Shot chart between Purdue (left) and Alabama (right) a sight to behold. Twenty-one first-half 3-point attempts from the Crimson Tide. Boilermakers lead 43-41 at the half.

Big Alabama games are so much fun to watch. We as CBB viewers are fortunate that Oats schedules like a lunatic so that we get a ton of these massive shootouts

Raft and Benetti are all over it, but this is a completely different game when Mara is looming over the proceedings

Wake Forest's transition defense is horrendous. It's like they're surprised that Michigan wants to run. Not great prep

I can watch ESPN Plus on my phone but not my iPad. Why? No one in the world knows, not even the people who designed ESPN Plus

At some point, you'd guess Maryland should try putting in the guards who are good at basketball

I did not think “books will have a hard time with them” would actually mean “books are just not even gonna try”

Heard on Big Ten Network: “Steve Pikiell’s team, the offense has run dry” It’s nice to wrap yourself in the warm blanket of familiarity

Is Ohio State the modern day Runnin Rebels? Just how important is Jeremy Fears Jr? Is Penn State really going to struggle that much? I made my debut on @basket_review where I recapped day one of Big Ten basketball, and gave some observations I had https://t.co/9e35luK8RO

Let us know what you think of this format for the in-season shows! Felt like a good way to hit some key points from a statistical lens, hopefully the listeners enjoy it
