That's a rough drop for Providence.

That's a rough drop for Providence.

Gosh no joke. And I was thinking Kentucky was a borderline tourney team and now they’re #22 overall.

3 Q1 wins in a row followed by a 32 point thumping of Auburn will do that.

Definitely feel like Providence is too low, by about 3-4 spots maybe.

One thing on the list to watch- Virginia, who is just behind UConn and Xavier- got news this morning that their former coach Terry Holland passed away. So you know tomorrow night will be emotional.

Will this loss FINALLY get Iowa St dipping in the brackets????

You would hope that losing 6 of 7 would have some impact.

13 Gonzaga Wed vs Chicago St

Huh?

13 Gonzaga Wed vs Chicago St

Huh?

They pretty much knew they were going to totally be off this week given their tourney so they got a cupcake now instead of December. Sort of smart scheduling.

Lunardi from today with potential matchups:
Marquette 3 S Albany vs Colgate, Kentucky/Wisc/Ariz St
Xavier 4 MW Orlando vs Utah Valley, TCU/Bradley
Providence 7 MW Denver vs Memphis, Baylor/E Washington
UConn 4 E Albany vs Yale, Miami/Iona
Creighton 6 E Greensboro vs Nevada, Tennessee/Furman

If you're Creighton you love that. Like the path for UConn as well.

man looking at the 12 and 13 lines- they look like they could be something. from Bracketville:
12's are Oral Roberts, VCU, Hofstra, and Southern Miss
13's are Bradley, Toledo, Utah Valley, and Iona

now not all of them will win- but then again, VCU and Hofstra would be replaced by as good if not better teams quite possibly.
