Chris Beard Returns To Lubbock, Auburn Sweeps The Iron Bowl + College Refs Are Awful

On today's episode, Jake. Marty, and Reags start things with Chris Beard's return to Lubbock. The Beard's Longhorns lost to the Red Raiders in what was one of the craziest atmospheres in college basketball history (05:34). Will we ever see a situation like this again? Texas Tech dominated from start to finish. How dangerous is Mark Adams' squad?

Over to the SEC where basketball's Iron Bowl went #1 Auburn's way (17:49). The Tigers took down the Crimson Tide essentially locking up the regular season SEC title. Auburn looked the part of the top team in the country but are the Tigers a lock for the #1 overall seed? And for the Tide, which upcoming game looms larger, Ole Miss on the road or Kentucky at home?

We go back to the Big 12 where Kansas picked up a big road win in Ames over Iowa State (33:16). Does this say more about the Jayhawks or Cyclones? Reags thinks Iowa State is regressing after overachieving early on.

Before we get to our segments, we hit on the Emoni Bates/Memphis news (37:48) and some of the other early-week action (40:52). The guys also debate whether or not Duke is underrated.

Up next is Love/Hate (54:42) and Beating The Buzzer (01:05:02). Jake and Marty are then joined by Big Cat to hit on Wednesday's action including Wisconsin-Illinois and Villanova-Marquette (01:20:33). Plus Big Cat rants about Tuesday's Louisville/UNC referee fiasco.
