Exciting opening win for Iona over Vermont. Iona gets bucket w/ less than second left for win!
This is different Iona team from last year - more gritty, tough & better defensively!
2 stars for Iona: Kevon Vanderhorst with winning shot & 27 pts & Kosy Akametu w/ 18 pts! GO GAELS!

An elite offense meets an elite defense for a historic season opener ⚖️!
Purdue finished No. 2 nationally in offensive efficiency last season, while Gonzaga ranked No. 1 in defensive efficiency.
It’s the first time this century teams coming off top-two finishes in those respective categories meet to start the season.

FEATURE: Meet Quinn Ellis, the St John’s point guard Rick Pitino can’t stop raving about. He comes from British basketball royalty and was basically raised around the sport.
“He sees things that most players don't see.”

The 24 Hour Marathon is never going to be what it was back in the day where you have on campus games going on all day. That said, have to give credit to the teams and the Field of 68 for putting on this version with so many good Mid Major matchups throughout the day.

A new era of Bona hoops is here. Mike MacDonald makes his official debut as head coach Monday as the Bonnies host Youngstown State to open 2026-27.
SBU leads the series 7-1 and have won five straight, including an 84-80 win at the Reilly Center last season.

Kevin Willard must be really pissed - big game to open the season in Rome and his Wildcats turn the ball over 20 times and blow a game they led 83% of time. ND got 20 points off turnovers.
But give ND credit, they were scappy and toughed out a nice win.

The first win of the college basketball season belongs to Notre Dame!
@NDmbb takes down Villanova in Rome to open the season with a victory at the Eternal City Tip-Off!
College Hoops Chat retweeted
FINAL: Notre Dame 74, Villanova 72
What a start to the season for Micah Shrewsberry and the Fighting Irish. Didn't lead in second half until 68 seconds left, trailed by as many as 10. The much-anticipated breakout season from Brady Koehler coming to fruition: 16 PTS, 8 REBS.

FIRST GAME OF THE SEASON DELIVERS ‼️
Notre Dame fights back late to defeat Villanova in the Eternal City Tip-Off ☘️

IRISH IN ROME!!! ☘️
Last 5 minutes told whole story. Nova had ZERO killer instinct & juice down the stretch despite being better for 90% of the game.
Irish trio of Braeden Smith, Shrewsberry & Koehler was great - 47 combined pts
Nova 20 TOs🤮
Looked dead in the water for the entire last few minutes, just looked so out of it.
Bad loss for Nova but a great kick start for Notre Dame!!!
