Games of the Day

Gonzaga v. St. Mary's
Is St. Mary's in?  Does the return of Patty Mills make them look a lot better in the committee's eyes?  It won't matter if they knock off the Zags in Vegas tonight.  This should be a barn-burner.

Siena v. Niagara
The Saints are the favorite tonight, but a loss to Niagara shouldn't knock them out of tourney consideration.  I have them safely in at the moment, and Niagara (#51 RPI) is pretty damn solid in their own right.  I'm annoyed that this is on opposite Zag/Mary's instead of at 6pm so I could watch both in their entirety.

VCU v. George Mason, Chattanooga v. Charleston
Winner dances.  Plus, VCU/GMU is always a fun game.
