Western Michigan 81 Bowling Green 67 - 5 losses in a row for the Falcons


Other ranked teams

Also

Virginia Tech 90 North Carolina 74 - hard to imagine this score any other year*

*Heck, kind of hard to imagine it even this year.

As to the "hard to imagine" - maybe, but fun.

Add a late game - Wyoming 64, Utah State 46. I wouldn't have noticed except that I track Utah State - an Arizona opponent. As an aside, Arizona's OOC teams include a few of the most awful out there. Including Iona that just recently won their 1st game.
