Saturday's CuseAdelphia Game of Interests and Daily RPI report

I discovered there is a real time site that does both men's and women's college basketball. So from now on you'll get a nightly an RPI report for both Jimmy B's and Coach Q's teams.

Jimmy B's squad's RPI: 12th
Surprise team ahead of them: Mississippi at 11th. People knew Mississippi would be good, but undefeated good heading into conference play? All they have is one game against win less Alabama A&M between an undefeated non conference schedule. Wins against Clemson and South Alabama highlight their schedule.
Surprise team way behind them: Florida at 123rd. The two time reigning champs have only played two games against a team with some meat and they lost both to Florida State and Ohio State. There best win? Home against Temple. That's a great resume there they are building in Gainsville.

Coach Q's squad's RPI: 24th. That's right. I said 24th. Impressive eh?
Surprise team ahead of them: North Carolina at 21. It's not that the Tar Hells are ahead of them, its the fact that this top five team is only 21st.
Surprise team way behind them: Arkansas at 89. The Razorbacks are undefeated but only 89th in the RPI. Why? No games yet against RPI top 100 teams. Yikes. They are the lowest rated undefeated team.

Games of Interest:
NCAAB:
Ohio State 92, UMBC 83. Ohio State continues to win, making Syracuse's loss not look to bad.

Georgetown 78, American 51. Georgetown continues its joke of a schedule against American.

Marquette 77, Savannah State 37. See Georgetown with a slightly tougher schedule.

Washington 73, LSU 65. Syracuse's win against Washington looks better every time the Huskies score another win.

Louisville 67, Iona 36. Louisville finally starting to get things going after a slow start.

Virginia Tech 54, St. John's 48. Yuck. St. John's losing to probably the ACC's worst team and scoring only 48 points while doing it.

Depaul 70, Detroit 64. Depaul wins! Depaul wins! They are bad, you might here that once, maybe twice in Big East play.

Oklahoma 88, West Virginia 82. (Double OT) The Mountaineers fall at home. They were the number one team rating wise team using Ken Pomeroy's statistics. Sometimes his stats do lie (not often though), they didn't take in the fact that they've also played nobody this year.

(25) Rhode Island 85, Georgia Southern 80. Nice win for the Rams, again helps Syracuse. Georgia Southern is a pretty decent team from the Southern Conference.

South Florida 87, Winston-Salem 48. The Bulls are looking half decent behind Kentrell Gransberry. In an 18 game Big East Schedule 8 or 9 wins for this team wouldn't surprise me.

Notre Dame 87, Brown 54. Fighting Irish 9-2, again they haven't really played anyone. Two of their three truly losable games, they've lost.

Villanova 71, La Salle 58. See almost every other Big East team under strength of schedule.

Pitt is losing by 20 right now to Dayton. Cincy in progress against Miami OH.

NBA:
Toronto, New Jersey, and Boston in progress. Their scores up later.

NHL:
Islanders 5, Devils 2. Flyers move to within five points of Devils.

Rangers 6, Maple Leafs 1. Rangers are now two points ahead of the Flyers in the division.
