BUTLER AT EVANSVILLE (3:05 p.m. Saturday at Ford Center in Evansville, Indiana)
Separated by over two hours of driving time but not far away in terms of basketball and spirit, Butler and Evansville square off in what should be a good contest between members of the Horizon League and Missouri Valley Conference. It is a good high-major crossover game and a nice rivalry game between two Indiana universities. The two-time consecutive NCAA runners-up have title-game losses to Duke and Connecticut under their belts and won’t fly under the radar much longer. This is the first game at the new Ford facility, which replaces venerable Roberts Stadium as Evansville’s new home. Butler went 28-10 last year but lost most of its experience; only two seniors, Ronald Nored and Garrett Butcher, are on the roster. Butler has picked up victories in its last three trips to Evansville, which comes off a 16-16 season and should improve from there.

Behind the Numbers: Considering Point Guard “Purity--Rush The Court
With the exception of C. J. Reed of Bethune-Cookman, this is a list of some of the biggest talents in college basketball last season. It’s no surprise that Walker, a veritable scoring machine, shot more than he passed. What is exceptional, however, is how thoroughly this group out-classes the first group. While none of these players quite match the raw assists per game of Marshall, as a whole, the number of assists per game is very similar on both lists. The shoot-first point guards are doing just as much assisting per game, they just happen to be scoring a lot as well. Not to compare crocodiles to tigers here, but wouldn’t you prefer a randomly selected player from the shoot-first list on your team than a randomly selected player from the pass-first team?

MAC Basketball Review: Go Stroh Go--Hustle Belt
EMU 68, Illinois-Chicago 57 — I wondered how long it'd have taken Rob Murphy to notch his first career win with the Eagles. No need to wonder, they got it out of the way rather soon. Based on what I read, they played a sound fundamental game. The box backs that up; very few threes taken, they went to the line a ton (19-of-28) and UIC was throwing up all sorts of trash from the 3-point line. Derek Thompson led the way with 17 points. And center Matt Balkema fouled out in just 12 minutes of play. Efficient!

Preview: Spartan surprise?--College Hoops Journal
That’s just the young talent. The Michigan State frontcourt will still have a senior anchor in Green, who played a key role in the Spartans’ 2009 and 2010 Final Four runs. Junior forward Derrick Nix could help the Spartans match up with Big Ten favorite Ohio State and the Buckeyes’ wide-bodied star center, Jared Sullinger. And Michigan State will mitigate the relative inexperience of its backcourt with the addition of Brandon Wood, a senior transfer from Valparaiso who was a first-team All-Horizon League selection last season. Wood completed his degree at Valparaiso last season and is enrolled in graduate-level classes at MSU, which enables him to compete for the Spartans right away instead of sitting out a year under NCAA transfer rules. Wood should be fired up for the Carrier Classic: While playing for Valparaiso, he once scored 24 points in a game against the Spartans, and 30 points in a game against North Carolina.

Michigan State's rebounding kept them in Carrier Classic--The Detroit Free Press
North Carolina opened with six straight points. Branden Dawson then snatched an offensive rebound and scored on the put-back. Derrick Nix followed with another rebound lay-up the next time down the court. Brandon Wood hit a three. Nix scored again on a rebound. Then Draymond Green scored on a rebound to give the Spartans an 11-8 lead.
...
MSU has work to do on the perimeter. Its guards -- Keith Appling, Wood, Travis Trice and Russell Byrd -- will have to make shots. (Byrd played 2 minutes against the Tar Heels. Izzo remains cautious with his sharpshooter because Byrd is still not far removed from two foot surgeries. His plan is eventually to play Byrd about 10 minutes a game to try to get him ready for the Big Ten season.)
