Summary

Gary Parrish is joined by Matt Norlander and Sam Vecenie for this episode of the Eye on College Basketball podcast. They discuss which team should now be ranked No. 1 in the nation, and whether their opinions of Oklahoma and North Carolina changed after those weekend losses to unranked teams. Then they get into Louisville's self-imposed postseason ban, and they close by looking ahead to Monday night's game between Duke and Louisville, and Tuesday night's game between Kansas and West Virginia.
