The 2018 season is underway tonight for the NCAA Men's Basketball teams. I have used the preseason poll for the top 25 teams. I have listed them in no particular order. I have had some fun (for me) putting them in a rhyming pattern, which I call rhyming with timing.
Let's line them up and let them shoot
And watch them pound the rock
They are the top teams for this year
Let's play! and stop the talk
There's some wildcats this is true
I think they have just three
Kentucky, 'Nova, Kansas State
All are good you'll see
There's some Tigers, same amount
I'll list the names for you
Auburn, Clemson and LSU
These cats can scratch you too!
Kansas, 'Zaga and Dukies play
Is supposed to be the best
We shall see how they compete
When playing all the rest
The rest of these teams all can play
Just showing off their skills
So if you get a chance just watch
And what you'll see is thrills
Virginia, Ducks and Tar Heels
Don't forget those Volunteers
Spartans, OrangeMen, Virginia Tech
I'll take those Mountaineers
Seminoles, Purdue, Wolverines
And give me some Horned Frogs
Washington, Bruins, almost done
Mississippi State Bulldogs
I look forward to an exciting year of NCAA College Basketball for 2018 - 2019. I am a fan of the SEC in basketball as well as football. The SEC is getting better in basketball as a league. We shall see if they can continue to improve the overall talent of the league besides Kentucky. It ought to be exciting basketball. Also, let me know if you have any surprise teams that we should know about that could make people sit up and take notice.
@thesportsguru had his podcast today. He mentioned a couple of teams that he liked that I had not thought about much. Wofford and Nevada. Wofford played a tough North Carolina Tar Heel team and came up little short and Nevada and BYU slugged it out for a little while until Nevada pulled away in the second half.
I know it is early, but Duke absolutely humiliated Kentucky by over 30 points tonight. Those boys at Duke are seriously talented this year. Kentucky probably needed that ass kicking to get their attention. We will see how much they improve as the season goes on. Calipari can coach those prima donnas pretty well. Go Razorbacks!
