12/1 recap

signature wins:
@Gonzaga 91, Creighton 74 - WCC is way down (I've mentioned this a few times now), so these mean more to Gonzaga at this point
Purdue 80, @Maryland 75 - as a road win, will likely go down in Tier 1.  Early chance for Maryland to get a Tier 1 win goes by the boards early
Boise St 73, @Oregon 70 - road wins like this are golden, and can make a resume if the other pieces are in order

stuff:
North Carolina 85, Davidson 75 - appears to go down as a neutral site win
@Northwestern 72, Illinois 68 - likely won't mean much more than a service hold for NU

catastrophe of the day:
Grambling 64, Georgia Tech 63.  Grambling is not a Top 350 D1 program.

There are 351 D1 programs.

There is no amount of words that can quantify how catastrophic this loss is.

miscellany:
Towson won a neutral site game over LaSalle...Pitt won a roadie over Duquesne, actually surprised by that...Louisiana won an easy roadie, and I think the Sun Belt could be very interesting this year between them, the Georgias, and UTA
