11/5 recap

Welcome to daily recaps!  A quick look at what games actually mattered.

Kentucky 69, Michigan St 62
Duke 68, Kansas 66 - you won't see me say too much on these heavyweight matchups.  Their impact is obvious.  Top teams playing for positioning on the 1 line.

ACC:
They're playing league games already.  20 game conference schedule now.
Louisville 87, @Miami 74
Virginia Tech 67, @Clemson 60
Georgia Tech 82, @NC State 81 (OT)


Signature wins:
St Mary's 65, @Wisconsin 63 (OT) - when you play in the WCC, signature win chances are scant.  Very important pickup, even if Wisky is down
Penn 81, @Alabama 70 - probably the most notable mid-major win of the day

Notable games:
Utah 79, @Nevada 74 - just to remind you that Nevada has receded
UC Riverside 66, @Nebraska 47 - well that's a dumb loss
Davenport 82, @Grand Canyon 73 - GCU was actually supposed to be good, I think
@Valparaiso 79, Toledo 77
@Northern Iowa 58, Old Dominion 53
@St Joseph's 86, Bradley 81
Little Rock 67, @Missouri St 66 - oops.  This was a weird opening night for the MVC
@Kansas St 67, North Dakota St 54 - this win should look better than people think


Most other games are of the service hold varieties, where better teams held home floor over early cupcakes.  We don't mention them in here.
