Week 1 Reactions and Overreactions – Episode 124

The opening weekend of the Division III basketball season is in the books! Not every team made their debut during the first weekend of play but there were a lot of great games as we start learning just what each team is, or could be, for this season. Join us this week as we discuss what took place in this week’s “four-point play” and talk about how these first games may, or may not, alter the view of teams in or around the Top 25.

We also give a review of the wide range of information we have available at D3Datacast.com to serve as resources as you follow the basketball season, helping give context to teams as they relate to each other and their outlook for postseason play. We also check in on how we did in our week one picks and have five more games to pick against the computer line for week 2 before wrapping up with one question in the mailbag.
