I wouldn't be surprised if Oklahoma stays in the top 3 unless they lose again.

I'm assuming it has something to do with the blizzard, empty house for SMU and Temple. Probably want Temple to win.

I'm sure it was with the blizzard. Actually non AAC fans should have been rooting for SMU. Temple now up to #72 in RPI and pretty close to getting in at large range. The toughest part of their conference schedule is over now. only 3 of 11 games left with the top teams- 2 with Tulsa and 1 with UConn.

Tennessee beats Kentucky and now their RPI is under 100. Helps out Butler.

top teams in other conferences seem to help other teams out for whatever reason. Not happening as much in the Big East.

Yeah, Xavier and Villanova need to lose a few more games. Their RPI's are nice and shiny at 2 and 4. Villanova can start tomorrow ;) .

PC got it rolling tonight....

what's funny is kind of similar to the AAC- look who beats SMU. Houston and Temple. Teams with not too great shot at the tourney.

Evansville got upset by Northern Iowa. MVC 1 bid conference unless Wichita loses in the conference tourney....

Grayson Allen is a typical sneaky Duke-style punk.

In the Louisville game tonight, he tripped an opponent as the guy was starting to make his way up court.

Back in December, vs Georgetown, Allen deliberately but sneakily shoved a Hoya (either Peak or Cameron) face first, into the hoop upright, as the Hoya drove for a layup (this would have been mid to late 2nd). He actually got away with it not being a flagrant.

A team is a reflection on their coach. Coach K is a whiny, wimpering wimp. "Amazing". How many other teams do you see this bullsh-- from?

Seriously, how did he not get immediately ejected from the game?
