Well, all the college basketball teams that were supposed to win won last night. Kansas ended their road skid with a win at Iowa State, while Memphis ended their one-game losing streak by dispatching Tulsa. Duke won. In Cameron. Big surprise. To celebrate last night’s normality, here’s a video of some […]

The University of Tennessee garnered its first ever number one ranking Monday afternoon after beating Memphis last Saturday. But how long would the Vols hold on to this newly acquired top spot? Thanks to the Vanderbilt Commodores, not very long at all.

Led by Justin Dentmon’s 20 points, the Washington Huskies snapped a 4-game losing streak (including 3-in-a-row at home) by beating the 4th ranked UCLA Bruins by the score of 71-61. In the loss, UCLA was a horrid 1-16 from the 3-point line, a stat that will kill even the most talented team.
