Arizona overcame a sluggish first half to defeat Utah State. Ditto for Wake Forest against Chattanooga. In a tremendous game, Nevada beat Texas. Daniel Gibson's ill-advised three pointer with under a minute left cost the Longhorns a valuable opportunity. Though Gibson on the next possession made a greater interior pass, it was too little, too late.

Finally, a one-dimensional Gonzaga squad (read: Adam Morrison) held on to beat Winthrop. Folks who last saw Ronny Turiaf play early in the year were gravely disappointed by his lack of quickness and agility. Unless his body fully recovers, I don't expect to see Ronny in the NBA next year.
