Virginia Tech gave a death blow to Miami's bubble chances with a solid beat-down. Miami is now 7-10 in conference and has concluded a disappointing season. Virginia Tech, on the other hand, has put themselves in good position if they can get a win against UNC tomorrow. If not, then VT looks eliminated as well.
Louisville beat Providence badly, all but assuring the Friars of an NIT berth. Louisville looks to capture the Big East title, which would all but assuredly give them a number one seed in the NCAA tournament.
Xavier took care of St. Louis. Xavier is going to make the NCAA tournament no matter what, so hopefully they will take care of the A-10 tournament and not let any extra bids sneak in.
The only game that went against the Terps from the early starts was Northwestern-Minnesota, a battle of two teams on the bubble. The day started with Minnesota on the right side, and Northwestern on the wrong side. After the win, Minnesota can now be considered a lock, while Northwestern's very slim chances have disappeared.
The next update will be before the Maryland game this evening, after the five noteworthy 2:30 and 3:00 games have transpired. If you happen to catch any, Iowa, St. Joseph's, BYU, Arizona State and Texas could all use your cheers.
