News On The Horizon 11/20/2017

My big weekend wrapup: UT Arlington and Northern Kentucky make early statements--Mid-Major Madness
These teams were good:
..
Northern Kentucky: Yeah, the weekend ended in a loss to Vermont, but look at what the Norse have done so far. They are 4-1 with wins over Iona and East Tennessee State. They’ve scored 80-or-more in each of their four victories and it took a late run from the Catamounts on Sunday to keep Northern Kentucky from a 5-0 start.

News, Notes, and Highlighted Games: Monday, Nov 20th--Hoops HD
-Vermont came from behind to beat Northern Kentucky and pick up a nice win away from home for their profile, while at the same time denying NKU what would have been a nice win on their profile. It was an exciting and well played game that almost no one saw. The arena was empty (to be fair, the game was in the Bahamas), and I don’t think too many people outside of myself purchased the stream.

HIGHLIGHTED GAMES
...
-OAKLAND AT SYRACUSE. Oakland is coming off a really surprising and potentially very damaging loss to Toledo. This is a road game that we’ve kind of had circled as a chance to impress the selection committee with a high quality road win. That’s still the case, but they’ll certainly have to do better than they did the other night.
