After several days of drab games, an explosion!
Signature wins:
Oklahoma 91, @Wichita St 83 - what I like to call a Group 0 win right here. A transcendent Group 1 win.
Purdue 82, Butler 67 - neutral site wins like this are always useful
Indiana 80, Notre Dame 77 (OT) - IU's already on the brink of season failure, and UND absorbs a loss they'd rather not, given more will be coming in ACC. Don't want to use up your resume goodwill like this
Oklahoma St 71, Florida St 70 - neutral site wins everywhere! This is a good one for OSU
Clemson 71, Florida 69 - something might be wrong with Florida. Wasn't taking Clemson too seriously before, and still might not, but I'm officially watching
potent potables:
Michigan St 86, Oakland 73 - neutral site win, for the record
Miami 59, @George Washington 50 - road wins are never trivial
Kansas 73, @Nebraska 72 - road wins, triviality, etc etc
Arizona 89, @New Mexico 73 - blah blah blah
Cincinnati 77, @UCLA 63 - lol Pac-12
Louisville 81, Memphis 72
Syracuse 86, Georgetown 79 (OT) - please tell me you weren't taking G'town seriously either
Auburn 76, MTSU 70 - aw, I was hoping MTSU would make another at-large run
Oregon 68, @Fresno St 61 - road wins, etc etc
Iowa St 76, Northern Iowa 65 - this will prove to be a useful Group 1 win
holding serve (games where the winning team gets a modest resume boost and the loser isn't hurt):
@Kentucky 93, Virginia Tech 86
@Xavier 68, East Tennessee St 66 (ETSU should post a decent record this year)
@St Bonaventure 81, Vermont 79
@Rhode Island 68, Charleston 62
@VCU 85, Bucknell 79
@BYU 77, Utah 65
near-disasters:
@Gonzaga 89, North Dakota 83 (OT)
Northwestern 62, @DePaul 60
catastrophic losses:
@Rutgers 71, Seton Hall 65 - this being a roadie means it's not too bad, but still...it's Rutgers
UNC Greensboro 81, @NC State 76 - oy
Stephen F Austin 83, @LSU 82
@Milwaukee 73, Loyola(Chi) 56 - that at-large candidacy was fledgling
@UMass 72, Georgia 62
New Mexico St 74, Illinois 69
