Colorado College is out of conference at home tonight against U of Dallas - I like CC to win by 4

Oglethorpe will bounce back tonight winning by 15 over Rhodes in Atlanta

Millsaps gives Trinity a fight, but loses by 5 down the stretch at home

Hendrix beats Southwestern by 11 on the homecourt

TU is in trouble tonite!  Southwestern may spoil Millsaps' party by upsetting Hendrix.

The picture in the South region changed with the Millsaps win over Trinity tonight. Watched some of the game on the web, and the Tigers simply allowed Millsaps to build too large a lead. Trinity doesn't have the firepower to make up large deficits quickly. Of course they did a commendable job at Centre 2 weeks ago, but Centre didn't play smart down the stretch. Majors played well late in the game and hit most of their free throws. Congratulations to the Millsaps squad on a great win. Hendrix was up 3 with a few seconds to play. Trinity will have another toughy on the road tomorrow night in Conway.

OT in Conway - I love the way the lower tier teams are playing tonight.

The beat goes on for the 4th seed in the SCAC West - Southwestern pulls out a big road OT win 75-68. Didn't see that one coming either.

With Trinity's loss last night, attention now focuses to the DePauw-Centre game at Danville this afternoon. DPU is in an enviable position today of making it a clean sweep of the ranked SCAC teams if it can capture a win today, having beaten both Centre and Trinity at Greencastle earlier. Should the Tigers win, this probably catapults them by Trinity in the overall rankings for the coming week and positions them well to become the #1 seed in the SCAC tournament. On the other hand, the Colonels could gain from a victory, too. They have yet to beat a ranked opponent (top 25) team this season. A win sets them up more favorably for seeding in the tournament. The point is there is plenty of incentive for both teams to get a victory today.
I have said it before that DePauw is playing their best ball right now. Centre and Trinity have each slipped a bit. The Colonels have not played well of late, and they will need a peak performance to beat DPU. Mike Moore will get his points today. The key for Centre will be to shut down the other DePauw options and rebound the basketball better than in recent games. Look for this one to be competitive and close. If DePauw has its offense clicking, the game could get out of hand, but I expect both teams will be ready and a one-sided affair is unlikely. I am hoping the Colonels' defense will outshine the Tiger's offense today.

Well, Centre's going to win today, and do so pretty spectacularly.  It was 19-0 early,  50-14 at half, and at last check, it was 62-27.

50-14 at the half?  I didn't believe it until Wes confirmed it.

Appreciate the update Wes.  For some reason, can't pick up the broadcast on DPU radio via the web.  I certainly wouldn't have predicted this kind of game between these rivals.  I have seen Centre play 3 games over the past 3 weeks, and they have not been playing well.  Perhaps this is their breakout game for the season, and DePauw is the whipping post for this one!

For anyone interested, the Oglethorpe/Rhodes game last night was video streamed live using four camera angles with pre-game show, play by play, color commentary, graphics, etc.  The game has been archived and can be watched by going to http://scoreatl.playonsports.com/?eventId=5279  Thanks goes to Rhodes College and the SCAC office for supporting this endeavor.

Doing it against your travel partner (and am I correct in assuming that DPU and Centre are fiercest rivals?) is always good for team chemistry.
