Indiana is screwed. The Sampson mess, the Butch three- not a good day for the Hoosiers. I've thought they were a little overrated for a few weeks now- they're now 9-2 in the B10, but they could easily be 7-4 or even 6-5. But now, if they lose to MSU and Purdue at home in the next week (both at home), it'll all be blamed on the coach. Not that that situation doesn't have any effect, but it's probably not the whole story.UConn is incredible- tonight makes eight in a row (gotta love Thabeet's line of 4pts, 10 boards, 6 blocks). They were a 4 in Bracketology this week- they may even get bumped up a line on Monday. Their last seven BE games really aren't that tough- they play at USF, Villanova, and Providence, and host West Virginia, but will likely be favored in every game the rest of the way.
Louisville should certainly be higher (although I'm closer than some). It's always tough to know what to do with teams that were missing key players early in the season. Despite having one more loss than Georgetown, they've been the best Big East team in conference games. They have a much more difficult schedule than the Huskies, with games @Pitt & Georgetown, and home games against Notre Dame and Syracuse.
Drake lost in Carbondale tonight, but I won't drop them that far next week. You are allowed to lose once every couple months, I think.
