It's here. College basketball has finally officially begun across the country. Historic UCLA has already been upset. Now I am currently watching Siena's Edwin Ubiles make his case for a NBA draft pick next June. The highly anticipated games, Michigan State vs. Gonzaga and Kansas vs. Memphis, will take place tonight on ESPN. Don't miss out! Last time Michigan State and Gonzaga met each other was in the 2005 Maui Invitational. Some may remember this game, as it may have been the greatest in Maui's history. It was a game that had 18 ties and 24 lead changes and a triple overtime, with names like Adam Morrison, Maurice Ager, Shannon Brown, and J.P. Batista all being huge contributors. Morrison was the leading scoring in the game finishing with 43 points and Ager led the Spartans with 36 points. While Morrison led Gonzaga, Derek Raivio scored 26 points and J.P. Batista had 22 points and 13 rebounds, as the trio scored 91 of the Bulldogs' 109 points. State's Paul Davis finished with a double-double scoring 26 points and 13 rebounds, and the most successful out of all, Shannon Brown finished the game with 19 points. Gonzaga were the winners, 109-106, in triple overtime. Tune in tonight for the re-match.
