Fantasy College Hoops: Tuesday - Week 14

Georgia vs. Xavier was certainly an unconventional game for ESPN's Rivalry Week. Nevertheless, a pair of Bulldogs hit the hardwood for Crimson & Bluebloods and WGP in a late non-conference matchup. Trey Thompkins (14pts, 9reb, 3ast, 4blk) dominated the first half with 12 points and 5 boards. But he picked up four personal fouls after halftime, and was DQ'ed before recording a double-double. Travis Leslie (10pts, 7reb, 5ast, 1blk) showed flashes of brilliance, but couldn't help overcome Georgia's 2-for-13 night from behind the arc.

Currently riding a three-game win streak, Nosotros Creemos was hoping for a big night from Terrence Jones (10pts, 11reb, 2ast, 4blk) in Kentucky's matchup against Tennessee. The Wildcats spoiled Bruce Pearl's return to the sideline with a 73-61 win. The freshman phenom double-doubled, but could only manage a 2-for-9 shooting night, while committing eight turnovers against the Volunteers' pressure defense.

The only other two players from Super Tuesday's slate of games were a pair of Boilermakers in Purdue's 67-53 win over the Indiana Hoosiers. Gordon Bombay's JaJuan Johnson (15pts, 8reb, 1ast, 4blk, 1stl) was held to15 points on his 21st birthday, breaking a string of seven straight games with 20+. But Tuesday's top scorer was Boilers' E'Twaun Moore (25pts, 8reb, 1ast, 2blk), who buried three 3-pointers and broke 30+ fantasy points for the third time this season.

Here's a look at the current scoreboard.

Strong start to the week! My favorite player on my favorite team came up big. If he breaks out his slump then watch out, I could have the best starting guard rotation in the league just before the playoffs start!
