About last night:

Michigan State 63, Wisconsin 60 in OT: I think I know the rules but this was a new one to me. Which clock is the official clock? As it turns out, the one attached to the backboard.

Wisconsin’s Ryan Evans heaved up a desperation 3-pointer that banked in as the buzzer sounded. It would have sent the game to a second overtime. The officials had to watch a replay to determine if he had gotten it off in time and ESPN had outstanding camera angles.

But here was the problem. The scoreboard above the stands behind the basket had two-tenths of a second on it when the ball left Evans’ hand. The scoreboard attached to the backboard was at zero and the red light around the backboard was lit before it left his hand. Therefore, no basket. Michigan State wins.

The referee issued a statement after the game explaining that the rule is the clock on the backboard is the one they use in determining the end of the game. As of last night, no one was sure why there was a discrepancy. Here’s some good coverage from the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. Here's the ESPN highlights.

Seton Hall 75, UConn 63: It’s really official: the Hall is no longer wild and wacky, it’s just plan good at 13-2 after dismantling UConn in beautiful downtown Newark. This is the first time the Hall has beaten UConn since March 3, 2001 (11 games).

Fordham 60, Harvard 54: The downtrodden Rams are improved but this is a bad loss for Harvard. The Crimson will still win the Ivy League easily but this loss will cost them seeding position on Selection Sunday.

Missouri 87, Oklahoma 49: What a beating! The Tigers can look amazing at times. Coach Frank Haith was amazing himself: ‘‘I don’t know that we can play any better. ‘We played about as flawless a game as you can play.’’ Sounds like Belichick.

Ohio State 71, Nebraska 40: I guess Huskers fans can ask themselves, would we have taken a worse beating at Kansas if we were still in the Big 12? The Huskers were missing three key players because of injuries.

Alabama 73, Georgia Tech 48: No light at the end of the tunnel for Tech. Fans will just have to endure.

Kentucky 72, Arkansas Little Rock 51: What challenges are left for Bingo Long and the Traveling All-Stars? Maybe just games at Vandy Feb. 11 and at Florida March 4.

Oral Roberts 89, Oakland 80: A big road win. It still comes down to four days in March but Oral looks like it’s heading back to the NCAA tournament. Oakland had won 31 straight conference games at home.

Toledo 107, Indiana Northwest 43: For what purpose?

Western Michigan 72, Milwaukee 61: The Panthers, maybe still hurting from losing at Butler, fail to show up.
