Four Point Play College Basketball Review - Dec. 15

3 Most Important Results from Tonight

Auburn 52, South Florida 40 – Huge win for Auburn at home. Does it make the Tigers an at-large contender? No way. Will it even help the resume at the end of the season? Probably not. That said, it was a huge win for Auburn after being taken apart by Seton Hall in its last game.

Cincinnati 78, Wright St. 58 – Brawl recovery began for Cincinnati and part one was passed with flying colors, even on the road. Now the Bearcats need to string some wins together after an underwhelming non-conference performance thus far.

UNLV 65, UTEP 54 – The Rebels finally got back home and won with the needed home cookin'. Now, its off to Chicago for a rematch with Aillinois after getting clubbed in the first round of the NCAA Tournament last season.

Worst Loss from Tonight

Charleston 71, Tennessee 65 – Tennessee is not a good team under Cuozo Martin this season. That said, it still has the overall talent that it should be beating teams like College of Charletson. Shameful effort again.

3 Biggest Games of Tomorrow

Gonzaga vs Oral Roberts – Oral Roberts is 7-3 and will help Gonzaga in the RPI. Gonzaga has a chance for what will be an under appreciated quality win.

Murray St. vs Lipscomb – The Racers have won 10 straight games to start the year with a win over Memphis. Now we see how good they really are. Tomorrow, they must overcome the post big win syndrome where many teams win a huge a game and then lose to an inferior team.

Belmont vs Troy – For Belmont the season is simple. Win out to the conference tournament final and hope the committee shines upon you.
