The Skinny: Cincinnati and Marquette log Saturday's most significant wins. Expect both to be in the next "Field of 65" projection. Winner of Gophers-Northwestern game stays in the mix (though still with a ton of work to do), the loser goes off my at-large board. ... Louisville's resume lacks a signature win. Winning @ Syracuse today would take care of that.

Louisville beat Syracuse about an hour ago

Thanks! I'm a little slow posting the watch today.

Huge win for Louisville. That's how it's done if you're a bubble team. ... beat a top-shelf opponent in mid-February, even more impressive if it's done on the road.

The fact that minnesota is anywhere near an at large bid at this point is surprising if not outright hilarious
