Fantasy College Hoops: Tuesday - Week 13

Last night was the perfect example of what fantasy college hoops is all about. The Game of the Week features two squads battling for their playoff lives. God's on my side has only had one 30+ scorers (Tristan Thompson) since Week 7... but he got two in last night's games. The first was North Carolina's Harrison Barnes (26pts, 6reb, 1ast), who buried four 3-pointers, posting a career-high 26 points in a lopsided 106-74 victory over Boston College. The second was Colorado's Alec Burks (19pts, 10reb, 5ast, 2blk, 1stl), with his second double-double this year, as Colorado stampeded Iowa State 95-69.

The Morris twins went head-to-head last night, and WGP's Markieff Morris (11pts, 12reb, 1blk) got the better of The Hammer's Marcus Morris (18pts, 4reb, 1ast, 1stl) in the Jayhawks' rout of Texas Tech. The 88-66 win was head coach Bill Self's first ever in Lubbock, after coming away empty-handed in his first three tries. Rarely guarded entry passes fueled the frontcourt dominance, as the Jayhawks made this one look easy.

Nosotros Creemos continues his steady push for a playoff spot, as he owned last night's top score. Kentucky's Terrence Jones (22pts, 12reb, 2ast, 4blk, 1stl) rebounded from back-to-back sluggish performances in Weeks 11 & 12. Despite Jones' big night, the game-winning shot belonged to a Nosotros Creemos teammate. Although he didn't get the start, Chris Warren sunk a game-winning 25-footer with 2.9 seconds left, giving the Rebels a 71-69 upset of 11th ranked Kentucky.

Here's a look at the current scoreboard.
