So in other words - enjoy your Friday night. Nothing to see here. We'll catch up again on Saturday.

Not so fast. I invited Phil for a drink in Cleveland once, but he never took the offer.

As for the viewing guide, let us know if we miss anything. We weren't even going to post anything tonight, but Ryan still was able to scrape from the scrap. Tomorrow should be a doozy and I'm sure I'll gloss over a bunch.

First of all, I didn't know the drink offer was revoked. Second of all, part of my charm is keeping people from meeting me so that I seem way cooler/smarter/interesting on the internet than I am in real life.

Bump. Andrei updated for tomorrow's games.

If you were curious, we went 0-4 on the games I projected tonight (assuming Oregon State doesn't come back from down 20). Fortunately, they were three low impact games and one bubble team who was heavily favored. Not too much of a loss. In fact, the win is going to drop Cal's RPI by at least 5 points.

We went 5-5 on the bubble today. Could have been bigger but MTSU and Houston both escaped with victories in the last seconds. Monmouth handled Iona but is a stretch at best for a bid. Illinois beat a terrible Nebraska squad and is somehow still considered alive. The Vadgers let us down at Michigan State, they are likely locked in now.

2-1 on the bubble tonight. We got a 2 spot RPI boost because of Western Carolina and Howard winning. UT Arlington rolled Troy but they are a fringe bubble team at best. Shouldn't hurt us too much.

Andrei is doing the update tomorrow. Lots of bubbly goodness.

Updated for today's contests. Some low risk, high reward games for Marquette. Providence and Hall play a pair of easy opponents. Wins don't really help their resume but losses could be devastating. There is also a surprisingly significant Mountain West matchup.

Not a bad day for us. We went 5-3 on the important games. Indiana and Akron have bullets in them. Fresno is a bona fide top 100 win. And Vanderbilt is likely out of chances to pass us. Georgetown almost gifted us a win against Seton Hall but they blew it.

Tomorrow is the biggest bubble day since last Saturday. Article should be up in the morning.

Our RPI did drop 3 slots last night. Hopefully can be more than made up today with a W and some more help from our bubble brethren.
I would take the Rick SLU program right now.

Updated for tonight's games. Lots of games with implications for Marquette's RPI. Losses by Houston and Cal would kill any chance of them getting selected over Marquette.

3-3 in our selected games tonight. Biggest results are the Houston and Cal games. Houston officially has a bullet in their at large chances. I don't think there is any situation where Cal can pass Marquette after getting smoked by 30 to an average Utah team.

larry k's team is a little better than average.  depending on how they get seeded, i'd watch their match-up(s) with a little caution toward moving onto the next opponent.  as for cal, they were doing better when they still had the playdough rooms and puppy dog therapy.  judging by their 30 point loss however, they must have gotten rid of something :D

Utah is not making the NCAA tournament, so they won't be getting seeded, unless you're referring to the P12 tournament.
