Qunit Kessenich was at the EagleBank Bowl as a sideline reporter, not in Morgantown for Miami/WV

Despite the obvious suckitude of Xavier-Duke, CBS should've had a tripleheader this weekend. It's not like there was a definite clamor for whatever taped skateboarding event they showed earlier. That could've been pushed to next week because they have only one game next Saturday (WVU-Ohio State).

Raftery: "Michigan with the one timeout left."

I expect MSU radio play-by-play man Will Tieman to make that mistake, not Raftery.

Anon - I know, I copied and pasted from this week's schedule posted earlier this week.

I don't know who the hell was on the call for that game.

Criqui: "97 years old, John Wooden."

I thought Wooden was 98.

Coincidentally, could CBS switch out of this game? Stephen Curry can shoot Davidson back into the game, but not down by 29.

...Thank you.

Gus Johnson + OT in UCONN/Gonzaga = is it March already?
