College Basketball is heating up. I have been playing NBA Jam lately because the Wii just added to it the downloadable games, and I am addicted. Best basketball video game of all time, no question. Wait a minute, I am getting carried away here…

Yesterday, a lot of big upsets occurred with in conference games well under way. Duke and Purdue fall out of the top 5 and we saw players I have been talking about for a little while now dropping big buckets and leading their respected teams to victory. I enjoy college basketball more and more as we gain closer to March Madness. Let’s get to the action…before I get carried away:
