Colorado wins today 102-100, shooting 63% and making 28 free throws.

---

Didn't see game but can't imagine a game where both teams score 100 points with the game winner with 1.4 seconds left (bouncing on rim several times before dropping)

The 1.4 seconds 3/4 court shot also almost went in

Might be the game of the tournament

This is a serious question.

How is Grand Canyon University able to field a better basketball team than us?

Like do they even have NIL funds?

---

A look at their roster shows their top 10 in minutes played include:
6 seniors
2 juniors
2 sophs

Among them:
6 transfers in this season
2 transfers in last season
2 who started at GCU

I suspect their academic requirements are a few notches below Cal, they seem to do a lot of online degrees.

Bottom line to both posts: Moving forward it's cool to still play all pac 12 teams - except Arizona.

---

I am done with the Pac12.

---

I'm still OK with the Pac-2, OSU and WSU.

…and I'd like to go to my grave having rolled out the Beavers jokes at least one a year.

How are they able to get so many transfers without NIL. Or do they have NIL? If so, where the heck is it coming from?

Are they just getting the kids who don't have the grades to get into anywhere else? It's all very perplexing

The TV announcer pointed out some big GCU supporter in the crowd but I don't remember his name. NIL could explain all of the newcomers.

Atlantic 10: 2-0
ACC: 4-1
Big 12: 5-3
Big East: 3-0
Big Ten: 4-2
Mountain West: 3-4

Only UofA advances out of second round. Still a decent showing.

The TV analysts guys that did the program asked the team what an antelope was (their mascot), most had no idea nor had they ever visited the Grand Canyon. LOL.

My four-year-old knew what an antelope was! (However, now he's fifteen and may have forgotten. Dude doesn't even know his dinosaurs anymore. Sure knows about Discord though... )

Andy Enfield is taking Mrs. Enfield and his .600 record at U$C to SMU.

I watched a few minutes of Utah vs VCU in the NIT

Not to watch Utah, but to watch KK

Not a great game for him ... 4 points on 1-8 shooting (including 0-4 from deep), 1 rebound

Utah won by twenty

Forgetting that 2K had ended up at VCU, I happened upon that game and was like, "I know that guy!"

Best wishes to Kuany Kuany.
