Morning all,
I went 2/4 on games last night so lets review with links:
49ers upset Matadors with a 31-4 final run
While I predicted it would be close, but Northridge would pull it out, Long Beach did their job and held the Matadors to under 60 points in a shocking come from behind victory. This was not just one person scoring everything though, the 49ers manages to spread the points fairly evenly.
Pacific ousts Davis, 59-51
There goes my prediction of Davis winning it all. The Tigers outclassed the Aggies in every way, and one could predict the game was over when Pacific was up 23-7 in the first half. Next up: Pacific vs Cal Poly
Gauchos upset Anteaters, 61-51
I'm glad I predicted one upset in this tournament. UCSB kept UCI's star player, Kassandra McCalister, quiet with only 5 points and 4 turnovers en-route to a convincing win. The 6 seed Gauchos vs 7 seed 49ers should be a very interesting matchup on Friday.
Santiago scores 31 as Mustangs dominate Fullerton
This game wasn't even close, and with the way Santiago is playing, Cal Poly might be dominant enough to go to the Big Dance.
An interesting preview of the Big West tourney by CBSSports
H/T to Jeremy Mauss of the Mountain West Connection and The Skip Shot for bringing this article to my attention. The article itself points out a couple really good things, but I still disagree that the 49ers wouldn't be a lock if they didn't win the conference tourney.
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Oh wait, you're serious? Chris Dufresne may have just become my favorite columnest ever...
Dufresne points out that "Southland's" (A.K.A. Southern California) only NCAA tourney participant will probably be from the Big West, suggesting that Big West wins the drama factor this weekend with LBSU and Fullerton both fighting for a potential 1-bid spot.
