michigan State: Scouts say the Spartans have the deepest team in the NCAA. This will be all the more impressive when they lose to a talent less Michigan squad for the third straight season.
9. Gonzaga: Jesuits are hard core, on the hard wood. Rooting against them is like rooting against Jesus.
8. Louisville: Terrance Williams and the Cardinals will continue to shoot the lights out, even without Sebastian Telfair’s firearms on campus.
7. Duke: I really like when programs fly under the radar like Duke. And although I probably couldn’t tell you who their coach is, or name any players they’ve had in the last 20 years, I just think they are a true feel good underdog story. Like lesser known programs such as Winthrop, Valparaiso and George Mason that came before them, I think the Blue Devils may even have a chance to reach the NCAA tournament this season.
6. Quinnipac: Go ahead and tell me I’m foolish but when the Bobcats win their next 25 games to finish 26-3 then we can talk.
5. Ohio State: The Buckeyes downed the No.15 ranked Texas A & M, who probably would have also been beaten by the Ohio State women’s team – who are this year’s real story. This past weekend the lady Bucks defeated Colgate 88-26. Generally, I expect more from that brand of toothpaste.
4. UCLA: Mustafa Abdul-Hamid, Nikola Dragovic, Luc Richard Mbah a Moute and Alfred Aboya are destined to make this All-American team a great one.
3. Memphis: I like John Calipari, but I liked it more when John Chaney tried to kill him. What I like the most is that Chaney looks like a Furby.
2. North Carolina: North Carolina’s four point win over Davidson earlier this season proved that they can’t be stopped. In an unrelated story, I wish all white people would be stopped from wearing North Carolina colors in public.
1. Kansas: The Jayhawks should lead the nation just like Mark Mangino leads the nation in ham and kielbasa consumption.

Quinnipac? Is that in Belize?
Basketball??? It’s still football season dammit!
He seems to be trying to wean you off of FB….slowly. Don’t stare at the bright lights
OSU got blown out in that game….
UCLA will be cutting down the nets in April. Its. That. Simple. I also like the Vols hoops team — of the male variety. Solid team.
KNOW YOUR HOOPS! Two Tex teams in Top Ten. Get a clue.
GET A LIFE! It’s only November
Blow me chachi, Hoops is happening
Try to survive without the 1-3-1 zone and have fun being 9th in the BE
