Muslim-Hindu punk rock bands
10 PM, temp 19, wind 20 mph WNW. The same yet not as painful as earlier this week, go figure.

Florida 51, Cincinnati 23. Did anyone expect the Bearcats to beat the Gators? I didn't even before Coach Kelly left for Notre Dame. But with an interim coach, himself on the way out the door, & a coaching staff needing to get it over with so they could print out some resumes, Cincie had nothing left in the tank except individual talent & empty bravado. Florida was still a team with Tim Tebow. Pitt would've put up a better fight, & lost, too.
Penn State 19, LSU 17. Despite the Nittany Lions' propensity for losing to teams they need to beat to stay in BCS contention, they can win big games. The field conditions for this one were abysmal. Anyway, I never feel sorry for SEC schools.

DePaul 57, Rutgers 60
After Wednesday's humiliating loss at George Washington before an announced crowd of 801, I was ready to pronounce Rutgers a bunch of hopeless underachievers. Every player on the team arrived with hype. Well, here's their second quality win. This result:
Connecticut 91, Seton Hall 25
played at The Pru Center in Newark was downright shocking. Even Iona managed 35 against the Huskies at Storrs. Uconn is so good that Stanford was drubbed by them & stayed no. 2 in the AP Poll.
Texas St. 5 13 18 Final
(5) Baylor 47 52 99
The NCAA ought to be asking some schools (maybe even whole conferences) to justify why they are Div. 1 rather than adding more every season.
