We were out of town all weekend, so we saw very little in the way of games, so let us know if we missed something…

Weekend Wrapup:

• #24 Notre Dame 86, #20 Marquette 83. ND just does not lose at home anymore (34 in a row).
• Kentucky 62, Alabama 52. Is UK going to make a serious run at the NCAAs?
• #2 Duke 90, Boston College 80. We still have trouble believing Duke is the class of the ACC this year, but the D’Antoni infuence is working pretty well for Coach K.
• #19 Texas A&M 77, Missouri 69. Isn’t half of Mizzou in jail right now?
• Florida 77, Georgia 67. We bet Billy D. wishes every game this year was in Gainesville.
• #6 Tennessee 47, LSU 45. Games like this are why we can never completely trust UT.
• #12 Texas 71, Iowa St. 65 (OT). UT got a scare in Ames.
• #16 Washington St. 74, USC 50. Anyone care to explain what happened here?
• #17 UConn 80, Georgia Tech 68. UConn is playing like they’re a F4 contender right now.
• #1 Memphis 84, C. Florida 65. We really can’t wait for the UT game in two weeks.
• Old Dominion 72, George Mason 64. Mason really needed to win this game, and they didn’t.
• Vanderbilt 66, South Carolina 65. Vandy is going to be very happy they won this game on March 16.
• Arkansas 75, Ole Miss 69. Arkansas appears to be the class of the SEC West.
• #18 Kansas St. 82, Oklahoma St. 61. K-State is a team nobody will want to see in March.
• Oregon 92, California 70. If anyone can figure either of these teams out, please tell us how.
• #14 Michigan St. 70, Northwestern 55. NW is now 0-10 in the Big Ten.
• #9 Stanford 71, Oregon St. 56. Speaking of sucky teams, OSU is now 0-11 in the Pac-10.
• #3 Kansas 100, Baylor 90. How do you score 100 pts w/o hitting a single three?
• #11 Drake 73, Evansville 65 . Who can believe that the Drake is now 13-0 in the Valley?
• #13 Butler 62, Wisc-Green Bay 57. Butler dodged not one, but two, bullets last week.
• #23 Louisville 59, #7 Georgetown 51. Remember when Pitino teams pushed the ball – great win for UL, though.
• Purdue 72, #7 Wisconsin 67. Purdue is for our money the best money in the B10.
• #10 Xavier 76, St. Joseph’s 72. Is Xavier a darkhorse F4 candidate (as Wahl suggested in his M8)?
• #15 Indiana 59, Ohio St. 53. IU had a very successful week (albeit ugly).
• Arizona St. 59, Arizona 54. Man, there are so many good teams in this league this year.
• Washington 71, #4 UCLA 61. How does UCLA win in Pullman but lose in Seattle two yrs in a row?
• #5 UNC 103, Clemson 93. Is there a bigger choker situation than Clemson in Chapel Hill?
