What an amazing game in the Champions Classic.  It's rare enough to see a
20/20 performance.  It's rare enough to see a triple double.  It's rare
enough to see someone who prefers to dish assists score a career high.
WE SAW ALL THREE IN THE SAME GAME!

Chaminade is not a Division I school, so most of the usual prognosticators
aren't doing predictions for this game.  On paper, it should be a rout.
Then again, could Hunter Dickinson be our Ralph Sampson?  As most of you
know, Chaminade did beat Ralph Sampson when he was the top dog for #1 Virginia
back in 1982.  In subsequent years, they managed to take down the likes of
Oklahoma (2010), Texas (2012), and California (2017), and this time they should
have plenty of fans in the stands, with the game being played roughly a mile
from their campus.  Definitely not a game to be taken for granted.  Hopefully
our starters will be able to get some rest, because Rounds 2 and 3 could be
against opponents even stronger than Kentucky.

Kudos to Massey for doing rankings beyond Division I, so we have a
legitimate prediction from him.  ESPN's BPI has a predicted margin,
as does Greenfield, but without the usual game preview.  The DPPI
score is more of a gut feeling from Don Davis than an actual computer
computation, given that his DPPI only includes Division I teams, but
given the dearth of predictions, I left it in the list.

Part of me wants to predict a score of 99 for Kansas (it's left as an
exercise for the student to figure out why), but if Self does rest his
starters, that could bring down the number of points the Jayhawks
score.  Also, I understand that KJ won't play today in the aftermath of
a death in the family (shades of Thomas Robinson).

Chaminade lost to Anchorage up in Fairbanks (which I'm calling an away
game rather than neutral court), then beat Fairbanks before returning to
Honolulu, where they lost to Hilo in overtime, so the Silverswords are
1-2 on the season.

Rock Chalk!

Here is Kansas' season, with predicted margins based on last season's final
Sagarin ratings.  Normally you could just add those probabilities of victory to
compute the expected number of wins, but last season's ratings aren't all that
useful, and I also have all possible opponents listed for the Maui Invitational,
which would skew the result upward by about 2 wins.  What a loaded field this year.
