  1. Sports Reference says we beat Kansas 76-69 on Feb. 27, 1968 in the Coliseum. Winner!
  2. I watched my first on Dec. 18, 1970, in the Coliseum, versus Miami (Fla.) in a tournament, probably called the Cornhusker Classic. The Huskers, behind 20 points from Marvelous Marvin Stewart and 12 rebounds by Leapin' Leroy Chalk, defeated the Hurricanes 85-58. Ironically, I covered the Huskers for The DN in the early '80s, and I covered the Hurricanes in 1987-88. That 1970-71 season was Miami's last until the university revived the program in 1985.
  3. Times will be announced later. Nebraska-Texas A&M and Houston-Longwood will be in the same session. New Mexico-Clemson and Baylor-Colgate will be the other session's games Friday in Memphis.
  4. Expert analysis from Jay Wright about MSU and the "tore-nuh-munt": "MSU is playing very well right now. They haven't won any games, but they're playing really well." Sounds about right, except for the first part.
  5. Cultish vibe with a new AD who reminds me of Reverend Lovejoy.
  6. Yep. Duke game first-round game times recently: 2019: 7 p.m. ET 2020: NO tournament 2021: 6:30 p.m. ET 2022: 7 p.m. ET 2023: 7:30 p.m. ET
  7. The game times are determined by the television partners. They generally space out the top teams in terms of potential audience in order to max out ratings throughout the day. For example, in the 2023 tournament, both No. 1 Kansas and No. 1 Alabama played in the 2-5 p.m. ET window on Thursday, while No. 1 Houston played after 9 p.m. that night. Kansas played the first game of that two-game session, but Alabama played the second. Houston also played the final game of its session. The fourth No. 1, Purdue, played at 6:50 p.m. on Friday, the first game of the session. In other words, the 2023 top seeds: 1. Kansas played the first game in an afternoon session. 1. Alabama played the second game in an afternoon session. 1. Purdue played the first game in an evening session. 1. Houston played the second game in an evening session.
  8. Another note on that season: Phog Allen's worst team was in 1949, while the Huskers had one of their best under Harry Good. Future major leaguer Bob Cerv played for the Huskers. Cluade Retherford and Milt "Bus" Whitehead were all-Big Seven for the Huskers. Also, lots of bad shooting and not a lot of patience pre-shot clock.

  9. What a grand tradition of hairstyles for Illinois basketball coaches. It started with the "Lou 'Do," the ultimate combover that fooled nobody, especially Lou Henson's wife. They followed that with Lon Kruger's '90s TV evangelist style. Up next, of course, was @billselfstoupee in its earliest manifestations. Next, silver-helmeted Bruce Weber and the utterly bald Jon Groce graced the sidelines. Today, we're left with Just for Men Named Brad Underwood's dye job. To the Illini and their magnificent coaching coifs! Hurray.
