Wednesday's Results

Some good games featuring ranked teams tonight. A pretty big surprise with Gonzaga beating North Carolina, but I thought that Gonzaga would be a tough matchup. Butler also upset Tennessee to make it a Butler vs. Gonzaga final in the NIT (I'm sure this isn't what ESPN was hoping for). UCLA continued their good play to capture the Maui Invitational with a win against Georgia Tech.

Top 25 Scores:

Gonzaga 82 - I usually think they're all hype, but not this year.
(2) North Carolina 74

(5) UCLA 88 - I would have them Final 4 if the tournament was today.
(19) Georgia Tech 73 - Good showing in Maui for this young group despite loss.

(20) Kentucky 63 - Will fall out of Top 25 even though lost to higher ranked opponents.
(12) Memphis 80 - The 2nd half meltdown vs. Georgia Tech helped them to dominate in today's 2nd half.

(14) Georgetown 73
Fairfield 60

Samford 57
(15) Arizona

Charlotte 67
(17) Syracuse 79

Butler 56 - Kept Tennessee from playing the run and gun game.
(22) Tennessee - 25% FG, 25% 3's, 55% FT

(23) Boston College 64 - bad loss to a team that lost to Brown by 10.
Providence 73

Other Scores:
