The UCLA Bruins have won 12 games in a row and feel like the favorites to win the Pac-12, so why is no one really talking about them? Gary Parrish and Matt Norlander dive into that, then touch on non-Kentucky SEC discussion and evaluate whether or not Alabama is deserving of a 1-seed, and if they still feel good about Arkansas still making the NCAA Tournament. PLUS, with only one game separating them, the guys get into their weekend Final Four And 1 picks.

(00:23) - UCLA deserves more love

(12:25) - Bama is a one-seed right now

(18:30) - Are we sure Arkansas will make the NCAA Tournament?

(28:35) - Final Four and One Picks

South Carolina strolled into Rupp Arena and snapped Kentucky's 28-game home winning streak. Is this the sign that things have hit rock bottom in Lexington for John Calipari? YEP. Elsewhere, Michigan State has quietly rolled seven straight wins together, should Sparty get some more ink? All those questions answered, plus UNC-UVA, Oklahoma-Kansas, more K-State chatter and a HUGE preview for Wednesday and Thursday.

Where to start after the past 48 hours? Let's go with the Big 12, which is very chaotic at the top. Kansas State is getting some more love after toppling Baylor over the weekend. Is this a top-10 team? Iowa State, we see you, too. Elsewhere, Kentucky took another bad loss. Arizona took an even worse one, somehow. Weird, really. We recap what has been a crazy (so: typical?) weekend.

Biggest result of the weekend? Probably Sean Miller and Xavier ending UConn's undefeated streak. But first: someone went 6-0-1 in the Final 4 And 1, and for once, it wasn't Norlander. We get into the weekend's events, including some side commentary on the CFP semifinals, plus highlight a bunch of the big winners from Saturday and Sunday. Is Penn State legit? Should Charleston be ranked? Is Baylor not all that good?

Kentucky loses AGAIN, this time to Missouri. Kentucky fans are justifiably angry and Mizzou is building itself an NCAA Tournament case. The guys open on that, touch on the SEC overall, then get to previewing a pretty good NYE Saturday with their Final 4 And 1 picks. They also provide their dart throws at Saturday's CFP semifinals. A big episode to end 2022!

But we think this is one of our most rewarding eps of the year. Thank you to all of our listeners and subscribers, and we can't wait to get to 2023!

Happy Holidays to all of you, dear listeners. As promised, Norlander and GP have come with goodies galore. It's a Mega Mailbag Special. And that takes up almost all of this Santa-sized episode. But first, we have to deal with the train that GP wrecked, the Illinois steam engine that has gone flying off the tracks. What to make of their season now? That's the open, and then it's a sleigh-full of your questions. Merry Christmas to all!

Norlander: Frank Martin has UMass off to a great start, but it initially came at a cost of high stress and family turmoil

It's was a more eventful Tuesday than expected. FOUR higher ranked teams lost, so Gary Parrish and Matt Norlander survey the damage. Does Miami have a claim to be the best team in the ACC? The guys break down what happened in Coral Gables on Tuesday. UConn got pushed, Providence beat Marquette, Duke lost at Wake. Plus: Matt wrote a great piece on the struggles of Frank Martin and his adjustments to coaching in Amherst.
