Gardner-Webb's Causing Trouble Again ...


Thanks to Blake Griffin's 35 points and 21 rebounds, Oklahoma barely squeaked out an 80-76 win against Gardner-Webb today. I have a feeling there will be lots of posts about big Griffin outputs.

Elsewhere
-- I would've said this regardless of URI's performance at Duke, but the Runnin' Rams take on ... the Runnin' Rams ... of VCU today. It's closing in on the final buzzer. Been a good one so far.

-- Other goodies still left: Clemson at Charlotte, UW-Milwaukee at Marquette (always a good one) and Oregon State at Nevada.

-- Boy, Mercer is tough. Georgia Tech had some trouble with the Bears. Mercer led, 58-40, with 12 minutes left before the Jackets came storming back to win in OT. How's that for an encore?

-- Rick Majerus and company got a nice win against Boston College today.

-- Providence has two wins in a row now after a devastating loss to Northeastern to start the season.

-- DeJuan Blair had 20 points and 16 rebounds ... at halftime ... in Pitt's 86-60 victory against Indiana (Pa.). Big Fella Blair finished with 27 and 19, and he was 13 of 14 from the floor. Nasty.

-- And Bryant has its first win as a Division I program, a 59-50 thriller against Quinnipiac.
