1-0, need I say more?
A really, really busy night to kick off the season
B1G
#5 Ohio State 85 #10 Stanford 64 - 30 for Mitchell to pace the Buckeyes
#15 Maryland 91 Albany 58 - tied after 1st, Terps used 30-4 2nd quarter to settle it
#24 Michigan 75 George Mason 61 - Flaherty led the Wolverines with 29
Illinois 64 Indiana University Purdue University Fort Wayne 50 - Illini won TO battle 21-11
Iowa 83 Quinnipiac 67 - close until the 4th
Penn State 86 Siena 72 - not as close as it looks
Purdue 79 Central Michigan 69 - big 3rd quarter comeback for the Boilermakers
Northwestern 63 Chicago State 36 - first one of the year, and a good one, too
Other RU opponents
Temple 86 Delaware State 72 - not a very interesting blowout
Charlotte 75 Duquesne 72 - late 49er comeback failed
Wake Forest 73 Texas Southern 56 - Whitehead had 23 points for the Demon Deacons
#4 South Carolina 99 Alabama State 31 - no contest
St. John’s 73 St. Francis (Brooklyn) 49 - margin just kept growing the whole game
New Mexico 88 Western Michigan 76 - Lobos won on strong 1st and 4th quarters
#23 South Florida 61 LSU 55 - Jesperson had 20 and Laksa and 16 for the Bulls
California Davis 91 Washington State 71 1:37 4th - Cougars probably not so good
East Tennessee 87 Cincinnati 77 - Cincinnati probably not so good
NC State 64 Jacksonville 44 - ho hum
#7 Mississippi State 68 Virginia 53 - maybe better than you'd expect
Seton Hall 91 St. Peter's 49 - hard to tell much about the Pirates from this one
Fairleigh Dickinson 76 Rutgers Newark 40 - interesting to start with a D-III opponent
Princeton 72 George Washington 52 - hmm
4 of these teams will drop out of the list once the Gulf Coast Classic is over, but we won't know which ones they are until then.
Other ranked teams
#3 Baylor 121 Lamar 63 - honestly surprised Lamar scored that many points
#8 UCLA 84 San Jose State 45 6:26 3rd - think we can call this one

#11 Oregon 91 Cal State Northridge 43 - 29 TOs for Northridge
#13 West Virginia 102 Central Connecticut 52 - 30 for Muldrow to lead the 'Eers

#22 Oklahoma 96 Belmont 73 - Pierre-Louis led the Sooners with 24 and 12
Northern Colorado 94 #25 DePaul 88 - or maybe this was the first upset of the year
Also
Clemson 41 Kennesaw State 28 - teams shot a collective 24-109, 4-33 from 3
Virginia Tech 99 Wagner 32 - blowout of the night
Weber State 75 Utah Valley 57 - played near the location of the Golden Spike
Alcorn State 84 Southeast Louisiana 77 OT - 1st OT game of the year
La Salle 74 Lafayette 47 - Eastern Pennsylvania battle, but not Big 5
California Santa Barbara 96 Northern Arizona 93 - game of the day
Today and, of course, year to date:
B1G: 9-0
Other RU opponents: 11-5 with one game pending, but definitely decided (two RU opponents played B1G teams today)
