By the end of the day half the teams that started on Thursday will be headed home, half will be moving on to the next round. There were a few upsets as teams seeded higher beat the expected winner:
ek hornbeck would have been happy, #11 Syracuse literally wiped the court with #6 San Diego St. 78 – 62
#15 Oral Roberts shocked #2 Ohio St that went into overtime.
#12 Oregon St wiped the court with #5 Tennessee.
# 13 North Texas shocked #4 Perdue in overtime.
Not so surprising #9 Wisconsin walked all over #8 N. Carolina.
#10 Rutgers made my kid happy, she’s a graduate. She’s not a sports fan,at all, but used to go to the games with friends.
Here are yesterday results:
#1 Baylor 79 – #16 Hartford 55
#8 Loyola Chicago 71 – #9 Georgia Tech 60
#6 Texas Tech 65 – #11 Utah St. 53
