Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Monday, December 21, 2009

So, it was a tough weekend for (some) undefeateds.

1) Most notably, #2 Stanford rather handily defeated #3 Tennessee, 67-52.

2) #25 James Madison met the #8 Blue Devils and it was Duke who emerged victorious., 79-65.

3) An undermanned Blue Demon team may have lost their best player to an ACL, but they still have a Quigley (17pts). Depaul enjoyed the Las Vegas neutral court and took down #6 Florida State, 75-60. (It was DePaul coach Bruno's 700th game)

4) (Then) #18 Nebraska stomped all over (then) #9 LSU, 77-63.

5) Add tonight's #20 Michigan State's 67-59 victory over the Bonnies (whose furious comeback fell short), and the ranks of the undefeated have slimmed down mightily. By my count 7 are left (which is probably wrong, and certainly will change post the UConn-Stanford match-up this Wed.)
#1 UConn
#2 Stanford
#3 Notre Dame
#9 Georgia
#14 Nebraska (best start in team history)
#22 UW-Green Bay (best start in team history)
Syracuse
Kentucky
(on edit. Told ya!)
