In other tournament news, the most significant game involved traditional power Cincinnati losing to Southern Miss, 63-61, in the first round of the Conference USA Tournament. Such a loss won't help the struggling Bearcats, but I'm inclined to believe that a high RPI and one of the toughest schedules in the country (including a blow-out win over fellow Bubblite Oregon at a neutral court) should get them into the tournament with a 17-11 record.
Today's tournament schedule, all times Eastern.
