Hold Your Horses, There Isn't Exactly a Stampede of Norse Coming to Houston (Unless You Count Your Local IKEA)
Did you just ransack the internet trying to find out when the Northern Kentucky Norse are facing off against the Houston Cougars? Did you stumble into a time warp and miss the memo that it's actually May 2024, not March 2023? Fear not, fellow basketball enthusiast, for we've all been there (well, maybe not the time warp part... unless?).
Let's Get You Back on the Court
The NKU vs. Houston game you're likely thinking of was a glorious NCAA Tournament first-round matchup that happened on Thursday, March 16th, 2023. Yes, a whole year ago! Those Norse must have gotten lost on their way to Texas, because it was a nail-biter that ended with the Houston Cougars taking the win (sorry Norse fans, better luck next time!).
Looking for your Next Basketball Fix?
The good news is that college basketball season isn't that far away! It usually tips off around November, so mark your calendars and get those brackets ready. In the meantime, here are a few options to keep your buzzer-beater dreams alive:
- Rewatch the classics: Dust off your highlights of that epic NKU vs. Houston game (or any other classic that gets your adrenaline pumping).
- March Madness reruns: Who says you can't relive the madness of March in May?
- Support your local teams: Find out if there are any summer leagues or tournaments happening around you. You might just discover the next big star!
And Finally, a Word to the Wise
The internet can be a tricky place, especially when it comes to time travel (which, spoiler alert, still isn't a thing). So next time you have a hankering for a dose of NKU vs. Houston action, double-check the date before you go diving down a year-old rabbit hole.
In the meantime, stay frosty and happy hoops hunting!
