I want to start with this: I think it’s neat that CBS is broadcasting a tripleheader of games that starts with American Athletic Conference basketball and ends with Mountain West Conference basketball today.
Sure, it requires #12 Houston and #20 Colorado State to be involved, but CBS turning their powerful viewing audience over to what KenPom tabs as the #6 and #7 conferences in the country is pretty awesome. Again, yeah, it required nationally ranked teams to be involved, but said nationally ranked teams are most likely going to be relevant when March rolls around, too.
