Message: [QUOTE="Plebe, post: 4200468, member: 6927"] Two somewhat bad losses in a row for Michigan, after their high-water mark at #4 in the AP poll after beating Indiana. The loss to Michigan State can be explained as a rivalry game; to Northwestern, not so much. I guess they're missing Leigha Brown. Some other notable results: — UCF asserts control of 1st place in the AAC with a sweep of South Florida, going away in the 2nd half. Final score 54-33. I believe both of these teams will make the NCAAT, although S. Florida needs to stop losing to the weaker teams. — Rhode Island maintains its half-game lead over Dayton in the A-10, with a solid win over Fordham. URI plays Dayton on Wednesday, the first of two meetings vs. the Flyers in 11 days to which will likely determine 1st place. — Villanova hasn't exactly followed up well on its win over UConn: needed OT to beat Marquette, and now lost by 12 to Seton Hall. 'Nova reverted to its usual over-reliance on Siegrist, who scored more than half their points. Garzon, who lit up UConn, was 0-5 from 3 and only finished with 4 points. — Georgia Tech narrowly averted what would've been a horrible loss to bottom-feeder Clemson, in overtime. I'd say that keeps alive GT's hopes of hosting first weekend. — NC State pulls away from Duke in what was a very close game until the last 4 minutes. Wolfpack close on a 17-5 run. Numerous other significant games, including potential upsets, are still in progress. [/QUOTE]
