Big Sky Championship
No Colorado (25-8, 15-3) vs
Montana (24-9, 15-3)

That's the marquee matchup we coveted.

 

[PhilSimms11]

Welcome to the Dance Party.
Patriot--American (22-12)
Southland--McNeese (27-6)

 

[PhilSimms11]

Oklahoma (20-12) defeats Georgia (20-12) 81-75. Word is that gets OU in. It plays Kentucky (21-10) next.

Very happy for coach Moser.

Could these two be related?

[TheGoodMan19]

Oregon slaughters Indiana. Did we hear a bubble burst

BYU takes out Iowa State. They look good

The CBB would looks to Cooper Flagg's ankle. The 2nd UNC game showed that Duke isn't the same without him

 

[redseat]

Duke needs to worry about Flagg and Brown's health.

Duke actually played better without him today.

But to be fair with him in they were 0-12 beyond the arc

I was watching mighty St. Bonaventure beat the lowly Duquesne. VCU gets a thrashing next

 

[TheGoodMan19]

This Marquette-Xavier game is a hoot. Both teams trading blows
