Final Score- Vanderbilt 93, Auburn 82
> Live on-location in Atlanta, GA at the SEC Tournament
Vanderbilt can shoot, and they can shoot it well. The Commodores went 33 of 49 from the field today for a 67 percent field goal rating. They also went 9 of 18 from 3 point land, along with shooting 78 percent from the foul line, 18-23. They used one of the best 1-2 punches in the land behind A.J. Ogilvy and Shan Foster. Ogilvy was a near perfect on the day, going 12 of 13 from the field to lead Vanderbilt with 27 points. Foster went 9 of 14 from the field, along with 6 of 9 from 3 point range. He had 26 points.
Though Vanderbilt may have looked impressive, winning by only 11 over a terrible Auburn team is nothing to brag about. Up next, they have Arkansas in round two of the SEC Tournament.
A quick look at scores from around the nation:
Miami (FL) took care of business to solidify themselves in the NCAA Tournament with a 63-50 win over N.C. State. The Hurricanes get Virginia Tech, another team on the bubble, tomorrow.
BYU beat Colorado State handily, 89-62 to keep them in the 6-8 seed range. The Cougars will face the winner of the San Diego State- Air Force game tomorrow.
St. Joseph's is trying to work their way off the bubble and into the field, and they helped themselves today. They beat Richmond 61-47, and will play Xavier tomorrow in the Atlantic Ten semifinals.
USC destroyed what may have been Arizona State's last gasp at a NCAA Tournament birth, as they beat the Sun Devils 59-55 this afternoon. USC gets the UCLA-Cal winner tomorrow, while Arizona State falls to the bottom of the bubble and must wait until Sunday to see if they are in or out.
A few pretty big upsets today:
West Virginia took down Connecticut, 78-72. The Mountaineers fall into the 6-8 seed range after the win, while UConn falls to somewhere around a 5-6 range. West Virginia will play Georgetown tomorrow in the Big East semis.
The worst team in the Big XII, Colorado State upset Baylor, 91-84 in double overtime. The Bears, who were just into the field coming into today, are now back on the bubble after the embarrassing loss. Colorado will get Oklahoma tomorrow in the 4-12 matchup.
Thats all for this session. I'm off the food court, and will be back in an hour and a half to give you a preview for tonight!
