Day 1 of the 2022 season is in the books with some interesting games. A lot of D2, D3, and NAIA blowouts mixed in with some upsets.

D2 Notre Dame College upsets Deshon Parker and Cleveland St. 72-68.

Marshall loses to Queens University 83-82. Queens University began their transition to D1 this year.

Soft Houston defeats Oklahoma, Stetson is able to upset FSU, and #14 TCU narrowly escapes Arkansas-PB 73-72.

Sun Belt went 9-3 today. 1-3 against D1 opponents. 8-0 against D2 or lower.

Year 6 of college ball and still playing for a bottom feeder

Gates did not bring our old assistant coach (under Rowe) Rob Summers with him to Mizzou, as he's now at Miami Ohio.

Meanwhile Matt Brady didn't last long at Oklahoma, possibly longer than he did at Elon

Eastern Kentucky trailing Western Kentucky by 6 with three minutes to go. EKU getting the W would be nice for our SOS.

Louisville lost to Bellermine. A Dii in third year of di transition

I was watching the UNC-CoC game and heard an interesting tidbit. Apparently Pat Kelsey just signed the best Mid-Major recruiting class at CoC with two 4-stars and a 3-star center. Cougars are up 24-18 through the first 10 minutes against the #1 Tarheels.

50-43 Charleston at half. Wilmington didn't get blown out by UNC either, it was a 69-56 final.

Edit: Also Southern Miss leading Vanderbilt 34-28 early in the second half. ODU trails Drexel by 2 at half.

Hope Charleston beats UNC.

I was hoping UNC would get the W, I want them to still be #1 on 11/20. Just not on 11/21 UNC ended up with a 102-86 win.

Southern Miss finished the job at Vanderbilt, a nice 60-48 win there for the SBC. Louisiana beat Harvard 75-61 tonight, and unfortunately it looks like Drexel is gonna hold on to win over ODUh.

Troy takes down Florida State!

App State picks up a 61-60 win at Louisville! South Alabama hosts #18 Alabama tonight at 10.

Louisville is bad.

Colgate beating Syracuse 74-63 with 2 to go. Colgate lost to Buffalo, who we beat by 35. Looking for clues as to how good we are but that's a nice data point.

Edit: Colgate won 80-68

USA shooting a whopping 27% right now and trailing Alabama by 15. Alabama only shooting 31.7% though so if USA can heat up without Bama doing the same then they should really be able to close the gap in a hurry.

Seven footer Kevin Samuel for USA might be a problem for SBC teams.

#2 Gonzaga is losing by 20 to #11 Texas. Gonzaga looking mid-major at moment.

Arizona State went on a 20-7 run @ end of game to beat Feces U last night, sorry A10.

ASU should stop scheduling VCU. It brings down their NET rating.

Solid opening game going on in the Charleston Classic tourney.

Penn State up 6 on Furman late 2nd half.

Ol Dirty v. Vippy Sue game on deck ESPNU

I'm a little torn on this one. I wanna cheer for the mid-major, especially since they're purple, but I'd also love to see ODUh beat VT and Penn State back to back.
