News On The Horizon 12/13/2010

ATB--Rush The Court

Enjoy It, Cleveland State. The first team in the nation to get to 12-0 after this weekend’s win over Sam Houston State should enjoy it for what it’s worth. They’ll now take a week off for exams before traveling to Morgantown to take on West Virginia for their next game. As much as we’d love to see the feel-good story continue, we don’t think it will last beyond that one.
...
Gonzaga & Butler. The two mid-major/not-mid-major stalwarts are currently 9-9 after the weekend where GU lost at Notre Dame and Butler defeated Mississippi Valley State two days after losing to those Musketeers. Chances are quickly dwindling for these two teams to put together a solid non-conference resume that will impress the NCAA Selection Committee should either one drop several in their respective conferences. It’s unusual to be talking about this, but we wouldn’t bet against Mark Few and Brad Stevens to turn things around soon.
