Once again, BYU was involved in a ridiculous comeback in Dayton. One problem.

Last Night:

Oh, man, that was fun. Hampton and Manhattan played a game which was just plain entertaining. Then, the Principle of Regression to the Norm struck Brigham Young, as they experienced what they themselves had done to Iona three years ago. Alabama showed that apparently the one thing they needed this year was for Anthony Grant to be gone. The MEAC almost scored a second win on the night before falling to Miami, and William & Mary and Tulsa played a tight one, too.

In the CIT, Oakland's Khalil Felder went off for 37, but the Golden Grizzlies still lost, giving Eastern Illinois their first post-season win since moving to Division I decades ago. Both Bowling Green and South Carolina-Upstate survived thrillers to advance. Both Eastern Kentucky and Norfolk State had a pair of players with 20 points and each also had four players in double figures, but the Colonels had the two guys with 22, and the Spartans only got six points combined from the five guys who didn't reach double figures.

And then there was the bizarre incident during the Murray State-UTEP game. No, not on the court. On UTEP's Twitter account.

The postseason is in full swing, y'all.

Tonight:

Everything that happened last night is happening tonight, with a massive slate of games on the undercards. But in the main event, we get the mighty Ospreys and we get Dayton playing a home game. The interesting CIT game of the night? The only Southland team to beat Stephen F. Austin travels to Dunk City. That should be a fun one. Your men's schedule for tonight:
