Temple loses a tough one

[UcMiami]

Temple just lost to Florida in a tough game - they went into the fourth with a 7 point lead, but lost the period by 14 and the game 83-76. Still a 'good loss'.

Was just about to post on this. Last year Temple beat Florida early in the season at a time when little was expected of the Gators. But then, as Florida developed into a tourney-worthy team, it became Temple's signature win. Unfortunately Temple just didn't do quite enough with the rest of its season to snag a bid.

This year they narrowly miss out on beating a ranked Florida team. Temple will have one more golden opportunity at a signature nonconference win against DePaul at home on Dec. 15.

So ... this seems to be the weekend for upsets - hope our girls are taking note:
Started with Stanford losing to Gonzaga 68-63 last night and has continued today with:
#23 Indiana losing to Western KY 85-74
#18 Arizona State to Marquette 75-63

Add in #1 ND almost losing to Green Bay
#19 FLA squeaking by Temple
and of course #2 Baylor being humbled by #3 Uconn

I guess we have parody (parity ... I know, Kib.)
