I think the most important teams we should be following the rest of the year would be Duke, SDSU, Auburn, Iowa state & Baylor….and rooting against them. (Like I needed more of a reason to root against Satan & Dook)

Iowa state goes to Houston tonight
Baylor @ BYU tmr
SDSU @ Utah State tmr
Duke @ Miami Wednesday
Houston @ Baylor Saturday
West Virginia @ Iowa State Saturday
Duke @ Wake Forest Saturday
Auburn @ Georgia Saturday

Turn on the Illini women on Fox. We’re winning against number 14 Indiana at the half, 44-28.

How dare you not worship at the feet of Caitlin Clark!!!! /s

The over the top love fest is tough to deal with. She deserves accolades, no doubt. Very good player. Pistol Pete she isn’t.

I don’t know… she’s a ton of fun to watch, and as someone with a daughter who love ball it’s super cool how much attention she’s bringing to women’s basketball.

A guard scoring 44 points a game for his career playing in the 60's with no shot clock and no three point line is so insane I feel like the sports world has never even been able to process it.

Maravich's all time record for total points in NCAA history was done in 83 total games. Quincy Guerrier has played 156 games so far in his career, just as a point of comparison.

Perhaps the most entertaining athlete (in his sport) in the history of the world.

Pistol Pete was NOT just a generational athlete , he is a HISTORIAL athlete..............

Watched him on the Jefferson-Pilot game of the week back then and was just amazed at what he could do with a BB in his hands.....
Purest shooter I have ever seen and his moves left me always saying " How did he do that " ??.................His teammates always had to be aware of Pete with the ball in his hands as he would make razor sharp passes leading to a bucket......

His shooting range really was really anywhere inside the half court line.......If he was playing now , with the rules in place , he would probably average at least 50 PPG and be the NCAA POTY for as many years as he played......

There is a documentary on Pistol Pete that goes into his off court issues with his dad and the acclaim from the media and fans everywhere , even after he got out of the NBA.........

He is in MY top 5 all time favorite players ever.....He really really is.......................JMHO..............

At least they spelled Indiana correctly.

Looks like they stole Rutgers practice jerseys and stuck their name on them.

50 PPG? Probably closer to 60 - just with the 3 point line. He averaged over 44 with everything a 2.
