RPI WATCH: 1/21/2010

Hey, whaddaya know? All three Big 12 home teams won. Shocking!

Cheers for:

• The Baylor Bears, for not getting embarrassed and for sending the Jayhawks into a tizzy over their stupid video crap.
  
• The Dayton Flyers, who bounced back nicely from that tough loss at Xavier.
  
• The Mississippi Rebels, who got back to .500 in SEC play.
• The Oklahoma St. Cowboys, for protecting the home court in what could have been a tough game.
• The Texas Tech Red Raiders, for netting their first Big 12 road win.
  
• The UNLV Runnin' Rebels, who also bounced back nicely from an ugly loss to Utah.

Jeers for:

• The Iowa St. Cyclones, for losing to a winless-in-the-Big 12 Texas Tech team that isn't very good, with an assist to Lucca Staiger for being a total dick.
• The Kansas Jayhawks — you know why.
  
• The Xavier Musketeers, for falling to what looked like a pretty crappy Temple team against KU.
