It's here... my second favorite sports season: College Hoops!

Maryland put the smack down on Butler last night... lots of doubters with the departure of Melo Trimble, but the Terps look primed to create some chaos this year. I think they're going to be a presence in the Big 10... especially with the maturation of their 7-ft Junior center and the promising early season presence of a 6'10 245lb freshman in the middle. They should be 7-0 heading into a Nov 27 matchup against Syracuse in the Big 10/ACC Challenge.

I’m a fan as well Todd. There’s honestly not many sports I don’t enjoy. I’ve never really been into NBA BB, soccer, and hockey but other than that I avidly follow the rest. Mizzou basketball has been rather depressing for quite some time but alas it looks like we might be turning the corner. I think they should finally make the tournament this year. Tough game today against Texas A&M who we’ve never fared well against.

Mizzou looking good so far considering we lost our top recruit in the first game. Cuonzo Martin is the coach we’ve been looking for and has maximized the talent on the floor. Michael Porter Jr. coming back for the tourney should make for a dangerous squad.

I'm much the same... although I enjoy hockey (not an avid fan, but going to see the Caps live is a lot of fun).

Maryland's season has been tough. Major injuries pretty much ruined their chances at a sure-shot bid. I think they're on the outside of the bubble at the moment.
