    It was actually Utah Valley, which is even worse.

    This new rule allowing for a Class B technical foul if a player is judged to be flopping? It's a disaster just waiting to happen. There's no way officials should have to judge on the run if it's an honest effort to draw a charge, or a deliberate flop.

    I just know this is going to decide a few games and people are going to scream bloody murder.

    I’m watching VCU-Pitt and I hate myself for it. Two things.

    1) Pitt has twins from the Canary Islands

    2) Pitt has a dude named Federiko Federiko from Finland.

    Will he play against Bol Bol this season?

    And none of them can play, I imagine.
    Remember a decade ago when the ACC thought it was upgrading by taking Syracuse and Pitt? And then when it thought it had a good deal by replacing departed Maryland with University-6?
    I'm going to revise my prediction: Capel doesn't make it to New Year's Day.

    Hey, at least you don't have to worry about the Mitchell twins this year, unless you have Arkansas on the schedule. :)

    I'm an adjunct VCU fan because a bunch of my friends either work there or went to school there, so I have some rooting interest. I also like that Tech and VCU never seem to play each other so I can root for both.

    40 years ago I covered a Washington State-Tennessee game, and the Cougars' quarterback was named Samoa Samoa.

    Central Arkansas is playing Niagara in ... Dublin? How strange.
