Tie game with 9 minutes left.

Mixed day so far, with Ohio St, SMU, NKU and George Mason winning. Ole Miss, Xavier and UNLV lost.

SMU looks bad without Foster. I got a feeling they may end up being a double Q3 for us.

I think I'm pulling for Memphis from here on out. It seems they may have an outside shot of making the tourney.

They need a lot of help but the bubble appears to be especially weak this season. Memphis could potentially sneak in.

Also helps when the conference tourney is at your home court

Florida makes a late 3-pointer in regulation to force OT against Ole Miss and goes on to win by 4. Ole Miss should still stay Q1 for us barring a big losing streak.

Memphis loses big @Tulsa but no major quartile shifts should occur as a result.

SMU/Wichita was neck and neck for nearly the entire second half and ended on a fitting note with Wichita making a lay-up with 1 second left to win. Both teams should stay Q2/Q3 for now but SMU is a bigger risk to drop to Q3/Q3 soon.

UCLA wins by 20 at Wash State. The slow climb back to Q2 is en route.

The announcers made a Mick Cronin reference in that game. They said his quote about how basketball is like boxing because you have to keep your hands up.

I caught that as well. It was pretty cool to get a little bit of free press even if it was on a game that only a few hard core fans were watching.

Temple (58) @ Houston (8)
7pm
I think it's time to root against Houston unless they're playing Tulane or ECU. They will very likely finish top 30 even with quite a few losses, and if they lose it will boost the NET of other conference teams and increase our chances for the league title.

Tulane @ East Carolina (255)
7pm

Xavier (86) @ Georgetown
8pm

UConn (76) @ UCF (42)
