Notes

BC

 76

VT was out of this one from the outset. They were manhandled on the boards and couldn't defend the three. The final game at Clem nearly becomes a must win while BC gets a bye against Wake

VT

 61

 

Alabama

 51

This game was tied at the half.  After that, the Tide probably saw their tournament hopes go up in flames.  Georgia visits Tuscaloosa on Saturday, but that may be too little, too late.

Florida

 78

 

Baylor

 60

Another anemic second half performance for a bubble team.  OK St outscored Baylor by 14 in the second to roll in Stillwater. Baylor desperately needs to upset vulnerable Texas on Saturday

OkSt

 71

 

Ohio St

 82

Ohio St is good, really good.  Penn St, well, the Lions are headed to the NIT.

Penn St

 61


The preview for tonight's jam packed schedule is after the jump.
