12/22 recap

Signature wins:
Xavier 77, @Northern Iowa 67 - likely a Group 1 road win
St Bonaventure 60, @Syracuse 57 - here's a Group 1 road win, and one the A-10 desperately needed.  Bonaventure will have a legit at-large pulse
Texas 66, @Alabama 50 - and your other possible Group 1 road win for the day

Quality wins:
@Oklahoma 104, Northwestern 78
@Georgia 84, Temple 66
@Clemson 89, Louisiana 60
@Pittsburgh 63, Towson 59
@East Tennessee St 79, Georgia Southern 59
@Missouri St 64, Loyola(Chi) 59

lolz:
Stony Brook 75, @Rutgers 73
Rider 71, @Penn St 70 - oy
Wright St 85, @Georgia Tech 81

Diamond Head:
Middle Tennessee 69, Princeton 67
USC 84, Akron 53
New Mexico St 69, Davidson 68
Miami 75, Hawaii 57 - hey another tournament to work with!  The best 4 teams won here, so good news for all legitimate tournament teams.  Miami and USC seem the two best, but MTSU and NMSU can resurrect bubble hopes with 2 more wins here

Las Vegas Classic:
Nevada 86, Southern Illinois 64
Duquesne 67, San Francisco 65 - here's a dumb thing:  matchups are fixed, so Nevada plays USF and misses Duquesne.  Okay.  Whatever.  Nevada needs 2 wins to not damage its resume anyways
