Thursday Is a Blizzard of Notes

 Not really; it is snowing outside somewhat heavy.  Anyway....

Big Winners last night include Clemson, Kentucky, Texas A&M, and Boise State as it pertains to the Bubble.  These 4 teams were either just out or one of the last 5-6 in.  They all got wins which helps their case.

On the opposite side Arkansas, Mississippi State, and Virginia Tech all took losses.  Seems like Miss St is a candidate to drop out of tomorrow's bracket.

Outside the bubble we had two awesome games in Alabama-Tennessee and Xavier-Marquette.  Tennessee continues to be Jeckyl and Hyde and beat 1 seeded Alabama.  I still think Tennessee is ripe for a 14 over 3 upset in March but this was a big win.  Marquette beat the buzzer and thus beat Xavier.  Now up top by themselves in the Big East the game versus Creighton looms large.  For now Marquette looks like a team nobody is going to want come opening weekend.

Lots of games tonight but not a lot of Bubble games.  Tomorrow, a new bracket.
