Elsewhere In College Basketball...
This image was lost some time after publication. • Alabama 68, Kentucky 64. Kentucky getting slapped around is becoming kind of a tradition here on Saturdays at Deadspin. Sorry, 'Cats fans. I didn't mean for it to be that way. Alabama, Kansas, Indiana... next Saturday, it's Georgia's turn.
• Miami 81, #20 North Carolina 70. And Miami's become kinda like the anti-Kentucky here on Deadspin weekends. Last week, they beat #12 Maryland. This week, it's #20 UNC that gets a face full of Guillermo "Diaz Nuts."
• #1 Duke 87, Clemson 77. Vernon Hamilton played this game with a band-aid on his forehead. Why? As it turns out, he jammed a fork into his forehead before the game. Well, of course he did.
