@MattNorlander Hypothesizing something here: Duke ➡️ East, Michigan ➡️ Midwest, Arizona ➡️ West, and Iowa State (or Houston) ➡️ South.
UConn is No. 5 on the S-curve and goes with Michigan, leaving Houston, Illinois, Purdue.
Houston would be locked in the East with No. 1 overall Duke, no?
English
Something to note for UConn: If last night's performance catalyzes them to grabbing the final 1-seed on Sel. Sunday, the likelihood in that scenario is UConn would be 1 in the South. If it's the best 2 and Duke is the No. 1 overall, UConn would surely get shipped to the Midwest.

Overnight column on UConn's 72-40 evisceration of St. John's. It's arguably the worst loss of Pitino's career. It's the win that may get UConn the final 1-seed. It's the game that could spin these two in drastically different directions over the next month.cbssports.com/college-basket…

@FPL__Raptor For those still with the FH, should we worry about price falls for AFCON players?
I've got Mbuemo and was planning to sell to Fernandes. However, thinking about selling Minteh for Bruno, then Mbuemo out next week or the week after to have both for this week.

Are there any transfers you are thinking about making and want my opinion on?
What are your benching headaches for GW16?
Any other questions?

Swap Syracuse if you care about BC and Pitt as a protected rivalry.
Make it an 8-year rotation if you care about home-and-homes. Regardless, you have balanced schedules and easy tiebreakers.

Within 4 years, you can play all 17 teams — for the 6-team pods, you have 3 non-pod games every year and get through the other 11 (with one repeat).
You can shuffle the groups every 4 years for balance, if needed. But all traditional rivalries are preserved.

James Madison should absolutely get the CFP spot over Duke. But the easy solution is PODS. And yes, let me give the short version…
Ben Portnoy@bportnoy15
I’m only half-kidding when I ask this: Are we sure an 8-5 Duke team would get in over James Madison? I’m not convinced they should…
English
Some extremely close guesses but no winner yet. I will say, the weight is over 30 but under 35 and the second decimal is a 0.
So the answer is 3X.X0
Good luck. And thank you @OGIO.

🚨 Giveaway time! I have an extra @OGIO bag exactly like this one that I'll give away to the first person who ... 1. Is subscribed to the Normal Sport newsletter (free, link in bio) AND 2. Guesses the exact weight (lbs.) of this bag with my clubs in it (2 decimal places).

Haven’t been on here in a while, but this is news worthy of a tweet. I remember being in the DMN newsroom a little less than six years ago with Joe telling me how badly he wanted this specific job.
Now he’s got it, and it is absolutely earned and so deserved!

Some personal news ~ I’m heading back to The Dallas Morning News as their newest Dallas Cowboys beat reporter. I start next week. @dallasnews has held a special place in my heart since my internship there nine years ago. It’s truly a home for me, and I can’t wait to go back.

There was no coach I enjoyed covering more for the @DukeChronicle than Chris Pollard, and he opened so many doors I didn’t think were possible for Duke baseball. I hope he knocks that last door down for himself at UVA, and I hope Duke meets him in Omaha when it happens.

A fun interview this weekend with Gov. Josh Shapiro about the Eagles, the most popular Pennsylvanian, a potential new stadium, and so much more...

@RobDauster It has been like this for YEARS. I don't know how the ACC hasn't told Wake that getting new cameras is a must. Makes the games unwatchable.
English
I don’t know what it is but it feels like the broadcast for Duke-Wake Forest is jaundiced. Why is it so yellow?
English
@statsbywill This has been a frequent offline topic with my fellow Duke alums. It's not just that there are so few big opportunities, but way more that any loss (other than at Clemson or UNC) is likely Q2 and potentially Q3.
English
this inspired a thought: what is the worst ACC record Duke can produce and still get a 1 seed? I think they’ve gotta go at least 18-2 against a slate this weak, no?
JBR@JBRBracketology
Duke's updated KenPom page is hilarious. -Projected 19-1 ACC record -26.0% chance at going undefeated in ACC -Minimum win probability in each remaining game is 72%, including @ Clemson and @ North Carolina -86+% win probability in 14 of 16 remaining ACC games Also random but awesome: -Duke will play Illinois Feb 22nd at Madison Square Garden!

@denizselman33 Can you explain how the "points" are calculated?
English
If #Eagles & Vikings finish 15-2, strength of victory will determine NFC 1 seed. I prepared a color-coded chronological guide of all relevant games. Some games count more than others (see points associated w/each).
Vikings need only 14 of 38 possible points.
Eagles need 25.
Deniz Selman@denizselman33
Updated NFC 1 seed scenarios: #Eagles are just one more DET loss + one MIN loss away from controlling their own fate for the NFC 1 seed.

I don't know if Arkansas State has had a better assistant during the Butch Jones era than @CoachAKwon. One heck of a recruiter and someone who's consistently developed players into potential pros.
Kara Richey@Kara_Richey
UCLA is targeting Arkansas State assistant Andy Kwon to be their offensive line coach.
English
@JakePavorsky It's not solely the HC, but I think it's the combination of him and some of "his guys" blending with Moore/Nussmeier. For whatever reason, it's been better but not consistent, and I don't know how it gets there with Sirianni still in charge.
English
I still think Hurts flaws are not a death sentence and should be relatively easy to work around. This offense still lacks any creativity whatsoever. They’re the worst screening team in the league. All that stuff falls on the HC.
English
The Eagles/Hurts issues are the same as last year. Flawed system that relies heavily on players winning matchups vs. scheming guys open & a QB who makes slow progressions and doesn’t like throwing into traffic. The difference now is a great defense and elite RB + better vibes.
