Good weekend

K-State has officially become one of the toughest places to play in the nation. But Kansas showed why they will, and should, be the number one team in the nation when the polls are released in a little while. That team is built for a national title and has the right mix of vets and young studs, plus a coach with a ring. They will be a very hard out come March/April. K-State isn't a bad team either, especially at home, they made some mistakes, but that was a great game

Ken came back after their first loss to South Car to get a nice win over Vandy, and Tenn beat Fl, that is really all I have to say about the SEC, I am not a fan.

MSU got a nice win over Northwestern, and Chris Allan had a great dunk, if you haven't seen it yet, you should. But their first real test in the conference season comes tomorrow at Wisconsin. If they find a way to win in Madison, they all but clinch the big ten title. They do have some big games coming up though, so it isn't over yet.

Wings lost to the Pens in a shoot out and the Pistons lost a close one to the Magic. Not a good Sunday for sports at all. I watched about 4 plays total of the pro bowl, 3 too many. The Pro bowl is not only the worst of the 4 major sports all star games, it is one of the worst sporting events all year. There is no reason to still have it, the way the game is played now.

Cuse came back to beat Depaul on Saturday, after being down as many as 18. They are a very talented team, and Wes Johnson is one of the best players around, but that game showed me why they are not going to make a deep run in the big dance. When you play a zone all is takes is a team to get hot from 3, and in this day and age of college basketball, with the college line only being 19'9, that is going to happen. I am not going to promise anything, because it depends on match ups, but I don't know if they make it out of the first weekend.... yeah I said it.

UCONN is a very good basketball team, at home.. on the road, they are average at best.

G-town got a very big win on Saturday at home over Duke. They really took it to them. Could Duke be overrated? no, not Duke, that would never happen.

Busy week, looking forward to a lot of things. God I love this time of year. I'm right, you're wrong.
