Yesterday was a weirdly busy day in college basketball, where for some reason (likely to do with TV schedules becoming official) the CBS Sports Classic, Big 12-SEC Challenge and Champion’s Classic all announced start-times for their games.
It was a flurry of college hoops excitement the likes of which we haven’t seen since the NBA Draft deadline, and with it, daydreaming of the season ahead. When you can set your calendar for games like Kentucky-Duke, Kansas-Kentucky, West Virginia-Tennessee, Kentucky-North Carolina, Kansas-Michigan State etc., well, I mean, what’s better than that?
With all the news though, it got me really wanting to set my calendar- not just with the handful of games in those three events but with ALL the big games in college basketball this upcoming season.
