Xavier 69, Dayton 43 Yes, total ass-kicking. Before you pull a Shanoffian overreaction to this one game and call them a fraud, consider the Flyers were without two of their best players and haven't won a game at Xavier in their last 23 attemps. Nonetheless, a great win for Musketeers who at times have looked very, very good. I'm not going to downgrade Dayton just yet. Playing without two top players on the road, a lot of teams would have a similar fate.
Stanley Burrell is officially on the All-Jess Settles team.
In the 'Zone for long distance Washington State plays exceptionally tough defense, so the Wildcats decided to just bypass the physicality and shot over top of the Cougars. 12 for 21 on the night from 3-point range, Arizona cruised to a nice Pac-10 win. Zona is the west coast's Maryland -- can beat anyone then follow it up with a loss to anyone.
Love returns to Oregon Kevin Love provided an upsetting reminder of what the Ducks lost when the Bruins freshman spurned his dad's alma mater for Westwood. 26 points, 18 rebounds will do the trick.
Mike Patrick is just awful In these instance below it's true that Deron Washington was trying play Duke's game of flopping, but unfortunately he doesn't do it as well. What was embarrassing for Patrick and Len Elmore was their failure all game to acknowledge the Blue Devils role in any of the tough and failure to be even the slightest bit critical. It's was one of the worst slobberings to date.
