**NOTE**: This episode was recorded prior to Arizona's loss at Oregon State late Thursday night.

If teams want to win a national championship, history suggests that they need to finish the season top 10 in KenPom offensive efficiency and top 22 in KenPom defensive efficiency. Only three teams fit that bill right now – Arizona, Auburn, and Purdue. Several teams are within outlier status offensively and right there defensively – UNC, Houston, Tennessee, and BYU. Curiously, Kansas right now falls outside of the parameters in both offense and defense. The Pac12 (Arizona at Oregon), MWC (Utah St at Boise St), and A10 (Dayton at Richmond) all have games for first place this weekend. Who can get a leg up? Finally, Isaac Schade and Andy Patton get you ready for a weekend of great basketball! The Big 12 is as wild as ever. Duke and UNC have interesting tests a week before their first meeting.
