Things have Looked Better in South Bend: Wilson Chandler was a one-man wrecking crew for DePaul. Chandler had a season high 25 points, 11 rebounds and 3 blocks to help DePaul beat Notre Dame, 67-66. This was Notre Dame’s second hard loss to swallow this week; on Saturday, the Irish lost to South Florida 69-66.
I Guess They Won’t Be A Cinderella: Butler, ranked number 9 in the nation, put a smacking on Cleveland State, 92-50. I won’t pretend to really know anything about either of these teams, except Butler’s pretty good and Cleveland State’s pretty bad.
The Tigers Only Have Three Losses: Memphis beat UAB, 70-56, improving to 20-3, in a game that wasn’t even close. The Tigers held the Blazers to 31% shooting, caused 20 turnovers, and outrebounded UAB 50-37. I don’t know if anyone remembers, but one of those three losses Memphis has was to. . . you guessed it: Gerogia Tech.
