Games worthy of note 2013-2014

[Bill Marsh]

Richmond lost 69-60 at George Mason tonight.
Indiana State lost by 18 at Illinois State.
Boise State down 19 in 2nd half at Fresno State.
NC State loses in OT to UNC.

Each of these teams started the night in the high 40s or 50s in RPI. Mostly unexpected results which help SJU, PC and GU.

The Boise game is final. They lost by 20.

Nebraska's loss to a bad Illinois team also helps the cause since Nebraska is a bubble team needing a road win like this to get consideration.

#12 SLU loses at home to #220 Duquesne; 71-64

#23 VCU wins at #191 Fordham: 85-66

#'s are RPI ranking.

Ranked teams: Memphis, Ohio St., Kentucky, and probably Iowa all lose.

Crazy night.

Every ranked team in action, except Louisville, lost tonight.

Oregon's chances on the bubble got a boost with a double OT win over short handed UCLA on the road.

[marquette]

Yep, not a great bubble night for the Big East. Not much bubble action tonight, so we can just sit back and enjoy PC-SHU.

Oregon's chances on the bubble got a boost with a double OT win over short handed UCLA on the road.

2 bubble teams got huge boosts last night- Oregon and Arkansas.

Virginia became the first team* to ever lose an OOC game by 35+ points, and then go on to win the ACC regular season title. Best Conference Ever tm.
