PPD Standings after 2/12/09 Games

NOTES

• Illinois beats NU by 1 in last 3 seconds and despite trailing for most of game. And, Louisville gets a 33-point smackdown by Notre Dame
• Those two games accounted for 12 of the 17 losses tonight
• Only three wins for the night -- a .150 winning percentage. That breaks our string of three winning nights.
• Over half of the "Steady Selectors" (10 of the 16) are at or above 0.500. That's pretty good. Then there's the rest of us.

Some barnburners on the slate, it must be Friday. I hate to stray from the Ivy League, but this looks like a name the score special.

It woulda had to have been +34 for it to any good -- LOL! I think a lot of folks would have jumped on that for some reason or another.

But I did go back and check to see if Illinois wasn't really a "pick 'em." No such luck.
