bubble watch:
Arkansas 71, Kentucky 67 (OT) - signature road win and now Arkansas clearly has the 3rd best profile in this conference. Clearly in as of now, but they must defend their position. Kentucky has probably thrown away a chance at a 3 or 4 seed without a win over Florida
Marquette 75, Georgetown 73 - welp, G'town keeps clawing their way back onto the bubble then loses a tossup game to lose their grip. They're out of losses. Marquette is barely breathing and is doing more to mess up the rest of the conference
Gonzaga 70, Pacific 53
bad loss alerts:
Duquesne 71, St Louis 64 - so wait, St Louis wins all these tough games, has even tougher games coming up, and decides to lose at home in this one instead? What a waste of a mulligan. This is worth a seeding line or three.
Indiana 93, Iowa 86 - Iowa might lose a top-4 seed for good now. Indiana is still not close to the bubble, don't get excited
Penn St 65, Ohio St 63 - speaking of losing a top-4 seed...
Houston 77, Memphis 68 - what the hell is going on tonight? so many awful losses
holding serve:
Louisville 88, Temple 66
Southern Miss 78, FIU 66
VCU 85, Fordham 66
Louisiana Tech 55, Middle Tennessee 39 - by the way, the CUSA race is now a 4 team clusterfuck at 11-3 (USM, LaTech, MTSU, Tulsa), with UTEP one back after losing to Tulsa. 3 to go for everyone
small school watch:
North Florida 79, Mercer 76 (OT) - horrible home loss and Mercer has given the A-Sun title to FGCU...
Lipscomb 92, FGCU 71 - or not. still tied with 1 to play
Vermont 69, Stony Brook 53 - Vermont wins A-East
North Dakota St 82, South Dakota 54 - NDSU wins the Summit
Siena 72, Quinnipiac 70 - this gives the MAAC title to Iona
Stephen F Austin 103, New Orleans 63 - 15-0 in the Southland
Utah Valley 66, New Mexico St 61 (OT) - UVU 1 up with 2 to play now
UC Irvine 71, UCSB 60 - UCI is 1 up with 3 to play
