Baylor and Villanova were expected to face each other at the beginning of the 2020-21 college basketball season, but Baylor had to pull out of the Empire Classic in Connecticut. The two teams were ranked in the top three at the time, so it is fitting we get to finally see the Bears and Wildcats on the same court during the NCAA Basketball Tournament's second weekend.

Death. Taxes. The NCAA Tournament selection committee woefully under-seeding Saint Mary's. Yep, this is March, alright.

 

After shocking No. 1-ranked Gonzaga in the West Coast Conference championship game, Saint Mary's — a team ranked No. 31 overall in KenPom.com metrics — was given an 11-seed, playing on the other side of the country, against the defending national champion.

It’s never too early for an NFL mock draft, right?

 

OK, so there’s a lot that we don’t know. We don’t know the draft order, because the standings will see major changes over the next five weeks. We don’t know which coaches will be fired, changing the direction and priority of several franchises. And we don’t know which underclassmen will actually declare for the draft.

Thanksgiving hasn’t been the same since the Texas A&M and Missouri started hanging out with the SEC. Or since West Virginia and Pitt started rolling with the Big 12 and ACC, respectively.

 

Conference realignment ended a handful of traditional rivalries, either because of scheduling conflicts or acrimonious relationships.

 

In other words, no more Texas-Texas A&M. No more Backyard Brawl. No more Border War.
