College basketball

The college basketball season started with some great games, in places as far away as Maui, Hi and before that on the deck of the U.S.S Carl Vision.  The ACC (North Carolina, Duke) and the Big East (Syracuse, Connecticut) are in my opinion the two best conferences in college basketball.  These teams just reload year after year.  In the ACC, North Carolina is always good under coach Roy Williams, Duke has Mike Krzyewski (winiest coach in  division 1, college basketball) and an athletic team who will give you their best effort night after night.  Their are a lot of good teams in the big East (5 ranked teams).  Uconn has some gelling to do as a team, but they can be a dangerous as we saw them (as a bunch of freshman) grow up before our eyes in winning the NCAA tournament last year.  I like what I have seen out of Syracuse so far with Fab Melo and the athleticism on that team, they can shut opponents down with their zone.  I am a Big East person and, I do like syracuse to make a run in the tournament.  Syracuse's tournament run is contingent upon coach Jim Boeheim and the team not getting wrapped up in the child sex abuse case against former assistant Bernie Fine.  Conference play doesn't start for another month or so and that is when things get sorted out, as far as every team playing equal competition, night in and night out.
