2025-26 DWBB

After our win today, and Carolina's loss to Stanford, we are now atop the ACC standings at 4-0.
It will most likely be a multi team tie after the rest of today's game, but that's a very nice spot to be this early in the season.

Virginia has just been taken into overtime by 5-10 FSU. I think the ACC is a 3-team race between Duke, Louisville, and NCState.
 
LSU lost their 2nd game in a row!! Blakes with 30 pts and is CLUTCH down the stretch. I guess the cupcake diet is not good for you in the long run. But they did set some scoring records. They can eat those awards with extra sprinkles.

HA! I was way wrong in my prediction, lol. I'll be shocked if they aren't at least 25th in the Coaches though.
As expected, ND did drop out.

Only one ACC team in the top 10 (Louisville at 10) and only one other team (Heels) ranked at all. (They fell six to 22)

Don't feel bad, as much as we'd like to see it, it's meaningless. These people only look at records. I mean, uNC is ranked and doesn't have a single decent win. At this point, I give more credence to bracketology.

We're up to #19 in the NET.
 
The least heralded member of our recruiting class, center Taylor Sofilkanich, has a big sister who is starting for the #9 team in the country (Michigan). She's averaging 9 points (on 62%) and 4 rebounds in 16 minutes. And she was not rated as highly as Taylor.

One never knows how a player will develop. Did anyone expect Jordan Wood to be such a contributor? But what a class Kara has signed!

For the little that it's worth at this point in the season, Creme has moved us from the outside in, going off the bubble to a 7 seed.
Side note, "Bracketology" has a new look starting this week. It's interactive, and you can click on a team to see their history up to the current week.

Surprise! He has us meeting Maryland in the Sweet 16 (if both make it that far).

That's one thing I would almost put money on...that the committee will try to engineer a Duke/Maryland matchup.

I agree on that for sure.

I think this is funny, and a great "This post did not age well" example.

Louisville Cardinals at Notre Dame Fighting Irish​

Jan. 15: 6 p.m., ACCN (South Bend, Indiana)

With the ACC preseason No. 1 and No. 2 teams, Duke and NC State, not playing up to expectations in the first two months, the Cardinals and Fighting Irish might be the new conference favorites. This game could determine if that's indeed the case. These two teams will also play each other in their regular-season finales, so we could be looking at a de facto championship game preview.

Today, he has ND with a lower seed (8) than Duke (7), The Irish/Cards game should still be a good one, but it probably ain't a championship preview.
