3/1 recap

@Villanova 83, DePaul 62

Virginia 64, @Clemson 57 - that was Clemson's last chance to be viable, by the way
@Louisville 56, Georgia Tech 53 - and that was GT's one chance to become relevant
@Duke 79, Wake Forest 71

@Oklahoma 73, Baylor 71 - staying alive in the race for the 1 line

Indiana 81, @Iowa 78 - okay, NOW we can start seeding Indiana in the top 4 lines.  And seeding Iowa well outside the top 4 lines  Big change.  And of course the conference title should mean something...and Indiana has it?  They're the biggest wild card for the next 2 weeks for seeding purposes.  Some people are just simply going to miss, and miss big on them.  The problem is I have no idea in which direction people will miss
Purdue 81, @Nebraska 62

Texas A&M 81, @Auburn 63
Kentucky 88, @Florida 79 - Florida still in legit trouble

@George Washington 74, George Mason 52
@Arkansas-Little Rock 89, Arkansas St 80
San Diego St 83, @New Mexico 56
@St Mary's 73, Grand Canyon 64 - your final non-con game of the entire season...and don't laugh, but GC has a really good W-L so this matters to St Mary's marginal non-con SoS

Atlantic Sun quarterfinals:
Lipscomb 92, Jacksonville 89
FGCU 74, Kennesaw St 64
North Florida 92, South Carolina Upstate 69
Stetson 82, NJIT 67 - the 2 and 3 seeds (NJIT/Jax) are now gone.  1/4 (UNF/FGCU) in one half of the bracket, and two garbage teams in the other half.  Uh oh

Patriot first round:
Navy 78, Lafayette 70
Holy Cross 72, Loyola(MD) 67

NITWatch:
Akron wins again, they've got the MAC crown, beating Ohio and probably knocking them off the NIT bubble themselves...Marquette over Georgetown; Marquette looks good for a NIT bid and G'town is 2 under .500...LSU won, and they should finally have the NIT bid secured
