Air Force lost to Portland St by 7
Portland St lost to Northern Arizona by 19
Northern Arizona lost to UConn by 43

So Creighton was 116 points worse than UConn. Creighton overachieved there by 102 points in real life!

I think Houston is ok. That was a war last night with Texas. Fun watch. Houston gonna be a tough out in the tourney for sure.

UNC lost last night to Clemson. UConn getting more seperation from the Heels for the East 1 seed and having the road to the final 4 being Brooklyn/Boston for them.
