The AFP on WREL: Hoops in full swing

Chris Graham

AFP editor Chris Graham talks sports with WREL’s “Online with Jim Bresnahan.”

The segment begins with a look back at Monday’s BCS championship game won by #1 Auburn. The game was a surprise at least in the sense that it was so low-scoring. Chris gives us his insight as to why that was the case.

The focus then shifts to ACC basketball. Can anybody beat Duke? Chris isn’t so sure. Can the ACC get more than two or three teams into this year’s March Madness? Chris is even less sure of that.

We wrap with a glimpse at the local high-school basketball scene.
