Biggest day so far with 6 games and 5 on national television including 4 on the ESPN family. UMass opens it up at 10 am on ESPN playing Harvard as 9.5 point favorites. Temple opens their season as 3.5 point favorites on the road taking on the Golden Flashes of Kent St. on ESPN at 12. Xavier is a 4 point underdog at home facing Butler in a non-conference game, interestingly Xavier opened as a 1 point favorite and even a 2.5 point favorite at BetUS before being bet down to a 4 point dog. VCU is a 7 point favorite at home as they face a tough Wichita St team at 7 pm on ESPNU. Richmond is a comfortable 15 point favorite taking on NC-Wilmington at 7 pm. Charlotte is an 11 point favorite at home taking on Georgia Southern at 9 pm on NBC Sports Network.

Umass looks pretty good. DK has the atheletes he needs to run this fast paced style. Cady lalanne looks good so far. A few missed opportunities by a few guys off nice feeds by Chad. Gotta work on those hands.

Umass will struggle against a well disciplined team that will take care of the ball if they play like the first half all season

This is not the way you play college bball. Looks like an early morning CYO Christmas tournament game. Freak shows with these early am games. But everybody loves the money. No wonder you get this push to pay the kids. Get rid of those carrier games - not meant to be concerned about the wind velocity / sun field / playing surface. It was a novelty go back to playing games on college campuses and get the ncaa to get some scheduling creditabilty while we're at it.

It's becoming an environment of can you top this.
