Taking a Look at Stanford

Fox Sports is counting down the top 25 teams in the nation- according to them- heading into the 2007-08 season. Every day they will review a team until they finally get down to their No. 1. Today’s focus is their No. 25 pick, Stanford. We all know about the Lopez twins, the Twin Towers, as they call them. Well, if you read this article you’ll see what problems the Cardinal have to get past to have a successful season in the tough Pac-10. If you are short on time, the article has a few short talking points at the bottom of the page that explain each side of the Stanford argument. Now you’ll have something to talk about this Thanksgiving with your brother-in-law who decided to wear his red Stanford sweater to the dinner table.

There are going to be a lot of team overviews out there in the next few weeks, so you will want to know which ones to bother with, and which ones to just skim over. If you only follow the school you graduated from, and maybe their conference, then getting your hoops news from a place like BasketballProspectus.com is a great idea, because you can get in-depth stats analysis and commentary as well. The articles are longer than you’ll find at Fox Sports, but if you would like to concentrate your studying on one team or one conference, then it’s a good bet.
