Blind resume season is going to be tough on Wisconsin's CFP chances

Blind resume season is going to be tough on Wisconsin. That's going to be bad luck. It's going to be like, here are four teams that have beaten three top ten teams, and then there's Wisconsin that has beaten a team ranked number 80.

Wisconsin finished the regular season 12-0 but remained at #4 until losing the Big Ten Title game to Ohio State, which ultimately kept them out of the playoff. The 'blind resume' was indeed their biggest hurdle.

I am going to love hating Grayson Allen this college basketball season

Grayson Allen is back. Hating Grayson Allen is back. He played all 40 minutes [against Michigan State]. He scored 37 points... and I am going to love hating Grayson Allen this year.

The 2017-18 season was indeed Grayson Allen's senior year and he remained a polarizing figure throughout Duke's run to the Elite Eight.

College basketball point spreads are constantly ruined by excessive fouling at the end of games

In college basketball, they will foul until the end of time, and every single point spread will be ruined. A team could be down four points with 30 seconds left... they will foul until the end of time, and every single point spread will be ruined.

This is a subjective grievance, though widely shared by the betting community.

Tom Izzo is an overrated basketball coach

Yes, and let's not forget it's also the start of Coach [Tom] Izzo's overrated season. We were the first ones on that bandwagon like a year and a half ago, so I'm going to restake my claim on that.

Subjective coaching evaluation; Izzo continued to reach the tournament consistently but did not win another title after 2000.

Duke would have won the National Championship by 50 points if they had reached the final.

I think if Duke plays in the championship game, they win by 50. Easily. That was a wasted opportunity.

This is a hyperbolic counterfactual that cannot be proven, making it subjective.

Michigan is already the favorite to win the National Championship again next season.

Michigan I think is right now the favorites to win next season. Tough to win back to back, but he has to hit the portal. He has to be active... which he already is.

This is a prediction for the next college basketball season.

College basketball is now 'pay to win' and that's unsustainable

It's a pay to win tournament. Like basketball is ruined. Unsustainable. Yeah, that's the new word that I keep hearing.

Subjective opinion about the direction of college sports governance.
