11/23 recap

Legends Classic:
Marquette 81, LSU 80 - horrible loss for LSU because their schedule doesn't have many of these chances left
Arizona St 79, NC State 76 - and not a good look for NCSU either

Maui:
Kansas 123, Chaminade 72
Wake Forest 82, Indiana 78 - and there's your catastrophic loss.  Wrong side of the bracket, and Indiana will leave Maui with zero quality opponents added to the sked
Vanderbilt 92, St John's 55
UCLA 77, UNLV 75

CBE HoF Classic:
North Carolina 80, Northwestern 69
Kansas St 66, Missouri 42

Paradise Jam:
Florida St 90, Ohio 81
Indiana St 67, Hofstra 66 - probably fatal to their fledgling at-large hopes
South Carolina 83, Tulsa 75 - and USC wins the tourney and leaves with a useful win.  Tulsa had wiggle room thanks to Wichita, but you'd rather not spend some of it on a team like this

Gulf Coast:
Murray St 66, Milwaukee 63
Drake 81, Western Kentucky 79 (OT)
Weber St 63, Central Michigan 60 - a catastrophic loss for the MAC.  CMU needed the SoS help of being in the winners' side of the bracket, if nothing else
Pepperdine 84, Duquesne 70

Men who speak up:
UMass 82, Clemson 65
Creighton 85, Rutgers 75

Notables:
@Iowa St 83, Chattanooga 63
@Providence 83, NJIT 76
@Davidson 77, Mercer 71
UT-Arlington 68, @Memphis 64 - notable:  UTA has won at Ohio St and Memphis back-to-back

Cupcake winners:  Michigan St, Cal, Xavier, West Virginia, Illinois, Baylor, Boise St, SDSU
