ESPN, you continue to be awesome.
From Awful Announcing comes the upcoming schedule for College Gameday: Hoops Edition for this coming winter. How do they have them decided already? I don't know. I guess because how the season goes is sort of irrelevant to ESPN, at least from the college basketball perspective.
For those too lazy to link over, here's the schedule:
January 16th: Storrs, Conn. - Notre Dame at Connecticut (Women’s)
A women's game. Awesome. Yes, we get it -- women's basketball is just as deserving of our attention. I'll be sure to care...soon.
January 23rd: Clemson, S.C. - Duke at Clemson
Clemson, noted basketball powerhouse from a basketball-hungry part of the country. Also, note to Clemson -- you can't pretend you're nutty fans about both football and basketball and not really be good at either of them.
January 30th: Manhattan, Kan. - Kansas at Kansas State (6 p.m. show and game at 7 p.m.)
Fine. Kansas is good and a great state for hoops.
February 6th: Champaign, Ill. - Michigan State at Illinois
This is your Big Ten choice? No Boilermakers? Okay. Whatever.
February 13th: Lexington, Ky. - Tennessee at Kentucky
Okay, Calipari. I get it.
February 20th: Seattle, Wash. - UCLA at Washington
Seriously? Seriously?
February 27th: Syracuse, N.Y. - Villanova at Syracuse
I guess I should be happy they're not featuring a powerful Big East matchup every week. Because the Big East is awesomeness.
March 6th: Durham, N.C. - North Carolina at Duke
But of course.

Does anyone even watch College Gameday: Hoops Edition?
The instant I see resident charlatan Digger Phelps on the idiot box, I grab the remote and let my fingers do the stampedin'!
Exactly...it's Gameday in name only- Just like Phelps, the show is a travishamockery.
It's probably written in Phelps contract that Gameday can't go anywhere near West Lafayette... because you know... "there are no roads between notre dame and Purdue". Seriously he's probably afraid of getting crap from the paint crew (deservedly so) and chants such as "F the Irish", "Come and Play us" and "F Scott Martin"... which is probably a win-win situation for both parties... I would've like to seen that though...
