Well, '07 has come to an end. I'd do a whole College Hoops Journal: Year in Review type thing, but, well...it's only been chugging for about two months. Let's hope that I'm still pumping out the basketball love next year and can do something along those lines. --No. 1 North Carolina 90, Valparaiso 58. God, what do you think? HANSBROUGH. AGAIN. Twenty-three points, 12 boards, and he's probably the POTY at ... Read More
Fields Felled
Pittsburgh was ranked 6th in the nation as of Saturday afternoon. But by the evening they...well...they were still ranked 6th. That's sure to change tomorrow, however, and it should be interesting to see how far they fall now that their floor leader has been sidelined due to a broken foot. Levance Fields went down pretty hard in the game against Dayton on Saturday and will be out at least two months. ... Read More

Obligatory Belichick Picture Here
There's some news to report from the world of women's basketball. I know, I've kind of slacked in that area, but when something notable (ridiculous) comes about, I'll be here to inform you. What's today's news? Just your typical drubbing, you know, that 119-point win type of variety. Uh....what? The 119-point margin of victory was three points shy of the NCAA Division II record. West Texas A&M defeated National Christian 155-33 ... Read More

It's the biggest rundown of the season so far. Why waste space here? --UPSET--Dayton 80, No. 6 Pittsburgh 55. Embarassing. Yes, for me. I said that Pitt would produce a win in the fashion that Dayton executed. Uh, whoops. Oh yeah, bad for the Panthers too. See, this is the kind of loss that will prevent people from thinking that the Panthers are legitimate Final Four contender. How do you lose ... Read More
Wisconsin Gets a Great Road W
I was debating upon whether or not to make a post on this game due to the fact that there's still plenty of ball ahead of us on this Saturday, and maybe this won't be the best game/finish of the day. But why not? Right? We all love us some orange ball. The formerly thought-to-be-by-some best team in the nation Texas Longhornrs were felled by the Badgers Michael Flowers, 67-66. Note: ... Read More

It's nice to have a healthy diet of college basketball back in our lives. --No. 4 Washington State 67, North Carolina A&T 34. Yeah the Cougars still haven't lost and it's time you started paying some attention. At 12-0, they're a very well-balanced team and, I can't believe this, but have a legitimate shot at a 1 seed if they can handle UCLA in the Pac-10. Much easier said than done, ... Read More

Well, sort of. See, I'm sure you don't have time to go searching for all the games and see when they're going to be played, so here's a handful I'll throw at you to keep your fresh.

Butler vs. Southern Illinois, It’s a Post-Christmas Christmas Present!
What a nice game for a Friday night. It's the CHJ-slurped Butler Bulldogs (11-1) playing the plighted Southern Illinois Salukis in a return game from last year's BracketBusters. I can't ask for much more on a Friday night (well, I guess I could, but follow me here). The game comes as a much needed one for a Southern Illinois team that currently sits at a shocking 5-5. A win here ... Read More
The Student Section Supports: Oklahoma @ West Virginia
This is the fourth week of “The Student Section Supportsâ€, where CHJ takes a look at one specific matchup that has the potential to either be a surprising upset or an extremely tight game between two evenly matched teams. Generally speaking, this segment will steer clear of the top, marquee matchups due to the fact that there will be plenty of press about those games anyway. So this week ... Read More

Light load, but back to biznass... --No. 1 North Carolina 106, Nevada 70. While I was very impressed with Memphis' win over Georgetown last weekend, I still voted the Heels as top dog. Does this win prove my notion? No, but it was a typical UNC win; they pulled away right before the first half and cruised for the final 20 minutes. Hansbrough had 26 points and the ever-improving Wayne Ellington ... Read More

BlogPoll, December 26
Each week, a handful of us college hoops bloggers put together our own version of a Top 25 poll to make ourselves feel just a little more important (our tiny voices matter, too!). Here is what we have assessed, as a group, with any of the AP rankings that differ from any of ours for each team set in parentheses and first places votes in bold. Obviously, if there are ...

Anniversaries Are Fun!
I've always wanted to feel the feeling of sitting on top of a rim, though it looks a little painful. Maybe one day when I defeat a bunch of 11-year-olds in a one-on-five game I could get my opportunity. I digress. And I'm sorry that I'm a day late on this, but FanHouse has also made mention of it, the fact that yesterday marked the 25th anniversary of the biggest ... Read More
