While this week’s offerings are not as exciting as the past two weeks’ worth, there are nearly a dozen pretty good games out there.

Okay, maybe it's just me, but it certainly looks as if the female reporter, in this clip from Virginia Tech's post-game win over North Carolina Thursday night, win number 250 for Frank Beamer, gives the legendary head coach the brush-off.
