Barstool Breakdown

Another March Madness has arrived, and our Gonzaga Bulldogs have a 3‑seed, tipping off tonight at 7 p.m. local time (West Coast) against the Conference USA champs, the 14‑seeded Kennesaw State Owls (21–13). Here’s what to expect and how we can move on to the Round of 32. Kennesaw State Preview The Owls are a tough‑minded team that loves to hit the boards, though they aren’t super big, with only two rotation players reaching 6’9”. What this means is: be prepared for a physical

It's good to be writing to you folks again. For a second there, I thought my article that I published here on Feb. 28 was going to end up being a jinx on the Missouri Tigers. All that worry for not, as the Tigers found out they were the No. 10 seed in the West Region and would face-off against the No. 7 seed Miami Hurricanes from the ACC. The game tips off at 9:10 p.m. on Friday, March 20th at the Enterprise Center in St. Louis. Yes, you read that correctly, the Missouri Tig

March Madness is here! As we scramble to fill out our brackets, sometimes the best week of the year can become a little overwhelming. No worries, though, as I am here to save the day yet again with a Round of 64 preview, giving you best bets, players to watch, what to expect, and finally, a prediction. Now, will it be perfect? NO WAY! It’s March, but the research has been done! EAST REGION Thursday Games Tip Off Times 12:15 pm Overview:  This game is the true definition of a

What a week it is. We started with our brackets, got a little pros vs. joes action, and now, amongst it all, let’s not forget TRIVIA! We have a little madness heading our way from The Dozen, as all three matches could go either way. Before we get into the preview, let’s give a self‑shoutout here, as I am 9–0 in predictions over the last three weeks. Yep, it’s a pretty big deal. If only I could get this hot in betting for March Madness!!! Tuesday Night #8 Po’Boys (1–2) vs. #6

What a stream it was the perfect setup for March Madness this week. The Pros flexed their muscles time and time again, leaving the Joes feeling nothing but rushed and powerless. Whether it was missed layups, turnovers, or defensive miscommunication, the Joes had it all. So, who takes the awards home from a stream that held the eyes of over 35k! MVP: Tom Welch (Loyola Chicago) & Tyler Hansbrough (North Carolina) Time and time again, when the Joes had a slight advantage or felt

We have our bracket… oh, how perfect it looks and feels this early Monday morning as we stare intently, not getting a lick of work done. Soon, though, reality sets in that we now have to fill this dang thing out! And there’s no way we are finishing last in the office pool again… we can’t sit back again as Cheryl from HR wins the pot by picking her favorite states! This is the year we do the research and by research I mean check out the teams Coach Day has as the Cinderellas,

As the brackets begin to fill up, bets are being placed, and Cinderellas dominate lunch break banter at Barstool Chicago, we get a matchup for the ages in Pros vs. Joes: Basketball . Ohio's Tate & Lucas have assembled an all-star cast of March legends to form a matchup made for Barstool After Dark . Though the Joes haven't fared well against the Pros in the past, March is the month of magical moments. If you are a fan of March Madness, the Pros' lineup is pure nostalgia overl

Tomorrow is a chance for Ludvig Åberg to take the next step in his young career as he heads into a pressure‑packed Sunday with a slim 3‑shot lead and a total of eight golfers within five shots. Åberg will look to avoid disaster on a course that has it lurking around every corner. For Ludvig, he’s had his close chances on the big stage, including multiple top‑5 major finishes. While he does hold a signature event win and two Ryder Cup victories, including being the only playe

As the MAC tournament tips off with no longer undefeated 31‑1 Miami (Ohio) losing today, I’m at a loss over all the comments still somehow against this squad. For anyone in that crowd, you’ve lost touch with what sports…and specifically March Madness, are supposed to be about. Unless you root for another MAC team, all of America needs to be watching RedHawk basketball. The thing with this team isn’t just the insane feat of going 31‑1 It’s the pure watchability. Their games ar

The madness of March has reached The Dozen Trivia League as we start to see teams separating themselves from the pack and into the title conversation. This week presents opportunity, as a few teams look to show their new staying power in Season 6. Tuesday Night 12 Hoagies (0-1) vs 11 Grinders (0-1) I know it’s early, but already this feels like a must‑win for both teams, as they can’t take on any more fringe‑type losses. The Grinders had a hard‑fought loss to start off their

Who are the best players in The Dozen? Is it all based on PPM? I based it purely on my opinion, and this list will be updated throughout the season. Let me know what you think, and follow Dozen Trivia Network on X for more content!

Though we are in an off week for Barstool After Dark , worry not, as 2026 has already given us plenty of straight heat to hold us over until its return. Ohio’s Tate  doesn’t know what a sophomore slump is, now in his second season at the host position, he continues to find ways to give the Stoolies what we want. As we’ve already hit March, if you have found yourself somehow too  busy on a Tuesday night to check in with After Dark, here are the three must-watches  (or even re-

Over a month ago Gonzaga lost what I see as a top 5–7 big in the nation in Braden Huff , given a funky timeline of 4–8 weeks. Then recently, still seeing him on crutches, my postseason expectations as a fan started to shift from Final Four contenders to let's win this last WCC campaign before we ride off into the new Pac-12 in 2026–27. But yet again my Bulldogs, with the leadership of Mark Few, are stringing something together once more. Before the past decade or so, really

Mid-major conference tournaments are under way, so now power conference bubble teams officially are in scoreboard-watching mode. Now the mid-major scene doesn't have as many "bid stealers" as in the past, but there are some definite root-for squads if your team has been hovering over the bubble scene the past month. Though I am firmly in the camp of rather seeing, say, a 29–5 Belmont as an at-large over an Auburn at 19–15 who couldn't even go above .500 in their conference.

For those who thought he was a one hit wonder, or the man who got to the top & changed… well it's time to eat some damn crow. The lore of Chef continues to peel back like the world's most perfect onion. And thanks to his in-office rival, who many now consider the devil himself, Mark Titus , we continue to get deeper & deeper into the world of Chef Donny . Today the Yak legend pulled double duty as he spilled over into the Mostly Sports world on Jerzday as Titus rolled out wh

Dozen Trivia Network There are 16 teams in the Dozen, but how many of them can actually win the championship? Can any of the new teams win it? Are we most likely headed for a repeat champion? I break it all down and more! Let's start with the first group: In the Middle of the Bubble Experts Ziti Booze Ponies Minihane Uptown Balls I believe most of these are self-explanatory, but I also understand the questions some fans may have about some. Experts and Ziti have won the last

After a week of statements being made in the Dozen Trivia league, Week 4 now feels like the week of opportunity. The Experts, coming off their Big Game Classic loss, made sure to announce to the league they are still the team to beat, but wait, could it now be Ziti's turn to put the pedal down on the rest of the league? Ziti, Booze Ponies, & Chicago will all be in spots to take control early in the season of their destiny. Let's take an inside look. Tuesday #14 Chicago (0-1)

We now have the revenge attempt of the Doug Doug challenge. After last year's close call & heartbreaking end for Ohio's Tate & the crew, they are turning to strength in numbers. This year as the boys go for the world record, they will do so with a bigger crew & double the stakes. In a can't-miss show Tuesday night, history will yet again be at the fingertips of Barstool After Dark . For those who missed last year's attempt or maybe have forgotten the rules to the Doug Doug c

And breathe, Mizzou Nation... A dominating performance for Dennis Gates and Co. in Starkville on Saturday might not be the biggest win on the Tigers' résumé, but it does however likely solidify that this team will be dancing in March as they improve to 20-9 overall, 10-6 in the SEC. First and foremost, FIRE ME UP, GREEN GREG!!!!!!! (Family always, BFW) After a disastrous December that saw losses at Notre Dame (76-71) and two neutral site losses to kansas (80-60) and Illinois

The farewell tour to the WCC continues with another bittersweet final moment this Saturday night. As the Gonzaga Bulldogs travel to their rivals, Saint Mary’s, as WCC foes one last time in Moraga, California. A true end-of-an-era game, as the two have given us countless epic battles over the past couple decades atop the conference. Though there’s excitement in Spokane for the future with the Pac-12, still a piece of history is being left behind. Who would have thought a ti
