NIT:
Arizona 66, Drexel 62
Duke 74, Alabama 64
We get Duke/Arizona after Alabama and Drexel put up reasonable tests.
Cancun:
Wisconsin 70, West Virginia 63
St Louis 62, Old Dominion 52
Maui:
Syracuse 74, Baylor 67 - If the Dayton win doesn't hold up, Baylor actually winds up with not a lot of help from Maui. We'll see
Dayton 82, California 64 - Cal is the one that kinda leaves with an empty 1-2 as far as resume help goes. Dayton gets a solid two wins
Gonzaga beats Arkansas for a nominal win
Gulf Coast final:
Louisiana Tech 76, St Bonaventure 72 - mission accomplished for La Tech in a weaker field
Great Alaska:
Tulsa 63, Indiana St 62 - Awful result for ISU, even awfuler for Harvard. They needed ISU in the final to help build any kind of at-large hope
Thankgiving preview:
Prepare your bodies. Battle 4 Atlantis starts. Unlike other tourneys, being in the losers bracket isn't as big a problem because you can still find quality wins there. USC/Nova, Wake/Kansas, Iowa/Xavier, UTEP/Tennessee. The latter 2 are especially fun.
The Wooden Legacy is also underway. Marquette and SDSU should get through. Why do we have G. Washington/Miami in one game and Creighton/Arizona St in another? Brutal draw - the loser of Creighton/Arizona St is going to be trapped in a very bad losers bracket.
Old Spice starts too. Butler, Okla St, and Memphis are severe favorites to advance, with a high-stakes St Joe's/LSU game as the nightcap.
Las Vegas Invitational is underway, UCLA/Nevada and Mizzou/Northwestern, UCLA and Mizzou needing to hold serve.
Great Alaska quarters continue. The big one here is Denver/Harvard.
