Once again, this is going to be a bit brief as one blogger can only take so much. Here are the scores you need to know about, and what (if anything) you need to know:
- Tennessee 91, UT-Martin 64 - Bobby Maze has been very good so far for the Vols, averaging 8 ppg and 8.5 apg with just 3 t/o's on the year in a 2-0 start.
- Purdue 78, Loyola 46
- Texas 76, Tulane 51
- Wisconsin 88, SIU Edwardsville 58
- USC 73, New Mexico St. 60 - Taj Gibson had 22 and 10, both career highs, but USC needed a late spurt to put away a tough NMSU team.
- Gonzaga 80, Idaho 46
- Kansas 85, Florida Gulf Coast 45
- UNC 77, Kentucky 58 - UNC jumped all over Kentucky early, racing out to a 25-6 lead. UNC's defense looked very tough, especially early, although a lot of that was the inexperience in the Kentucky back court. The Wildcats really need someone to emerge as a reliable ball handler against pressure - they have 53 turnovers through two games. UNC's front line behind Hansbrough has looked great in their three games. Tonight, Deon Thompson had 20 and 9 and Ed Davis added 9 and 10.
- Oklahoma 82, Davidson 78 - Steph Curry had 44 and Blake Griffin had 25 and 21. For more, go to the live-blog transcript here.
- Indiana 60, IUPUI 57 - Indiana is now 2-0. Tom Pritchard (who the..?) had 19 and 10.
- Syracuse 76, Richmond 71; Baylor 90, Centenary 55 - Read the live-blog.
- San Diego 65, Nevada 51 - I have a feeling this game could carry weight on the bubble. Rob Jones had 23 for San Diego, who held Luke Babbitt to 3.
- Washington 78, Cleveland State 63 - Jon Brockman had 23 and 13 as the Huskies picked up a win against a good CSU team.
- UAB 72, Arizona 71 - Crazy ending. Arizona was down 47-33 early in the second half and nine with 5:00 to go, but came all the way back to tie it on a Josh Fogg putback with 25 seconds left. Zona got the ball back, but Jamelle Horne committed an intentional foul with .8 seconds on the clock. Paul Delaney hit 1 of 2 free throws to win the game. Horne didn't realize how little time was left and thought Delaney had an easy lay-up that would have won it. Budinger had 27 for Arizona, Hill had 13 points and 22 boards, while Vaden led the Blazers with 20.
- Arizona State 59, SDSU 52 - The Sun Devils were down 15-2 early but came backk to win behind 18 points (but 6 turnovers) from James Harden.
- JP Primm, UNC-Asheville - The freshman had 21, 7, and 7 in his debut, which just so happened to be on national TV.
- Tyrese Rice, BC - Rice had 28, 9 dimes, and 5 boards as he led the Eagles to a win over St. John's and a trip to the Garden for the Pre-season NIT Final Four.
- DeAndre Hall, Texas Southern - Hall had 29 points in a loss to Cincinnati.
- Alex Barnett, Dartmouth - Barnett had 28, but Providence bounced back from a loss to Northeastern with a 100-82 win.
- Greivis Vazquez, Maryland - Vazquez had 28, 8 boards, 4 dimes, and 4 steals in a win against Youngstown State.
- David Huertas, Mississippi - Huertas had 27 in a win against South Alabama, including 7 3's.
- Mike DiNunno and Darion Anderson, Northern Illinois - DiNunno had 27, 4, 4, 3 steals and hit 6 3's while Anderson went for 27, 8 boards, 4 dimes and he hit 4 3's as NIU beat Indiana State.
- Kenny Dawkins, Lamar - Dawkins had 29, 6 and 5 assists in a Lamar win.
- Randy Culpepper, UTEP - Culpepper had 35 in a UTEP win.

Way to give some dap to Rob Jones at San Diego. The man is a beast, and he's getting older and more mature, not to mention bigger. He could be a big reason The Toreros make it back to the tournament for a second straight year.
And Blake Griffin looks like Tito Ortiz with brown hair.
