A lot of upsets tonight.

[BigT14]

#24 Missouri over #7 mission state
Nc state over #22 Duke
Georgia over #20 Florida
Northwestern over #5 Ohio state

Indiana also upset #18 Michigan state last night

I noticed that earlier. It seems to me that upsets historically happen about this time every year. OSU almost upset us last night. Taking care of the ball, rebounding, and defense are critical to keep winning the games we should win and avoid upsets.

Looks like Arkansas is on its way to take down TN. Maybe Wilson knew something special was building there.

Arkansas trailed Tennessee 32-21 at the half. But, the Hogs won the third quarter, 22-8, and hung on for a 64-59 win. Twenty-four turnovers doomed the Vols. Both teams missed a lot of rather easy and wide open shots, and neither team can handle the ball. It is no surprise that Tennessee has lost five games this year.

And pretty sure ESPN had cooper as top PG - all things don't translate right away in college- IMO coaches are the best to assess players that fit what they do and how they want it done. TN is talented just lots of individual play

Very impressed with Jimmy Dykes coaching ay Arkie. Holly may be in trouble at Rocky Top.

Holly has to be on the hot seat. She has not done anything positive with that program. It's definitely not ideal to replace a legend, and then you do it at an all-time great program. Her results haven't been terrible, but not anywhere near UT standards.

And her recruiting definitely hasn't done anything. I think they hold on to her until Tyler is ready to take over that program.

Tyler isn't doing anything special either.

I don't know what is being done that is good at Arkansas. They are 7-10 and ranked #158 by the NCAA rpi. They have not won even one game on the road or at a neutral site. They are 7-2 at home. Their losses include Tulsa and Louisiana-Lafayette.

One good thing is they beat A&M at home. We could not beat them in OKC.

If you take the most negative anti-OU slant, yeah. Of course, OU did win two against good teams at a neutral site: BC and Utah. OU did beat a pretty sound Washington team on their home floor. Arkansas has not won even one game at a neutral site or on the road.

 

[soonerstar]

You did not mention North Texas. That is not negative, just realistic. Dykes is in his second year at Pig U. His record is better than Coale had at the same time in her second year. Just stating the facts, not being negative.

The "upsets" continue.
#17 UCLA 56
Washington 64

Washington has been playing well. They began conference play with three straight road games, winning the first two before losing to Utah. They lost at home to #14 Arizona State before winning the next two. At 4-2, they are in the conference title hunt, with ASU having a clear lead.

#11 Stanford 64
Oregon 62

Stanford outscored Oregon 8-1 in the last five minutes to pull out a win over 0-5 Oregon. Stanford is 4-1, but have some disadvantages. They have played the weak teams.

Utah 60
Arizona 55

Utah is now 5-1 in conference, tied with Stanford. Remember that we did beat both Utah and Washington.

edit to add: #25 USC fell to Washington State.
