12 hours ago ago from Jake and Kyle

I love college basketball and all its traditions but, the regular season is getting to the point were it doesn't mean a whole lot.  The funny thing about college basketball is the 65 teams make it into March Madness and still coaches and teams complain that they didn't make it in.
