Tuesday Night Games

We are under 1 week to conference tournaments starting and the bubble is going to tighten up.  Tonight we have some matchups to watch on the bubble and just in general.  Let's start with the bubble games:

Georgetown at Villanova - Nova is in my Next Four Out but have solid computer numbers.  Can't lose to Georgetown if they want to dance

Cincinnati at Houston - Cincinnati is dropping and is just below Villanova.  Can they catch Houston sleeping after a big win at Baylor?

Pittsburgh at Clemson - I'm barely watching Pittsburgh and will stop watching them if they lose tonight.

Texas at Texas Tech - Texas is in Dayton in my last bracket.  They need a win tonight or they drop out of the bracket to the First Four Out.

Wake Forest at Notre Dame - Wake can't have a let down and this would be a bad loss.

Now, let's get on to the top games on the board:

3.  Nevada at Colorado State - The Mountain West continues to thrive with solid games night in and night out.  Both teams really need this win to stay in the 7-8 seed line

2.  Kentucky at Mississippi State - I think I have Kentucky figured out.  Tonight, after scoring 117 against Alabama, they tighten up, shoot 38% and lose at Mississippi State 67-59.

1.  BYU at Kansas - Looks to be the best game of the night.  Kansas *should* handle BYU but BYU should be hungry after losing 2 of their last 3.
