It was a pretty crazy night in college hoops, with a lot of near upsets. Kentucky escaped at home against Arkansas, TCU lost in triple overtime in Morgantown and Wisconsin lost in double overtime in Bloomington. TCU falls closer to the bubble with the loss, and they have a tough stretch to end their season- Texas Tech, Kansas State and at Texas. Two wins would be advisable but 1 will probably do the trick. Temple lost at Memphis and finishes the season with two coin flip games at Connecticut and vs. UCF. Given that we're likely to have a lot of bid stealers, Temple might need to win both. 

The biggest news was in Blacksburg, where Duke fell to Virginia Tech. I've moved Virginia up to the #1 overall seed as a result, and Virginia Tech up to the 4 line. Duke is still going to be penalized for any losses without Zion, not as much as they would be if he was playing, but they won't just disappear from the team sheet.
