Nice win by the Buckeyes. Several chances to fold down the stretch but they held it together for a huge win over #4 Kentucky.

12/19 recap (Part 1)

The top 10 is gonna loon very different come Monday. 4, 7 and 9 have already lost, and 5 is down double digits, almost at the half.

So true, sir. Kentucky (losing to Ohio State), Duke (Utah), and Iowa State (Northern Iowa... wait, NORTHERN IOWA?!) have all lost.

This is great news for Virginia (who beat Villanova), but not good for Purdue (who lost too, against Butler).

Other important Top 25 games:
Michigan State over Northeastern 78-58
Oklahoma over Creighton 87-74
North Carolina over UCLA 89-76
Arizona over UNLV 82-70
Texas A&M over Baylor 80-61

Things are snowy over in New York (however brief it might be), so let's see today's slate of games: (All times are Eastern)

Pittsburgh vs. Davidson [From Madison Square Garden] (12:00)
Monmouth @ Rutgers (1:00)
East Carolina @ James Madison (2:00)
Evansville @ Fresno State (4:00)

 

[Texas Jefe]

So Indiana pulled it out. Florida beat Oky state. Aggies thumped Baylor.

Texas hung on to beat Stanford. Had good lead most of the game, then decided to not cover Pickens. That guy was money with the threes. And Humphrey came alive at the end. Couple of good players.

Isaiah Taylor made a great shot in the last seconds to pull it out for Texas.

Evansville over Fresno State 85-77

I'll be at the Wake/Xavier game tonight. Its the Skip Prosser Classic.

Probably the biggest Wake game since 2010.

 

[tabascojet]

ArLR with first loss of the season...cincy can't hit one of 3 attempts to win the game at the buzzer

 

[Hitman Hart]

I'm surprised at the amount of bullshit that went against wake tonight. Refs were awful

Wake ultimately lost because they Xavier on the ropes and let them off.

Announcers kept talking about how young this Xavier team is and how they could be poised for a run in the future....
