I mentioned earlier how Kansas St was one of those “in your team’s conference” teams that I habitually think isn’t very good regardless of seed and record.  Iowa St is the exact opposite.  I always think they have a chance to make noise.  Always enjoyed watching them.

Why have I never heard of this Tacko Fall fella?
Idk.  He’s actually gotten quite a bit of coverage in the world of college basketball.  Obviously a pretty unique dude.

Even as a cliff's notes fan of hoops I thought I would've seen him.

Agree on Iowa St. That goes way back to Johnny Orr days.   Julius mikalik teams among others.  They did get bounced as a 2 I believe though once.

UNC becomes the second #1 seed to trail at halftime today.  Duke was only up 4 themselves at the half.  Let’s see if UNC can make adjustments like the other two did.

I didn't know about him until I read this (link):
Tacko Fall Is 7-Foot-6. And He’s Breaking Basketball.

Really?  He's literally the only college basketball player my son knows, and has for the past three seasons.  Hell, when UCF got good in football last year he asked why Tackos team was playing football.

That explains it.  I have girls and I know about all kinds of girls favorites and artists none of which are 7 foot 6 black men that play AAC hoops.

The B1G would have been perfect if not for Wisconsin. 

I guess that makes 2019 UW BB = 2017 M FB

Well, thanks, but nah. 

All of the participating Big Ten football teams won their last game of the season that year, except for one.

I don't think any of the Big Ten basketball teams are gonna win their last game of the season this year.
U RAH RAH! WIS CON SIN!
