Top 25 talk

Greek Tragedy · January 16, 2008, 10:03:03 PM

POINT won at Stout and Eau Claire upset OSHKOSH.

Mr. Ypsi · January 16, 2008, 10:16:23 PM

Augie over Wheaton, 66-61.

Elmhurst falls to Carthage (livestats froze w/ 42 seconds left, Carthage up 77-65).

David - despite what the scoreboard indicated earlier (it has been fixed)... Guilford LOST to Roanoke tonight... 68-56.

One more to add to the carnage.

David Collinge · January 16, 2008, 11:12:11 PM

Thanks...I usually try to double-check the scoreboard (preferring two independent sources for scores, like a good journalist), but didn't tonight. $:-\$

Looks like Brandeis will have their hands full this weekend...hopefully they can make it through Friday first.

Does anyone smell any upsets this weekend?

I think the Tartans are going to come up with a HUGE win on Friday night.

If they do then I have a strong suspicion that Brandeis will have a strong bounce back game and hand Rochester its first loss of the season.

I know its on the front page but here is the link to the story on the front page headlines of ESPN.com http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/news/story?id=3201198

Puget Sound gets a little bit of love in the article! It's nice to get the Puget Sound name out there in the national setting!

#4 Mary Hardin-Baylor, which has been dancing on the knife's edge lately, is doing it again. They're behind 5-7 Hardin-Simmons at the half, either by a score of 41-30 (D3hoops.com scoreboard) or 41-28 (Gametracker).

Gametracker (i.e. LiveStats on steroids) can be accessed from HSU's website here.

If Puget Sound wins both of their games this weekend they should be knocking on the door of the top 5...that would be sweeeeeet!

#2 Brandeis 35, #24 Carnegie Mellon 20 at the half,

Brandeis is shooting 55% compared to the Tartans 28%.

#1 Rochester seems to be having an easy outing tonight, up 40-23 against the visiting Violets of NYU

David Collinge · January 18, 2008, 08:52:47 PM

Amherst leads Tufts 78-68 with 0:34 left...and the LiveStats has been stuck there for about 10 minutes.

Grrrrr...the Amherst game never goes final, and then the Williams game shows FINAL while it is still in progress...

NESCAC students are smart; so LiveStats must be hard to use.

HOW THEY FARED (week of Jan. 14-20)

#   24   Carnegie Mellon (10-3) lost to #2 Brandeis 60-48 and plays at NYU Sun.

CMU hosts NYU on Sunday. Thanks! Correction made...dc

Eight losses in the top 25 with one more to come when Rochester and Brandeis meet on Sunday.

LogShow · January 19, 2008, 01:04:49 PM

Brandeis and Rochester both took care of business...Sunday's game should be great! 8)
