Previewing the #UAAP79 Men’s Basketball Tournament

(Image is from ABSCBN Sports)

I’m super excited for the 79th season of the UAAP to finally unfurl tomorrow. Of course, the centerpiece event is men’s basketball, where FEU will try to defend its crown against all comers, especially the consensus favorite, DLSU. Most teams will be in a state of change this season, with the Archers, Falcons, Eagles, Maroons, and Tigers all having new coaches. A good number of the teams have also lost significantly talented players, and a curious crop of rookies has lit up the fire in couch potato pundits everywhere. In short, it’s shaping up to be a pretty fun season for men’s hoops. Let’s hope it stays that way!


Here are a couple of #UAAP79 preview clips from The Score on ABSCBN Sports + Action (now known as S + A!). 

In the first one, former UST Growling Tiger and fellow S + A UAAP Analyst Christian Luanzon talks about some interesting match ups for S79, and in the second one, I join fellow basketball writer/blogger Adrian Dy in dissecting each team’s outlook for the coming basketball wars.







Now, for more in-depth previews for each #UAAP79 men’s basketball team, you can go to FOX Sports Asia!
