No. 1 Gonzaga’s return and its game with No. 3 Iowa and Player of the Year candidate Luka Garza gets Hoops and Howie debating which is more important: individual star power or team chemistry, especially in this pandemic-challenged season. 

Don’t miss Hoops' conversation with Michigan State coach Tom Izzo, whose 6-2 Spartans are looking to navigate the toughest conference in the country.

Hoops and Howie start things off with a trip back to Dec. 23, 1982 to remember perhaps the greatest upset in college basketball history.
