The Big Ten appeared a lot easier to pick three months ago. Wisconsin, Indiana and, of course, Michigan State. It's time to look again. (Hi, Purdue). How have other races changed since November?
Just how good is Kentucky freshman Malik Monk? Maybe we should just ask North Carolina. Monk torched the Tar Heels, and that earned him Dickie V's player of the week (and Diaper Dandy) honors.
Two weeks after his twin brother Bryson led Fort Wayne to an upset of then-No. 3 Indiana, Brenton Scott did the same for Indiana State against No. 16 Butler, hitting the game-winning free throw.
Another upset in Indiana as Indiana State KO's No. 16 Butler. Brenton Scott finished with 24 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals, and he also made the late, game-winning free throw that sealed the 72-71 win. In late November, his twin brother, Bryson Scott, led Fort Wayne with 18 points, 12 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 steals in his team's upset of Indiana. Not a bad stretch for the Scott family.
