Holy mother of god we had a NIGHT in college basketball.
The 9 p.m. window was absolutely bonkers, with multiple double overtime games, and so much more, but here are the highlights.
Yea that happened.
This too.
Anyway, we also have an America East bracket, as Bryant won the regular season league title with a win over UNH.
In conference tournament action last night, Lafayette and Loyola MD SURVIVED at home in the Patriot League, while all three Horizon League home teams won. Yes, that does mean that year one of the Doug Gottlieb era at Green Bay is over, following a blowout loss to Oakland. The Phoenix - who were, to be fair, completely ravaged by injuries - finished 4-28.
The Stairway to Seven started in the Sun Belt, with Coastal Carolina and Louisiana pulling out wins in Pensacola. Those two play tonight once again, against Georgia Southern and Old Dominion respectively. SIX MORE TO GO!
Summit, NEC, Big South, and OVC Tournaments also start tonight, and there should be some interesting matchups in there. Especially in the NEC with Stonehill/FDU in a 4/5 matchup, and SFU/Wagner in a 3/6 matchup.
Not as much bubble action as last night, and no new bracketology. I'll have that tomorrow.
