ANOTHER SEASON SWEEP 🐊🧹 @WellsFargo

@MattBrownCFB Temple-Notre Dame getting Gameday and ABC on Halloween for me

Michigan-UConn sticks in my brain as a particularly strange ABC prime-time football game from 2013

UConn can be the first team in 51 years to win three titles in four years. Michigan can snap the Big Ten’s 0-8 championship streak. Discussing strategy, injuries and how both programs can make history. Read free— open.substack.com/pub/jdbcollege… #marchmadness #finalfour #uconn #goblue

@trillydonovan @Wendys Did the Storr ™️

This transfer is presented by @Wendys 4 for 4.

Since 2020, every national champion has featured at least five returning players in its rotation. Michigan features two. The Wolverines are trying to win a national championship a new, and unconventional, way— open.substack.com/pub/jdbcollege… #finalfour #michigan

Tarris Reed Jr. led UConn in points, rebounds, assists, blocks and steals in the win over Duke. The weekend prior, he scored 31 with 27 boards against Furman. Why he deserves more recognition and a film review of his tremendous (and underrated) March— open.substack.com/pub/jdbcollege…

Since the opening night of the season back in November, Arizona has been the best and most consistent team in the country. More on the Wildcats’ well-rounded roster and incredible statistical season— Read: open.substack.com/pub/jdbcollege… #arizona #marchmadness

JAMAL MURRAY: NIKOLA JOKIC: 53 POINTS 23 POINTS 9 THREES 21 REBOUNDS 5 REBOUNDS 19 ASSISTS UNREAL STATS. 🤯🤯

Nebraska-Vanderbilt was a perfect basketball game. It was thrilling for 40 minutes, had an all-time ending and was a game that should never be forgotten. Why putting it up against the best games ever isn’t absurd— open.substack.com/pub/jdbcollege… #marchmadness #nebraska

@roofing2fish @FloridaBBHour If you think we’re losing bc of Pat Adams you’re out of your mind. Just got outplayed and outshot for a half, relax

@FloridaBBHour I'm hoping Pat Adams chokes on his whistle this second half and is forced into a permanent retirement.

Notable first half +/-: Vanderbilt Tyler Tanner + 12 Tyler Nickel + 12 Duke Miles + 11 Jayde Leverett + 11 Florida Xaivian Lee = 15 Alex Condon - 15 Rueben Chinyelu - 12 Urban Klavzar - 1

@DFLBthree @ryanhammer09 And auburn took a Q4 team to OT. The NET/quad system has completely screwed over mid majors since it was implemented. Just appreciate the season; this team should be in no questions asked

THIS TEAM. 31-0, in the history books. Game of the year & Miami finds a way AGAIN. Like they’ve done all year. Resilient & still unbeaten. Unbelievable. UNREAL

Miami University does it. 31-0. Only four other teams have had perfect regular seasons since the NCAA Tournament expanded to 64 teams; each of them earned one seeds. I’m not arguing for that, but here’s why Miami should be an at-large lock— open.substack.com/pub/jdbcollege… #miami
