Thursday games and upset alerts

[EricLA]

Kentucky leading SC by 4 at the half. Would actually love to see Kentucky win - that should put to rest any comments that SC is the #1 team in the country...

Georgia thumping #20 Florida by 11 at the half. Florida leapt into the top 25 after their inspired win against Tennessee. (That was a bit of sarcasm)...

NC State up 4 on Duke at half time

Maryland in a squeaker (won by 7) over 10-6 Michigan.

 

[Biff]

Wildcats lead at the half. 32- 28

 

[HuskyNan]

And Duke is up by one over NC State with 8:30 left in the game. Elon beat NC State earlier this year.

 

[TerpWomenFan]

Northwestern is up by 8 over Ohio State early.

KY was outplaying SC to start the 3rd quarter, had it up to 47-40. Then Sessions took over and has it up to 47-46 now. Fouls may be an issue for both teams. Wilson has 3

FWIW I think there is way more parity in WCBB than ever before. Remember in the NCAA's - in the sweet 16 it was mostly 1-4 seeds and it was rare when a lower seed sprung an upset. I have a feeling we will be seeing lots of upsets in the NCAA's this year - and I wouldn't be surprised to see a few non-1 seeds at the final 4...

Northwestern is up by 8 over Ohio State early.

Northwestern is ranked, though. A tough game is to be expected.

Georgia 50 Florida 36 - at the end of the third quarter. Yes, Florida is averaging 12 points a quarter.

NC State up 58-55 over Duke with 3 minutes left in the game.

 

[HuskyNan]

Ohio State down 48-30 at the half. It's a unexpected beatdown.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Ohio State down 20 points, 48-28, at the half. It's a unexpected beatdown.

Such a Jekyll and Hyde team this year.

 

[trb123]

Kentucky unable to match up with SCAR in the 4Q.

But Duke is going toe to toe with NC State trailing 61-57 with 24s on the clock.

Now NC State is up 62-59 with 15 ticks left.

 

[Orangutan]

Duke is going down as long as NC State makes free throws. Another ignominious home court defeat for JPM & Co.

Yep, Duke's toast and falls 65-62.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Duke could drop from top 25

Wilson was great tonight. Always a relief to win one against Kentucky.

[TerpWomenFan]

Missouri with a bounce back game against Mississippi State at home. Up 36-25 at the half.

I was watching the post game interviews with SC's Wilson and Coach Staley and I thought the Kentucky Derby was about to start.
So the question is, Is "My Old Kentucky Home" the Alma Mater song of UK, or the official song of the Kentucky Derby,.......or both?

 

[UcMiami]

Well, they Duke is a great academic institution, and JPM is proving it, by making sure her team learns lots of lessons every game out!

It's the state song of Kentucky. I don't think it's their alma mater, too, but I'm not certain.

Greyhound Bus lines is now an Official Sponsor of Dukes WBB.

 

[CocoHusky]

Yep, Duke's toast and falls 65-62.

Two questions:
1) How far is NCST campus from the Duke Campus?
2) Will JPM make her team walk back to campus?
