A mixed bag on Wednesday, with San Diego State & Baylor losing being the most significant results. Utah now very near lock status, as the Utes prevented on-the-bubble San Diego State from earning a season sweep. Baylor has lost 6 straight, and the remaining schedule isn't favorable. Sayanora Bears.

Wednesday's Good
1. Utah over San Diego State
2. Oklahoma over Baylor
3. Purdue over Penn State
4. UConn over Syracuse
5. Memphis over Tulsa
6. Bowling Green over Toledo
7. High Point over Winthrop

Wednesday's Bad
1. BYU over Colorado State
2. Cincinnati over St. John's
3. Wisconsin over Iowa
4. LSU over Mississippi State
5. Kansas State over Texas Tech
6. Dayton over Xavier
7. Virginia Tech over Georgia Tech
8. Tennessee over Georgia
9. Rhode Island over St. Bonaventure
10. Towson over Georgia State

Gopher Fans' Thursday Wish List (in order of importance)
1. Saint Joseph's over Temple (Owls one of my first 4 out)
2. Louisville over Notre Dame (keep rollin', 'Ville)
3. Arizona over USC (Men of Troy need it more than Wildcats)
4. Gonzaga over St. Mary's (keep the Gaels' ship sinking without Mills)
5. Illinois over Northwestern (though if NW wins it improves Gophs' chances for top-5 finish)
6. Wofford over Davidson (Steph Curry's squad not a lock if they don't win SoCon tourney)
7. Idaho over Utah State (despite only 1 loss and a ranking, Aggies can't afford to slip up)
8. North Dakota State over UMKC (Bison's RPI has shrunk to #92, which is good for Gophers)
9. UCLA over Arizona State (Sun Devils in good shape but haven't reached lock status)
10. Eastern Washington over Weber State (every little bit helps)
11. South Dakota State over Southern Utah (every little bit helps)

Friday Wish List
1. Cornell over Harvard (Big Red still has chance to finish in RPI top 100)

Saturday Wish List
1. Gophers over Penn State (Gophs have been solid, 5-3, away from home)
2. Ohio State over Wisconsin (Badgers one of my last 4 in)
3. Colorado State over UNLV (Rebs one of my last 4 in)
4. Syracuse over Georgetown (Hoyas one of my last 4 in)
5. TCU over BYU (Cougars one of my last 4 in)
6. Pitt over Cincinnati (Bearcats one of my first 4 out)
7. Iowa State over Oklahoma State (Cowboys one of my first 4 out)
8. Wyoming over San Diego State (Aztecs one of my first 4 out)
9. Arkansas over Kentucky (UK could be an interesting case study for Selection Committee)
10. Kansas over Kansas State (Wildcats have won 6 straight)
11. UCLA over Arizona (could be the signature win U of A needs to solidify a bid)
12. Baylor over Texas A&M (Bears pretty much toast but Aggies not out of it)
13. Boise State over Utah State (I'm smellin' Aggies' first WAC loss)
14. Portland over St. Mary's (loss would finish off any chance Gaels have for at-large bid)
15. Iowa over Purdue (Gophers could move ahead of Boilers in Big 10 standings)
16. Furman over Davidson (not gonna' happen)
17. Cal over Stanford (Oski beating The Tree would pretty much bury the Cardinal)
18. Vanderbilt over Tennessee (home loss to Vandy would be damaging for Vols)
19. Mizzou over Nebraska (plucky Huskers sit on bubble's lunatic fringe)
20. Alabama over South Carolina (Gamecocks in good shape but not a lock)
21. Maryland over Virginia Tech (Hokies in good shape but not a lock)
22. Saint Louis over Rhode Island (URI tryin' to "ram" its way onto the bubble)
23. Rutgers over Providence (Friars a longshot for at-large bid)
24. Cornell over Dartmouth (Gophs want Big Red to win Ivy League)
25. North Dakota State over Southern Utah (every little bit helps)
26. Eastern Washington over Idaho State (every little bit helps)
27. South Dakota State over UMKC (every little bit helps)
28. Southeastern Louisiana over Nicholls State (every little bit helps)
29. High Point over Gardner-Webb (every little bit helps)

Sunday Wish List
1. Northwestern over Michigan (UM could be Selection Committee's most challenging decision)
2. North Carolina over Miami-Florida (Hurricanes are very close to the bubble)
3. Arizona State over USC (Trojans' resume isn't really all that great)
4. Duquesne over Temple (Owls have a chance to be A-10's third bid)
5. Duke over Boston College (a BC win pretty much makes the Eagles a lock)
6. Louisville over DePaul (me thinks we can chalk this one up)
