Texas losing to Chaminade is flat out embarrassing. The B1G looks like it will be the top dog this year especially with the strong start. ACC has looked shaky at best with their preseason favorite getting absolutely blown out of the gym by Oklahoma State.

Let's just make it four straight ACC-B1G challenge wins and keep hitting that crumbling conference while its down.
