Georgetown just shot 1/23 from the field in the second half of its 56-50 loss at DePaul. Shot just 22.3 percent for the game.

Shout out to the guy who created a bsky account for the purpose of making this single post a few weeks ago.
You wanna explain why you have Georgetown 78 but AP poll has them 29? You’re way off dude

Incredible final-possession play by Penn State out of the timeout.

Came back, then un-came back in OT. Now there's a guy making three's for San Diego State who has 5 fouls.

This Boise State - San Diego State game is so dumb

Luke Littler is still him

I'm going to be kind of obsessed about average 2PA distance the rest of the season. GW (4th best in 2PA distance) and Houston (5th worst) are currently playing in separate games, and here's what their respective 1st half shot charts look like if you want to see what the extremes look like.

I love me some continuation, but that was certainly a stretch. Definitely some clutch anticipation by the bench guys to prevent a multi-game suspension.
January 3, 2026 at 6:38 AM
Clearly intent to foul but a pretty liberal interpretation of the continuation rule. (And then changing it and re-changing it, yikes.)

I'd like to report an insta-loss in Berkeley. (It was on an absolutely awful call for a four-point play to give the Cal the win, but nonetheless, it's part of the risk of giving a foul up three.)

Seattle U beat Gonzaga by 22 in their last meeting and is threatening to do it again, up 11 with 11:25 left. (Their last meeting was in 1980, but nevertheless.)

After a wedgie in the USC-Michigan game, John Fanta claimed it was unverifiable whether that was the first of 2026, but wedgies are (or can be, at least) recorded in PBP now! That was the 94th of the season and fourth of 2026.

Made some long-overdue updates to the graphics for 2026:
-PPG replaced ORtg.
-Now tracking avg 2pt attempt distance (bc @kenpom.com does).
-Bar rankings are among 2022-25 NCAA Tourney teams.
-Confusing Glass Cleaner archetype icon has been split into Pogo Sticks (bouncy rebound/dunk) and Swatters.

Diabolical timing for @kenpom.com to drop a new feature on the site — average 2-point attempt distance.

Michigan ranks 27th in average 2PA distance on offense and (unexpectedly) 1st on defense.

George Mason committed zero turnovers in an 80-75 win against La Salle today, which is just the fifth time a team committed zero turnovers against a D-I team in the last 30 years.

Baylor has landed an in-season free agent who was an NBA pick in 2023. The news set the college sports world aflame.

I talked to Scott Drew this morning about why he did it, but more than that, laid out just how increasingly common rostering pros is becoming in college sports.

Baylor and Drew are catching heat, but they are far from the only ones utilizing an NCAA rule that's enabling in-season free agency

No, we're not going down that road. It's all what you do on the court now. Some would say their preseason rating was inflated anyway.

He'd have to play the anthem if my scenario works out.

Starting to entertain the possibility of Duke, Duke Miles, and Duke Brennan all making the Final Four.

Campbell posted a program record 1.54 points per possession in their win over Green Bay today.

OK, neat thing about this Prairie View/LSU game is that there were 77 total free throws (that's not neat, can we go to quarters, please?). Among the 2,400 games in the last 30 seasons with at least 70 FTA, this game had the highest combined FT% (89.6)
LSU shot 49 FTs and were in the bonus with over 16 minutes left in the second half, they were also losing at that point.
