No. 18 Texas A&M 77, Missouri 69

The lead from the AP: ” Every time he bends over to catch his breath, Donald Sloan sees “Not” on top of his left shoe and “Tired” on top of his right shoe.” I love those kind of antidotes. Don’t look now, but the Aggies have hit the 20-win plateau.

 

No. 19 Connecticut 80, Georgia Tech 68

Ga. Tech had the Huskies’ number in the early point of the game, but UConn keeps getting these wins that make you wonder, “How?” To me, it appears as though UConn is on a collision course with a 6 seed. I just KNOW I will be trapped into picking that 11 in that game because I’m not buying what they are selling; have to see a lot more from them, I guess.

 

Notable

Houston 66, Tulane 56. Just an update: Houston is 18-4, but the SOS is weak, so a win over Memphis on Wednesday would be more than optimal.

Miami (FL) 74, Virginia Tech 71. The Hokies’ chances for dancing officially end; ‘Canes are 16-7, yet still an unimpressive 3-6 in conference play.

Florida 77, Georgia 67. The Gators (ranked in the Coaches) should hop back into the AP Poll on Monday again.

Old Dominion 72, George Mason 64. The Patriots are now 9-4 in the weaker-than-recent CAA and will likely have to run the table to end the regular season in order to keep their Player’s card.

Texas Christian 68, San Diego State 62. Aztecs probably can’t recover from this loss to stake claim for an at-large berth.

Ohio 57, Western Michigan 54. Bobcats (16-7) remain relevant.

Colorado 72, Oklahoma 58. The Sooners lose and, in turn, make themselves quite the ultimate bubble case.
