Wake Forest is Number 1, that's all I care about :D Hopefully they can hold on to it for longer than 2 weeks like last time.

Nope.

Some other notable news from tonight...

-Northwestern is legit: Wildcats snap Michigan State's 27 game home streak.

-THE STREAK IS OVER!: NJIT finally wins with a ten point win against Bryant (I think a certain board member called it).

That was surely a result of Woody Paige's pep talk on Around the Horn.

So I just tuned into the game to see if it was any good late...93-67 UNC with 2:00 left. Wow. Well, at least you were behind your team.

I guess that's not surprising. VT is always good for some humongous upset every now and then.

Scratch that. Maybe next time.

Both my teams got walloped last night. Sparty got their asses handed to them by Northwestern. Hopefully this gets it out of their system and they can start focusing on all teams, not just the big games.

Pete LoPresti of USA TODAY interviewed Quinn Buckner recently and Pete asked him if Quinn's unbeaten 1976 Indiana national championship team still celebrates the last unbeaten team to lose....the answer is an obvious one. No, they do not. Hopefully, the '72 Dolphins get the memo.

1) The '76 Hoosiers are not the only team to ever go unbeaten through a season whereas the '72 Dolphins are the only team in their respective leagues.

2) Why is it such a big deal? It's a great achievement, let them celebrate it.

Wow tonight Syracuse was horrible. I know the team's going through a few injuries right now, but that's no excuse for the way they played tonight. They better get their act together soon if they want to prevent a complete freefall from the top 10 to the NCAA Tournament bubble.

And thank god the lacrosse title defense starts in about 2 weeks. Cause the basketball team's giving me ageda as of late.

Wow!

Wake vs Duke was a great game!

Wake gets a game winning lay up at .8 seconds left.

New #1 next week!

Gahahahaha, I want to rip my hair out right now, if Henderson could have foud some way to hand Scheyer the ball with seconds they would have had it....but they played a great game and to me College Basketball Rankings dont matter that much since thier is a Tornament at the end. Good Game Wake, looking foward to taking yall down in Cameron :D

As an ASU Alum the way they're playing and are on top of the Pac 10 at the moment, Herb Sendek has brought this team around. Now to make James Harden play another season.
