12/7 recap

Signature win of the day:
@Washington 49, San Diego St 36 - I wasn't quite sure how seriously I should take U-Dub,  But they did tear through a (weak) neutral site tournament, and now have a signature win.  They're in play.  SDSU, this is probably the difference between a top 2 or 3 seed, and a 4 or 5 seed

Impact games:
@Georgia 64, Colorado 57 - Georgia already did plenty of damage to their resume; this is just step 1 in the rehabilitation process.  Not a great game for Colorado to drop
FGCU 84, @UMass 75 - Ok, NOW UMass has dropped too many games of note, despite them scheduling up.  This could get FGCU off the 16 line in March
Ole Miss 79, @Oregon 73 - Still think Ole Miss isn't any good, but they do have Oregon, Creighton, and Cincy on their dossier now
@Clemson 68, Arkansas 65 (OT) - Clemson still isn't good.  The real news is Arkansas finally dropping a game they shouldn't have
Creighton 65, @Nebraska 55 - Not a good dropped game for NU, they might be more in the bubble range than I thought.  Big, big road win for Creighton to stay in the bubble picture

Quick-hitters:
@James Madison 51, Richmond 46
George Washington 78, Charlotte 70
Radford 68, @Virginia Tech 66 - yikes, ACC
California 63, @Nevada 56 - road win

Cupcake winners:  Georgetown, Colorado St, Tulsa, Wyoming, Stephen F Austin, Kentucky, North Carolina, West Virginia, UCLA
