College basketball is really more wide open than any other year imo. I could see multiple 8 or 9 seeds making it to the 2nd weekend.

Both their losses are at home....

I get Alabama. But 12-9 Temple?
 
They made a couple of clutch blocks in the last few seconds to seal it.
 
And we don't even have any murderers on our roster.

On top of that, Houston and Rutgers were on the road (Rutgers neutral site), while Wagner and Maryland-Eastern Shore were at home. Go figure.
In Rutgers defense, they didn’t have McConnell or Mulcahy in that game. Those two are a huge part of what makes Rutgers go.
 
Temple beat Houston yesterday without Reynolds (been out all this month).
Is that a Temple player? Either way, I'm not trying to take away from their win yesterday. It was huge, and us Purdue fans thank you.

But Rutgers is an entirely different animal with those two out. They're defined by their length defensively and ability to go at mis-matches offensively, and those two are what drives that.

Reynolds is our 6'10" post player who was a monster versus Rutgers, but has been out with a fractured thumb.
