Matt Meyers looks at the highly anticipated Duke-MSU game (once No. 1 vs. No. 2, now No. 1 vs. No. 6). He concedes Duke is a very legitimate favorite, but if MSU can limit its turnovers and Durrell Summers can step up on D against the Devils' shooters, we could have an upset at Cameron.

What are the keys to victory in the championship game? Knocking down some jump shots: The Tigers haven't had to do that through the entire tournament. They've been terrific on defense, which has allowed them to get out on the open court. That giv...

UCLA is going to its third straight Final Four after beating Xavier, 76-57, on Saturday. That is an unbelievable feat considering the two players they lost to the NBA (Jordan Farmar and Arron Afflalo). I think the Bruins have their best chance of ...

Every year Michigan State is a terrific defensive team for two reasons: The Spartans play good team defense, and they have good individual defenders that do an excellent job guarding the ball. In their first game of the NCAA tournament, they beat a...

The Memphis vs. Tennessee game lived up to the hype. Before the game, the whole city was on fire. Fans for both schools were everywhere during the day -- debating, cheering, arguing about who the No. 1 team in the country was and who was the best in ...

This was the first time ever, in any sport, that ESPN was at Indiana University for GameDay, and hopefully it won't be the last. I hope we make Bloomington an annual stop. I was worried at how the fans and the students would react to allegations of c...

Louisville was the best GameDay location for this year. The morning crowd was awesome. A lot of students and fans showed up and I think it made the show better because they were so excited. Louisville needs to be a regular stop every year, like Kentu...

This is the first time in GameDay history that we did the show from a Pac-10 school. This was a special treat to have them on primetime so people can see that the Pac-10 is the best conference in college basketball. The Pac-10 has one elite team: ...

We were in Carbondale, Ill., on the campus of Southern Illinois, for the second week of GameDay. Southern Illinois has been to the NCAA tournament for six straight years, but it has struggled this year at 10-10. The Salukis are a much better team tha...

Last year, everywhere we went for GameDay was a cold place. So one of the reasons I was excited to have GameDay in Gainesville, Fla., was because it was going to be warm. I was very surprised and disappointed that the highest the temperature got t...

Hey! It's Hubert Davis writing, and I'm excited and maybe a little nervous about my first blog. But I love college basketball and can't wait to talk about it. This was the second week in a row that we had College Basketball GameDay from ESPN in Br...
