I have no words for that game......

Refs helped put Duke but NC had every chance to put that game away.

#23 Arizona gets destroyed at home by 12-11 UCLA. The door is wide open for Marquette to move into the rankings with a win tomorrow.

Arizona was 16 point favorite per Pomeroy......92% chance of winning.

Down by 15 with a minute left.

#23 Arizona gets destroyed at home by 12-11 UCLA. The door is wide open for Marquette to move into the rankings with a win tomorrow.

I don't know about wide open. While not perfect, you can usually guess what the top 25 will be using the previous weeks rankings as a starting point and moving teams up and down based on their performance that week. Marquette was the second team out last week with Texas Tech being the team right above them. Texas Tech picked up two wins this week including a Q1 win @Texas so they likely get in before us. #23 Arizona's loss likely drops them and lets the Red Raiders in. Spots #22, 24, and 25 went undefeated this week. It's possible Marquette could leapfrog #25 Houston who only picked up 1 win against a dreadful Tulane squad but some AP voters don't think that way, someone needs to lose for them to move a team down.

#21 Creighton and #20 Illinois both lost this week but both losses were Q1 and had a 340 vote buffer on Marquette last week. Maybe beating Butler at home coupled with those losses is enough to overcome that big of a buffer but you never know. If Marquette wins tomorrow, then #19 Butler will have a Q1 loss but it is offset by a Q1 win against Nova and the 400 vote buffer they had on Marquette last week. Probably the most likely to tumble of the top 25 is #18 LSU who lost twice including a really bad loss to Vanderbilt...though voters may forgive them because they lost at Auburn by 1 in OT, plus they had a 540 vote buffer on MU last week. There is also #16 Michigan State who lost twice but both were Q1 losses.

TLDR: If MU wins, I could see them as high as 20 or as low as top team in the others receiving votes. Let's hope we get a win so we can test the theory.

This didn't account for us blowing out Butler by 19. With our KenPom ranking shooting up to 22, I think we end up comfortably in.

Pretty impressive for Shaka. After only getting 44 points last time his team played Baylor, they got all the way up to 45 this time. Woo-hoo!

Also, I hear Mrs. Shaka is loving the Austin music scene!!!

Purdue’s roller coaster season continues......getting blown out at hole tonight to a very good Penn State team.

On a more encouraging note Vandy up 9 at the half against Kentucky.

Ps former MU recruit Seth Lundy has 6 threes for Penn State.

Purdue has been stellar at home, really surprised by this.  Penn State is for real.  Wonder if Chambers sticks around there or is wooed by a big program.

Would be a bold move to woo a guy whose 1/9. And a whooping 2 games over .500 with the school youre poaching him from.

Vandy 7 for 15 from FT line have hurt them. Have played well. Kentucky has had a strong 2nd half. Vandy has competed well without two of their best players, especially since admin changes.

Wow. Last I checked flipping around. It was a 10 point game with 7 minutes left.

Michigan State lost a 20 point 2nd half lead but survives on a follow up dunk by Tillman with 6 seconds left to win by 1.

Look that one up again, Pak. Hard to believe that the great Ben Howland lost that game.
