Educated guess here is UCLA looking to pull the plug given the cross-country travel, and understandably so. Been banging the drum on how silly it is that UConn isn’t a part of this or the Champs Classic - would love to see the Huskies added here.

Not surprised by this with ACC, and would be a great move IMO. Extra non-con games allow teams to manage their schedules better. I’m a big believer that the P5 conferences would all benefit from being at 18/13 conf/non con, except for the Big East given the true round robin.

Some incredible mental gymnastics going on in this clip.

And there it is. UCLA officially out of the CBS Sports Classic. SJU v Kentucky is one hell of a replacement game.

Absolutely a travel-motivated decision for UCLA. Multiple trips 2-3 time zones Eastward during Big Ten play looming, Bruins are looking to stay out West as much as possible in the non-con. This will be the 12th CBS Sports Classic, w/ just three played West of the Mississippi.

This is a risk CBB faces in the era of unchecked roster turnover: alienating some diehard fans in favor of casual fans & gamblers. The numbers are up, as many media folks pontificate, but unless something changes the sport will suffer some apathy with its long-standing core.

Hard to overstate how much of an overhaul Iowa State's non-con schedule has undergone the past couple of years. Major credit to Otz and his staff for putting in the work on that. Below was the NC slate during the 2023/2024 campaign: x.com/JonRothstein/s…
