This might need a poll. #6 Baylor and #14 Gonzaga are playing right now. What's the weirdest thing about this?
1. It's Friday night.
2. It's taking place in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
3. It's the Peacock Classic, airing exclusively on Peacock.
4. Boardroom: "Participating players will have the opportunity to partner with event sponsors to promote the game through NIL deals."
5. A combined 11 players from these current rosters also played in the 2021 NCAA championship game, which was 20 months ago.
Surprisingly, I'm watching. I didn't realize signing up for the Peacock streaming service last week (Black Friday, 99 cents/month) would bear fruit so quickly.
