Our college basketball writer has spent a good portion of the first two weeks of the season camped out in his recliner watching hoops. Here are 10 things he's learned early in the season:
1. The Big Ten is ... good?
Let's just start with Michigan dismantling Villanova, the reigning NCAA champs. Then take into account Top 25 upsets by Indiana (over No. 24 Marquette) and Iowa (against No. 13 Oregon) and an overall Gavitt Tipoff Games victory. Right now, the Big Ten is good.
2. Duke!
Forget for a minute the Blue Devils are a bit top heavy with their triumvirate of electric freshmen.
