Also, Ohio State looked awesome tonight

The Maui tournament is generally worth watching a bit for cliff's notes fans like me, but with that floor?   Makes Oregon blush.

I love Maui, but with other options, the travel logistics of going to Hawaii has certainly diminished that tournament.  I remember when the only tournaments were Maui, Alaska and Preseason NIT.  2 of those 3 no longer exist, so I'm rooting for Maui.  Granted the boot kissing Phil Knight Tournaments every 5 years also take away from the potential entrants, plus Kentucky refusing to participate.  So I get it this year, when UNC, Duke, MSU, Purdue, Gonzaga, Villanova, UConn, Florida, Oregon, Alabama, ISU, Xavier and Oregon State are all committed to a "Thank You Nike" tournament that only exists every 5 years

Is it that or does Cincinnati just suck?

I doubt they suck.  This is certainly not a vintage Cincinnati team, but I think they are a solid NIT team, and OSU blasted them.

Not getting any better. Since I posted that:

• Illinois lost at home to UVA
• Michigan needed OT at home to beat a NAC school
• Ohio State got drilled by SDSU in Maui
• Minnesota needed OT at home to escape California Baptist (which I've never even heard of) by a single point

They played in Vegas.

They played in Vegas.

and the gophers were actually in the So Cal semi finals (4 teams) and played on Cal Baptist home court and the gophers best player saw action for first time after foot surgery 
but the gophers are a very young team that will be bottom half of the league by the end of the year

The Big Ten has been really impressive, especially compared to what I was expecting. Didn't think these teams would hit the ground running as much as they have. Except for Michigan, who sucks.

UW plays Dayton today on Paradise Island.

They played in Vegas.

My bad.

[MaximumSam]

Two more quality wins, though Wisconsin may have committed some crimes against basketball.

[Abba]

Wisconsin basketball teminds me of Iowa football.

They have looked awful the last two games. Only two that have looked good are Jett Howard and Dickinson. Terrance Williams has been decent. Guard play has been awful. Just awful outside of Jett at 3. When Dickinson and Howard have average games it’s terrible.

Bufkin & McDaniel have been very bad.
