Wow. Wow. Wow. Yes, Hawaii has been on the road for some time but that doesn't necessarily account for defensive slackness as New Mexico State pounded UH 115-73 in quite the edgy contest. Freshman guard/wing Daniel Mullings simply exploded on the Rainbow Warriors, posting 28 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists. It was 52-31 after 20 minutes and NMSU shot an amazing 60% for the game.

Seattle was ahead 33-32 at the half in Fresno. But the Bulldogs pulled ahead and owned a short lead for much of the latter 20 minutes and won 78-72 behind 43 points from sophomore backcourter Kevin Olekaibe. It was actually a strange shooting night for Fresno State's top scorer, going 12-25 overall, just 5-15 from long distance but 14-14 at the charity stripe. The Bulldogs attempted 39 free throws on the night, sinking 31 (to 8-16 for the Redhawks). Remarkably, Seattle shot 47% for the game to FSU's 37%.

Defend the house. Louisiana Tech did just that and more in taking down San Jose State University 75-49. 6-foot-9 senior Romario Souza went for a career-high 19 points plus a tied-for-the-team-lead eight rebounds. Raheem Appleby went for 17 markers with Trevor Gaskins adding 16. The shooting percentages: 53% for the Bulldogs to 35% for the Spartans. Wil Carter was the only SJSU player to show up offensively as he scored 17 points.

You don't have to be kind just logical. That's all we ask.
