Episode Description

Reese, Pam and Alex discuss UNC and Duke winning, college basketball rankings and more.

Both the Duke Blue Devils and the North Carolina Tar Heels came away with wins last night. Duke dominated Army in West Point, cruising to a dominant 114-59 victory in a game that also featured a tribute to former coach Mike Krzyzewski. Meanwhile, North Carolina handled Radford at home, earning an 89-74 win. Both victories continue solid early-season momentum for the storied rivals.

The Kentucky Wildcats fell to the Louisville Cardinals last night, 96-88. Louisville’s freshman guard Mikel Brown Jr. put on a show, scoring 29 points to lead the Cardinals to their first win over Kentucky in five years. The victory moved Louisville to 3-0 on the season, while Kentucky dropped to 2-1 in what could be an early statement game for the Cardinals.

What are the college basketball rankings? What teams in college basketball will be a problem?
