College basketball is officially under way ladies and gentleman! What a way to get it started. We have #1 vs #2 and #4 vs #5. In the 1st game Michigan state was taking on an inexperienced Kentucky team. Jon calipari Kentucky coach said before the game that it was unfair to play Michigan state and that they couldn't win. If I was a player and my coach said this I wouldn't want to play for him. He says we can't win so let's not play. You cannot make excuses when playing a good team. Young or whatever it is you have to show up and play doesn't matter how good you are. Michigan state jumped out to a 10-0 lead and the lead was there for the whole 1st half, but in the 2nd half Julius Randle put Kentucky on his back. He scored 23 in the 2nd half and Kentucky tied it at 64. Keith applying bit a 3 and Gary Harris got a steal and a layup and Michigan state was up 5. With 10 seconds left Kentucky was down 2 and needed a stop. They got a miss but branden Dawson tipped it in and Michigan state won 78-74.
The 2nd game featured 2 blue bloods in Kansas vs duke. But kansas' blood was bluer. Jabari Parker went off for 19 in the 1st half as andrew wiggins was sitting with foul trouble. Perry Ellis took over for the jayhawks as he was unstoppable. He had 23 and 9 rebounds. Duke lead 42-40 at half. In the 2nd half andrew wiggins took over as he scored 16 in the 2nd half including an and 1 that also fouled Jabari Parker out of the game as Kansas won 94-83. The 3 freshman both played great. And it should be a great season of basketball
