Bubblicious Tuesday: Seminoles fading to black

[SelectionSunday]

Only 23 games nationally Tuesday, but there are a lot of bubble games on tap, including one head-to-header (GW @ Richmond) of interest to Gopher fans. Let's see if the Spiders can make it 4-0 without leading scorer Cedrick Lindsay. GW easily is Richmond's most difficult assignment since Lindsay went down with a season-ending injury.

Tuesday Bubblers
#37 George Washington @ #40 Richmond, 6 p.m. (NBCSN)
#51 NC State @ Clemson, 6 p.m. (ESPNU)
Villanova @ #57 Providence, 6 p.m. (FS1)
Kentucky @ #70 Ole Miss, 6 p.m. (ESPN)
Butler @ #53 Saint John's, 8 p.m. (FS1)
Georgia @ #54 Tennessee, 8 p.m. (ESPNU)
#62 Boise State @ Colorado State, 8 p.m.

Monday Bubbler Results
#49 Baylor 70, #50 Oklahoma State 64 (Cowpokes 7th straight loss, but my $$$ says they'll still find a way to make tourney)
North Carolina 81, #66 Florida State 75 (we can pretty much put a fork in the Seminoles)

At one point last night I looked at the FSU-UNC score and I swear it was FSU 20, UNC 6. I guess I shouldn't be too surprised that FSU is struggling, I wasn't too impressed with them when they came to the barn.

Yeah, FSU looked great getting off the bus, but it was all down hill after warm ups. But the do make the All Adonis Team!

When I turned it on, FSU was up 21-6, and I'm "well this is good, FSU is going to be NC and this will help us some." It was all downhill from there.

Espn Bubble report
Minnesota [17-9 (6-7), RPI: 33, SOS: 4] The RPI utterly loves Minnesota's schedule, and it's not just because of the Big Ten. The computer also grades the Gophers' nonconference slate as among the 25 best in the country. Like Ohio State, the Gophers have a good deal of bubble wiggle room at their respective level: Compare Minnesota's profile to any of the teams along the bubble, note the distinct differences, move along. Minnesota is nowhere near a lock, or even SBI. But they're in better shape than some.

Tough loss for Richmond tonight. Looks like it went down to the last 2 minutes before GW made their clinching FTs.

Pretty impressive that we beat Richmond without Mo Walker, on the road, when they were at full strength. Hope the selection committee remembers that.
