Despite trailing for most of the game, Nova nearly hit the KenPom number (77-71), winning 76-71.
UNC/NC State currently airing on ESPN. Carolina up late in the first half in a major game of runs.
South Carolina hosting Mississippi State, keeping it close late in the first half. Not expecting them to win this one but it would be nice.
Gonna be a great day for Michigan without playing a game. Villanova gets a win over ranked St. Johns, North Carolina is getting a win on the road over a top 15 NC State team, and if South Carolina hangs on and beats top 15 Mississippi State it’s a tri-fecta.
South Carolina with the big win over top 15 Mississippi State. Good day for Michigan’s resume.
UNC getting demolished by Louisville at home.
Big time letdown game after the emotional victory over NC State in Raleigh. Carolina never looked remotely ready to play today.
A nice reminder that good teams can have awful games. Hopefully we remember that on here when we inevitably drop a dumb game to someone we shouldn’t.
I’m sure everyone will be completely calm and rational if Michigan loses a home game by 20 points.
Hey, I didn’t say I expect it to happen🤷♂️
Hoping that Providence can pull this one out at Georgetown. Up 71-70, about to shoot two FTs with 3.9 left.
EDIT: PC up three with Georgetown inbounding from under their own basket. C’mon, Friars!
Good lord, Hoyas bank it in from 35 feet to tie it.
30+ foot banked three to tie it for Georgetown. OT.
Hoya guy just flopped big time to draw a foul on a three-pointer.
30 foot three to tie it for Georgetown. 2OT.
Really poor defense on that possession for PC. Left that Hoya dude wide open from about 28 feet.
If Villanova can hang on here that’d be a quality win for them on the road at Creighton. Hopefully South Carolina can beat Missouri as well.
Yep, Villanova is quietly right in the front of the Big East race once again (although the Big East isn’t particularly good).
South Carolina being decent helps a bit, but they are still way down there in the NET (~150) so they are a Q3 win at best.
Right. But if South Carolina is one of the worst teams Michigan beat not including the low and mid majors, and they keep winning, it raises Michigan’s resume floor some, per say. Just fighting for every inch like Fantasy Football stats 
Ha, fair enough. Michigan’s NC SOS… ugly. Down to 300th on KenPom, but the Big Ten is good enough and Michigan won enough key games early that it won’t probably end up mattering that much.
Don’t see how Michigan isn’t an eventual one seed barring serious injuries.
They’re just flat out the best team in the B1G.
That tournament yielded disappointingly little, especially with Providence’s injury, but a few things pretty much salvage the poor nonconference strength:
