College Basketball Today with Tani Levitt

After a slow Monday, college basketball is back with a vengeance on Tuesday. #16 North Carolina @ #3Iowa and #6Illinois @ #10Duke headline night 1 of the B1G Ten / ACC Challenge, and #8 Creighton @ #5 Kansas is also must-watch. All that and more on College Basketball Today

Tani breaks down the weekend in college basketball, and reflects on the successful week and half of Bubbleville in the Mohegan Sun.

SEC intrigue (Kentucky sucks and Mizzou is... good?) - 19:48

Coming in for an evening episode, Tani recaps the end of Maui, as well as the Jimmy V Classic and Champions Classic. Kentucky can't shoot, Duke has no bigs, and Texas looks real good (so good that Tani forgot about Kansas.... Yikes). But the story of the week is Gonzaga, who beat West Virginia despite losing star freshman Jalen Suggs for some of the game, and him playing injured for the rest. They play Baylor in an epic 1 vs 2 matchup on Saturday, and until we hear otherwise, it's Gonzaga's world, and we're just living in it. 

The Maui Invitational tipped off (in Asheville, North Carolina) with 4 solid games. North Carolina won by almost 30 but started down 13-0 to UNLV, so Tani digs into the Tar Heels slow starts. And in the late window Stanford blew Alabama out, but Tani is still concerned. All that and a look ahead to tomorrow's games. 

Gonzaga played its game against Auburn on Friday despite having a positive COVID-19 test earlier that morning. They followed state and local health guidelines, but did they make the right choice for College Basketball? Tani has thoughts.

Plus, three top-10 teams drop games early. Who has the most to worry about, Villanova, Virginia, or Kentucky?

Tani unpacks a busy Thanksgiving in college basketball land, rants on behalf of student-fans, makes the case for Illinois to win the Big Ten, and previews the weekend's games.
