Kentucky holds on to beat #5 Tennessee at Knoxville 63-56.

@tzznandrew weren't you the one warning people not to dunk on Kentucky too early?

Kentucky holds on to beat #5 Tennessee at Knoxville 63-56.

That’s a bad loss if you’re Tenn. At home. And it took UK almost 6 minutes to score in the game.

Just watched this game. There should be a rule that neither team has to get a win in a college basketball game, and it should be applied today in Knoxville.

Tennessee missed about 8 wide-open layups. Kentucky turned it over 20 times, tried to give the game away in every possible away and the Vols refused to take it.

Providence learning the challenge of playing on the road in the Big East. Hopkins just drove, gave a shoulder to his man and was called for a charge. The kind of call he usually gets at the Dunk. He was pissed about the call, said the magic word to the ref and got T'd up.

EDIT: Turns out the tech was on Cooley...sure looked like they initially called it on Hopkins.

 

[jibsey]

That is the kind of high quality road win Kentucky needed.

3 ranked teams have played today, all lost. 3 are at halftime, all may lose.

A little perspective I hope for some people on this board. But probably not, as only Dan Hurley losses game.

On one level I hate seeing UNC win, but on another level, it is hilarious to see Louisville suck.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Great game on ESPN+ with 15-1 Florida Atlantic trying to protect their 14 game winning streak against 14-3 North Texas (KenPom #59).

North Texas has command of the game but FAU only down three with 13 to go. Sell out crowd at FAU.

So much fun watching how FAU coach Dusty May in how he basically plays with four true guards on the floor all the time (their starting 4 guard is 6'4 203).

No points for Gaffney yet.

Providence getting a pretty bad whistle here at Creighton. Maybe there's something to that theory after all.

it’s almost like terrible officiating can impact the outcomes of games.

Eehh. They just aren’t getting away with fouls like they normally do.

 

[Huskyforlife]

Road games are hard.

Providence down to Creighton

Arkansas down 11 6:20 to go at 8-8 Vandy

Alabama having their way with LSU. 29 - 11 in first half.

New word in bama game, "gravitability". Pulling the D player into you as you take your shot,

 

[SoFla Steve]

Upsets all over CBB today. The only ranked team to win so far was #17 TCU over #11 K-State.

Other losers:

#15 Arkansas​

#18 Wisconsin​

#16 Miami​

#5 Tennessee​

and last, but not least . . . #19 Providence!​

During the Alabama game during a time out they put up Bracketology with Joe Lunardi: 1 seeds Kansas, Alabama, Purdue, and Houston. 2 seeds Tennessee, UConn UCLA, and Arizona.

I didn't see the UK-Tenn game, but checked the box score. Tenn put up more shots and more threes, UK shot under 40%, but had a wide margin on the glass. But the most interesting stat was that UK took 15 more FTs than Tenn. And made 15 more FTs than Tenn... in Tenn's building.

That's something I haven't seen in the BE.

How in hell does ISU-KU end up on ESPN+?

ISU picked 9th in pre-season B12.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Other losers:

#15 Arkansas​

Not the same team without Nick Smith (out indefinitely) and Trevon Brazile (out for the year). Two of their top four scorers plus frontcourt has way less upside without Brazile.

It's a cascading effect, too. The starters are worse, and also now they have to play bench guys who suck.

 

[karstenkibbe]

Massive one-point home win for my alma mater Binghamton against the America East front runner UMass Lowell, who are having a heck of a season and who Lunardi has penciled in as the automatic qualifier.

Florida beats #20 Missouri

Florida beats #20 Missouri

Another road loss btw.
