Figure Tech will jump up a bit after they play Duke.

Still, yikes.

Buffalo should stay unbeaten, up 10 late at the Dome

I had Buffalo's first loss pegged at SU, but UB keeps churning. Next up is at Marquette. If Buffalo could go 2-0 in those road games, they're gonna rise even further in the rankings.

Syracuse now has back-to-back home losses in non-conference games for the first time since 1975.

 

[cyclones500]

Furman is off the list. Buffalo status pending, down at Marquette in 2nd half.

One unusual fact about five remaining unbeaten teams

 

[NATEizKING]

St John's lost to Seton Hall Saturday

 

[ClonesFTW]

Nevada could very well make it to the tournament undefeated.

 

[cyclones500]

Thru Dec 30 -- 4 teams left
American Houston
ACC Virginia
Big Ten Michigan
Mountain West Nevada

 

[cyclones500]

Nevada could very well make it to the tournament undefeated.

Shouldn't get a ton of resistance in MWC, which doesn't seem too strong this season. Utah State or Fresno might be able to trip 'em up.

 

[cyclones500]

Thru Jan. 5 -- 3 teams left.

American Houston
ACC Virginia
Big Ten Michigan

Next up for each team
Houston: Today, vs. Memphis
Michigan: Today, vs. Indiana
Virginia: Wednesday, at Boston College

 

[cyclones500]

And then there were two ... Houston is off the list.

ACC Virginia
Big Ten Michigan

 

[cyclones500]

U-M is off the list, lost at UW.

Virginia plays at Duke later today. It's possible nobody is unbeaten at the end of the day.
