-Bob Karvitz and one of the reasons that you know Pacer basketball is on its way back:
-Notre Dame women rout Longwood, 92-26, yesterday afternoon up in South Bend. The men beat #22 Pitt the night before in a game that saw them losing at halftime by a point. Final score, 72-59, making it 28 in a row for the Irish on their home floor.
-The Irish football team makes it two bowl games in a row against a Florida team. Last year they had no trouble at all against Miami. Later today they go up against the Florida State Seminoles. Prediction: The Irish make it two wins in a row in December bowls, again in a surprisingly easy fashion.
-So, do the Colts bench their starters against Jacksonville and go for the loss to ensure the #1 pick? The admin folk have a precedent - they sat them two years ago, going for a super healthy team for the run to the super bowl rather than continuing the possibility of a perfect season. It didn't work out then and I don't expect their decision this time will work out any better. Btw, what do you think their decision will be: go for the loss? or go for the win? Will we know one way or the other? Btw 2: Jacksonville has good reasons to let the Colts win so they don't get that #1 pick. What do they do? Could end up in a tie with neither team wanting the W.
-IU men's basketball gets a dose of reality in Big Ten opener against MSU, lose 80-65. The Spartans countered a 25-2 run by the Hoosiers with a 20-0 run of their own. Wowzer on the runs! This ain't 3rd grade basketball, is it?
-Barr-Reeve and North Daviess both won in the Graber Post Holiday Tournament. BR beat Clay City, 58-47, while ND beat North Posey, 59-46. They play each other today, don't know which game.
-Anybody watching the weather? Looks awfully good for some golf at Lakeview. Should see some golfers today, tomorrow and Saturday. Hurray! Watch for the Saturday scramble time. Love this mild winter we're having.

The Good Looking Females Quotient. There is a direct correlation between the quality of Pacers basketball and the number of good-looking females in the joint.Really.
