RPI WATCH: 12/07/2009

It was a fairly quiet Sunday, all things considered.

Kansas beat UCLA, although not as bad as they should have, and Oklahoma whooped struggling Arizona to drive the Big 12 to a commanding 8-2 lead in the Hardwood Series. Pac-10, thou art our bitch for the year.

Meanwhile, Nebraska did their level best to squander all that conference good feeling not just by nearly ejecting Texas from the BCS National Championship, but also by losing to freakin' Creighton again. Maybe USC just sucked...

And Boston took the first step toward salvaging its woeful RPI by knocking off everyone's favorite orange surrogate, Bucknell.

Numbers are after the jump.
