Hoops HD Daily Rundown – Friday, Jan 9th

After a couple of days that were absolutely slammed with big games, very little happened yesterday in terms of games that will likely impact the bubble and board.

-Santa Clara hung with Gonzaga for about 25 minutes before the Zags got control and went on to win 89-77.

-Hofstra remains unbeaten in CAA play and has two nice ACC road wins on top of that. They took down Towson on the road yesterday 78-67

-Lipscomb, who we thought was the top team in the ASun, fell on the road at Stetson 91-83 in a game that was a bit of a surprise.

-Vermont was much more fortunate to escape an upset bid at home against Binghamton. The Catamounts trailed by as much as 6 late in the second half before denying Binghamton a pair of shots in the closing seconds and ended up winning by a single point.

-UT Martin came from behind to beat Morehead State on the road, and is once again looking like one of the top teams in the OVC.

-Seattle U, after playing both Gonzaga and Saint Mary’s very tough in back to back games on the road, did not look tough yesterday. They fell 68-55 to Oregon State.

-UC Irvine won the first leg of the Black and Blue Rivalry as they knocked off Long Beach State 74-64 to remain unbeaten in Big West play.

-MIAMI OH AT TOLEDO (MAC). This will be a tough road test for Miami. It’s a game they should win, but it’s also one of the tougher games they’ve had to play up to this point. Can they stay unbeaten?

-USC @ Minnesota (Big Ten) – USC has hit a bit of a skid and could really use this road win to help get things turned back around.
