Note: This is a belated update covering the week's happenings that probably should have been published Saturday, but I was swamped with other things. Games from the weekend will be summarized Monday.
Once again, very few wins this week from our non-conference opponents.
The bright spots were Charleston Southern, which improved to 10-6 in conference play, and West Virginia, which gained a measure of vengeance for a heartbreaking loss to Pittsburgh on the Panthers' home court.
Attaboy, Huggs.
You know the drill: Everyone else lost. Our RPI continued to decline.
Thus, as we will see tomorrow, the Baylor win was every bit as huge as people say.
